SELF-SUSTA|N|NG?
Commission to Be Appointed to
Investigate Financial Affairs
In Postal Department.

WASHINGTON, March 27.-There
have been many conflicting stories rel
alive to the financial condition of the
postoff1ce department, in that it has
been stated that it is now self-sus-
tanning, while this statement has been
contradicted.
In a recent interview the new post
master general asserts that he intends
to find out for himself whether the
postoffice is on a self-sustaining ba-
sis.
It has been charged that the means
employed to reduce the cost Of opera
ton Of the department has been
through a reduction of the number of
employees, Notwithstanding an in
creased volume of mail matter.
It is stated that a commission COM
posed probably of the various assis-
tant postmasters general and the chief
clerk will make a thorough investiga-
ton, that the public may know the
exact condition Of the postal service.

He mentions certain acreage near
Duluth Heights. It cannot be pur-
chased for less than $1,000 per acre.
This land escapes with an assessed
valuation Of $3.50; it is owned by nom
residents. The taxes on each acre Of
land Is about 80 cents a year. If this
valuation is boosted to the basis Of
valuation made on improved proper
ty, the owner would either improve
the idle land or dispose Of it to peo-
pie who would improve it.
The price would then come down
and workingmen would build homes
upon all such land. Mr.. McEwen
holds that If a just and fair valua-
ton were made, taxes in this city
could be reduced, where they. are
now too high, by at least 25b.

in this city, which has held out against
the striking woodworkers for several
months, has abandoned the contest.
An agreement has been entered in

the cessation of the strike so far as
the company mentioned is concerned.
Union men only are to be employed.
The agreement specifies also that
all imported non-union men shall be
dismissed, and that the strikers shall
be taken back. 49,.
There are still two factories on

very much lower rate than it costs to
furnish such light and amounts to
rebate, and also has the effect of
keeping such patrons quiet and Of
making the other patrons pay more
for their light than they ought to pay.
1t has been for several years the most
corrupting influence in our city poll
tics. demoralizing our officials and
our citizenship.
Demoralizing Influence.
1--WE who went through the numer-
Gus contests with the old gas and
water company we'll remember the
demoralizing influence it exercised in
our city's affairs. INSCRIPTIONS men
in the employ Of the company used
money to corrupt our citizens and city
officials. Aldermen and newspapers
tried to force the city to bond itself
tospay three times what the plant was
worth, to purchase it, and nearly
twice what the plant was finally pur-
chased at. The company's books.
when they came into the possession
of the city, disclosed that some $780,
600 had been used by the company
in an effort to carry two elections.
How much did the Duluth Edison
Electric company spend to create pub
lie sentiment and to persuade city Of
ficials during the year prior to the
February election in 1912? I do not
know how much, but we all know
that it was a large amount.
From the time the city acquired
he nj If 1n
pany that business has been entirely
out Of politics. Favoritism to partic-
ular citizens has been abolished, and
the work has been conducted on a
business basis. The city has not had
to pay for advertising, or for anyone
to go around to create public senti-
ment, or for attorneys to fight the
city's battles. Besides, it has been a
paying investment for the city.
''Clear the Decks"
Quoting from the last annual re-
port of the water and light commits
sioners, I can say: Water rates to
consumers have been reduced fully
one-half and gas rates have been re-
duced from $40 per thousand cubic
feet to IS cents per thousand cubic
feet. The saving alone to the patrons
Of the water and gas department in
Duluth since this plant was acquired,
as compared with the rates which
were charged by the old private COM
pany, which was furnishing poor
water, poor gas, and poor service, has
amounted to $3,170,1S5.74. In other
words, this amount has been left in
the pockets of the consumers of water
and gas in this city since the acquisi-
ton of the plant as compared with
the prices which were charged by the
private company
II have no doubt that under c,tv
ownership of an electric lighting and
power plant a great saving can be
made to our citizens but the greatest
benefit which the citizens will receive
will be the removal of a corrupting
influence in our city politics, and will
clear the decks for conducting an
honest and business-like city admin
istration."

the management of the Duluth street
rail" ay. 1t will not make any extern
sions to the outskirts of the city un-
less it is assured in advance that each
particular extension will be self-sus-
tanning from the beginning, and with
out consideration of the general earn
ings Of the whole system.
Street Railway Company Too.
This is not the policy of the street
railway companies Of other cities, and
particularly in cities where the fran
chises are owned by their citizens.
Minneapolis owes its great growth to
the fact that it's street railway people
extended it's lines into the outskirts
when there were only a few settlers
there. The street car facilities thus
afforded encouraged building and no
city in America shows such growth
as Minneapolis has enjoyed, and
much of it is due to the liberal policy
of it's street railway company in
making extensions. Many OF these
lines ran at loss for year or two.
However, they all show big earnings
now.
In discussing the municipal owner
ship Of an electric lighting plant, Mr..
McEwen says that while all candi-
dates seem to be pledged to it, there
in lay its chief danger. The private
company recognizes that it must dis
pose of its plant to the city. It is
now interested in seeking the cleo
ton of the kind Of men who will be
"safe, sane and conservative and
who will be willing to pay to the pri-
vate company 'liberaf' price for
the plant.
City Lighting Plant.
He advises the people to be on
their guard against such men. The
electric lighting company is entitled
to fair price for it's plant, and no
more. The people had chance to
buy the water and gas plant for
$2,106,000. A majority of the people
voted to purchase the plant at this
price. The friends of municipal own
ership believed it was a high price.
They fought it. They contested it
plant was purchased for $1,25O,OOO, a
saving of 100000.
The principal thing in this fight will
be to effect the same saving in the
purchase of an electric lighting plant.
The success of the municipal owner
ship of an electric lighting plant will
depend upon whether or not the peo-
pie can purchase it at reasonable
price. Mr.. McEwen declares that he
is making the fight for municipal
ownership because he wants to see
the lights in the workingmen's homes
burn just as brightly as they do in
the home of the rich. Under munic-
ipal ownership he declares electricity
will be furnished cheaper than kero-
sene oil now costs.
Mr.. McEwen will speak at Mission
hall, Park Point and at Moose hall,
PA West First street, tonight (Fri-
day. and at Polish hall on Saturday
night.
