MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP.

No sympathy is felt by the conserva-
tive New York Evening Post with "the
shallow taunt that municipal ownership
is socialism and many other papers
seem to share its feeling. That the
sentiment in favor of municipal owner.
ship is having an Enthusiastically rapid
growth is remarked alike by Mr..
Hearst's Iapers, which view IL with
elation, and by such papers as the New
York Times, which view it with alarm.
Several financial papers, too, are i'm
pressed with the spirit of hostility to
corporations that is abroad in the land.
This hostility, thinks the New York
journal of Commerce, has been aroused
by corporate abuse CT power, aud it
adds that the recent behavior of some
corporations is calculated to intensity
that feeling" "Public opinion is ris-
ing and advancing ON this subject of
the abuse of corporate power" it says,
land it would be much wiser to show
respect for it and seek to reconcile pri-
vate interests with public rights SO that
neither may be sacrificed" The Wal
Street Journal remarks upon the pc
culiar fact that great prosperity aud
great discomfort are existing in America
simultaneously, and it goes oil to say.
in explanation of it:
"There is a feeling abroad that per-
haps after all dollars and cents are not
the only measure of success, and that
there are some things which have not a
price. There are many economic her
estes abroad in the land. as there are
always and always will be, but they are
not the substance of the complaint.
The principle of municipal ownership
is prominent only because OF the out
rageous debauchiDg of municipal bodies
by public service corporations. The
agitation for Government ownership Of
railroads is merely a phase of the real
trouble which is that the present
statute-b book is totally untitled to d. al
with present conditions. Inc demand
for destruction of large corporations is
merely froth; the real demand is that
the corporations shall only obey the
law and shall keep their lobbyists from
the Legislatures"
Many conservative papers are coming
out strongly in opposition to the NUM-
cipal ownership movements The Chi
cago Tribune asks the ''ownerites" why
they do moi carry the idea to the length
it is carried in England and have mum
cipal laundries, municipal flowers for
the poor, municipal music, aud munich
pal horse-racing. The New York
World shudders at the thought Of the
power Tammany wonld swing with an
army of 100, OC0 municipal employees on

Neyada's Population Misrepresented

In reponse to a protest received from
ex-senator Stewart. Director North Of
the United States Census Bureau has
Sent word that hereafter in estimating
the population of Nevada for official
publication and other purposes he will
use the census returns of 1900, which
showed that the State had a population
Of az. 600. instead of showing a lesser
figure. In explaining his recent esti-
mates Director North stated that in
both the last censuses the Slate showed
a decrease in population and that his
estimates were based on this decline.
The protest from Nevada showed that
the State Lad almost doubled its popu-
lation within the last eight months and
asked that the estimates show this in
crease.

Attorneys Advice Not Needed.

chant who died in San Francisco re-

years ago. He married afterwards and
failed to make any provision for his
widow before his death. When Mrs.
Crosby arrived in Virginia with the re-
mains she was advised by Major HUFF
faker. the Crosby Company's attorney,
to take rooms in the hotel until the
estate was probated. as the family resi-
dence was locked and sealed. Mrs.
Crosby paid no attention to the advice
and entered the residence through q

Neroda Legislators in Sorry Contrast.
Governor Ii Foilet of Wisconsin is
another man who has won q complete
victory over the corporate forces of his
State and forced through the Legisla-
ture a railroad rate bill that gives the
people relief. He will now resign the
Governorship and accept the position
of United States Senator, to which he
has been duly elected. The contrast
between the Legislature of Wisconsin
and that Of Nevada is marked. A bill
fixing railroad rates in Nevada was in
troduced last Winter by Assemblyman
Smith and received just five votes. Yet
Nevada is more abused by ia lroad ex-
tortion than Wisconsin, or any other
State in the Union. The Silver State
has heard it said that the members
of the late lamented Leg. stature rode
passes and that they were in that
way "prejudiced" in favor of the Espee.

BECOMING LITTLE CHILDREN.

When children begin to make a re-
'llgious creed FOR their own faith with
out the help OF their elders, and the
creed they fashioned puzzles and de-
flies the doctors OF the divine law, II
would seem that the time draw nigh
when out OF the mouths Of babes and
sucking wisdom shall come unto men
A few weeks ago 40 school children
OF various sects concluded that II
would be better for their mutual re-
lations to agree upon some simple
principles OF moral faith and credit
each other with a common sincerity in
their fealty and obedience to this con-
census creed. 1t is remarkable now
simple these children colated those
foundations OF religious faith which
have been instructive since the re-
corded history OF men began and have
been the religio- -phychlc force Of all
the better civilization since the coming
of the Christian era. Since they de-
clared that there is n universal Fa'
ther, who Is wisdom, love, truth and
mercy: a Christ who is a model for
men and teacher OF just morals: n
spiritual moTltor whose Inspirations
are faithful and righteous. a brotherly
obligation that all men should dis
charge to others without stint or par
tallty, and that those who do Well will
achieve blameless characters In this
life and whatever rewards may be
awarded in eternal life, we can ind
no good reason why these Caildren
have not as valid right to make a
creed as any council Of annolted ecle'
slastics who ever sat debated and de-
clded forms OF faith In any era of the
past.
our purpose is not to repeat In full
and recommend this creed OF the
children. II Is only to use an index
finger pointing the way in religion that
millions OF men are now going. III
cannot be said Of them that they are
abadonIng faith or seeking ways TO
exhibit irreligion. They have simply
ceased to regard churchlsm as an es-
sentlal help to them In the practice OF
Christian principles. They do not find
the gospel prepared and supplied from
modern pulpit in the form OF strong
spiritual meat and drink. They re.
sent both the formalisIms of some sects
and the petty bondages exacted by
others.
In other words. there Is confusion
in church acquisitions concerning the
life that tends to estop many
sane and strong thinkers from COM
mitting themselves to their dogmat
isms on what are clearly non-essen-
tials. One church sect prohibits the
use Of wine except for sacramental
another allows It's use with
In moderation. One prohibits the the
ater to its members; another allows
It. One dsnounces dancing as sin; an
other makes no announcement Of It, eX-
cept II becomes majesty immoral. SO
that thousands Of men are In doubt as
to what body Of doctors Of divinity are
right in such matters and cut the knot
Of their puzzle by not joining any Of
the churches. This Is one Of the rcas-
ons for the Increasing demand for a
simple and universal Christian creed
that will harmonize spiritual truths
supply the firm foundations Of a say
ing faith and lay upon no man any
yoke that is not demanded by the spirit
Of loyalty to our Divine Father and
Moral Master.

Senator Hepburn passed through
Troy Tuesday enroute to Boise. He
expressed himself as pleased with the
steady growth in Troy and the sur
rounding territory, and hoped our har-
vest would be as bountiful as the pros
pect would warrant. Regarding the
proposed forest reserves he said he
now proposed to carry the fight onto
the floor of the United States congress
and felt confident that eventually he
would win out. The senator was ap-
parently in excellent health and full
OF determination to continue the fight
in behalf of the people of Northern
Idaho against the proposed forest re-
serve. 1t is a lucky thing for the
people that Idaho is represented in
the U. S. senate by so able man as
Senator Hepburn. And it will be even
more fortunate when Fred T. Dubois
is succeeded by another broad guaged
senator of the Hepburn class.

is quoted as saying that the democratic
party of Idaho will go into the coming
campaign in this state upon the same
issues that they used last year. This
is certainly welcome news to the re-
publicans. The platform last year was
probably about as weak and insane as
it would be possible for even the dem
ocratic party to get up and the deter
minaton to remain crazy is not sur
prising.
