SOME OF THE RIDDLES.

In 1894 there were 21O railroads, en-
bracing 3G,G10 miles, or twenty per
cent Of thc ire mileage of the coun-
try. in the hands of receivers. But
at the beginning of this year there
" ere only 50 roads in the hands Of the
courts, operating 10,To7 miles.
These figures reveal The TACT that
III bankrupt railroads have been talk
Ell care Of by 4 kindly government,
put once more on 4 paying basis, and
courteously handed back to the capt.
talists to be squeezed dry once more.
Such sympathetic paternalisn!
Such watchful care over unfortunate
misunderstanding capitalists! Such
devotion to the welfare and regard for
the feeling Of monopo!ists!
1 believe that when a railroad falls
into the hands of receiver it should
at once be made government road.
These government roads should reduce
he freight rates and passenger fares
until gradually every other road
would be unable to compete with
them, and would become the property
Of the nation.
Already at least so per cent of the
railroads should belong to the people.
This method would save the nation
from paying an enormous price for
the railroads and would be perfectly
in harmony with the methods employ
ed by the railroad corporations.
If Jay Gould and Jim Hill and J..
Pierpont Morgan had the legal right
tc cut rates and ruin railroad, in
order to absorb it, why does the same
right not belong to the nation?
If the rich corporations are allowed
to knock down and swallow the poor
er ones, why may not the government
also play the game of grab?
If the railroads have never cared
for the wishes or the welfare Of the
people why should the people be so
careful of the wishes and welfare Of
the railroads?
1t is also appropriate to ask why
the government should put 4 fallen
capitalist on his feet, while it keeps
Il fallen workingman in the mire.
II Il bankrupt railroad is put in the
hospital, and sent back to its owner
cured and healthy, why are there no
hospitals for the bankrupt farms?
Why should government which is
supposed to represent the whole peo-
pie grant special favcrs to the
wealthy. while it has no time to con-
slider the necessities Of the poor?
If it can provide profits for capital
lists, why can't it provide wages for
the unemployed:
These are some Of t he riddles that
he statesmen Of today must answer
if they do not wish to be thrown rude
w OUT of office by an awakened and
indignant nat ion.-Ilerbert W. Casson
in Coming Nation.

Legislature Approves
san Francisco will Have
New Charter Similar TO the
One Rejected by Duluth.

~ BEGINNING with the first Of the
y coming year San Francisco will
come under the government OF
Il new charter, which it is hoped will
do away with many Of the evils from
which that city has suffered in the
past. This charter received the sane
tion Of Il majority of the voters OF the
city at a special election held last
May. and has now been approved by
the legislature, but as has been stated
does not 90 into effect until 1900.
When the legislature gave it's sanction
to the document in question it
brought to close long and bitter
struggle on the part Of the citizens OF
San Francisco for home rule and for
better municipal government. The
fight was conducted by the merchants
association and the charter itself was
brought into being by a committee of
one hundred leading citizens. selected
through that same authority.
| One Of the worst evils in the old
system was the power of governor of
the state to fill all the vacancies
in the local police, park and fir ecom-
missions. The opportunity thus af'
ror1cd for some outsider to interfere
! in local affairs. not only caused a
great deal Of dissatisfaction, but the
opponents Of the system did not fail to
assert that whenever the governor eN-
! crcised his appointive power, corrnp-
tion followed. Under the new charter
the municipal government is entirely
divorced from that of the state at
large and the power to name all the
commissions is placed in the hands of
the mayor. The fee system is also
abolished and all the city officers are
to work under fixed salaries, thereby
doing away with another prolific
source of corruption.
10 the general student of municipal
affairs, however, the most interesting
feature Of this document is that per-
tanning to the disposition of fran
chises. In the future these franchises
are to be sold to the highest bidder
and their terms may not be more
than twenty-five years. In addition to
these restrictions the holder is requir-
ed to pay to the city three per cent of
the gross proceeds during the first
five years Of the life of the franchise,
four per cent during the next ten
years, five per cent during the last ten
years, and there are a number OF
other equally valuable conditions.
The gentlemen VINO had the franz
ing Of the charter in hand did not fail
to recognize the value of the merit
system and it was adopted as one Of
the essentials in the formation of Il
model city government. A civil SER
vice commission consisting Of three
members is provided for and they APP
point the chief examiner. The aim is
to have the examinations practical
tests Of the fitness Of the applicants
for the positions they desire to hold
and a special effort seems to have been
made to secure the honesty Of all
these tests.
| The charter seems to be an eXempli-
fcution Of the best modern thought
along the lines Of municipal govern
ment and it should bring Il decided re-
lief to Il people who have suffered
previously from misgovernment in the
past. Its workings will be closely fol-
wonderful revolution now going on in
matters municipal.
