ION IN THE GOOD WORK

We present an article on our first
page showing the methods adopted
by the corporations in the efforts to
discredit municipal ownership of pub
lie utilities. The fact is that municipal
ownership attacks one of the most
profitable of the fields of exploitation
hitherto held by private capital, and
for that reason every effort is made
by the corporations to make it APP
pear that private enterprise is super
nor in handling these great utilities.
Wherever municipal ownership, is es-
tablished the effort is made to make
it failure and the management is
met by every form of opposition that
the ingenuity of lawyers backed by
the money of greedy financiers can de-
wise. And whenever a campaign is
inaugurated in any field for municipal
ownership, every effort is made to
show that such ownership would in
evitably fail and the vested interests
affected fight for the continued exis-
fence of their system of exploitation,
without regard to any rules of fair
ness or justice.
The all-sufhcient argument in favor
of municipal ownership of public utili-
lies ID NOlldllCO III TIC lat lildl tihCSC
utilities are necessarily monopolistic
in eharacter-and that private mon
opoly is intolerable. The various
commissions for the control of util-
ity corporations show the utter abb
surdity of these utilities being in pri-
vate hands. The commissions were
made necessary because unregulated
monopoly will inevitably charge "all
the traffic will bear" which one of
the magnates asserted was the early
day method of fixing railroad freight
rates. An unregulated public utility
is now Utterly out of the question, and
a regulated one will be found to be
an anomoly in the business world.
This fact is being driven home to the
public and to the investors alike, and
the next step must be public owner
ship. And this step is being taken in
all progressive cities.
In Boise, at present, conditions

The Open Column
Toe Many Universities.

Editor The Missourian: Some phil
anthropist has well said there are
too many universities. Many states
make the serious mistake of dividing
their state schools. They don't con-
centrate on one to make it a worthy
institution. All normals and state
maintained high schools could be
more economically and better main
tanned at one central location. If 1t
be held that this would take the
schools away from the people, let the
state pay the railroad fare to and
from the centrally located place. This
would equalize location and bring the
university to every mans town, and
supply the best of instruction to all
in the high school rank. This should
apply only to those who have no high
school at home.
What may at first seem radical is

The Literary Trawler


A holiday is play; just that. Scien-
tific gentlemen tell us, l know. that
the play of young creatures is really
one of the natures most practical ef-
forts. A kitten larking with a cotton
reel, they say, is training its nerves,
it's eyes. its muscles, its claws to cap
ture mice and other small deer when
the time shall come for it to earn its
own living; and that when small boys
get up mock fights with each other
they are preparing themselves In the
best of all possible ways for the un-
doing of Hackenschmidt.
That's all true enough, of course,
but the point is that neither kittens
nor small boys are conscious that
they are doing anything useful. They
don't do il because they feel 1t to be
useful. They do It just because IT
amuses them-and that perhaps is the
best of reasons for doing anything.
Play, which is anything but play, is
not play at all. That is why the in
fallible judgment of children always
condemns and resents instructive
games, games that teach geography,
history, scripture, or what not.
1t sheds a little light too upon pro-
fessionalism, doesn't it? But l
won't go into that now. except to
throw out the dictum that the phrase
professional player" is a contradic-
tion in terms. Just so far as play is
a profession it ceases to be play

THE GERMAN EXPLANATION.

The rash acts of the shepherd son
of an ancient king brought two ma
tions into a war which resulted in the
destruction of Troy. The unwar-
ranted conduct of the fiery Command
er Max Thierichens of the German
cruiser, Prinz Eitel Friedrich, has
brought the United States and the
German Empire into a diplomatic
quandary that is requiring the at
tention of the highest executives of
the two countries.
1t is to be hoped that the German
explanation, now on its way to the
Secretary of State, is as was pur-
ported in the Berlin dispatch: that
the German Empire was making an
unqualified apology for the actions OF
the Prinz Eitel Friedrich and her
captain.
The William P. Frye is sunk. No
lives were lost. We do not want a
war or an estranged peace. Let Ger
many apologize, pay ample indemnity
for the sinking of the vessel, be care
full that it does not occur again and
all will be well.

THE DEPARTMENTAL STUNT.

Columbia and the University were
guests of the engineers Wednesday af-
ternoon. The students in the School
of Engineering had spent no little
time and effort to make the annual
departmental stunt success, and
most of the other students came out
for an afternoon of real entertainment.
Hats off to the engineers," was the
general conclusion.
But this annual affair of the engi-
neers, like the other departmental
stunts, has a deeper significance. 1t
serves to bring closer together the
students in the department and ere
ates a greater departmental spirit. In
fact, only a department with consid-
cradle spirit could present such
stunt as the st. Patrick's Day pro-
gram. Then, too, such stunt inter-
ests other students in the department.
Most of those who saw the parade
Wednesday and visited the exhibits In
the Engineering Building afterwards
saw to their surprise. both in the way
of entertainment and instruction,
some things the engineers can do and
are doing. This brings the different
departments closer together and thus
creates a greater University spirit.
The departmental stunt which as
sumes the proportion of the st. Pat
rick's Day festival of the engineers
becomes University stunt whose val
us would be hard to estimate. Such
stunts have a distinct place in life

WHAT ABOUT OUR TRAFFIC. LAwi

WHAT ABOUT OUR TRAFFIC LAWi
What has become of enforcement of
the traffic ordinance, which provides
that automobiles should keep on the
right side of the street and make those
imposing turns on the street corners?
What has happened to the traffic Of
ficers?
Many of the automobile drivers in
Columbia are very careful. Many
others are entirely too reckless. Of
ten an automobile comes down the CEN
ter of the street at good speed and
there is no indication which way the
driver intends to turn. Consequently
the man crossing the street is in dan
ger. How can he Judge which way
to turn?
II the drivers of automobiles will
attempt to stay on the right side OF
the street and make the proper turns
at corners, many risks will be les
sened. The streets belong to the man
on foot as much as they do to the
man in the motor car Will it take
some serious accident to make auto
mobile drivers be cautious?

organization of the assembly last Monday he trained with the Repuoli

majority. Pitt has always proessed to be a staunch Democrat, and
the hip-nop he turned at Carson is advance notice that he is not to be
trusted politically, and after this session is w he will have no political
standing in any party, as all hands will naturally be afraid of him.
