this about within a reasonable time"
Both parties are making their cam
paig,l on this ISSUE. The democrat s
are promising to seize the traction
companies at once, The republicans
has not arrived. They declare that
!, they are in sympathy with the
idea and If returned to power they
will bring about municipal ownership
OF street railways at the proper time,
and without unsett1ing conditions.
The democrats have been secur-
ing facts and figures from Europe.
These are printed in half dozen
languages and scattered broadcast.
They show that the wages of trac-
ton employees under municipal owner
ship are higher, hours shorter and
fares lower than under private CO.
troll. The civil service idea is ex-
planned, too, and it is claimed a
strike would be impossible.
The republicans reply that if the
voters elect Judge Dunno, they will
plunge the city into endless litiga-
ton and postpone Indefinitely the
hour of municipal ownership.

lures of the fight was the resignation

Dunno is in the fortys. large. mag

as a jurist is excellent and his life
has been clean. He is a practical

speaker, a good debater and a mas
