Earrings stock was sold for $3,040,-

he fell into a palable inconsistency,
for control without ownership is as So
cialistic and more dangerously so,
tfan ownership with control.
He was equally unfortunate in his
citation of the case of the Philadelphia
gas works. That is the converse of his
proposition. 1t Is municipal ownership
without control. Moreover, the lease Of
this public property to private COM
pany is described as an outrageous
steal by corrupt board of supervisors
Other responsible parties offered mil
lions of dollars for the very same lease.
How far we ought to go in the pub
lie control Of public utilities is a doubt
full question. Some would stop at the
two great necessities of life, such as
water and light. Others would go far
ther.
The supreme court of the United
States, in the celebrated railroad and
elevator cases, decided in 1876, in af-
firming the right of public authority
to fix rates and tolls, said that ali
business clothed with public use"
might be so regulated, and that all
abuses of the right must be corrected
at the ballot
My idea of proper definition of a
public utility" is, those things which
are used by all, belong to all by
natural right, such as water falling
from the clouds; which require public
franchises to supply them, such as
rights of way, rights of digging up and
using streets, and the right of eminent
domain. Perhaps l might include the
things which, in extreme cases, have
been made the objects Of a burdensome
monopoly.
The people rejoiced when the supreme
court rendered the decision above refer
red to-said to have been a Granger
victory-and they went into the regulat-
ing business with a vengeance. l also
was believer in regulation, and intro
duced in the constitutional convention
the provision for the compulsory regula-
ton of water rates by the board of SUI
pervisors, and have been held respons-
ible for the gentleman terms the con-
tinual "nagging' of the Spring Valley
Water company. But my philosophy
taught me and experience has verified
it, that the regulation by public au-
thority of business owned by private
parties, of which the receipts go into
private pockets, is full Of vice. 1t awak-
ems the base passion of avarice; it de-
bauches our elections, and it pollutes
the foundation of justice. The regulat-
ing is done by agents nominally chosen
by the people. Very naturally. the peo-
pie interested in the receipts of the busl-
ness to be regulated go into politics.
They say they are driven into politics to
protect their business. They have no
other object or aim They stand ready
to combine forces with any body or
party to secure their end. They are
responsible for that portentious growth
in municipal government, the political
boss. They go into politics to control
the controllers. When the agents who

GREAT LABOR LEADER ADVISES
USE OF THE BALLOT.
Public Ovne rship. Secured by Intellt-
xent Use of the Ballot,
Only Remedy.

"You can never solve the social prob
lem by strikes; that is my opinion after
&C years experience in the movement"
said Peter Curran, chairman of the Gen
eral Federation of Trades Unions of
Great Britain, in speaking to the work
ingmen of Chicago today at a mass
meeting held under the auspices of the
Building Trades council.
Mr.. Curran came to this country as
the fraternal delegate from the British
Trades Union congress to the American
Federation of Labor convention and
represents about 100000 organized
workers in the United Kingdom. He is
president and organizer of the Gas
Workers and General Laborers Union
with Offices in London. Mr.. Curran
said:
After spending more money in Eng
land during the last 70 years on the in
dustrial battlefield than would keep 700
men legislating for our interests in the
houses of parliament, we have come to
the conclusion that We must have some
thing to say about the making of laws
ulder which we have to work, and we
must get away from the old orthodox
political parties If we hope to secure
what we seek.
THE only possibility of our securing
labor legislation is by sending our own
men to parliament, not as our masters
but as our servants. You never can
solve the social question by strikes,
never remedy the social evils of which
you complain by muscular force You
must do it through legislation. l am
not in favor of any laws that would
take away the right of the worker to
strike, but l am not an advocate Of
strikes.
There is only one solution, and that
is in common ownership, for SO long as
we allow the land and the machinery
OF the country to be held as private
monopOlies by the few, so Tong will we
have Industrial disputes and up
heavals." -.

the kidnapping trust are sorry they
didn't ask more. The millions above
cost of production that the meat trust
takes from the starving workmen OF
this nation is as much robbery under
threats of injury to the person as was
the $4,000 bagged by the kidnapers,
and everybody will in time see this.
Comrade Cudahy was obliged to buy
his boy back if he didn't want to-
price the kidnaper trust put on him, but
the comrade wasn't obliged to pay 1t
was a clear case of free bargain and
no compulsion about it; the K. T. Offer
ed the commodity for price, and the
customer could take it or leave it, OF
course the K. T. stole the commodity
and 1t wasn't theirs, but that is little
kink of the theorists that has to be
Strengthened out in practical business.
Nothing you do in business is stealing:
possession Of thing is evidence enough
lat it is yours. These are the straight
methods of the meat trust. A farmer
raises beef and parts with it as Mr..
Cudahy's price. The meat is valued by
the farmer at enough to give him and
his family a decent living and freedom
from care and worry. While Mr.. Cud
ahy knows this, he takes the meat
regardless, depending on the farmers
necessity of mere slave existence, to
compel him to part with the commodity.
The meat trust takes advantage of the
helpless public and seizes the meat and
then takes advantage of the public ne
cessities to get the trust price. It is
all free bargain in both cases, as free
as in the kidnapping case. The starv-
ing farmer don't have to sell If he does
not want to, and the starving customer
doesn't have to buy. unless he wants to.
They can starve if they prefer to. Mr..
Cudahy could have lived a broken life
over his mutilated boy if he had wanted
to.-Coming Nation.

PUBLIC UTILITIES
Objections to Municipal Ownership-
Difference Between Then and Now
What IL "Public Uti1ity"s
The Essential Vice or
"ReGulati0n."

At the last annual banquet of the
Merchants association in San Francisco
Mr.. Frank J. Symmes, a public-spirited
gentleman, delivered the principal
speech against the public ownership Of
public utilities, and it was published in
premises, nor in his deductions. His
first deduction, that it is purely "ques-
tion of business" was not well taken.
Questions Of public morality, Of phil
osophy and of sanitation are involved
He accuses the advocates of public own
ership of having strong leaning to-
ward socialism" In the days of the
fathers of the republic this would have
been true. their great doctrine was,
no more interference with, the business
o. the community than might be neces
sary to restrain men from injuring one
another. Their maxim was: "The world
is governed too much.'' They believed
in confining government strictly to the
business of governing, and in leaving
the development of the country to priv
ate enterprise. Amy other kind of gov
ernment they stigmati4ed as paternal
government The only ylexception they
made was in retaining in congress the
control of the postofffee department.
This was socialistic measure. So are
internal Improvements. So are protec-
tive tariffs, and their progeny, the
trusts.
But the gentleman pronounced in ia
vor of control without ownership, as
the solution Of the question. Therein
