SPARKS STANDS BY
THE TREE TRIMMER

In reply to criticism made by a
resident of the city signing himself
PRO Bono PublicO," which appeared
i'm a morning newspaper Saturday, in
which Melvin S. Blower, city forester,
is mentioned, President Sparks, of the
Street and Sewer Department issued
a statement.
The criticism pointed out that Mr..
Blower had recently stated to a resi-
dent Of Broome street while cutting
his trees that he had the authority
to cut them down and throw them
away, altogether. if he wanted to.
PRO Bono Publico" also stated that
Mr.. Blower claims that shade trees
must be planted thirty feet apart.
Mr.. Sparks in reply says:
"In justice TO Mr.. Blower, whether
the trimming of the trees in Broome
street, was accurate or inaccurate, he
was not in the employ of this de-
partment when that work was done.
This department also never made a
rule to insist on trees being planted
thirty feet apart" "The proper time
for trimming a tree" concluded Mr..
Sparks. 'ts when the knives are
sharp"

BUSINESS FOR PEACE.

THE WORLD PEACE FOUNDATION in Bos-
i ton has received strong resolutions endors-
ing President Tafts negotiation of the unreserved
arbitration treaty with Great Britain from 1873 Of
the leading Boards of Trade and Chambers of
Commerce in the United States; and every mail is
bringing similar resolutions from other CONNER
cial bodies. Many of them are accompanied by
warm and earnest personal letters from the pres
dents or secretaries of the various organizations
These bodies represent the almost unanimous
sentiment of the leading business men of their
several cities, and the cities already thus heard
from have a combined population of 100000
The resolutions and many Of the accompanying
letters will be forwarded the Foreign Relations
Committee of the Senate. The Chambers Of Com
meroe in Great Britain and France are expressing
themselves as earnestly as our American organiza-
tions.
1t is expected that the visit to Europe of the
great body OF representatives of American Cham
bers Of Commerce will be the occasion everywhere
of impressive and influential demonstrations in
behalf of universal arbitration and international
fraternity

COMPETITION IN
PUBLIC UTILITIES

Editor of THE EVENING JOURNAL.
II is amazing how persistent the old
idea that the only way to bring an op-
pressive Public Service Corporation to
terms is TO grant another franchise to
an opposing company, thereby bring
ing about what the advocates of this
species OF destructive commercial
warfare vainly believe is competition.
The writer has thought about this
matter considerably and has finally
settled down to the conviction that
competition in Public Utilities is final
ly an impossibility. AS a matter of
fact he is convinced that a system con-
templating the regulation or the get
ting of anything like justice from Pub
lie Utilities under such plan has been,
is and always will be abortive, for it
means purely, simply and wholly un-
regulated monopoly and nothing else.
The writer believes that the evils
that have grown out of the manipula-
tion of the stocks of the Public Service
Corporations is nearing a solution, 1t
is no small problem it is true, but the
writer thinks he can see the sunrise
and the wind blowing from the right
direction. He forecasts fair weather
tomorrow. In this adjustment and set
tlement the one great difficulty that
will have to be overcome, he thinks,
will be the settlement for the multi
plicity of plants that have been ac-
quired under this fallacious system Of
competition the advocates of which i'm
agine that the way to reduce ex-
penses is to multiply the interest
charges for the same service.
Wilmington today has two street
railway companies and one of them
will take the average citizen wherever
he wants to go. If we leave out of the
discussion two or three hours during
the rush time of the day, the cars run
ming east and west and across town
would carry all the traffic The saving
here would be tremendous and then
there, Is the additional advantage OF
only having one-half Of the streets
used by car lines with their noise and
dust and other annoyances.
How much better it would have beer
If the authorities, when the Peoples
Line asked for a franchise, had gone
to the managers of the other com
pany and informed them that they
could have monopoly if they would
enter into a monopoly contract thai
would equitably conserve the interest
of the community, and, at the same
time, the corporation.
What is true of the railways is alsC
true of the electric lighting companies
There are three or four plants in Viii
mington, the original capitalization o.
any one being sufficient to establish
maintain and operate power houses
and lines sufficient to supply all th'
needs of the city. These plants are
now concentrated ..nder one compan,
and the value, not only physical, bu
the franchise value as well. is con
centrated in the capital stock of th'
Wilmington and Philadelphia Trac
ton Company and the energy an'
genius of that company is exerting 1t
self constantly to pay dividends, no
only on what these companies ar
worth, but on what a company tha
never relaxes in it's desire for mon
opoly thought it was worth to keel
what might be an ugly rival from thei
field. Yours truly,
John S. Hamilton,
Wilmington, Del, Sept. Q, 1O11.

CUNNING ACCIDENTS.
Newark Ledger.

Newark Ledger.
The annual crop of deaths by gun
ming accidents will be as large as
usual. The careless handling of fire
arms is usally the result OF so many
deaths. Then so many parents allow
their boys TO handle deadly
weapons" and the result is recorded
daily.
There will be accidents as long as
incompetent people handle fire arms.
SO many people do not realize the
danger that turks in gun. Il is an
innocent looking device, but terrible
in its death dealing power when not
handled in the right way.
Then there are so many deaths by
one gunner shooting another. The
number of deaths in this manner Will
out number others. The deaths in this
manner are pure carelessness and
thoughtlessness.
But what is the use of discussing
these things? Every man and boy be-
lieve they are able to take care of
themselves, and therefore, what is the
use Of putting up warning signals.

You men and women who somehow
can't get feeling right-who have an
almost daily headache, coated tongue,
foul taste and foul breath, dizziness,
cant sleep, are bilious, nervous aud
upset, bothered with sick gassy, dis
order stomach, or have backache and
feel all worn out.
Are you keeping clean inside with
Cascarets, or merely forcing a pas
sageway every few days with salts,
cathartic pills or castor oilg This is
important.
Cascarets work while you sleep;
cleanse and regulate the stomach, re-
move the sour, undigested and fer
menting food and foul gases; take the
excess bile from the liver and carry
out of the system all the decomposed
waste matter and poison in the intes-
tines and bowels.
A Cascaret tonight will straighten
