Municipa Ownership and Citizenship

''Now, have been quoted as saying that your political
system here would prevent the successful operation
of franchises by your municipalities That is mistake
What did say and wish to reterate is that your political
system presented difficulties that unknown to us at
home While of course have politics there it does not
enter into the question of municipal ownership Every
sinks politics and is imbued only with civic pride
From this it appears that what JAS Darympe, the
Glasgow street railway expert has said about the difficulty
of successful municipal ownership in the poitcsridden
cities of this country has been greatly exaggerated
That he should tell Mayors Dunno, Of Chicago, and
Johnson Of Cleveland that their dreams vain made
good reading, but really the material furnished
by Dalrymple himself
But even what Dalrymple did say and stands by is
enough to set the people Of American cities seriously to
thinking. For it must be frankly admitted that in the mat
ter of civic pride and interest not the people of
Glasgow.
Our municipal politics may not be so bad to render
municipal ownership impraccable, and yet be bad
to prevent the fullest benefit to the people only m
ncipalowned street railways but of every other depart
1nent of city government.
1t is fact that the people of the cities of this country
do not get all that is due them
1t cannot be denied that parsanship has largely taken
the place of true civic pride and that party lines divide the
well meaning into hostile camps, while the united tricks
tiers, heelers and grafers ride them rough shod
But though may get the fullest possible benefits
from municipal ownership it does not follow that
unfit for self government.
The incorporation of large business affairs into the city
government will attract the attention of good citizens
their duties The thing Americans meyer neglect is
business. AS the city government grows in business i'm
portance the citizens who refuse to take prominent
part in elections that scrambles for place will
earnestly assume their civic responsibilities
Glasgow citizens have acquired interest and pride by
having civic interests worthy of attention The same
may produce the result here.
IL the people of this country, in municipal organiza
tions, cannot if opportunity is offered prove themselves
TO possess the best business talent in the world will be
the only form of organization in which they have failed

Mr. Lucas is credited with having his eye the pocket
books of the Spokane baseball fans and hopes to lure the
ucre into the Lucas league treasury Mr. Lucas is cred
tied with that idea but because of the superior court in
junction he dare not talk baseball in this Here for
once is of enjoying being gagged. It's fine
to make when anyone tries to learn the Lucas plans
If he gets his desire in the court Monday in spite of
Clyde Williams Wishes he may talk, if talk to fur
ther his designs.
Lucas is credited with attempting to push his coast
league into Spokane, and probably locate the taiender
Victoria team here. Clyde Williams has given Spokane
good ball. and Lucas leaguers to town much
confidence would be inspired if Williams had hand in the
game. There's no doubt about that. IT,

with the Indians after the exhibition of centrifugal force
in the p n L. Then it became perfectly apparent that
there should be country league of amateurs. Following
that city amateur league became just the thing. Now
business house shutdown organization is proposed.
All of this goes to show that Mr. Lucas is wise to the
fact that Spokane wants baseball just much

Spokane people remember what Mr. Lucas did to baseball
