Williams, son of Jno. w. Williams of
Dodgeville, and his two partners who
were on their way to klondile over

destructive avalanche of snow which
buried SO many people ON the Sd of
April. They had pitched their tents
near each other and were preparing
their fires, and while one of the party
was shaving II stick with his knife, the
fearful body of snow came upon them,
and the stick in the hands of the one
using it, fortunately served to shore
up his tent and prevent him from be-
ing crushed, and with his knife he cut
his way through the tent and then dug
out through the snow and at once
began assisting his comrades until
they all got out safely, though one
was nearly sutfocatcd by the smoke
before he was reached, Among the
party they were with, five were taken
out alive and twelve dead. The total
number of deaths from the casualty
aggregated about 60.

A JUST DECISION.

The decision of the supreme court OF
Illinois in upholding the constitutions
ality of the Torreus land title act is IN
harmony with the rational and expand
ing idea that the purpose of courts is
to confirm legislation which is sensible
and bene6cient, rather than annul it
by placing undue stress on trivial tech
nicalities. Kansas City Star
The Torrens land title system
should be adopted in every state
IN the Union. When once, by
due process of law, the title is es-
tablished in the rightful owner
he rests secure in his holdings as
nothing can dispossess him.
Deeds of transfer and mortgages
to secure loans can be made read
lily and quickly without any ex-
pense of abstracts of title or even
attorney fees. The system does
away with a vast amount of liti-
CATION, and among those who
have become acquainted with its
provisions and workings none ex-
cept lawyers and abstract of title
men oppose it.
The Mena star., 1898-11-02

So universal is the sentiment
among the people in favor of mu-
nicipal ownership of public utili-
ties, such as water works, electric
lighting plants, ETC., that it is
becoming hard for private cor
porations to secure franchises.
1t has been demonstrated beyond
question that, when properly
managed, a city can build and OPP
crate its own works and without
paying any more for service or in
taxes than would have to be paid
to a private corporation, can re-
ceive better service, pay the cost
of construction and own the plant
free in twenty years, the usual
term for which bonds are issued.
When a city puts in plant it has
control and can make such regu-
lations and changes as the people
may demand, but when a private
corporation owns the plant it
makes its own regulations and
generally gives such service as it
pleases so long as it complies
with the contract" made at
a previous date when perhaps
neither party knew what would
be needed when the city grew to
greater PROPORTIONS.

THE PEOPLE AWAKE.

Harrison Van Duync in his an
nual address before the American
Society of Municipal Improve
ment at Washington recently,
among other good things OK
pressed himself as follows:
The people are thoroughly awake
regarding this Improvement subject
now. and franchises are no longer CIV
en- away, though as result OF
bribery and corruption cities generally
receive but a small part OF what
should be obtained for them. The
companies which own public fran
chiscs have shrewdly hidden the I'M
mense profits obtained by issuing great
amounts of capital stock in excess OF
the money actually invested, and by
paying moderate rate of dividend
and interest on this er-capataliza-
tion they made it appear that they are
realizing only fair returns.
