day that for the prize of scc;ai prefer
ment Mrs. Asouith, wife of the premier.

age, has influenced her husband TO
weaken in his stand against the lords.

indirectly exerted alleged influence

threatens an early dissolution OF the
new parliament.

the council should order the mains ex-
tended at once on East Putnam street
and on Harrison street. rs the fire pro-
lection in that section is not good. He
says also that If 1t is at all possible
an extension should be made east on
North street. from the intersection of
North and Madison streets to point
1900 feet east.
The city has some pipe on hand and
with the purchase of the material nee
essa-y to the construction of the ad-
ditional mains. together with the labor,
the cost would total about $1,000.

Judge Van wagenen, Of Sioux City
who attended the Jefferson banquet, is
ore of the best informed men OF gov
eminent ownership of railroads in the
country. Seven years ago. at similar
banquet in Des Moines the judge deliv-
cred an address on the subject which
startled the democrats by its strong
showing. There was some talk then
Of nominating him for governor and
making government ownership the is
sue, and one effect of his speech was to
attract the attention of the democrats
of the nation 50 that they took it up.
Since then the Judge has kept up the
study and now he mas written a book
CT Government C,wnership of Railroads
in which is given a vast amount Of in
formation as to what is being done II
will be published next month by the
Putnams. Of New York and London.
The judge states that within the seven
years the cause Of governIne nt owner
ship has made wonderful advances and
an immense amount OF mileage has
been added to the systems owned by
the nations This is especially true il
Central Europe and in South America
Only four nations of the world are now
without railroads owned by the govern
rnents. While there have been many
books printed to show the fallacy of
government ownership there have been
none to defend it and all the time the
cause has been gaining
