MUNICIPAL LIGHTING PLANT.

lTY COUNCIL is starting in a conservative
- manner towards municipal lighting plant,
and the question will be thoroughly examined be-
fore any decisive step is taken The resolution of
Mr. Conway calls for investigation as TO the
advisabiliy of an electric plant merely for munich
pal purposes for furnishing light for the city's
buildings. What may come Of this depends upon
how the municipal plant scheme would work if it
should be decided to operate one.
Council has also determined TO see if the street
car service of the Wilmington and Philadelphia
Traction Company cannot be improved. There has
been disposition on the part of the citizens as
well as Council TO deal lenenty with the company
knowing the difficulties that the new owners have
had TO contend with. When the announcement Of
the change Of owners was made, it was received
with considerable satisfaction by the people be-
cause il was believed that we should have an inn
proved service. And in Trenton, N. j., similar
satisfaction was expressed. when Mr. Rigg re-
tired from the directing chair of the compeny But
Council and the citizens in general will soon be-
gin TO insist upon better service and to see (
Improvements cannot be made without nfcting
hardships on the company
IL seems TO us that Council or the Street and
Sewer Department any other city body should
have authority of some kind over not only the
street railway company but all other public SER
vice corporations The city is entitled TO this be-
cause OF the franchises that such companies Sc

II no city body has any such authority and we
have no public service commission, then the com
panies allowed to do as they please and this
is what they have been doing for years. In almost
every other city some authoritative body has
say in the operations of these corporations Why
not here?
The railway company may contend that it is not
able to make all the Improvements necessary at
once, but we do not believe there is disposition
to place any great Inconvenience on the company
lighting service the company ought to be in bet
ter shape than it has been for years At any rate
1t is to be hoped that the expected Improvement
may not be too long in appearing.

A WORD ABOUT AN OLD SUBJECT.

II He more than two miles Of good road from
II Duck Creek towards Blackpird has been
completed, and it is TO be hoped that the day is
not far distant when the fine highway will be con-
tinued on to Townsend
If the money thrown away in building road
down the neck in Blackbird hundred had been
devoted 10 the State road, another important link
towards good highway from Wilmington to the
county line would have been forged. The bad
road between Ginns Corner and the beginning of
the new road and the bad road just below Glasgow
on the way to Mddletown are the only two
stretches to be finished in order to have fine
tinuous highway from Wilmington to the Kent
line. Doubtless the next step to be taken by the
Levy Court will be TO provide for these stretches
We should have had this highway long ago
if the patch work system of building cross roads
in order to crafty few persons had not been
followed The most used roads are those which
should be repaired all things considered, and
hardly person travels that does not use the State
highway.
Srf with all that, have made considerable
progress in New Castle county towards good roads
aud the people should be thankful.
Nothing makes more unfavorable impression
on persons coming into the State than bad high
ways. The values of farm lands in Kent and Sus-
sex counties have increased considerably of late
and they would increase more it reasonable sys-
tenn of road improvements we're followed. But in
many parts of Kent and in New Castle for that
matter, there are not only no improved highways
but the dirt roads in deplorable condition and
look as if no intelligent work had been put upon
them
The Kent dirt roads should be better than they
are, considering the amount of money spent
them. They will not be better until there is a
county engineer and intelligent plan of inn
proving dirt roads is followed. Many people in
the regions that have ordinary dirt roads complain
that the dirt roads are in bad shape and the tax
payers get nothing for their money paid. IN this
the complainants are mistaken. They get a fine as
sortment of bumps and ruts, with here and there
a small size lake in the middle of the road which
affords ample opportunity for sport on the part
Of ducks and other aquatic fowl.

witness before the Interstate Commerce
Commission the other day showed one effect of the
increase in freight rates and how the Ultimate
Consumer pays all the advances. If the rate is
increased only trife, an aggregate advance in the
cost OF the commodity far in excess of the freight
advances is made, and the CONSUMER pays for the
freight increases three or four times over. The
manufacturer is given an excuse sor advancing
prices, the middle man does the same and the re-
taller piles on little additional so that il is all
blamed upon the railroad company. And the con-
sumer apparently has no relief from extorton OF
this kind But there ought TO be some way to
prevent advances out of proportion to the in
creases, to the high expenses Of transportation
