Municipal Ownership Will Not Do Here,
He Says.

Philadelphia, Pa, June 15.--James

that municipal ownership will never do

OF the great dangers with which the
people OF this country must contend.
ITO put street railroads, gas works,
telephone companies, ETC., under munic-
ipal ownership he said Teusday even
ing, would be to create a political ma
chine in every large city that would be
simply impregnable. These political ma
chimes are already strong enough, with
their control of policemen, firemen and
other office holders.
IF, in addition to this, they could
control the thousands of men employed
in the great public utility corporations,
the political machines would have
power that could not be overthrow.

ownership under proper conditions, is far
better for the citizens of American
