HOW ABOUT THE FAIR VAL
UE" IN THE FUTURE?

The more one studies the financial
reorganization scheme OF the local Gas
Monopoly the more ardent becomes his
admiration for the genius that devised
1t, and the more intense becomes his
interest in the special meeting of stock
holders called for October IA, when the
ingenious plan will be submitted for
approval.
The third proposal of the general plan
is the one that catches and holds the
fancy of him who appreciates the
adroitness Of a slippery public service
corporation, than which there IS none
more slippery than our own little
Washington Gas Light Company. This
Is the proposition by which it is plan
ned, IN the future, to lOp off profits
equal to per cent on the fair value"
OF the property Of the company, said
fair value being naively stated-by
the eompany's oficers-as $4,000 600.
Now please mark that S3.OOO.OOO of
that Sl3,O0O.OOO is the figure put in
by the officials of the company as
franchise value, upon which they con
tend they are entitled to earn profits.
That Is, they claim the right to keep
the price of gas high enough to give
them net earnings of 6 per cent on
the Sl0,0O0,000 Of alleged physical val
ue and the S3,0OO,OOO of alleged fran
chise value.
Suppose they are permitted to per
form this little stunt; suppose they
are allowed to establish, as the basis for
deciding how much they are entitled
TO pay in profits, a valuation of SI3,-
100000, of which $3,OOOOOO is nothing
but their privilege of selling gas in the
District of Columbia-for which moth
ing was ever paid-where VII they
lead US in the future? If the franchise
value is 100000 this year, what will
1t be next year, and the year after, or
ten years hence? Are we to continue
TO permit the company TO earn per
cent on its franchise value, even if
that value increases-as it will-with-
out ever representing anything but the
eompany's right to operate?
II those in control of the company
have their way, this very thing will
happen. Note the proposal, as official
~ stated in the Gas MonOpoly's Wash
ngton organ:

ROMAN JUSTICE.
How Technicalities Were Avoided In
the Courts.

How TschnieaIities Were Avoided In
the Courts.
The bar was an open profession
in ancient Rome. The litigant en-
joyed the utmost latitude in the
choice of an advocate, whose right
to represent his client in court was
fully conceded. Savish imitators
of the Greeks in literature and art,
the Romans asserted their entire
independence in the domain Of law.
Their innovations had the stamp Of
originality. But these did not COM
prise any close connection between
bar and bench. 1t is noteworthy
that during very long period in
the history of Roman law there was
no exact counterpart of our judge.
The magistratus was public Off
cial charged with the administra-
ton Of law. The judex was q spe-
cies Of referee appointed by the
magistrate to hear and report upon
a particular case. Then there was
an arbiter who acted alone or with
Others in arbitration cases (arbi-
tria). Finally there were recupera-
tors who assisted in international
questions.
The hearing before these various
types of judex was called the judi
cum, as distinguished from jus, the
hearing before the magistrates
properly SO called. The names Of
citizens qualified for serving as
JUDGES were inscribed in a public
record known as the album. More
over, litigants had the right of OBJ
lection to particular judex. Not
only so, but this right was extended
during many centuries to criminals,
who were tried before centumvirs
and decemvirs, sitting on the per-
manent tribunals. If the Roman
Bill Skies never thought Of putting
forward the demand of his English
congener that eve all ought to have
voice in making the laws as we
suffer by" yet we may be well as
sured that he would not fail to take
sporting chance, make prime ia
vorite of the judge who was most
reversed on appeal and strenuously
object to the others.
= The point which calls for our
special attention is that none of the
men who discharged the various ju-
dicial or semijudicial functions de-
scribed was drawn, except in most
exceptional cases, from the advo-
cate class. Nor is it possible to
conceive any arrangement better
calculated than that in force in
Rome to exclude their narrow, pro-
fessional technicality from the set
Element of civil cases. The presid-
ing magistrates Of the great GRIM
inal tribunals were seldom or never
men who practiced at the bar. Even
in later times, when functions of
magistratus and judex were merged
in one official, there is evidence
that the bench was recruited from
the bar more frequently than be-
fore.-Exchange.
