CITY OWNERSHIP.

The Willmar Republican Ca
zette in recent issue made an
attack upon the municipal water
and light plant of the city, claim
ing that it's possession has not
been good thing for Willmar,
that no one knew whether it was
paying or not, that it was losing
ground on account of people dis
carding the light, etc. These
charges were worded in general
terms. The TRIBUNE in a recent
issue took up these items one by
one and met the objections in
each case as they had been made,
and showed conclusively by a
comparison of the business done
in 1898 and in 1904 that the plant
is gaining ground. What was
lost to the city during the old
rotten regime that was in it's time
championed by the Gazette no
one knows. It was municipal
ownership for private benefit.
1t is not fair to charge up those
conditions against the principle
Of public ownership, and no fair:
minded man in the city advocates
selling the plant to a private com
pany on chat account. The Ca
zette for some reason does not
know. which side to stand upon.
Read this declaration: =,
= ''The Gazette is not opposed to mu-
nicipal ownership, but in favor OF it
as far as it proves successful. We re-
gard municipal ownership as simply
means towards an end. In q village
or small city it,may be- very satisfac-
tory, but in larger cities and in the
hands 81 professio nal politicians ii
has proved be quite dit ferent.

The capitalization of the rail:
roads in this country in 1903
amounted to $65, 377 per mile.
On this enormous capitalization
more than double the actual
value the people paid dividends
and interest amounting to 7.03
per cent, at least Is per cent on
the actual value Of the roads.
The normal increase in wealth is
about four per cent ayear Is this
Willmar tribune. [volume] (Willmar, Minn.) 1895-1931, 1906-01-24

Government ownership may BE the
same as municipal ownership il the
DRY, but in practice it IS apt to prove
very unsatisfactory, and therefore the
Gazette is not in favor Of it. We be-
lieve, though, that the country is on
the eve OF q deluge Of government and
municipal ownership ideas; that there
will be q movement similar to the
greenback as free silver waves that
will in time spend it's force and end
pretty much as other similar waves
have subsidized" =
''1n favor of it as far as it proves
successful Isn't that a great
declaration of principle? Can
anyone tell whether the Gazette
is in favor Of municipal owner
ship in Willmar from the above
or anything else it,has published?
The inference would be that as
in the opinion of the Gazette the
public plant at Willmar has not
been a good thing for Willmar, it
ought to be sold to a private COM
pany. Still if we said so, the Ca
zette would come back and say
that we misquoted them. Does
the Gazette believe that the best
interests of the city would be
served by selling the city plant
to a private company? Or isn't
it satisfied with the efforts being
made by the Water and Light
Board to bring the business to
the best possible state of eff
cheney? Who knows? If the
Gazette simply has political rea-
sons for wishing change in the
management, why attack the
principle of public ownership?
In favor OF IL as Tar as 1t
proves successful" What a
happy definition of the Gazette
code of principle! It is another
expression of the old politician s
code of ''anything to win.'' The
idea of sticking to a principle that
is right because it is right has
no place in the Gazette platform.
Our bringing in the telephone
question was eminently in line
with our discussion. If private
ownership of a public utility is a
good thing in Willmar, the tele-
phone service ought to prove it..

One of the most disgraceful
jobs in which a cabinet member
ever has been mixed up was the
sale Of the old customs house in
New York to the Standard Oil
bank in New York. The Min
neapolis Journal (republican)
thus tells the story:
The National City bank, the Stand
ard Oil pet banking institution,
bought the old custom house from the
treasury department over eight years
ago for $685. 900. At the time it was
arranged that the government should
continue the building until the new
custom house is completed, which will
be two years hence. In order that the
Standard Oil clique might escape the
taxes on the property, it was arranged
that $4,000 of the purchase price
should be left unpaid, the bank to pay
4 per cent on the sum.
President James Stillman merely
wrote letter to Secretary of the
Treasury Gage saying that he had
credited the government deposit in his
bank with So, 125, 900, and thus the
money continued to remain on deposit
with and subject to the disposal of the
Standard Oil bank. At that time, and
every year since, the National City
bank has carried deposit of govern.
ment money of anywhere from $4,000;
600 to $25, 900, 600. Thus, so far as the
bank is concerned, the purchase money
for the custom house has practically
never left it's possession.
That is, the secretary of the
treasury entered into a conspi-
racy to deprive New York city of
about a million dollars in taxes,
and compelled the government to
pay rent for a building for which
it had in effect not received a
cent. No wonder that Lyman
Gage was rewarded by being put
into well paid job in the Stand.
ard Oil bank when his term ex-
pired.

