TOWN AND VICINITY.
The Milk in the COcOanut

Inc MIX III the iOcOdnut
The Baltimore NeOS, speaking of a
practical present of fifty millions by
the city to big corporation, asks
What will the new company own that is
worth the other $50 600 900?
The obvious answer is-a public franchise.
Who gave them this $50, 900 worth of
franchise?
The people.
Why did the people doit?
Because they neglected their business. be-
cause they never gave thought enough to
their own collective interests to guard them
as a private owner would have guarded a
possession of like value.
That Is what is the matter here.
a Mayor Of Frostburg contracted a
grudge against the gas company, the
latter having worsted him in a little
contest in court
When a chance came to get even,
he allowed competing company to
become five year monopolist of the
towns lighting business.
The effect of which is-the town is
paying the electric light company's
own rates for light, and taking that
company's word for all it is doing in
the way Of candle-power, etc.
The one item Of light, therefore,
eats up nearly one-third of the rev.
enues, and is still growing in cost.
There are two or three places in
town, moreover, where taxes upon the
property lit by an arc do not pay for its
light, much less for anything else it
gets from the town.
1t is upon territory of this sort the
company is pushing its ares.
1t takes all the taxes upon $l4 400
OF property to pay for an arc, and one
is pushed out where there is not $40 600
of that sum. On this the town eX-
ponds $llO more in five years than it
gets back.
Is it any wonder 1.-The boys" are al
ready hustling to ''hold on" to the
towns purse-strings?
Meanwhile, they are depending for
continued success upon the peoples
habit of "neglecting their ocn business"

No Childishness There

Repeal the law Would it be safe for the
pulp mill to do that? Would it be safe for
them to have the Potomac river above them
unprotected from similar poluters Cum
berand Aolepcndct.
Safe or not, the pulp-mill people
must take the chances.
In great measure they have taken
chances the people of Piedmont would
not take.
There is pollution. and lots of it.,
above the pulp mills-pollution so
vile that the people of Piedmont
skipped it, went up the Savage river
for water, and some are talking of 60
ing yet higher.
What Cumberland needs is people
of the Piedmont stripe-people who
buy and pay for good water, welcome
growth, and thus obtain both.
