whether he will take up that profes-

Dazzle Patch Great PAGER.

Dazzle Patch. the sensational three
year-old colt by Dan Patch, owned at
the International farm, in Detroit,
worked mile Aug. 2 in 2:O61a, with
the last half in l:0212. This was the
first extremely fast mile the colt ever
has been allowed to step. Ned McCarr
drove the colt in company with George
Gano, 2:O2 and through the stretch
the youngster was keeping the veteran
race horse mighty busy. 1t was Nc
Carr's idea to let the colt step mile
in whatever notch he would go COM
fortably.
Dazzle paced the mile without urg-
ing and well within himself all the
way. He finished very strong and
was pacing a runaway clip as he fash
ed under the wire. In considering this
wonderful mile one must remember
that Dazzle is only three years old.

PRIVATE WATER WORKS
 UNDER FIRE IN STAMFORD

Stamford, Feb. 29-This city is like ly to have a municipal ownership movement, under the interesting reso- !ution offered by Councilman Thomas F. Burke of the Second ward It au- thorized the Mayor to appoint com mittee of seven men, three from the Common Council and four from the citizenship of the city, the Mayor to be chairman of the committee, the purpose of the committee to be an investigation of water rates not only for municipal service, but also for general service, also an investigation of the desirability of establishing a municipal water works or plant. The committee is to report as soon as pos sible.
 What does this mean? Are you thinking of taking over the water works?'' inquired MT. Jansen.
 That is a matter that should be left to the committee to decide,' an- swered Mir Burke

THE EARTH IS NOT FLAT; THE COST OF PUBLIC
 NPRC CVEMENlS CANNOT BE SHIFTED TO POSTERITY

I THE LIVING WOULD HAVE PAID THE ENTIRE BILL. .. .
 To the generation that built the nothing. Upon the unborn it would inf1ict the expense of three identical bridges.
 The idea that bonds enable the living to save themselves expense at the charge of posterity, is an odd idea that the ordinary man accepts because he has never considered the nature of interest.
 The extreme vagueness of the ideas of our esteemed contemporary are shown in it's implied suggestion that bonds should not run longer than 30 years. or LESS than the life of a single generation.
 Thus does our contemporary dis pose of it's theory that leach genera ation can be made to pay it's proper share.''
 How long can living men postpone paying a sum equal to the amount borrowed for a public improvement, under a thirty year bonding scheme, retiring one thirtieth of the debt Year ly?
 NOT LONGER THAN 16 YEARS.
 In the succeeding If years there will remain to be paid a sum almost as great.
 Bonding, as it is ordinarily done, in Bridgeport and elsewhere means PAYING DOUBLE for everything, means that the generation creating tine debt, pays double.
 Bonding should not be resorted to except in case of absolute necessity. and for the purchase of things which will bring in a profit.

 Last Weeks Wind Storm.
 At Danbury, Wednesday night. the wind was severe, uprooting trees knocking down telephone wires, smash ing windows, overturning one building and unrooing another, and causing more than $5,000. The home of Miles H. Disbrow, in New Fairfield, was burned to the ground, due largely tC the flaming of the flames. A barn it's foundation. Two trees at the farm were upFooted and other damage to the aggregate of $1,0O0 caused.
 Perhaps the greatest havoc in Nor- walk was at the Norwalk Country Club where the ice, aided by the ter rife wind, smashed the pies from un- der the bath houses, letting the if teen houses in the front row drop on to the ice which had been blown in by the wind. In addition to this the ice smashed the stone breakwater which shelters the bathing beach, moving the huge stones as if they were peb- bles. The automobile shed was nov ed about three feet.
 Men Beat Boys
 Tony Crabosh, a Polander, is un- der arrest at Greenwich, and Sheriff Finnigan with a posse is searching for John SIausky, a -Polander, in con- school boys. It is charged that the men beat the boys with clubs because they thought the boys were mocking them. One of the boys was severely cut about the head.
 Caught in Time.
 When three men attempted to sell a horse and rig owned by Liveryman William T. Williams, of Saugatuck, in Lyons Plains, Thursday, they were trapped by the man who might have made the purchase, for he recognized the horse and team as the property of MT. Williams. He did not tell the men of his discovery, but went into the house after the cash and while there telephoned Mir Williams. The men were allowed to depart on the men came to MT. Williams stable in the morning and wanted the team to peddle fish about WeStport. They evil dentIy got out of the territory which dispose of the horse by selling him.

