MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP.

has been in favor of municipal owner
ship of street railway and other fran
chise5 for semi-public corporations.
While there are some honest advocates
of municipal ownership, many of those
who favor it are CT the Croker stripe
politicians who get rich off the lost CT
politics. It is because Crokerism IS
permitted to flourish in American cities
that thoughtful people are opposed 70
municipal ownership. Suppose all the
street railways in Greater New York,
as we'll as the telephone, lighting,
heating and water companies were
under municipal ownership and con
troll and a man like Croker were ct
the head of the party in power. Can
anybody estimate the influence fer evil
which the machine that could be built
would exercise? Every position in the
service o. all these companies would
be given to a politician CT the dor1i-
mart party. and well drilled and dis
ciplined political army would be or

SUFFRAGE IN THE SOUTH.

The disfrarchisement of negro vot-
ers in some Of the southern states by
/ the establishment CT educational tests
is likely to lead to an effort to restrict
the representation CT such states in
congress, under the provisions Of tha
fourteenth amendment, in proportion
to the number CT disqualified voters.
The disqualification is not absolute.
The negro may get the light to vote
by qualifying himself; but the disqual-
ificatfon viii. perhaps, be permanently
effective.
1t is to be regretted that the disqual-
ff1catfcn Of ignorant vct5rs which
southern states like Mississippi South
Carolina and Louisiana have been
compelled to adopt in self protection
should not be also adopted in every
Northern state. It would offer sOlu-

RULE OF THE MAJORITY.

Before we leave Mr. MoTley's speech
we desire to deal with one more point.
When YOUR children ask you; he says,
/ what the war is about, and why you
are killing men, what is your answer
going to be? is it to. be the franchise,
or paramountcy, or the price of dyna-
mite. or what? We do not think that
| there need be much difficulty as to the
answer. If war comes we shall be
/ fighting to make the Beers yield
share in the government to the major
ity of the inhabitants CT a country to
whose inhabitants, without restriction,
we intrusted s1lf government und15-
republican ferns, and because their re
fusal to emancipate the Out.anders and
to establish a joint and reasonable
form of government throws all South
Africa into confusion, and renders it
impossible for Dutch and English TO
liva together in peace and amity. That
is an answer which no Englishman
need be afraid tc give when he is ask
ed what the war is about. He may
give it with as good a conscience as
the New Highlander gave his. answer
when he was asked why he was soak
ing the fields and forests of Virginia

Mr. Morley, but do not say to o2e race: !
you are to h at the tsp and the other

no better policy. We dc not want the
least trace Of dominance for one race, 4

A HAY PALACE.

Some one has suggested that Phoe-
nix build a hay palace. Eastern and
northern cities have their ice palaces
and corn palaces. Here the principal
crop is hay. Nothing would advertise
it more than a palace built CT it.
Then the idea is original and if sue
cessfully carried out would attract
attention to Phoenix. In tie event of
an autumn carnival the hay palace
could be made one of the chief at
fractions by having it filed with
products of the valley. In this way
it would serve double purpose ana
