over operating expenses. Furthermore. the
city must create a sinking fund with which
TO redeem the bonds at the end Of thirty
years To purchase the plant at that price
a S-cent fare would seem TO be inadequate.
The Pingree commission would pay $1,000
900 regardless of the fact that the plant
could be duplicated for about half that
mount.
1t IS evident that Mr.. johnson has demon
strated that municipal ownership by pur-
chase is impracticable and that he has
adroitly used the Governor to prove that
fact. Governor Pingree's scheme has gone
to pieces. and his enemies must be elated
over his failure. which Johnson has made
humiliating because he has overreached
him. The owners will continue to run the
property and will continue to use the fran
chises. for which they have paid nothing and
ask much, and TO hold and receive the
profits of the millions of dollars invested
in the street railways. upon which they do
not pay a cent of tax.

GOVERNOR PINGREE's FAILURE.

II now looks as II Tom L. johnson had
used the bumptious Governor Pingree to
show that municipal ownership of street
railways is quito impracticable. Governor
Pingree has been a n advocate of
such ownership and the enemy of johnson
as the street-railway magnate. The Gov
ernor had made things unpleasant for the
street-railway people, and IL was his pur-
pose TO make them more so by agitating
his hobby of municipal ownership. Mr..
Johnson saw this and set himself TO work
the clustering statesman. He represented
that he desired TO help work out the prob
lem of municipal ownership and manage
ment Of street railways. He expressed the
opinion that under such management the
people could ride without cost as their mails
were carried. Governor Pingree rose to the
Johnson bait and pushed through the Legis-
lature a bill authorizing a commission 10
purchase the Detroit street railways. The
Governor. who has sought to be the Pooh
Bah Of Michigan by attempting to hold the
Offices OF mayor of Detroit and Governor
OF the State. was made one of the COM
missioners TO negotiate the purchase under
the Pingree law. The work was begun.
Johnson figured that the plant Is worth
ST.. 5Oo,0o. which Is s., 500. 600 more than the
Pingree commission would pay. Johnson
has stood out and now the deal is declared
off. The street-railway companies have sls.-
100000 OF bonds outstanding. They have
franchises for which they have paid the
city nothing. some of which do not expire
for several years, but which they put a
price upon when the city desires TO obtain
control of them. To cover these bonds. the
value of the property, including the fran
chises. Mr.. Johnson wants ST.. $4,000 In A.
percent. bonds based upon a thirty years
franchise and secured by a mortgage upon
all the property. To pay the interest on the
bonds the roads must earn 100000 annually

Magazine.

He has been. up to this time. that most
desirable figure in political life. a well-in-
tentioned and perfectly fearless man. Rath-
er a crude thinker Inc a student or many
unimportant problems. he has seemingly
neglected the most important-those of a So
cial order. Strong of prejudice. but appar-
emily desiring the right. he has been forgiven
for his blunders almost as rapidly as they
have been made.
A warm admirer. who is one of those who
feel just a little anxiety about his future,
recently said of him: you are growing
cautious and hesitating. Do not forget that
you have made yourself what you are by
running yourself. over and over and over
again you have ruined yourself entirely and
completely. and each time 1t has presently
been discovered that you have In some I'M
accountable way grown still stronger in the
public estimation. You have no strength
but your integrity. Once begin to be a poll
tician in its strictest sense. a schemer. a
planner, a man who takes thought for his
political future. and the public will drop
away from you in disgust. Be fearless.
straightforward. determined for the public
interest and willing 60 incur the errnity OF
politicians when the good Of the public Is
at stake. and there IS no power In political
combinatons that can place you N retire

TO WED AN EARL.
Miss Daisy Letter Said to Have Made
a Brilliant Match.

WASHINGTON. May "A rumor that
Miss Daisy Letter Is engaged TO the young
Earl of suffolk was received in Washington
with much interest. Levi z. Letter. Miss
Letters father, has been in the city for sew
eral days attending to his large real estate
holdings here. Mr.. Letter had not heard any
thing from his daughter concerning this in
teresting rumor. and he would not. there
fore, either affirm or deny 1t. Mrs. Letter Is
expected here some time next week. She
will remain for about a week and will then
go to Chicago. IT is known among the inti-
mates of Miss Letter that the Earl OF
Suffolk has been a constant attendant since
her arrival at Simla, where the viceroy's
court is now located. Her friends also be-
lieve ,hat If the earl proposes he will be
accepted, since the third daughter of the
Chicago millionaire is quoted as saying be-
fore her departure for the East that she
would return the bride Of an English noble
man.
The Earl of Suffolk is quite young. being
only twenty-three- He but lately succeeded
to the title. He belongs to the younger
branch of the famous Howard family, OF
which the Duke OF Norfolk is the head. His
guished in the British peerage. The first
counts of Norfolk date from the feudal
Anglo-Saxon lords holding dominion In $50.
They became first dukes of the realm and
earls-n arshal in 1514. The match is consid-
cred here much more brilliant in point OF
lineage than that of Miss Mary Letter, now

1t has remained for the managers Of the
Kansas state fair to open a new and lucra-
tive career to the homecoming heroes of
Manila The offer cabled to General Funs-
ton that he and a p of the Twentieth
Kansas would be paid 81, 900 If they would
repeat their swimming act and attack upon
the Filipinos at the fair to be held in
Wichita in September, provided they are
mustered out in time. has great possibilities.
The plan is to arrange a sham battle, to be
participated in by a colored company Of
the Twenty-third Kansas as Filipinos,
Funston and his men TO cross the Arkansas
as they did the Bagbag and disperse the
enemy. Naturally this will attract a great
crowd. and the managers will be more than
reimbursed for their outlay. The success
OF the Wichita affair will cause the heroes
TO be in demand elsewhere, and during the
early fall months they can easily accumu-
late enough funds TO enable them to sp4nd
the winetr outside of Kansas. The effete
East may sneer at this form Of entertain
ment, but. If so. it will be the sheer of
envy. Wichita, however. is not narrow in
its ideas. 1t is perfectly willing for the sons
OF Kansas to go to the Eastern shore after
the Kansas fair is over and show the ma
tives how the Bagbag was crossed-a feat
several degrees more difficult than swim
ming the H%ellespont to greet a ladyloye.
And they will offer no objections if the
New Workers borrow the idea and invite
Admiral Dewey. for suitable compensation,
to take a squadron and repeat the Manila
maneuvers in New York harbor. Sampson.
too. might be asked to show what he would
have done il be had been at Santiago when
Cervera came out. And Mr.. Alger's friends
would thrill with pride If a company of dar-
ing and seasoned veters S could be per-
suaded TO tackle canned Jast' beef in
public view. Considering this Kansas plan
let no one say Americans do not know
what to do with their heroes.
