Corporations nor Avn souIless.


As there are good and bad men, SO
also there are good and bad corpora
tons Everything depends on the
management. Then again, men are
sometimes good and at other times
bad, and so are corporations. 1t is
said, corporations have no soul" It
is the duty Of the state to furnish all
corporations with a soul, and to say to
them, gentlemen, if you viii put q
conscience into your equipment all
right, but if you RreIunabIe to do so,
we viii put one in gratis" This would
be T cal clever on the part Of the state
and could be credited on the ledger to
improvements"
1t is interesting, however, to note the
instances Of corporations taking the
initiative, as in the case Of the Rock
Island railroad. This road has agreed
to transport % carloads Of corn to the

New-York. who appeared TO sustain Mayor Van
Wycks veto of the bill, and ex-Judge William N.
Cohen, who represented the Sanitary Disposal
Company.
Governor Roosevelt. in remarks which he ad-
dressed to Mr.. Butts, frankly said he thought the
city authorities at fault for not having i'm
proved the methods of garbage disposal, and also
for not having secured necessary authority from
the Legislatu e If the charter would not permit
them TO act. Mr.. Butts in reply asserted that
In his opinion the city did give the city
authorities ample power to improve the methods
of garbage disposal In the course of his speech
against the bill he said in part:

The city authorities, the Department of Street
Cleaning. the State Board of Health, the Board
of Health OF New-York, all opposed the bill

Mr.. Lancaster and Senator Wagner then spoke in
favor of the bill, the former saying that the ex-

and the latter that the nuisance intoerable to
a large number of people, and that the estimate
OF the cost Of establishing incinerating works,
which was one of the reasons for Mayor Van
Wycks veto, had been exaggerated Mr.. Lenahan
also made speech advocating the measure.

on the grounds Of the large amount of land needed
