BRYAN AS HAMLET.

By Charles DENLY. democrat. in The
Forum.
The position of parties has been re-
versed. Forty years ago the synonym
for democracy was the word pro
gress. We were eXpansionlsts; we
had annexed all the territory that
could be acquired: we were ambitious
and brave; we had absolute faith in
republican institutions: we were in
favor of the acquisition of Cuba Now.
although majority of democrats both
north and south are in favor of the
same views. no one dares to put them
in a written platform.
Everything is changed. We do not
seem to know where I'VE are at" We
have uncongenial associates, who come
into our living room. put their feet on
top of the mantel-piece, and make
themselves perfectly at home, the same
as if they were members of the family
which they never were, Every man
seems to be for himself. and .cusSes"
his neighbor. AS Senator Vest is said
to have put the situation: THE young
dogs hunt nothing but varmints. and
the old dogs won't hunt at all
We have been playing Polonius to
Mr.. Bryan's Hamlet. We have called
our platform camel weasel" or
"a whale" as our young Hamlet has
dictated. Compare the original with
the facts:
Ham. Do you see yonder cloud,
that's almost in shape of a camel?
Pol. BY the mass. and tbs like
camel. indeed.
Ham. Methinks. ii is like a weasel
Pol. 1t is backed like a weasel
Ham. Or. like whale?
Pol Very like whale.
The parallel is complete to the end
because Hamlet stabbed and killed Po-
lonius. while intending to kill another
man.

Those who advocate the public own
ership of public utilities will probably
reply that the evils and abuses men
toned. while real, are not necessary re-
suits of such ownership. Whether. in
the existing condition of things, they
are probable results is another and
harder question.
El Paso daily herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1881-1901, 1901-03-18
PUBLIC OWNERSHIP AS A
CLOG IN THE WHEELS

Public ownership of public utilities
is not always and in every respect an
unqualified success. 1t does away with
competition, which is the life of pro-
gress so far as most of the public utili-
ties are concerned. There are many
people in the United States who want
government control of railroads, tele-
graph systems, and express service, but
it is doubtful whether the time is yet
ripe for these sytems to be taken from
private hands, where competition is so
fierce that the systems have continually
to improve and perfect every arrange
ment for the public use, convenience
and comfort.
A correspondent of the London Stan
dard resents the criticisms lately pass
ed upon his countrymen by an English
man residing in Minneapolis. and de-
clares Great Britain is behind the Uni
ted States in such things as urban
transportation and telephony, not be-
cause her inhabitants are unprogressive
or unintelligent, but because they have
allowed the general government or mu-
nicipaI corporations to monopolize in
ventions and exploit franchises that in
America are in the hands of private
and competing companies.
In other words, the correspondent
charges the whole trouble to the pub
lie ownership" idea. and he backs up
the accusation with considerable skill.
Under the English tramway art. he
says, towns are empowered to buy out
any street railway for the value of its
material and plant. giving nothing for
the good will of the business that has
been created. This he calls the most
effective of ways for checking initiative
and preventing the invention and adop-
ton of improvements.
Here street railway plants have Of
ten been replaced by better ones twice
in fifteen years. while English COM
panies. not daring to take any specula-
tive risk, can only adopt system that
has proved it's practicability elsewhere,
and change to another system can be
made only under the pressure of dire
necessity.
In telephony" he adds, we are ten |
years behind the times, thanks to The |
postoffice monopoly But the whole eff |
fort of the department seems to have |
been devoted to avoiding the response
bility of providing a telephone service
itself, and at the same time preventing
any one else from doing it. Fearful of
its telegraph monopoly being touched,

AS will be seen upon reading the ac-
count of the doings of the New Mex
leo legislature in today's Herald, there
is a most gratifying tendency no
ticeable among the lawmakers to pur-
sue more conservative policy than
has been their habit heretofore. Near
ly every attempt that was made to in
crease a salary or an appropriation
was sat upon, while there were some
note BILE reductions in outlay. 1t may
be said that New Mexico is not alone
in the good work of killing bills before
they become laws. 1t is true that some
thing like ten thousand new laws will
the legislators are through with their
work But it must be remembered that
forty or fifty thousand bills will have
been killed, much to the disgust of sew
eral thousand worthy legislators and
citizens OF course not one tenth OF
the laws passed will ever be enforced.
nor will any attempt be made to en-
force them. Especially futile are the
laws designed to reform peoples NOR
ais by statute. The law books are
numbered with untold masses of use
les material, and although there is
marked tendency this year in most of
the states to let up in the law making
business. still it will be long before the
yearly accretion of foolish and imprac-
ticable legislation is sensibly decreased.
There are but two possible remedies.
Either send the best men TO the leg
islatures. or cut the terms short and
make the sessions once in two or three
years. a month at a sitting. at two dol
lars a day We must either look upon
our legislature as a dignified. able body. |
of its cost, and worthy of trust. |
,r as a necessary evil. to be avoided as |
ong as possible. and then get through |
With at as little cost and as little en-
to business as can be ar
'anged. The question of the day is.
IS a legislature to be considered as a
food. a Beverage, or a Dose? A neces-
'ity, luxury. or a means of grace?

not yet done with pulling King Ed

building it up. We read one day of
his unparalleled vices and weaknesses
and the next of his unsurpassed virtues

many to shake their heads over his

There is n strong sentiment through
out the south in favor of a strong and
respectable opposition party. 1t is the
sentiment of many leading men who
are now allied with the democrats that
with the negro corrupt vote eliminated
and the constitutionality of the state
Acknowledgement measures established,
the republican party will have chance
in some states to win in straightfor-
ward contests. and will at least serve
to turn political issues away from the
traditional negro controversy, to live
issues that are more to the point and
more vital to the material welfare and
prosperity of the south. 1t is under
stood that President Mckinley is in
Ginning strongly toward adopting some
plan that will hold the scattered and
republican party in the
south together, and make it possible for

negro predominates to ally themselves

Booker Washington is the best hui
mored. the most practical. and the
wisest of negroes. He says that the
first and chiefest necessity for uprais-
ing the negro is a tooth brush. Next
to the tooth brush and bath tub he
urges skill in some trade. The Afro
American, a negro organ. published in
Washington. is hammering away at
some of Booker Washingtons views.
In a recent editorial. the paper sug-
gested that if the girls would spend
their money on bath tubs instead of
pianos. they and colored society both
would be better off. The high class ne
gro girls of the cities all regard a
piano in the parlor as the acme of lux
ury and style. But it is not pianos nor
Latin essays nor acquaintance with the
poets that can redeem the negro race.
AS Booker Washington says. it is
cleanliness. skill. industry. property.
and decent living.
