With Scissors and Paste


tSan Francisco Bulletin.)
The leisure classes of Europe have
had good deal of credit for their
willingness to get themselves killed.
II seemed a handsome thing TO do,
especially if one overlooked the pos
sibility that without leisure classes
there might have been no war. In
peace, it might be admitted, they
were a nuisance, but in war they
were a necessity.
a less glowing theory is suggested
by VIII Irwin, who in this war has
proved himself the equal of any war
correspondent that ever put pencil TO
paper or longed to assassinate a cen.
sor. Irwin writes of war as a de-
lirium, madness, gigantic jag, with
all the unwholesome exhilaration Of
drunkenness. He does not embrace
the contention Of stay-at-home milf
tarists that war is "a healthy reac-
ton toward noble ideals" to him
lit is precisely like the action of a
voluptuary who, little faded by ordin-
airy stimuli 10 his sensations. tries a
wholly new stimulus-like hashish >"
This is the reason" he concludes,
why the leisure class, which has a
monopoly of artificial means for in
tensifying life, is the class which
takes the greatest interest in war"
If this diagnosis is correct, it ac-
counts for SOME truly American
symptoms manifested upon the At
lantie seaboard, and especially in the
neighborhood of New York City.

Summers Burkhart Gives
More VieUs on Water

Editor Morning Journal.
Mr. Reynolds views on any public
lqucstion are entitled to high re-
specti but in the water controversy
he adopts tho water companys argu-
n1cnt. and that is unsound.
II assumes that $500. 900 Of bonds
must necessarily be issued that taxes
must be levied 10 pay the interest
iand sinking fun charges; that the city
now pays no taxes FOR water. that the
lcompany's city taxes are now ST. 600.
that the city would derive no revenue
from the water plant These as
sumptions are not sustained BY the
facts.
The ailurug figures in my for
mcr article were taken from Mr. Me
Millen's statement in the Herald and
from the public records, ana cannot
be truthfally disputed.
They show that the present plant is
more than twenty-five years old and
is not now worth more than S2fg,-
GOO, that the city now pays $4,000
taxes for water. that the company
city taxes are si.f94 aud not $4,000.
that the company's present income is
$4,000. that this is sufficient TO pay
.all operating, betterment, interest and
Income charges on a bond issue Of
$500 600 and leave surplus of s25,-
900 that, therefore, no levy Of taxes
VIII be- made to pay these charges;
that the taxes Instead OF being
raised. viii be reduced 10000 the
amount nov paid 10 the company for
free water They further show
that If "a new plant costing 100000
we're butt. the present revenue would
pay all such charges, leaving sur
plus Of $4,000 ana IN addition the
$4,000 now paid for free water
would Doe saved They further show
that If the sinking fund is created the
first year Instead Of the fifth, all Of
the bonds can be paid In twenty
years from the proceeds of the plant
and without one dollar of taxation.
The eompanys books show that itsi
revenues have INCREASED 225 per cent
in sixteen years. or about Ia per cent
per annum. If Albuquerque contin-
ues to grow in the same proportion,
these revenue will double IN seven
years. My figures are not based upon
any prospective increase, but only
upon the present revenue.
Neither the company nor Mr. Ray
nolds take into account the revenue
