Some idea of the value of a gas
franchise in large city may be gain
ed by an item of news that comes from
Philadelphia. About two years ago
that city leased it's gas plant to a COM
pany for a period of thirty years,
against the advice Of many good cit
izens who said the profits to the COM
pany would be enormous. 1t now de-
velops that these objections were well
founded, as the price of the gas COM
panys stock. has advanced from 7OB
to 16S, an advance of over >$970O a
share. AS there are 100000 shares this
represents a total increase of $29,361,-
900 in the value of the stock. In other
words, the city government of Phila-
delphia made the corporation a clean
present of over s25, 100000. Are fran
chiseS worth anything?

One cannot but admire the spirit
shown by the opposing generals in
South Africa. General Jouhert, of the
Boer forces, is showing himself to be
one of the greatest tacticians Of the
century, just as his regard for the
British wounded and his pleas for
peace are showing him to be a merci-
full man and a statesman. General
White of the British army, on the
other hand, is not less to be admired.
His prompt acknowledgement of Jou-
bert's services to the British wound
ed, and his equally prompt acceptance
Of all the responsibility for the loss of
the regiments captured by the Beers,
show him to be both brave and just.
The pity of it all is that such men
should be fighting each other in a war
instigated by Chamberlain and Cecil
Rhodes.

With the At Bora Bridge contract af-
fair fresh in mind, in which American
bridge builders succeeded in underbid-
ding Englishmen in building a bridge
in Africa, the success of American
electrical and cable railroad builders
in securing all the contracts for sup
plying and laying the conduits and for
supplying the cable for the new Glas-
gov municipal railways, adds another
feather to the cap Of the American
manufacturer. The whole cost will be
about $15,0O0,O0o. 1t seems to be ac-
cepted at least that the English estab-
lishments cannot compete with those
on this side in making and assembling
the items of modern rapid transit
