LIGHT ORDINANCES ARE PASSED
City Council Receives Application For
Passage of Switch Track Ordinance
But Property Owners Must be Settled
With.

The hopes of many people living on
streets in the resident district of the
city that they would be able to force
the public utility companies of the city
to place conduits on these streets when
they were improved received a rude
shock at the meeting of the common
council on Monday evening when the
officials of the Wisconsin Gas and Flee
trio Company appeared before the
council to protest against the order
directing conduits in Division and
West Park streets which are slated to
be paved during the coming season.
The company urged the city to abro-
gate the order for conduits and de-
clared its intention if necessary to APP
peal to the railroad commission to have
the Kenosha ordinance declared unrea-
sonable so far as these streets were
concerned. Attorney Chester d. Barnes
deeply into the case. He asserted that
the cost of putting in the under ground
work would cost the company for Divi
sion street $S,292 and that this would
make provision for the removal Of but
twelve of the nineteen poles on the
street. He showed that the company
would have to give up its gross rev.
enue from patrons on the street for a
period of twenty eight years in order
to meet the first cost of installation
On Park street the total cost would be
5000 for the removal of eleven poles
and it was shown that the gross
revenue of the company for term of
nearly ten years would be necessary to
pay for the cost of this installation.
Mr.. Barnes produced a decision of the
railroad commission citing a case. in
the city of Madison which had many
similarities to the Kenosha situation
The city council of Madison had order
ed the wires under ground on two
streets on an ordinance almost identi-
cal to the Kenosha ordinance. The
company appealed to the commission
and the commission held that the ordi-
nance was unreasonable and void so far
as it related to the questions of the
streets covered by the appeal to the
commission. The council took no final
action in the matter and it was laid
over until the next regular meeting at
which time City Attorney Slater will
render an opinion as to the rights of
the city in the light Of the decisions
sof the railroad commission

Want Property Rights Protected.

The first of the series of ordinances
to provide for changes in the tracks
of the Chicago and Northwestern Rail
way Company was presented to the
council and the council gave it long
discussion. With 1T was presented a
protest from property owners in the
territory through which the proposed
switch tracks will run in which they
declared that they We're to s,iffer dam
ages from the building of the tracks
They insisted that the council demand
that the company settle with them for
actual damages caused before final ac-
ton was taken on the ordinance. The
ordinance was given its first reading
and the property owners protesting were
instructed to appear at the next meet
ing of the council. As the options
which the company have taken on the
properly for right of way will expire
on February goth it is hoped that the
ordinance can be finally acted upoL at
the next meeting of the council. Mayor
Head has declared his willingness to
take up the matter of damages for the
property owners with the officials of
the company and it is probable that
there will be some agreement reached
before the ordinance comes up for final
passage. Every member of the coun-
ell declared himself favorable to the
plan for re-arranging the tracks of the
railway company, but they insisted
that the property owners who sustain
ed damages must be fairly treated by
the company.

STRONG MARKET NEEDED

Sentiment In Stock Exchange circles
was somewhat depressed at the close Of

reach any conclusion at the recent de-

ing the Stock Exchange. II Is now taken
for granted that the visit OF the British
representatives TO confer with authorities

suit In this regard. This Is explained on
the ground that the activities of the

that the British command OF The seas may

Political Ignorance OF business.

II was a fundamental assumption in the
Democratic legislative programme in the
long Congress that American business
could not be trusted to work except In
governmental harness and that only by a
detailed regulation OF business conduct by
Government could the popular welfare be
guaranteed, Analogios from a hobgohlln
wonderland supplied the dialcctic IN which
business institutions were discussed. The
tariff Jaws, the corporate organization OF
business and the banking system were
portrayed az Jungles In which monstrosi-
ties OF crafty greed waited to prey upon
their victims who were too fettered by
the chains and shackies OF state of slav-
cry to save themselves
Another fundamental concept OF the Ad.
mlnistration was that business must be
so arranged under governmental guidance
as TO take the country back TO days now
almost forgotten when American genius
and initiative were made rich by the ac-
tivities OF multitude" The whole pro-
gramme OF tho Wilson Administration in
relation 70 business has been romarkabl
medley OF fanciful recollections OF an
imaginative golden age decorated with the
tenets OF an expurgated socialism. Ap-

Many other suggestions Of a similar
nature have been discussed In the recent
past. II was suggested that n cash
market should be established for stocks in
a limited way, excluding the International
list and permitting trades only within
"A certain limit. II was also proposed that
n big pool should he formed for buying
securities to which public participation
would be asked. thus performing tho

demand one prominen: banking author
ity offered the opinion that liquidation OF
foreign owned securities should be allowed
on the understanding that payment be
made by the establishment of credits on

parently the country made up Ne mind
months ago that II did not like the pro-
gramme and II was only kept from ex-
pressing its mind fully last Tuesday by
apprehension lest the expression be mis-
construed in the circumstances OF the
European war.
Time alone will show whether the po-
ltical intention OF the country Is that
there shall be no further business Grip
ping experiments In the governmental
domain or whether It Is intended also
that much experimentation to which
the country has been governmentally COM
mtted shall be modified or abandoned al
together. In any event the election re-
turns make a distinct contribution to that
recovery OF domestic confidence by the
business and financial community without
which there can be no satisfactory re-
covery OF trade, industry and values.
More than anything else the conclu-
sions which the election permits AFFORD a
basis for the recovery OF investment con-
hdence. The Republican party Is united
again and in the competition between
parties the Investor can feel reasonably
sure Of coming into his own. Unless the
Democratic party can demonstrate In the
course OF the next two years that IL under
stands the essential nature OF business
1t Is altogether likely that tho Republicans
will have a chance to give proof OF their
business comprehensions. Neither one
party nor tho other can consider Itself
the appointed instrument OF BroVldenCo
TO secure the economic salvation OF the
American people, but no party can get
and keep control of the Government to-
day which does not recognize the foun-
dalton Of economic enterprise in the hope
of profit No fantastic theory OF a reward
for service can be made 10 substitute for
this
As long as society Is industrially organ
lied on the basis of private capital, eco
monte progress and prosperity are utterly
dependent on sufficient incentives for the
accumulation of capital which In turn de-
ponds on sufficient Inducements for the in
vestment OF capital. Money will not be
saved unless society makes It worth while
TO save Il. and society can only make saw
ing worth while by permitting a large
freedom Of investment opportunity. I'm
less money is both saved and invested
there is no new enterprise, and without

has been discovered this year. that the
