BETTING ON CITY LIGHTS.
Grand Haven People Never Know
What to Expect From the City

Grand Haven People Never Know
What to Expect From tho City
Lighting Plant.
The citizens and taxpayers Of Grand
Haven have for a number of years
been dissatisfied with their street and
commercial lighting system as con-
Quoted by the municipality. The sys-
directed and has been 'politicked" to
death. In fact, there is very little left
of the many thousands that the tax
paying public of Grand Haven has
poured into the municipal plant.
For two years now our street lights
have been comparable to redhot irons
stuck up in the air. With the excep-
ton of the downtown circuit, which
has been fairly we'll maintained, the
incandescent lighting system has, too,
been very bad. In some parts Of the
town it has come to such a pass that
people have gambled on whether or
not they would have lights at certain
hour or certain night.
At the plant things have been going
to smash right along. First one ma
chine would burn out or be wrecked
and then another. The taxpaying pub
lie has been contributing regularly to
repairs and rebuilds, and 1t has been
like dumping refuse into quicksand
pit. Hundreds of the taxpayers good
dollars have gone into unnecessary
damage costs in our misdirected and
misguided electric light plant, and to-
day all we have is practically nothing
more than an expensive junk heap

TARIFF REVISION NOT NEEDED
IL Cannot Be Accomplished Without
Disturbing Business.

The Dingley bin has proved the
most satisfactory and beneficent law
of It's character the country has
ever had II has been longer on the
statute books than any other tariff
law We have ever had aud IL Is a
grave question indeed II another so
generally satisfactory can be framed.
To be honest with ourselves at
the present time II must be admitted
that no general revision is needed
or is wise for the country. The de-
mand for 10 has been created by pol
iticians who are out of office and
want 10 get In. L. has ever been so.
Whenever one set of politicians are
out they immediately set about 10
discover some new issue upon which
10 rout the ins. Tariff revision has

ever been a popular issue with this
sort of politicians, and for a half
dozen years now they have been
working It to the limit. So much
has been said about it during recent
years that very many people have
come to believe that It Is absolutely
essential to the very life of the gov
vernment, If not to themselves, that
nothing short of general revision Is
going to satisfy them. In reality
there should be no general revision
at all, for such an undertaking
means to open the entire tariff ques-
tion and a radical disturbance to
business for some months. We
ought to be smart enough as peo-
Pile to pass a tariff law that would
stand the test of years, changing in
dividual schedules as frequently as
business interests affected thereby
demand. There is not today a
single schedule in the Dingley law
which could not be changed, II nee
essary. without revising or changing
any other schedule in the law, and
In doing so it would not be necessary
to dlsarrange our present satisfac-
tory business machinery. But the
politicians will not he satisfied with
such a business-like and sensible
treatment Of the tariff question. II
Is the one great reliable political is
sue, and they hang on TO II like a
drowning rat to a sinking ship. For
this reason a revision is soon to oc-
curr and the people will do well to
look the question squarely in the
face, refusing to be deceived by the
specious argument that all this can
be done without disturbing busi-
