Thousands of people from La
no Springs and immediate neig h.
borhood will see Forepaugh and
Sells grqthers' big circus at Den
yer on Wednesday, Aug. 9, Tran
portation lines are preparing for
the day aud the indications
point to a great circus event.
The Forepaugh and Sells Bro
theirs organizations this season is
remarkably attractive, more so
than ever before in its fifty years
of travel. The performance is be-
ing given by the worlds 400 best
artists, the menagerie has been
newly reorganized and the fornoon
parade is masterwork of pa
geantry. The thrillers of the
show are the double somersault-
ing automobile, the Ty-Bells HUI
man Buttefy" act and the sensa-
tlonal wild riding of the Pajara
family of Gypsies.
Capt. Webb's two troupes of
riding and juggling seals, Taylor $
wonderful monkey and dog circus,
the Hines-Kimball troupe of ac-
robats, the Alvo, the Alpine and
the La Fayette families of aerlists
and the fifty funniest clowns on
earth are few of the more prom
nent features. There over loo
big acts, all novelties and the en-
tire show is newly equipped and
costumed. Over S3,ooo,ooo has
been spent IN building the new
outfit and the result is dazzling.
For many years the Forepaugh
and Sells Brothers circus has
been a pattern of excellence.
This year it is vastly improved and
enlarged. 1t now travels on a
train more than one mile in length
Its many tents cover ten acres
of of ground and it gives en-
ployment to 1,124 men, women
and children. In the menagerie
are 72s of the rarest specimens
of animal life and in the canvas
stables are $50 OF the finest horses
in the world. The parade equip
ment was all built last winter
in the foreign workshops of the
show near Liverpool. The work
was done by the best artists,
designers, sculptors and spectacle
builders of France and Italy.

IN PHILADELPHIA.

PHILADELPHIA is going through the motions
- OF having a municipal campaign for the cleo
ton of a Mayor. The placid waters of ring poll
tics have been somewhat disturbed The trouble
is due TO falling out between leaders. One set
of contractors wanted one man for Mayor and
another set wanted another A so-called nomlna-
ton committee wants a third
Ii all seems to be a question of which body of
contractors shall control the rich pickings that
60 with Philadelphia politics. Had it not been for
the disagreement among the various contractors,
there would probably have been no fight of con-
siderable proportions, not for the Republican NOM
nation, at least.
The leaders of the different bands of contrac-
tors have been firing verbal shots at one another,
thus adding to the gayety of political life in the
quiet city. The people do not appear to be fig
uring in the matter at all. They are simply wait
ing for various. committees to tell them what they
shall do.
The nominating committee has selected a man
for Mayor, who Processes to represent the people.
Judge Beeber says that he is the only candidate
not supported by the contractors, and he has a
platform that reads well. 1t looks as if he should
have the support of those who object TO the pres
ent conditions. Mr.. Earle another aspirant for the
nomination. also scores the contractors, but he is
supposed TO be supported by Contractor McNichol.
Altogether there are indications of lively
scramble for the Republican nomination, and the
successful candidate will have to fight with the
Keystoners for election.
Adding to the interest is the report that a
Pennsylvania Legislative Committee may be call
ed upon TO delve into affairs in Philadelphia Some
thing bordering on comedy is attached TO the an
nouncement that Senator McNieho the big
contractor is one of the investigating commits
soners Mr.. McNiohol will thus be investigating
himself.

IrNREsTRAINED MONOPOLY.

n CCORDING to Every Evening the enactment
1 of the Public Utilities law was direct and
insolent challenge 10 the owners of public utili-
ties in this state and one of them, the Wilmington
and Philadelphia Traction Company, replied by
making the people pay additional car fare for their
"insolence" in presuming that they should have
some control over their own streets. The posi-
ton assumed by the apologist for the Traction
Company is far more arrogant and insolent than
anything that the people through the Legislature
have done.
That attitude assumed by that paper puts the
question up TO the Public Utilities Commission. 1t
is challenge of their rights and peculiar blow at
the entire question Of public control of public
utilities corporations In another article the Every
Evening opposes the granting of franchise to
any new syndicate that might apply for one.
Its position then, is in favor of uncontrolled and
unregulated monopoly. 1t sees no distinction be-
tween a private business that holds no franchises
and public BUSINESS which holds monopolistc
franchises, denying the right of the public in
either case TO interfere.
Under such view the Interstate Commerce Com
mission and everything Of the kind should be abol-
ished and monopoly should be left to prey upon
the people in accordance with its own sweet will.
1t does not take a very facile pen TO explain
what the country would soon degenerate into If
the monopolists we're given free hand. In fact
we have ample illustration of what would happen
in what has taken place here. MANIPULATION OF
securities, water securities, speculation without
limit, and in the end an attempt to force the peo
pie to pay in increased charges on all such inflated
values
Ii is surprising that any newspapers should have
the audacty TO contend that such condition
would be desirable. When manipuators of public
service corporation securities become angels and
not men, they might be trusted TO use such mighty
power as they would have under free field for
unrestrained operations. But the people of the
country recognize the difference between compe-
ttive business enterprises and public service cor
porations, and for that reason has come about the
law of regulation And the necessity for that law
has been fully realized by the enlightened persons
among the owners of public utilities themselves.
But no matter how much the abolition of such
bodies as the Interstate Commerce Commission
might be desired by Every Evening or by any per
son Of a similar way of thinking, such abolition il
cntrey unlikely 10 come. Regulation of public
service corporations in most parts of the countr,
is settled fact If business Of certain kinds i,
marking time because of such regulation, il viii
have TO continue TO mark time There is absoutel,
no indication that the people of this country vii
recede from the position they have taken
