DRIFT OF LARGE CITIES.

Chicago is inclining to municipal
ownership of public utilities more than
almost any other American city. Even
Toledo. with its communistic notions.
and Detroit with its socialistic mayor.
are in the wake of the Windy City in
this particular. Chicago proposes TO
follow up its venture in municipal cleo
tric lighting with q municipal teIe-
phone system. and when the present
street car franchises expire within the
next few years there is a growing sen
timent IN favor of adding street rail-
ways 10 the city's possessions.
The question of municipal ownership
is Comparatively new in this country
although it has been discussed many
years.
In Europe the advantage of such a
policy is pretty generally ac-
knoWledged, while Germany and Great
Britain have come TO regard their de-
velopments along this line as leading
evidences Of their modern progress. All
German cities own and operate their
own waterworks. which net an annual
profit to the public treasury. In 1870
Great Britain passed the general tram
way act, which empowered municipal
tiles to own and control street railways.
In thirty years the towns and cities
have acquired possession until they
own and operate one-third of the to-
tai mileage Of that country. As fast
as the franchises expire the cities ar
range to take control.

of Oregon and Washington. This, with
the Gadsden purchase from Mexico in
1853 of a strip lying south of Arizona

of the United States as they still re-

While the ratification Of the Mexican

TRIPLES!

Our cars are no better-in themselves
than the ears of other lines It is
what is INSIDE them that makes them
more comfortable.
For instance: The seats in our re-
Ginning chair cars are provided with
linen head pieces-clean and cool. Our
dining cars have electric fans. and are
gorgeously decorated with flowers. In
every car is a thermometer. which the
porter constantly consuIts in order to
keep the temperature of his car as
nearly uniform as possible.
By themselves, these things are tri-
fies. but the sum total of them goes a

likewise with the nominee of the free

tricked and insuIted by the effort to
force them to vote for lifelong Dem

The Wilmot prOviso had dealt blow
to national politics which was ulti-

ty permanently, to kill the Wing party
outright and to create Gin 1866 a new
Republican party. But all this could
not have been accomplished without
the lamentable failure OF the Wings in

from the blackened, twisted ruins Of
the old hall. AS an example Of what
civic pride can accomplish it is prob
ably unequaled.
Not for a moment did the burning Of
the convention hall interrupt the prep
arations Of Kansas City for receiving
the convention and entertaining the
delegates. The total hotel capacity Of
Kansas City is less than 10000. The
four principal notes.-the Midland, the
Coates, the Baltimore and the Centrop-
olis-can accommodate from LOO to
1,500 each and only under great pres
sure.
But from the first 1t was seen that
this must be a boarding house conven-
ton. So the committee on public COM
fort went to work. The city was di-
vtded into 240 districts, and to each
was assigned a precinct committee
man. Each committeeman has can
vassed his district for boarding house
accommodations. All these statistics
have been compiled, classified and ar
ranged.

serve admirably for headquarters for
them.
Chairman Jones of Arkansas will oc-
cupy the handsomest suit in Kansas
City during the convention. 1t is the
bridal suit at the Baltimore and con-
sists of bedroom and parlor, connected,
with bathroom between. There is lit
tie suggestion Of "Jeffersonian simple
ity" in the silk draped walls, the cut
Observation-Disclosures, the onyx bathroom,
the velvet carpets and mahogany fur
niture. "But Pm not running for pres
ident," said Chairman Jones when he
engaged the suit, "and I've got the
price,"
John r. Mclean is evidently prepar-
Ing to bring friend or two to the con-
vention with him, for he has engaged
three bedrooms, besides a large parlor
for headquarters. 1t Is limited that one
of the rooms Is intended for the admi-
raj of the navy and that the Mclean
headquarters will house presidential

Fourth Of July celebrations ever seen
west Of the Mississippi. The celebra-
ton will begin on the night before the
Fourth with Big torchlight process
sion. There will be brass bands by the
score and fireworks by the ton.
The next day there will be a grand
barbecue in one Of the parks; a free
open air vaudeville show in another
and concerts in the public squares.
Other amusements will be furnished,
for 1t is the intention of Kansas City
to entertain her guests to the best of
her ability.
1t is going to be an immense under
taking. Sections of four states are to
empty their population into the con-
vention city. Special trains will pour
in on half dozen different railroad
lines. Across the prairies will come
thousands in wagons. This part of the
west has never had a national political
convention before and the folks do not
intend to miss the opportunity.
Convention week will be made holi.
day week. The air will fairly tremble
with politics and patriotism. It is a
combination which always results in
enthusiasm and excitement The
party leaders, who have planned things
thus, believe that the Democratic ma.
tional convention Of 1900 will be the
greatest ever held.

