CIVIC ACTIVITIES

Belfast, Ireland, is the most recent
British city to take over it's streetcar
lines, and about the latest to abandon
horse power. The corporation recently
bought out the private company, whose
franchise ran to 1907, on the basis of the
value of the physical property plus three
years profits to the stockholders and
three years compensation to the officers.
With an issue of $5,000,000 bonds the city
has put in a frst-class system Of thirty
six miles, double track. -
The municipal battle in Seattle is rem
dered more picturesque by the presence
in the field Of an out-and-out municipal
ownership candidate for mayor, Judge
William Hickman Moore. There Is little
probability of his election, but his candi-
dacy serves to bring the issue distinctly
forward in politics.

without apparently much assistance from
the administration. The council has
passed an ordinance prohibiting the sale
Of liquor in dance halls after o'clock
am. It also passed an ordinance max
ing 1t the duty of the chief of police to
issue permits for public dances. The
plain inference is that the council did not
desire liquor served at dances after
O. clock and did not wish any dances held
without the permit of the chief Of police.
The chief has construed this ordinance
that in cases where he is required to
give permits tho serving of liquor can
go on to any hour yhe chooses. The sit
uation comes down to the municipal
operation Of public dances under the au-
spices of the police with the special de-
tail as chaperone.
Two English corporations, the London
county council and the corporation of Man
chester, have recently been held by the
courts for exceeding their powers. The
county council ran omnibuses In compe-
tition with private owners and this was
held to be an unauthorized application. Of
taxes Manchester has been stopped
from doing an express business over its
tram lines.