With the proprietor of the
Merchants Hotel serving time in
Jail, his partner in the law-defy-
ing business under arrest, the
demijohns and fixtures in the GUS
tody of the sheriff, the lid goes
down over the most resourceful,
cunning and brazen gang of pig
gers of Minnesota Thanks to
the chief who was foiled but who
never despaired! Thanks to a
public sentiment that has some
times been defeated, but never
has, and, we believe, never will
surrender to the devils truce
license!

Formal announcement has been
made of the sale of the Mime
sofa Central telephone interests
to the Northwestern. Since the
time that the line to the cities
was sold and competition ceased,
the Minnesota Central has been
an auxiliary of the Bell system.
The present change is one of
name mainly, but it will clear up
the local situation considerably.

: The foreign commerce of the
United States increased about
400 per cent from 1855 to 1904.
In the same period the tonnage
of American vessels engaged in
foreign trade decreased 80 per
cent. The tariff on iron and steel
has played havoc with the Ameri-
can shipping industry.

country Evide ntly the railroads
are getting more than their share
of prosperity.

In the last century the worlds
commerce grew from 81, $780, 900, :
600 in 1900 to 1922, 800, 600, 900
in 1900. Do you begin to rea-
lie that it takes a larger and
steadily increasing per capita vol
ume of money to carry on the
worlds commerce nowadays
than it did a few decades ago?

re-entered the field for sixty days
tour which it is believed will far
eclipse the tour of the northern part
of the state during the fall and early
winter. At Faribault, where a day
conference was held, the large court
room was wellflled at 1890 a. M, for
the morning session and at 2 p. m. al
most every chair was taken when Mr..
Stewart arose to speak. Enthusiasm
was intense. Though $341 IS had
been previously raised for the legisla-
tive campaign in the district the peo-
pie added $3.50. Delegates were elected
to the state convention and cam
paign committee was chosen to prose-
cute the legislative fight. Possibly
the most remarkable meeting of the
week was held at Northtield, at the
St. Olaf's College, the audience con-
sisting Of students and professors of
the school. The interest was marked.
A number of students will devote their
summer vacation to prohibition work.
$279 was raised in cash and pledges
for the work. Mortified is in the
same legislative district as Faribault.
Another gathering of more than usual
interest was held in Houston on the
18th. The total vote in the county for
the prohibition nominee for president
in 1905 was 81, yet more than 80 voters
attended the afternoon session, the to-
tai attendance being nearly 200, and
over $3.50, Or $500 for each prohibi-
ton voter as shown by the returns at
last election was raised, in addition
to 1862 so which had been previously
pledged by the friends of the cause.
The coming week total of twenty
four meetings will be held in Fillmore
Dodge, Olmstead, Goodhue and Da-
kota counties.
Chauncey M. Depew, U. S. Senator
from New York is said to be reading
the newspapers reporting the demands
for his resignation, and absent-mind-
eddy repeating 80, Why should the
Spirit of Mortal Be Proud!'
The horror of the West Hotel fire
cannot be over-drawn, but we legalize
traffic that kills as many every hour
of time. We are queer folks.
In Chicago man earning 800 a
year was made a drunkard. The wife
sued the saloon keepers and got a
verdict of ST., 500 damages. That is a
small price for the ruin of home,
but it may help some.
The question is being raised
"Should a saloon-keeper be held re-
sponsible for the injury done to the
family by reason of the drunkenness
it causes?' The railroads and street
cars, seek to serve the public, and
their business, generally contributes
to the public veal. But if by accident
they injure, while they seek to serve,
they are held liable.
The government cannot protect the
people in the enjoyment Of life, liberty
and happiness, and legalize the saloon
at the same time. When q man starts
out to paint the town he does not use
water colors. !. :. .: Fl . *.=5 = T.

At the south Of US a great empire
state has provided by law system
by which the rates Of transportation
are controlled. Suffering by COM
parison with Canada, we also suffer
by comparison with Iowa and, lying
between these two, it seems to me
that there should be no discrimination
against our own fair state and the vii.
lagos and cities which in part CON-
prise it.
