According to Canton attorneys, who
have been interviewed on the subject.
the Pennsylvania railroad is liable and
may be he-: for the damage, which re-
suited from the flood in the eastern
part of the city and in which thou
sands of dollars worth of property was
destroyed. The railway bridges over
the east branch of the Nimishillen act
ed as dams and were directly respon-
sible for the backing up of the waters.
At the first bridge east of the city,
construction work is In progress and
false piers have been built, which,
practically close the creek channel.
The second bridge near Stark siding
was lately reconstructed and the ap-
erture underneath, through which the
creek flows, was made considerably
smaller. On these two accounts the
water, during the late freshet, was
damned back and the inundation fol-
lowed. II Is a clear case of liability
on the part of the railroad company
and those persons who suffered loss
should have no hesitancy in putting
in their claims.

Fully 80 per cent of all that is dis
honest, all that is corrupt and all that
is menacing to free institutions in
municipal and state government can
be traced directly to the influence of
these quasipublic corporations upon
local politics They not only debauch
city and state governments, but it is
their consistent policy to maintain
these governments in a state OF pros
titution-their influence is cast habit
ually against all decency and efficiency
and integrity in public affairs. The
sentiment in favor of municipal
ownership is grounded almost who'll
ly In the belief that the people have
no other means of protecting them
selves against the rapacity and Grim
inal greed Of quasipublic corporations.
They are not flying to municipal
ownership, but are being given to 1t

A Naval Proposition.

The things that are urged in the
name OF naval expansion are some-
times calculated to supply comic
opera. A leading Washington corre-
spondent draws moving picture Of
the total destitution Of the United
States In the line of coaling stations
on European waters, with the obvious
inference that II we should get into
war with a European nation we could
not send our fleets to wipe out the
effete monarchy.
The alternative Of keeping our
fleet to defend our coasts and letting
precious coal supply in hunting trou-
the insolent European expend his
BILE is somewhat obvious. But 1t is
retired to the background by the
unique remedy that is proposed
Admiral Bradford and other far
sighted men" are trying to persuade
congress to accept the offer by Lii
IBERIA of site for coaling station!
The idea Of going to Liberia to es-
tablish a naval base for operations
against Europe is set forth in its
pristine massiveness by the geogra-
phical fact that Liberia is just about
as far from Europe as New York is.
AS means OF getting our navy safe
ly remote from the scene of action in
such an imaginary war, and subject
only to the danger Of defamation from
coast fever. the Liberian naval station
would be an immense success.-Pitts-
