Mr.. N. Fl. Bale of New Windsor spent
Monday night with US. He tells us that the
electric plant in that town gives them lighted
streets at but very slight advance OF cost if
any, atoye that of gasoline, which the town
had been using. They have storage bat
terry and by charging it, it is necessary to
run the engine but three to four hours dur
ing the twenty.four and have light all night.
Our people should look this matter up;
every store in New Windsor except one is
lighted electrically and number of private
houses. This is much larger town and the
project ought to be feasible here.

looking this way and we may reasonably
hope to be in telephone connection with
Frederick City and other sections of the
county within a few months. Telephone
lines cannot be built except upon reasonable
promise of fair revenue and as the telephone
is a splendid convenience in business, it Is
to be hoped that sufficient number of sub.
scribers may be secured here to warrant the
extension of the line in this direction. 1t Is
likely that some one will wait upon our
people shortly with business proposition
and we hope it will be of a character that
will receive the necessary acceptsnces.

Record

SOME ROAD FIGUREs.-We are credibly
informed that when Mr. Nelson Wilhide
went before the Board of County Commits
sioners on Saturday last. to settle his account
as one of the supervisors from this locality,
the bill which he presented, amounting to
about $3.50. brought forth from President
Herman some very severe structures upon
Mr., Wilhide in this particular matter and
upon this section generally,
In the first place Mr.. Wilhides account
covered first the sig per mile for the miles;
second, two machinist and blacksmith bills
for repairs to county stone crusher, and
third, the charge for use of engine in crush
ing stone on the road of another supervisor,
these figures amounting to about $l75, lcav.
ing Mr.. Wilhides actual bill about $275.
This also covered work on several bridges.
Now We are always slow to criticisc The
acts and words Of public officers, especially
those of a county commissioner, for we re.
alize how difficult 1t is to fill that office to
the satisfaction of everybody, but when this
District is cbargedwilh getting too much mon
ey for roads, we being c0gnizant of the fol,
lowing facts, feel ii our bounden duty to call
public attention to Mr.. Horman's statement.
Mr. Norman is from Urbana District let
us see how the account stands as between
Urbana District and the county on the one
hand and Mechanlcstown district and the
county, on the other hand.
District miles road per mile total
Urbana 83 SIC 996
Mechanicstown 56 10 672
assess't road tax total
Urbana S752,837 9S 1877. 70

pays receives
Urbana 1879 996 DR. 25921
Mechanics't 885.76 872 Or 213 70
Now these figures say this: that if Mechan.
icstown District secured erery gear an extra
road appropriation of $21376 it wonld re-.
ceive back exactly what 1T pays into the
county treasury, while if Urbana District
was put upon the same even Keel, that dis.
trict would have $25821 less every year. to
spend on its roads, or to put it in still differ
ent shape Mechanicstown District presents
the county annually with $213.76 for road
purposes, while the county presents Urbana
District annually with $25S21
Better drop that stone, Mr.. Norman; that
domlcile of yours is built of hard, brittle,
transparent substance, that is formed by
fusing sllicious matter with fixed alkalies.

EXJUDGE GARY ON TRUSTS.
WHAT HE SAYS AS TO INDUSTRIAL COM
BINATIoNs AND THEIR RELATIONS
TO THE PUBLIC.

Ex-Judge Gary. president Of the Federal Steel
Company. talked yesterday about the new indus
trial combinations and their relation to the public.
While some of the large corporations formed by
consolidation might be properly regarded monop-
olies. he said, the designation misleading and
unjust applied to many others-his own COM
pany, for example. which did consolidate any
competing companies or interests, and had and de-
sired monopoly in any branch of business. The
effort of the Federal Steel Company, he continued,
was. by controlling abundance of iron ore, coal
and coke and manufactures for their conversion.
well OF transportation. to manu-
facure and deliver the largest quantities of finished
products at the lowest cost. On these lines 1t hoped
to be successful and to avoid public private
antagonism.
Safety for legitimate Industrial combinations of
this class Judge Gary conceives to lie In publicity
and full and free discussion He continued as
quoted:
Enforced publicity as to the affairs of industrial
corporations be obtained by the passage of
suitable State laws. The investor would then be
enlightened as to the company's exact financial
standing. the employe could not unjustly suspect
his employers of paying him unfair wages, and
whether laws TO restraint of trade have been in
fringed.
The question of trusts the question OF monop-
olies is not political party question in any sense
nounced will pronounce in favor of monop-
olies which may create unreasonable prices to the
sentiment of the people and the spirit of the laws
against them.
The question now prominently before the people
IS not how to prevent the aggregation or consoNda-
ton Of capital but how to absolutely secure TO the
public immunity from abuse which may result de-
pending upon management or other causes.
