Public Utilities.

From the Syracuse Herald.
The spirit of municipal ownership
extends rapidly. Tt Is very likely to
be one of the most important issues
in coming municipal elections. The
successes won in western cities have
infused a new spirit into the pro-
gressive people elsewhere and the
doctrine Of the right and propriety
and wisdom of municipal control of
the public utilities has rapidly de-
-iopa1. a.
Tt is among coming things that the
corporation of the city of New York
shall own and operate it's gas plants,
and it's is evident that the movement
in this direction can not be checked
by applying hard names to it. The
terms Corporations" Octopus" and
other ugly names will not deter it.
1t is argued with force and plausi-
bility that municipal ownership viii
save the consumers large sums of
money; that many abuses and exnc-
tions of the private companies will be
done away with, and that large dis
tricts from which gas is new kept out
by reason of it's cost will become con-
sumers to mutual and manifest
benefit. With the introduction of
municipal ownership in all the large
cities there will be abolished all the
sources of the heaviest public scand-
al; better as well as cheaper service
will be rendered; and the people will
come into control of what justly and
properly is theirs.

The Japan Current.

Perhaps, after all, the Japan cur
rent. that played California false and
upset all climatic conditions here
abouts for two years past, will make
amends by returning to its old chan
mel and again use its influence to
bring the much needed rainfall.
There is report that the Japan cur
rent, which, by moving thousand
miles out of it's course, had caused
two dry winters in California, is
coming back again. L. W. Blinn,
the lumber dealer. who has many
vessels on the Pacific, says on this
subject: GA ship captain told me
that he had reason to know that the
Japan current is now flowing in a
course hundreds of miles further
south than it has flowed for years.
That is considered SO favorable a
sign that am confident we shall have
plenty of rain this winter. Tran

RUSSIAN THISTLE A FRIEND.
Properly Cut 1t Makes the
Finest Hay.

SeIDert. Col, Special to the Denver Times.
In 1893 the Russian thistle first
made it's appearance in Sherman
county, Kas., in fact. before many
knew what the strange looking weed
was. When it was found out what it
really was there was a wave of excite
ment, mingled with much concern
over it, and it was much talked about
at the evening gatherings at the store
in Edison, and all expressed a resolu-
4ion of fighting the pest the next
spring to exterminate it.
But there was one drawback to the
execution of this plan of extermina-
ton. The people of that vicinity
had nisca1culated the business to
which that country was adapted, and
instead of confning their efforts to
stock raising, they had wasted years
in the endeavor to transform that
buffalo grass range into an agricul-
tural region The abandoned claims
and ruins of adobe ehacks that dot
the country for miles around arc
strong proof of the futile efforts in
this direction, and the few inh abit-
ants that remain have become so
used to the relief cars that are side
tracked every fall for their benefit
that It has sapped their energies to
such an extent that they quit fight
ing Russian thistles and have not
energy enough left to leave the coun-
try OF change their mode of living,
and the fspest" grew and multiplied
unmoIested.
But this winter it has been de-
monstrated that the Russian thistle is
a friend in disguise, and is no more
considered as pest. 1t has been
found that it is easily killed out while
young Ia cultivated ground. and when
cut at the proper time makes fine
hay. When it has ripened and is
softened by melting snow cattle will
then eat it and fntten on the oily
seeds I have one COW that has not
had five pounds of hay thus far this
winter, and all the while the snow
was on in December she dug Rus
sian thistle out of the snow drifts and
gained in flesh and milk right along.
Thus the Russian thistle has been
robbed OF all its bristling terrors IN
this part of the country, and viii
henceforth be regarded as blessing
instead of pest.

Kansas Has Fewer Dependents Thar
Any State.

cerning the pauper population of the
state. He has received from 81
counties replies to his letters of in
quiry, and says:
'tThese returns convince me that
Kansas has fewer paupers than nny

Sixteen of the thirty-one counties
reporting have no poor houses.
Other counties report poor farms but
no inmates. 1t is noticeable that the
counties of the short grass region
report no poor houses. They are:
Barber, Clark, Ford, Cove, Gra-
ham, Grant, Kearney, Logan, Nor

Stevens, Trego, Wallace and Gray.
In the counties from which re
ports have thus far been received
there is an average of less than five
paupers to the county. The big
counties have not reported, but the
absence of pauper population in the
western part of the state in the coun
ties reporting reduces the average tc
