The more a mans success raises
him above his neighbors the more
it. forces him to depend on himself
for moral support But no man
ever grows so self-reliant, and so
much the master of events, that he
does not still feel the need of SYM
pathy from kindly hearts. Success
sometimes makes the need of sym
pathy all the more emphatic, be-
cause the rest of the world imagines
the successful man beyond the need
of it.-Past Great Sachem White of

The old lady from the country
and her small son were driving to
town, when huge motor car bore

badly frightened, and began to
prance, whereupon the old lady

the chauffeur, screaming at the top
of her voice.
The chauffeur stopped the car and

MUNICIPAL RAILWAY
LINE PAYS DIVIDEND

CALGARY, ALBERTA, Sept 90
The high water mark of SIS, 1857 60
was struck by the gross earnings OF
the Calgary Municipal Railway for
the month OF July of this year.
The net profits OF the system for
the month totaled $14,4l0.s4, in spite
of the fact that expense of operation
has increased on account of the con-
struction of many outlying lines and
generous increase in the wages Of
employees, which was given this
spring.
The revenue OF the system per car
mile for the month OF July was 27,551
cents, while the operating expenses
per car mile were 1891 cents. This
shows a good margin of profit.

Graft and Inefficiency Of the Party
System Is Lifted From the
Town'C Citizens.
BOSSES ARE WIPED OUT
Some Successful Moves Made
Since Redemption of MuniCi-
paIity From Old Parties,

MILWAUKEE. Sept 2o-One %
the features OF the redemption o:
Wisconsin that has not attracted great
attention IS the rescue Of Milwaukee
from partisan politics. Long before
the Socialists broke in here as ad-
miniStrators Of the city. by the cleo
tion Of 1910. party lines really had
ceased to exist
Party tickets appeared in the vari-
Gus municipal elections, but they were
put up by the men who had no poll
tics other than desire to control the
city for special purposes and who
worked the political parties az man
ikins.
1t was the same old game and the
same old rule by the special interests,
disreputable elements and politicians
who gave the city inefficient. as well
as dishonest administration. Here
things got 80 bad that city officials
were indicted and bundled of to pris-
on and the administration Of MayOr
Rose became notorious. Here the
say the real supporters Of Rose were
always the tory" Republicans, in
stead Of the Democrats. II was a
great illustration Of the fact that par
tisan lines are worked in municipal
affairs purely as a fetish.
lhlUEH went dlbuE lllN way uulll
three years ago Milwaukee was forced
over to the Socialist marty TO escape
the old partisan control.
The next was taken last year whom
the people who had debated the Old
Republican and Democratic partisan
crowd by using the Socialist party
showed aside the old-time bosses and
brought out OF the wreckage a ticket
composed of good men, running on
pledge TO scrape off the political bar
nacles and put the city administra-
ton on as nearly as possible the basis
OF large, well-managed corpora
ton.
The candidates on this ticket were
pledged not to be partisan II elected
10 Office and not to take any part In
partisan politics while holding office
further than to cast their votes.
Speaking broadly. the Socialists had
given the city an honest administra-
ton though there is always the ques-
ton OF whether Il was an able on.
The same honesty OF administration
has been continued, but the partisan
ties which held the Socialists have
been Topped off, and efficiency has
been introduced.
