A SEARCHING ANALYSIS.
Municipal Ownership Beautiful In

Theory, but Practically Bid FOR
Political Graft.
Experience has proved that the agita.
tioD for municipal ownership Is usual.
ly In charge OF group Of men who
are looking for personal profit. When
the plant or plants finally get under
municipal control these men are vir.
tually the proprietors. They dictate
who shall have positions, and they
usually see to 1t that they receive o
good return In either the coin Of the
realm or something else Of value for
every position they give out. They are
intent upon squeezing every dollar they
can out OF the plant.
Where a company or the individual
gives much attention to the minutiae

or few dimes or a few dollars here

plants are run I'm slipshod manner.
The engineers. placed In their posi-
tions more because Of their political
prestige than because Of any ability
they may possess. sit around and talk
politics when the machinery Is badly
In need Of their attention. But 1t Is
politics and not attention to duty and
faithfulness that keeps them In their
positions. so they give more attention
to politics than they do to their duties.
The management Of the plant usual.
ly devolves upon committee OF the
town council. Right here Is where the
graft bacteria gets loose and begins to
cause havoc. Some men will stand
for election to council with no other
thought In view than getting their
hands on the light plant. They have
some favorites they wish to place In
office. and they likewise have plan
whereby they can squeeze the busi-
ness so that many golden drops will
fall into their own pockets.
Municipal ownership has been proved
to be impractical In this country. Be-
side discouraglng private enterprise. 1t
accomplishes no real good. but eventu-
ally becomes corrupt sore In the body

Avoiding Class Governme Mt.

We are trying to steer a safe middle
course which alone can save us from
a plutocratic class government on the
one hand or socialistic class govern
ment on the other. either Of which
would be fraught with disaster to our
free institutions. state and national.
We are trying to avoid alike the evils
which would flow from the govern
ment ownership of the public utilities
by which interstate commerce Is car
ried on and the evils which flow from
the riot and chaos Of unrestricted indi-
vidualism. President Roosevelt.

that an issue which offends In single

SOCIALISM AND NJ. o.
Socialists Regard Municipal Ownership
as q Step In the Right Direction.


At the recent labor conference at
Hull. England. q resolution was adopt
ed to the effect that socialism Is the
definite object Of the Labor party"
This party has steadily favored mu-
nicipal ownership. but until this year
has been unwilling to take the next
and logical step Of indorsing social
to Il clearer understanding of the rela-
ton between the two movements. So
cialism stands for the collective own.
ership of all the means Of production;
municipal ownership stands for the
collective ownership Of part Of the
means OF production. The difference is
one of degree. not OF kind. and I'm
Great Britain no logical line Of demar-
cation between the two has been
found.
In this country. too, the Socialist Is
making full use OF municipal owner
ship. He well knows that many peO-
pie will take tickets for short ride
who would be frightened away If urged
to buy through ticket. The main
point is to get them started toward his
ultimate goal. After man has been
enlisted In favor of municipal owner
ship it is comparatively easy to get
him to accept the principle Of public
ownership Of railroads. telegraphs and
Goa! mines. although he may still not
be ready to accept the whole Socialist
programme. collective ownership Of all
the means Of production. for the SIM
pie reason that he Is apt to be an
owner or part owner Of some "means
Of production" himself-e. e.. a shop or
store or share or two of stock In n
manufacturing plant. That Is why the
national platform Of the Socialist par
ty is discreetly silent on some Of the
cardinal doctrines Of socialism. The
real purpose Of collective ownership Of
all the means of production Is there.
F., fore toned down to a demand for
"The collective ownership of rail.
roads. telegraphs. telephones, steam.
ship lines and all other means OF
! transportation and communication and
all land.
"The collective ownership of all In
dustrics which are organized on ma
tlonal scale and in which competition
has virtually ceased to exist.
"Thc extension of the public domain
to include mines, quarries, oil wells
forests and water power"
The platform Is silent about munic
ipal ownership of lighting plants and
waterworks because Nj. o. people are
attending to that part Of the Socialist
! programme. leaving the thoroughgoins
Socialist free to concentrate his effort.
on the second part of the programme
as outlined above. 1t may look entic
ing, but remember that socialism
doesn't intend to stop with public utili
ties and big corporations nor until 1
has swallowed up In the great stat'
machine every vestige Of private own
ership Of everything except what ,
man wears on his back or needs Il

A Peculiar Bird That Fishes With lie
Feathers.

a Peculiar Bird That Fishes With tie
Feathers.
Habits Of the cormorant and OF the
fish hawk are generally known. Their
methods Of taking fish are very much
like those OF birds OF pAey. But the
cassowary fishes according to a meth
cd Of its own. A well known naturalist
witnessed It's operations on a river In
the island OF New Britain.
He saw a cassowary come down to
the waters edge and stand for some
minutes apparently watching the wa
ter carefully. II then stepped into the
river where 1t was about three feet
deep and, partially squatting down.
spread its wings out, submerging
them. the feathers being spread and
RULED.
The bird remained motionless and
kept fits eyes closed as II In sleep. II
remained in this position for a quarter
Of an hour, when. suddenly closing It's
wings and strengthening its feathers, Il.
stepped out on the bank. Here It shook
itself several times, whereupon a guam
tity Of small fishes fell out Of It's wings
and from amid its feathers. These the
bird Immediately picked up and swal-
lowed.
The fishes had evidently mistaken
the feathers for a kind OF weed that
grows in the water along the banks Of
the rivers in this island and which
much resembles the feathers u the
cassowary. The smaller fishes hide In
these weeds to avoid the larger ones
that prey on them Exchange.
