DON'T PAY UNDER MUNICIPAL
OWNERSHIP.

The Greenyille Times and West
Point Leader both complain in their
last issues that the electric light and
water plants Of their respective cit
les, under municipal ownership, are
not paying expenses. The editor Of
this paper opposed the purchase of
the light and water plant Of Green
wood when the proposition was put
to a vote Of the people on tn e
grounds that ii would not prove a
paying investment, and we still
doubt whether il will or not. The
Greenyille plant needs new ma
chinery to replace the old which has
worn out, and some advocate selling
the plant TO a private company rath-
or than 60 in debt further and run
at an expense to the taxpayers.
The same condition exists in West
Point. The people are getting tired
Of the increase in taxes brought
about by the city ownership Of these
public utilities, The truth about
the matter is that it is a serious
mistake for small cities and towns to
undertake 10 own and operate light
and water plants, While our light
and water plant is in the hands of
three Of our best citizens and bust
ness men, we doubt whether it will
ever prove a paying investment or
not, There is one thing certain, it
will never pay expenses if the rates
are ever reduced from the present
high standard, which was promised
the people when they voted for the
purchase Of it.

THE CHARLATAN IN REFORM.

1t is a sorry business, this Of the
charlatan in reform; fit 10 be classed
with that Of the charlatan in medi-
cine. To uncover the sins Of ores
associates and ones self as a com
mercial venture and to advertise
specifics or cure-alls is a genuine
menace to public morals. II is one
thing for the department Of health
10 open up acity's sewers. 1t would
be quite another thing if sewer
opening became a commercially
lucrative fad. A man is not a proph-
Ell because he lays bare social evils.
He may be a common yellow jour
nalist. 1t is one thing to bare evils
in the name Of God; it is quite an
other thing to be a scandalmonger
at so much a thousand words.

is honestly helping the American

honor and will assist. But the true

not exploit them commercially.