At the end of the financial year 1899-1900 the outstanding local debt of England and Wa-es amounted to e293, 1864, PA.
 At the end of the financial year 1904 O5, it was e466, ,459, ,269.-British Munich pal Year Book.
 The debt of the municipalities fn- creased 50 per cent, the taxation in creased 125 per cent. Could there be a more telling proof of the frightful cost of municipal socialism than is given in these official fgures?-F'ree Press.
 This is just perfectly awful The way these English cities have run into debt is a frightful example of municipal socialism" from which Bridgeport should take warning. And the worst of it is that the English cities insist on continuing this "disas- trous'' policy, and are taking over other municipal enterprises as fast as they can. As the taxpayers run these British cities and as they are soIicitous as to the cost of conduct ing the activities of these municipal ities, what can they be thinking of in piIing up this debt? Have they gone crazy?
 However, the Municipal Year Book for 1907, has an answer to the charge that these enterprises are a burden to the taxpayers. It says:
 Taking the really remunerative en- terprises, such as gas works, markets and TRAMWAYS, it will be found that they earn in England and Wales d clear profit of over S,643, APO, and in Scotland of nearly $3O4,23 equal to 8 return on capital of per cent. in the former case and of 1 1-2 per cent in the latter. Tested by the commercial or company standard, the gross profits shown in England and Wales is $70,- 273, ,135, and in Scotland approximately SS, ,057, ,SS0 or about 1-4 and 1-2 per cent. respectively on the outstanding capital.
 This Year Book is not the only source from which to obtain infor- nation as to the proftabIeness of British municipal enterprises. Ac- cording to Sir Henry FowIer's Re turn of Reproductive Undertakings" brought down to 1902, the franchise undertakings proper had repaid in- debtedness out of their earnings in the sum of s59,924,sO3, and the am ount in the sinking fund for the same purpose amounted to S1s,396,9 ,9Sl. This" says Frederick G. Howe, in

'-In theory it (the city) may then undertake to construct public works ~"*and purchase property which will be used by several generations of men. and to raise the required sums by bor- rowing in such a manner that each generation will be made to pay it's proper share of the cost"
 Thus says the Bridgeport Post, in an article favoring the creation of a bonded debt for Bridgeport.
 The Post is wrong.
 Neither in practice nor in theory can Bridgeport borrow money for pub lie works to be used by several gen. erations of men in such a manner that each generation will pay it's proper share of the cost.
 A generation Is a single step in the succession of natural descent, the pe- riod in which son succeeds father. A generation is usually regarded as third of a century.
 A public improvement like the Con eress street bridge may last hun dred years, and serve the uses of three generations of men.
 But there is no way of issuing bonds so that Each generation will pay its proper share of the cost"
 That might be done if money could he borrowed without interest.
 But Bridgeport is paying interest at the rate of four and one quarter per cent. on it's most recent loans.
 Assume this bridge to be built from money borrowed on bonds maturing in q hundred years, borrowed at four and quarter.
 At the end of 25 years interest charges alone would equal the cost of the structure. .... .... .... ....

Business Methods Used By Dupont
 To Get Elected
Senator Reed Details Charges Affecting Seat of United States Senator.
Especial from United Press.)

NSpeclal rom OnlJeQ TreSS.)
 Washington. Feb. 29-Arguing in support of his resolution for an in- vestigation of the election of Sena- tor H. A. Dupont, of Delaware, Sem ator Reed. of Missouri, yester- day asserted that "an investigation ought to be carried on and any at. tempt to evade it would be construed as effort to elude the truth"
 Of the men alleged to have handed out the money, Reed said:
 These gentlemen appear not only to politics but to have observed eV. cry regulation of up to date com mercial accounting. An office was established. a set of books were open ed and active young gentlemen em- ployed to do business with the vot- ers.''
 As to buying of votes, Reed said:
 "Of course, this testimony may all be destroyed or discredited to the point of unbelief, but such is the state of the record.
 ''The testimony must be given cred- ence until it is disproved and enough appears here to demand an investiga- tion into the election of 1910. Fur thermore, enough appears to require an explanation of the Senator's act in recommending for appointment as marshal a man whom he knew to be engaged in corrupt practices. Such a recommendation was an offense against the Senate
 ''The Senate cannot afford to close its eyes to the plain course of duty, in view of these startling and appal- ling diSclosures.''
