municipal use 1t is proper that the surplus from such should be sold to private consumers. At any rate 1t has grown into a system that the city is to small extent in partnership with citizens in water and light plants. But the system should not be extended to other public utilities," to use the phrase of the populistic lexicons.
 Public utilities" Is a misleading phrase. Street car lines, the telegraph and the telephone are not for public" use. They are for individual use by those why pay for the service. They are no more public utilities" for the public use than stores, meat markets and shoe shops are public utilities" CT for the public use.
 A street, bridge or a park Is public utility''-owned by the public because private ownership is impracti- cable-and therefore used by the public without compensation. The distinc- tion is plain.
 A utility" the populistic word. may be owned by the municipality when 1t was constructed for municipal use. like waterworks, and that is its main pur- pose. When the utility" Is for in- dividual use, like street cars and gas, municipal ownership is out of the ques- ton except in @ socialistic republic, which is not our form of government.

WILL KNARD ESCAPES.
Sher if of Wayne County, Tenn, Off,
 fers Reward for Him.

Florence. May 2O.-(Special .)-Will Knard confined in the jail at Waynes- boro, Tenn, for the murder of Will Darby near Cypress Inn, Tenn, last December, has escaped and a reward of $50 is offered by the sheriff of Wayne County for his capture. Knard was captured a month ago through the efforts of Sheriff O. B. Hill of this city, who followed him to Texas and brought nlm back. Knard has a large family connection in Wayne County and 1t is thought that he was aided in his escape. Knard killed Darby with a shot gun in a fight. He left family in Texas when brought back from there several weeks ago.
 Memorial Day was observed by the Ladies' Memorial Association and the Daughters of the Confederacy yester- day afternoon at the Presbyterian Church. The Knights of Pythias, Camp O'Neal of Confederate Veterans, Sunday school children. and others took part in the ceremony which was beautiful and impressive. Hon. E. H. Screws of Montgomery delivered the memorial address He was intro duced by Mayor John R. Weakley. Rev Harris E. Kirk opened the exercises by prayer and the Sunday school chil- dren sang America. Father Ryan's poem March of the Deathless Dead was recited by Mrs. R. F. Bunting. Miss Elijah Conner was sponsor.

Municipal Ownership Facts.

Chicago Chronicle.
 "The ownership of water plants, says The Chattanooga Times. which. is in favor of ultimate though not of i'm mediate municipal ownership. has worked fairly well in many cases, and the principle Is the same whether it is a waterworks or street railway" The principle is not the same.
 A city constructs waterworks to sup ply it's own municipal needs-to water the streets. to flush the sewers. to sprinkle the public parks, for use in case of fire The city uses more water for its own purposes than is used for private purposes, except, perhaps, as to great manufactories and industrial establishments like the stock yards.
 The same may be said of municipal lighting plants. They are used to illuminate the streets public buildings, engine houses. parks and police sta tiors The main purpose of water plans and lighting plants is to supply municipal needs. They are like the sewers, the police stations, the hos pitals and fire approximation city use. That is the primary and main object of their construction.
 If the city owns water plant and a lighting plant supplying more water and light than are needed for

A FA1LAc1oUs POSITION.

The Laborer's Banner Brewton,
 Ala. has this indefensible statement: Members of organized labor throughout the entire country are resigning from the State militia companies. The reason is that ninety mine times out of every hun dred the State militia is used for the purpose of suppressing efforts of work
 ing people to better their condition.
 Whether The Banner is or is not correct about the resignations we do not know. nor does 1t matter. but there is no excuse for the language used in the latter portion of the above para
 graph. The efforts of working peo-
 pie to better their condition" is one
 thing, interfering with public traffic,
 injuring or destroying private as we'll
 as public property, and causing the
 maiming or killing of peaceful citizens is quite another thing. If The Ban ner has kept up with the accounts of some recent strikes it knows that in almost every case there have been
 acts of violence on the part of strikers 1 for which there was no shadow of ex- | cuse, palliation or justification. Street. cars have been blown up with dyna- mite, unoffending passengers have
 been maltreated and non- union men
 mobbed for no other reason than that they were trying to better their condition" by taking such work as | was offered them and trying to sup port themselves and their families by honest labor.
 When men go out on a strike peace-
 fully and quietly they receive the sym
 pathy of a large portion of the com | munity. but when they resort to vio- fence and incendiarism, wreck the
 property of others, endanger the lives of citizens. and band themselves to-
 gether to prevent other men from
 making an honest living 1t becomes
 the duty of the civil authorities to in-
 terfere for the preservation of the peace and the protection of life and property. In such cases. if the local

The Talladega News-Reporter says

Grandma says that when the weekly press gang print papers that cannot pos- sibly be read to send those to some non- paying subscriber and not to The Adver- tiser. Why some of you boys will persist in trying to get out a good print on a cheap press worries us.
 Our contemporary is hardly fair to the weekly press. Having had consid- erable practical experience in that line we know that country editors are not always able to own the. best of presses and we also know that sometimes even a eood press will turn out a badly printed sheet We ask to have plain ly printed copies sent The Advertiser because our exchange editor desires to scan the editorial as well as local col umns of all the State papers.

WHEAT CROP SPLENDID.

 Keen Planted in Cleburne.

Edwardsville, May 2O.-(Special.) j. This vicinity was visited yesterday by a nice rain, the first to fall this month' and it was much needed. Crops were suffering very badly for the want of it The oat crop in this county will be very short on account of the dry weather. The acreage is much larger than usual. The wheat crop Is fine and above an average for this time Of the year,
 Friday night a saw mill, blaming mill and about 100000 feet of lumber were burned, entailing loss of about $S.OOO with no insurance.
 County Court will be very busy this week. as it is the last week in this term and several very important cases are set down for trial.
 The normal school for teachers is progressing finely, and about forty are in attendance. There are several good openings in the county for teachers.

We have been making some researches with reference to the lofty sentiment "Government derives it's Just powers from the consent of thegoverned,' and find the quotation in one General Braxton Bragg's Kentucky military proclama- tions. It may not have sounded absurd then, but 1t was as demagogical then as now.-Sheffield Reaper.
 You ought to give Thomas Jefferson credit for having used the expression nearly a century earlier, in the Decla- ration of Independence. And Thomas hasn't the reputation of having been a demagogue.

 The sort-term franchise policy is gaining a foothold among the leading municipalities of the South. Recently the Mayor of Atlanta vetoed an ordi- nance granting a right of way ever certain streets to street railway company because the grant was for fcrty-seven years. The City Council of New Orleans at present has an ordi- nance under consideration granting franchise for fifty years duration to a gas company, and the newspapers of that city are fighting it. They con- tend that no valuable franchise should be granted for n longer term than tyenty-one years, and in this. we be- lieve. they are on the right track The fewest of municipalities in the South get what their franchises are worth. If they got value received for all such concessions, the tax rate would be materially decreased. It Is gratifying that the larger cities of the South are waking up to the value of such things. The prevailing custom of giving away valuable franchises for fifty to one hundred years is bad public policy and should be changed.
