THE Wall Street Journal" says
" Governor Stokes is entirely sound in
his proposition to have the general
terms governing the granting of fran
chises fixed by state law. The mu-
inequalities would still retain the right
to grant the franchises but they would
have to do so upon the terms laid
down in the state law In proposing
to restrict the franchises to twenty
five years Governor Stokes has named
a period which in many instances
would be too short to attract large
capital 1t would seem to be alto
gether better to extend the limitation
period to thirty-fiye or fifty years.
That there should be limitation cam
not, however, be disputed. Within a
reasonable period there should be an
opportunity for reimbursement Of the
terms upon which the corporations
may enjoy the rights given them UNI
der the public franchises. In dealing
with the question of oyercapitaliza-
tion, the Governor is also upon safe
ground. There can be no doubt that
he puts the case correctly when he
says that the opposition to public util-
ity corporations, as now conducted,
grows out of belief that they are
vastly overcapitalized, SO that they are
reaping undue profits out of the pub
lie franchises granted to them. While
admitting that it is not easy to pre-
vent oyercapitalization, the Governor
declares that public utility corpora
tions should be obliged to report to
the state the cost of construction and
extension of their lines or mains, as
the case may be; and the capitaliza-
tion should then be fixed upon this
basis with proper margin for work
ing capital and for such contingencies
Us the expenses of banking and tinanc-
ing. y

BUY THE LAKES.

Governor Stokes recommends that,
where practicable, the 108 fresh water
lakes of New Jersey, covering $4,000
acres, he acquired by the State and
set apart as public parks, in connec-
tien with the forestry reservation. He
regards the subject OF such great i'm
portanca as to warrant full inyesti-
CATION, that should be. begun at once
in order that any preliminary legisla-
ton that may be required can be had
at the present session.
If for no other reason than to secure
to the public the fishing and boating
privileges they have always enjoyed
in these lakes. the Legislature would
be warranted in authorizing their pur-
chase by the State A movement in
this direction was started three or
four years ago in Sussex county, but
tile courts decided that there was a
fault in the law under which proceed
ings were to be taken.
But the Governor advances a strong
er reason. The State now owns no
potable waters, he says, and suggests
that if the Supreme Court decision in
the case of the Hudson County Water
Company is sustained, it may be found
that no individual OF corporation has
the right to sell potable waters within
the State without the States consent.
He also refers to the fear of water
famines that now prevails in some of
the larger municipalities, and urges
the Legislature to take prompt action.
Under the circumstances it would
seem that ordinary prudence demands
that instead of spending SI25,O0o for
the purchase Of $4,000 acres Of com
paratiyely worthless land in Atlantic
county, the money should be used I'M
acquiring possession of some of the
lakes in the northern part Of the State,
that will be required to supply the
big cities with water. The Atlantic
county tract can be acquired later, il
it Is needed.

United States Senator Dryden on
Monday introduced bill for federal
control Of insurance The bill is re-
garded as one of the most important
measures thus far presented at the
present session Of Congress.
Publicity is its keynote. Coupled
with this are provisions, which it is
believed, would prove ample safe
guards for the detection Of wrong-do-
ing and the punishment of those SO
offending factors which will appeal
to the public at large.
The manner of defining policies OF
insurance contracts, as Instrumental
tiles Of commerce and for the regula-
tion of the business through the medi-
UNI of comptroller of insurance, and
along lines similar to the control ex-
ercised over national banks, will, on
the other hand, go far toward meet
ing the objections of those who have
questioned the constitutional possibil-
tiles Of federal regulation Of insurance.
Judging from the comments, Sena-
tor Dryden's bill comes nearer meet
ing the demands of the situation, and
will receive more serious consideration
than any of the other numerous pend
ing measures.
Senator Dryden has long been a
champion of federal regulation. He
took the initiating in the matter, in
spite of the opposition of many insur-
ance interests, during the last session
and long before there was any thought
Of insurance investigations and the
consequent sensational developments.
He has shown, too his profound know
ledge of every phase of the insurance
business and a clean record for his
own company by his recent voluntary
testimony before the New York i'll
surance committee.

is also creditable to the Republican
party. The comptroller j willard
Morgan, shows an increase Of nearly 8
per cent. in the ratables Of New Ter

LON AONEW
A VICTIM
Shot by Federal Officer
During the Big
Fire.

In a clash between Federal regulars
and the self constituted Citizens
Vigilance Committee. in San Francisco
on the day following the outbreak of
the fire, Lon Agnew, one of the vigi-
lante chiefs, was shot down, dying
some days afterwards from the wounds
received.
Agnew was well known in Honolulu,
having made this place his home for
over three years. leaving here last for
the Coast just two years ago. While
in Honolulu, he was connected with the
local police force ard also made three
appearances in the prize ring, once with
Jimmy Fox, whom he defeated, and
twice with Jack Weday, who knocked
him out in the last meeting.
The news of Agnews death was
brought yesterday on the China. 1t
appears that friction between the vigil
lantes and the Federal authorities de-
veloped early in the fight against the
fire and against the hooters taking adj
vantage of the calamity to ply their
ghoulish trade.
In the alteration Agnew made a gun
play and was promptly shot down. He
was removed to the Preside Hospital,
where he died some days later.
