May Put the Gas Price Question
Up to Us,

t#s 3
The possibility that the st. Paul Gas
company may yet accept a reversion
clause in the proposed franchise ordi-
nance and agree to sell gas at 81 a
thousand feet, beginning in 1904, in
stead of, 1907, is interesting. Public
franchise corporations in this day Of
progressive courts and new ideas of
public rights have no stomach for liti-
cation over questions of privilege.
If st. Paul is to get dollar gas next
year, the price of gas is very likely to
become live question in Minneapolis.
1t can hardly be expected that our peo-
pie will be content to go on for seven
years paying $1.S0 for gas while st.
Paul pays 81. 1t is now nearly ten
years since the present price was fixed
for Minneapolis, and it is doubtless
feasible, with due regard to the inter-
ests of the company, to sell gas con-
siderab1y cheaper now than then. In
fact the company has been promising
a further reduction soon, tho not pub
licly and officially. The consumption
of gas in Minneapolis must have al
most doubled in the last ten years. "A
margin Of profit that was sufficient or
the production of ten years ago should
be very liberal now.

A Victory for Free Speech.

The attempt to force Professor
Spencer Bassett out Of Trinity college,
Durham, N. c., because of his opinion
of Booker Washington, has ignomin-
iously failed. By vote of II to the
trustees Of the college refused to ac-
cept Professor Bassett's resignation.
The trustees say they cannot support
all of Professor Bassett's views, but
that he has the respect of the faculty
and the confidence Of the Students and
they fail to see any good reason why
the college should part with his serv-
ices.
