HAS THE PUBLIC ANY RIGHTS?

IF THE order OF the Wilmington and Philadel-
i phia Traction Company Withdrawing the strip
tickets stands, despite what the authorities, the
Public Utilities Commission may do, the people
of the city will be paying for the mistakes of the
past.
Years ago franchises for the use of the streets
were granted without proper restrictions. Manipu-
lators of securities of public service corporations
were not restrained The people had practically
no voice in the matter. Franchises secured by the
companies we're used as capital What the people
gave without proper restriction was used as
means of exploiting the givers. The people gave
the franchises and they prove to be boomerang.
Not only the people, but the present owners OF the
Wilmington and Philadelphia Traction Company
find themselves in grievous trouble.
There is a similarity between the situation here
and that of the Delaware City trolley line, with the
difference that the Delaware City Company decided
to quit business, but this the Wilmington and
Philadelphia Company, of course, will not do.
{ 1t may be said that the recalling of the mis-
takes of the past will do no good, that the present
is what concerns us. But the recalling of the
past is useful as showing the bearing the future
Some time ago The Journal believed that just
such an issue as that which confronts the
people with respect to the increased rates would
come up, and il believed that the rights OF the
people we're not properly protected. The only
method known to preserve these rights was by
means of a Public Utilities Commission We have
such commission now, and it is for that body to
handle the situation.
1t is the duty of the Public Utilities Commis
sioners to make a thorough investigation of COM
plants that will be formally presented to them
about the increase of the trolley II is their
duty TO look after the interests of the public in
connection with the matter-to be the impartial
Judge 1t is the duty TO examine below the sur
face, to consider the question in all its bearings,

company shall know where it stands and the peo-
pie shall know what their rights are--if they have

{ Summer washing means days discom-
fort every ek-unless you use
Fels-Naptha soap.
A hot fire on a summers day is heart
breaking; every woman knows it. If you
wash with Fels-Naptha you don't need
hot fire. Boiling is unnecessary.
Fels-Naptha will clean the clothes bet
ter and quicker in cold or lukewarm water
than any other means. That is why
Fels-Naptha is not only soap, but
different way of washing.
No boiling. No hard-rubbing on wash
board to heat you up. No time wasted.
Makes your white clothes whittier and
sweeter than you can get them in any other
way: Wet the things, soap freely with

minutes; then rub lightly, rinse and hang

SENATOR CLAPP TO VISIT SUSSEX.

4 LEAGUE is conducting an active campaign
in this state of an educational nature Not long ago
Senator Owen Of Oklahoma addressed gathering
at Shcllpot Park, and another distinguished visi-
tor to Delaware will be Senator Clapp OF Mime
sofa, who is TO speak this evening at Lau-
rel and Bethel camp.
Senator Clapp is one Of the foremost Progressive
Republicans in the higher house at Washington,
and it should be a treat to hear him discuss this
live topic The initiative and referendum has been
adopted in nine states, and FIVE other common
weaths to vote on it at the next election. The
recall has also been adopted in some states.
In letter TO one of the Sussex county papers
Mr. w. W. Knowles declares that it is important
that our people be informed on these matters. He
says they really non-partsan and questions for
all good citizens 10 consider,
1t is a splendid idea to have such speakers as
Senator Clapp deliver addresses at camp meetings
and at other places during the summer months,
between campaigns when partisan feeling is not
high and when citizens are more likely to judge
matters on their merits.

neighbors OF Delaware We we're barbar-
community that needed the guiding hand of
our neighbors. The latter busy reforming
us. They will now have an opportunity to reform
themselves, as most neighbors always have if they
would only think so.
There was not the provocation for the lynching
of the negro Watson as there was-for the lynching
of White. But that is no palaton for the Della
ware lynching 1t merely shows that mob spirit
was excited in Chester county more easily than in
Delaware.
To think of stad Chester county bearing the
burden of such lynching. Chester county has
for years denounced the South for its mistreat-
ment of negroes. Chickens come home to roost
and the chickens that have returned to Ches
ter county large and fat-Chester County-it
is hardly believable, will now hang her head in
shame, but if Chester county we're stricter in the
enforcement of her laws perhaps such crime as
that of Saturday night would not stain the pages
of her history.
But Good Chester county Myl My Worse
by far than Delaware. Cast not your looks of
scorn at US any longer. Clean your own house
and wear your ashes of humiliation with becom-

And the Philadelphia newspapers so prim and
sanctimonous about everything that pertains to

Ever since the Public Utilities law was enacted
there has been cry in certain quarters that the
law was the work of "faddists" that there was
absolutely no desire on the part Of the people for
II and no demand for its enactment Well, as
suming that to be true, we are inclined to think
that public sentiment now heartily approves the
measure. The only way some people can be brought
to think is TO tap their pocketbooks TO hit them
squarely between the eyes The increase in the
trolley company rates hits about every man, woman
and child in the city If il makes them think liz
tie on public questions il will have served use
fuI purpose at least.
