Republicans. who feared the election OF
Harlan, Independent. The Democrats also
aided the Republican politicians who sepa-
rated from the regular organization after

TugweIi waited on the governor today to
remind him of this promise While the
governor acknowledged having written the

his claim. for the reason that Tugwell
took action last winter in the legislature

A CIrY's STEP BACKWARD.

While the tendency in most cities is
TO increase their ownership of public
works and regard this as an indication
of progress. Philadelphia is rejoicing
nj what. In this view of the matter.
would be generally considered retro
gression. After owning and operating
It's gas plant for some time. the council
has decided 10 lease 1t to a private cor
poration.
Commenting upon this. the Philadel-
phia Times says: 1.-THE lease OF the
gas works will eliminate one of the
most demoralizing elements of our
political system: will give our people
good gas instead OF bad gas: will give
the city large profits instead OF large
loss in the supply OF gas: and will as
sure tho complete repair and improve
ment OF cur gas plant without cost TO
the city: while the treasury will be
largely enriched at once by the trans
fer of the works to the lessees. and al
drain on the taxpayers for the gas de-
partment will cease"
Ii does not follow because phiiadel-
phia has not made n success Of its
ownership that the principle OF public
ownership Is wrong II is only I'M
por,ant as showing that something
more than mere ownership is needed.
Whether in private or public hands, a
gas plant. water system, or electric
lighting works must be managed capa-
hly or IL will be a failure. There is no
doubt that the gas supply department
ot the Philadelphia government has
been q scandal 20 that city. but this
may be due Ia the notorious causes
which have brought discredit 10 the
municipality in other respects.
Not only has the city been run by
political ring. but the people have been
