Penny Phone Service.-The people
of Chicago may not appreciate it
now, but am sure the time will come
when they will understand that Aid.
Merriam rendered a splendid public
service, in intelligently fighting the
attempt to have council give the
city's consent to the absorption of the
Automatic phone plant by the Bell
phone trust.
L know of no city that has a better
chance to get penny service with a
phone in every home, through NUM-
c1pal ownership, than Chicago has
now.
believe if council will investigate
1t will find that the Illinois Tunnel Co.
has forfeited it's telephone franchise.
If not its tunnel franchise, by failing
to comply with the conditions of that
franchise.
believe also that the Automatic
phone, properly managed, is a better
service than the old-fashioned Bell
phone; and that this city could easily
and economically establish municipal
phone service.
With phone service SO cheap that
there could be a phone in every
home, Chicago people would benefit
more than by any system of subways
that can be devised and paid for.
And believe penny service is easily
possible under municipal ownership.
Aid. Merriam led the fight to save
Chicago from an absolute telephone
monopoly, and the aldermen who aid
ed him also rendered a great public
service.

system in Chicago run for the benefit |
of the people instead of for the en-
richment of stockholders in private

Huerta is rotten. Let Carransa revo-
lutte him out of Mexico. The chances
are that Carranza. will be rotten,
though maybe not as rotten as Huer-
ia. Then about the time Carranza
gets his seat warm and exploits the
people, it will be time for another
revolutionist a little less rotten than
Carranza to drive him out.
In the meantime, the Mexican peo-
pie themselves are learning some
thing while they are fighting. By and
by THEY may get control of the gov
eminent and the land.
Unless in the meantime the big in
terests in the U. S., who are interest
ed in Mexico, stir up enough agitation
through hired newspapers to force in p
tervention. If that happens, then
Uncle Sam will spend thousands of
lives and hundreds of millions of dol
lars conquering the Mexican people,
making them work for Rockefeller,
the steel trust, the smelter trust, the
railroads and other big business in
terests-and civilizing the Mexicans

1t may be necessary to kill off the
Mexicans, so few of us can get their
land and its mineral and agricultural
wealth.
Of course, if we do go to war with
Mexico the Hearsts, Otises, Rockefel-
lers and those who will win dollars
by war won't do any of the fighting.
The working class will do the killing
and the getting killed. The plutes
will do the shouting and the land
grabbing.
The average soldier will meet a SOL
dier's fate:
"a dose of cold lead shot into his
head, and his name spelled wrong in
the papers"
Great is bunk.
