NEW YORK, March 2S.-The British

war ship Restaurador. on the ground that it

tive at Port OF Spain, Trinidad.
The charge against Restaurador cites
that soon after It was handed over to the

berry on the high seas. 1t is charged that
II seized the cargoes OF vessels and that 1t
dismantled and abandoned the craft.

WHICH is MORE sENsIBLE,

From the very first organization OF
civilized society the fact has been rec
ognized that there must be some things
owned in common. At first the vii
lage streets, the court houses and a
few other buildings were the only
things SO owned. AS society grew
more complex it was found that the
public welfare necessitated the public
ownership Of still more things. Pri-
waite highways upon which toll had to
be paid by travellers were made public
property, then little by little followed
the public ownership of municipal
utilities, such as waterworks, street
car lines, gas, electricity and tele-
phones.
The populist party from its begin
ming has recognized that there must be
some things owned by the public. but
