UNION SQUARE TO
BE ''WHITE WAY"
Lamp Exhibit by Companies
Competing For Street Light
ing Contracts

Union Square. which used to be a
part of the old red light district, is
soon to be a little white Way" 1t
is to be used by competing firms who
want to secure the contract for fur
nishing the city with It's secondary
system of street lighting. The bulk
of the lighting under the new contract
will undoubtedly be done by the use
Of gas and gasoline lights the same
as used by the present contractors.
There is strong probability, how
ever, that hundred or more tungsten
(electric) lamps will be contracted for.
The companies that will erect sample
lamps in competition are the United
Illuminating Co.. the American Street
Lighting CO. of Baltimore, and the
Welsbach Lighting Co. of Philadel-
phia. All of the companies represent
their lamps to be 25 candle power.
If the winner of the contract keeps
his lamps in as good trim as the
sample lights will be kept between
now and next Thursday, when the
bids will be opened, there will be nc
cause of complaint by the citizens.

public expenses. There were other
issues urged by certain men in certain
localities, but the four which I have
mentioned We're the leading ones in
general way, and of all of these,
that relating to the tariff is much the
most important.
1t is my belief that the Democrats
will redeem their promises touching
all these questions. The last two
Democratic House caucuses one a
caucus of the members-elect of the
Sixty-second Congress, the other the
caucus of the Democratic members of
the Sixty-first Congress. were the two
most harmonious ever held in Wash
lngron.
THE Republicans still hold the Sen
ate and the White House'-there is
the crux of the situation. Not only
can the Senate Republicans block
Democratic measures, but the White
House can interpose vetoes. 1t is al
ready predicted that if House meas
ures can secure a Senate majority
with the aid of Progressives, the Re-
publican regulars will filibuster, and
a regular being in the chair, with
chances of success. In the House,
with Ex-Speaker Cannon on the floor,
with Expert Pafliamentarian Kinds
among the regulars, and with the aid
of former members of the Rules COM
mittee, the Republican regulars can,
and probably will, exhaust the intri-
cacies of parliamentary obstruction to
check or defeat fulfilment of the
promises of last years Democratic
campaign.
1t is difficult situation which con-
fronts the Democratic House. The
majority can only do it's best. and If
that best does not meet the views of
the Republican Senate and White
House. based largely upon the needs
of the Republican Presidential cam
paign of next year, it will probably be
defeated, either by Senate votes or
White House vetoes.
The Democratic House can only full
fill pledges to the best of its ability
and then, If baked by Republican OPP
position, submit it's case to the people
in 1912.

AyOWED PURPOSES OF
THE MEXICAN INSURRECTOS

The purposes for which the Mexican
tnsurrectos are fighting are-that Is
Same of them-commendable They
Demand that the reelection of Pres
ident Dia1 last year be set aside and
o new election, with a free ballot,
ordered. 1t has long been charged
efaa4 Mexican elections were not free,
but were cut and dried affairs. with
their results determined in advance.
Other demands of the insurrectos in
uiude abolition Of Presidential re-elec-
lions. election instead Of appointment
az governors and mayors, reform OF
the land laws so that the present
immense plantations may be divided
and sold In small lots, a free ballot,
conservation of individual rights, and
extension of the school system.
Should these purposes be effected,
nearly the whole governmental system
would be changed, and in the direc-
ton of popular rule Mexico would
become q republic in fact as well as
name, with opportunities for the COM
mon people to become land owners and
70 secure education for their children.
Such purposes appeal to American
sentiment which ever approves better
rnents IN popular conditions. The only
doubt is as to the capacity of the
present generation in Mexico for such
free government as Is proposed by the
insurrectos. There is grave doubt
upon this matter, but it must be ad-
mitted that there must always be a
starting point for every reform.
The long rule Of President Dias has
admittedly been of an autocratic char
acter. despite it's republican form, and
the excuse given has always been that
the people were uneducated and tur-
buient and could only be restrained to
peace and order by the strong arm.
Cnder Diaz. Mexico has enjoyed a
protracted period Of freedom from in
ternal disturbances, and of prosperity
but for, 1t is charged, its wealthy
classes only
If IL were certain that no Interior
purposes, inimical to this country. are
behind the avowed objects of the in
surrection, American sentiment would
undoubtedly approve the action of the
insurrectos.

HAD 10 CHILDREN;
MARRIED 10 YEARS
Five Sets of Triplets, Two of Twins;
13 Living, All Boys.

Highland, Kan, March 1S.-Mr.
and Mrs. Frank Scott are preparing
to leave for their new home in Okla
homa, a. farm near Muskogee They
are the parents of nineteen children,
all of them boys and thirteen of them
living. They hold the record on trip
let's, having five sets to their credit,
and two sets of twins. All of the
thirteen boys living are under five
years of age.
Last December Mrs. Scott and her
thirteen boys returned from a visit in
Omaha on one first class railroad
ticket. The conductor made a vigor-
Gus protest and was satisfied only
when Mrs. Scott dug down into her
valise and extracted the family Bible,
in which was recorded the names and
ages of the children. The mother
and children occupied five double
seats in the home seekers car and
paid for but one under the rule al

state Tax Commissioner Corbin is an
nue.. He now suggests the appoint
ment of a commission to investigate
the states financial condition and to
study the entire subject of State reve-
nue.. He has also suggested change
in the law providing for a per cent.
tax, or $4,000 fiat. on business of ex-
press companies in this State. The
$4,000 alternative he would cut out,
for the reason that the company has
been paying 1t. while the per cent
provision would increase it's tax to
$4,000.
The proposed commission would re-
port to the General Assembly of 1913,
or two years hence. and it would
probably devote its attention to the
ascertainment of new bases for taxa
ton. or to the possibility of increasing
present taxes, or both.
There Is pending a bill for the crea-
ton of a State board, to be charged
with some measure of supervision
over appropriations. In so far as this
would mean a reduction of expendi-
lures. 1t is meritorious. even though
the cost of the boards maintenance
might be considerable.
The difference between the Corbin
suggestion, and the Chandler bill is
that the former looks toward increased
revenue. and the latter toward de-
creased expenditures. Might it not
be good policy to give the latter trial
before adopting the former? If ex-
penditures can be sufficiently reduced,
and Gov. Baldwin evidently believes
that they can be, new bases for taxa
ton or increases in present taxes
would be unnecessary 1t might even
De that some of the present taxes-for
instance. the direct tax on the towns
could be abandoned.
The experiment is worth trying.
Something must be done to check the
constantly increasing expenditures.
and 1t may be that the State board,
proposed by the Chandler bill, can find
that something. Until it fails, the
Corbin suggestion may wisely be
she1ved. as calculated rather to invite
extravaganza by supplying more reve-
nue. than to promote the better pur-
pose OF economy.