: THE NATIONALS =?
/ DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION i
s AT KANSAS CITY. :;
8 BY Alfred R. Rowley =;


For the first time in our politica! his
I tory a national convention is to be held
west of the Mississippi valley. The
Democratic party has been in existence
since 1882 and during that time has
held Is n9fional conventions, but only
pm the tYo occasions, when they met
IN st. Eouis, have its delegates gone
westN6f the Father of Waters. This
yeaG however, the men who are to
h0kne the Democratic leader for the
1fesidential contest Of 1900 will gather
Hn Kansas City.
Perhaps there is some subtle sig
niicance in the fact that the star Of
Democracy appears to be taking it's
I waySwestward. The more obvious rea-
son'is that the people Of Kansas City
were determined to secure the conven-
4 ton and that they succeeded. Their
terms included the offer Of fine con.
vention hall, the adequate entertain.
ment of the national Democratic com.
imittee and the payment of $4,000 in
cash.
The convention will begin en- July 4
That is an unusual date, but Chairman
Jones and his fellow committeeman
give good reasons for making the
T choice. These reasons, of course, are
political.
In{assuming the burden Of nationa
Z convention Kansas City took boli
step. It was audacious. This new
metropolis on the Kaw has popula
zion Of only. little more than 100000

in an unusual degree. If you do not
believe this, listen to the story of how
this wide awake and comparatively lit
tie city of 100000 population happened
to have the second largest auditorium
in the country. The largest, OF course,
is Madison Square Garden. in New
York city; but, by the way, be careful
not to say so in Kansas City. On the
banks Of the kaw they admit no such
thing.
The people of Kansas City, in the
liberal sense of the term, built and own
the big convention hall. The stock is
held by all sorts and conditions Of peo-
pie, from millionaires to bootblacks.
There are few citizens who do not hold
at least one share. To make up the
$3.50, 900 which it cost went the pennies
of the poor as well as the dollars of the
rich.
The idea of great hall suitable to
hold oil sorts of gatherings came about
through the annual ball Of the Priests
of Pallas, which in 1897 had far out
grown it's quarters. This ball was the
annual "event" in Kansas City and al
ways occurred during the fall festivi-
ties. 1t was attended by the best peo-
pie of the city and many from neigh
boring towns. 1t came to the point of
giving up this enjoyable event or find
ing a place large enough to hold it,
and with this idea in mind the Com
mercial club took the matter up.
The first discussion brought out the

see this ambition realized when the IRE
occurred. For a moment, when the
people of Kansas City saw in flames
the hall which had been their pride,
they were dismayed. But they soon re-
covered.
When the fire began, members of the
directory of the convention building
were lunching at the. Kansas City club,
near by. They hurried to the scene.
Men stopped them at every step with
subscriptions toward the rebuilding Of
the hall. Street railway employees
shouted to them from their cars: "Put
me down for So! Here's my NUMBER"
pointing to their caps. Policemen,
street sweepers and messenger boys
did the same.
Before the building was destroyed
William R. Nelson, proprietor Of the
Kansas City Star, had subscribed So
600 to the rebuilding fund. Walter II.
Holmes and w. B. Thayer contributed
like amounts next day. By 3 o'clock,
less than two hours after the fire, the
directors had met the crisis by decid-
| ing the three all important questions
that convention hall should be rebuilt;
that it should be as nearly fireproof as
possible; that it should be rebuilt in
, time for the national Democratic con-
vention.
When convention hall burned, the
company had $4,000 cash in bank. By
the evening Of that day this amount
had grown to $16,23O. On Thursday
the next day, mass meeting was held
and the amount grew to SAC, 900 by vol.
j untary subscriptions. Another mass
meeting was held on Saturday, and the
subscriptions grew to $50, $50.
The insurance companies waived all
; opportunities for delay and their rights
to discount for prepayment and agreed
to pay $15O,05O at once The directory
sold the ruins of the steel structure Il
junk dealer for $4,000. With the casl
in bank and the popular subscriptions
which within week had grown t.
$1,000, the directory had a total Of
$23605O.
The plan of the new hall is practical
ly a duplicate of the one that was de
stroyed. An important difference Ii
