PEOPLE BOSSES
Milwaukee's Newly Elected So
cialist Mayor Has Ideas
of His Own.
TO HELP THE WoRKINGMEN
Emil Seidei Proposes to Get Better
Service From the Street Rail-
way Companies.

| 4HSre Is not the slightest reason 1Or
any fear that there will be any harm
full result to legitimate business inter
ests as a result Of Social-Democratic
control of Milwaukee," said Emil Sci
del, Milwaukee's newly elected Social
ist mayor, the other night when asked
what the program Of the Socialists
would be.
There viii be no Utopia, no millen-
mum, none of the wild antics that our
! opponents have charged to us. There
| will be no party bosses. no one man
policy. When we decide upon a course
to pursue there will be conferences
with the other Socialists elected, and
the best lines will be followed. We
shall give every one in the party a
chance to be heard and to voice his
sentiment.
Socialism has been given a chance
to show its merit We can do this by
insistent and consistent conservatism.
In a way we are on trial and viii
show the people of what metal we are
made.
''I find that the great question that
seems to trouble business men is what
will be done In relation to the local
street car situation.
Business Men Need Have No Fears.
I'VE propose to have cleaner cars, no
overcrowding, streets sprinkled be-
tween the tracks, and we hope for a
three cent fare, cheaper gas, municipal
ice and light plants and cheaper bread.
We viii do nothing, however, that is
not for the best interest of the whole
city, apd when any matter relating
directly to the people Of the city comes
up which the Social-Democratic Off
Gals believe should not be decided by
themselves there will be referendum
to the people.
Business men need have no fears.
We shall do nothing contrary to good
government to ALLEVIATE the splendid
support given us by men in all walks
OF life.
1.-THE first step OF the SociaI-Demo-
erat party viii be to reassure the peo-
pie and relieve their minds of any fear
that our victory means an entire over
turning of present business conditions.
The talk OF war on the business inter
ests Of the city is like the other wild
tales that the old party leaders have
told the people would result from our
success.
I'VE are not planning to do anything
to injure the best interests Of the city.
1t is true that we have many plans for
the improvement Of conditions. We
shall make the corporations pay their
share OF the taxes and shall improve
the condition of the laboring men Of
the city. But we will not do anything
revolutionary. That would turn sent-
ment so strongly against US that we
would not even accomplish the good
that we can by being conservative

To Give Good Government.


'The election was not the result of
one campaign. 1t is the victory that
comes to cause after twenty-six years
of the hardest kind of work. We have
flooded this town with literature and
have had men on the stump in and out
of campaign times educating the work
ingmen to the opportunities that lay
before them. We have not promised
the workingmen or the city at large an
immediate panacea for ills. We have
promised the best government that we
can give, and we are going to live up
to that promise"
Victor L. Berger. whose reputation
as a Socialist leader extends through
out the United States, had this to say
about the election:
This victory marks a new epoch in
American history, and any man or
woman whe has helped to bring it
about will naturally feel proud. This
is nebody's personal victory. 1t is not
Seidels; it is net Berger's victory. 1t
is victory for a principle, a victory
for progress, a little step toward a
higher phase of civilization"
The completed returns of the cleo
ton show that the Social-Democrats
have practically complete power in the
city for the next two years. Seidel,
for mayor. got 7.109 plurality. Seidel's
plurality is thus the largest in the his
tory of Milwaukee's municipal cleo
tons with the exception of the election
Of 1898, when David S. Rose, Demo-
crat. had 7,s4o,
The total vote was as follows:
Seidel, 2T.622; V. ]. Schoenecker, Jr.,
Democrat, 2o.513, and DIR. John NJ.
Beffel, Republican, 1892.
The new council consists of twenty
one Social-Democrats, ten Democrats
and four Republicans. In the new
board Of supervisors there are eleven
Social-Demeerats, three Republicans
and two Democrats. The Social-Dem-
ocrats also elected two out OF seven
civil judges, while ten bond questions
providing fo- various city improve
ments carried
An analysis of the vote shows that
many Republicans and Democrats sup
ported the Socialists.

by the people of the Lanana valley. A

hall had been carefully decorated for
the occasion, elaborate displays of
mineral, horticulture and floral
products having been arranged TO show
the visitors from Washington the pos

ENORMOUS RAISE
TO Be CONSIDERED
Freight Tariffs Aggregating
Half Billion Increase To Be
Heard.

Washington, Aug. 14.-Increases in
freight rates aggregating, according to
estimates made by the interstate COM
merce commission, 5OO,OOO.OOO an
nually in official classified territory
that part of the country north of the
Ohio and Potomac and east of the
Mississippi river. will be considered
at a hearing that begins tomorrow in
New York City
1t is probable that the formal hear
ing of the evidence in the case will be
postponed until a later date, probably
September Z, because the railroads are
not fully prepared to proceed. The
tariffs involved have been postponed
until November /. Meantime the eX-
listing rates are in effect. According
to unofficial figures made by the COM
mission, the advances shown by the
tariffs averaged about 16 per cent over
existing rates.
This advance is distributed among
413 transportation lines, being an
average of something more than ST.
000,O a year each.
Reports received by the commission
indicate that the increases in Operat-
ing expenses of the roads during the
last ten years have been very heavy.
The greatest single item of increase is
in the cost of labor, which is estimated
to be about 44O per cent Of the expense
OF operation.
1t will be necessary for the rail-
roads under the existing law to justify
their advance by affirmative proof of
their necessity. In other words, the
burden of proof OF the reasonableness
Of the increases will rest on the car
riers
