The Review by MIR. Bemis.
Mr.. Bemis declares that the over
capitalization and high earnings there
on of private companies and the de-
~moralizi1g relations often existing be-
tween private companies and city w
ernments are the two great reasons
for the municipal movement.
Mr.. Bemis opens his detailed review
of the experts reports with an analy
sis of the municipal plants, with espec
ial commendation for the low meter
rates at Cleveland. He declares that
in spite of great reductions of rates
in Syracuse on going from private to
municipal ownership, and the paeno-
menally low charges for all residence
consumers under the present meter
system in Cleveland and the moder-
ate charges also in Chicago, the fl

Why Colds are Dangerous.

Because you have contrcted ordinary

AMERICAN WAR
SOLDIERS COME IN AGAIN
"
For More MOney-Are Allow
ed an Additional Sum
Of $1,943.00.

Washington, Oct 10.--Under n de-
cision rendered by the Controller of
the Treasury the contentious of c. G.
Calhoun, the special attorney for the
State of Kentucky, are upheld and
the States Spanish-American War
soldiers of the First, Second and Thir
regiments are allowed an additional
amount of $1,943. With the excep-
ton of three minor claims, the set
tlement of this case completes all
the claims which Capt Calhoun thinks
the State is entitled to recover upon.
One of the pending claims is for
about $500 for expenses for caring
for sick soldiers; another is for So
200 for pay for extra services rem
dered in the Spanish War by the
late Gen. Dan Collier and Col. w.
S. Forester, the States Adjutant
General and Assistant Adjutant Cen
eral respectively at that time under
Gov. Bradley. The third grows out
of the Civil War and Will amount 10
about $4,000. The aggregate of the
recovery of these war claims, there
fore. makes a fine showing for the
State. The amounts which have been
collected by Capt. Calhoun are as
follows: Civil War, interest claim,
81, 1928, 999.35; Spanish War, transpor-
tation, recruits, etc., $S,S27.21; prop
erty, SAP, 4S7.76; pay to soldiers, $14S,-
3S3.1O. Total, $1,5S3,69742.
To recover this amount it has cost
the State but $72,223.5S, little over
4 per cent. of the amount recovered,
and with no risk whatever to the
State, as the cases were prosecuted
upon purely contingent basis.
