BETTER DAYS FOR PUBLIC
UTILITIES

Whatever injustices or imposit-
tios the public may have suffered in
the past by reason of the one sided
bargains driven by the utility cor
porations and the highhanded meth
ods by which some of them enforce |
their contracts and squeezed out of
them every possible cent of profit, no
one will deny that the more eeent
situation has represented too great 4
reaction from the old order, and
many of the corporations have earne

Happily another change is now in
progress reaction from the reac-

that these public service concerns
must be allowed to get something out
OF their actiyities-if not to the ex

extent that VIII save them from insol-
Vency and at the same time enable

A CRIME

The entire Inland Empire has been
shocked by the story of an aged wo-
man, formerly a resident of Moscow,
being knocked down and dragged be-
Meath an automobile for a distance of
ID blocks-more than a mile-beneath
a big Cole car driven by a. wealthy
rascher of Opportunity. The crime
calls for swift and adequate punish
Ment.
Van Skike, the n an driving the car,
is believed to have either been drunk
" so badly frightened that he lost
his head, completely. In either case
he is a dangerous mar to be at large
and should be locked up for the safety
sf society. He is as dangerous as a
rad dog and should be treated as
such.
= The man turned and twisted, going
from street TO street, back ard forth
in an effort to shake off his pur-
saers. Motorcycles and Ford cars
following at 80 miles an hour were
unable to overtake him until they
turned out their lights, when he slow
ed down, but stepped on the gas"
when the Ford car got close enough
SO that his number could be taken
and turned on the lights. He knew
he had done wrong and was trying to
get away. He was caught and re-
leased on $4,000 bond.
D,,4 fo-, rroo1rc ono annfho1 Snn-
kane automobile driver, going at 40
miles an hour, knocked down and
killed an aged man who was crossing
the street. This man was drunk and
had several bottles of illicit booze in
his car when arrested. Both of these
drivers should be given long terms in
the p~enitentiary, for these two hor-
r1ble accidents were clearly their
faul. Human life is too precious to
be destroyed by drunken or incompe-
tent drivers of automobiles.
Ga Ea -
While lynch law is generally to be
deplored, the action of the mob at
Santa Rosa, California, in taking
three desperadoes from the Jail and
hanging them seems to meet with
general approval. At least. none Of
the papers are condemning it in
strong terms. The men were the
most depraved of criminals; all had
prison records, having served
three terms: they were known to lave
been guilty of brutal assaults on a
number of respectable girls; and they
murdered the sheriff and two detec-
lives who had gone to their %rendezv-
oas to arrest them. Just what good

THE PROFITEER

Let's take . look at the profiteer
for . moment and briefly size him up.
He has no thought Of purpose Of ser
vice. He exists, not to give anything
but to take all within his reach and
he blames all business differences on
the consumer, without suggesting .
remedy for anything. The conditions
that make life hard for others are easy
for him and he neither reckons or
cares what becomes Of his fellow-man.
He il not business man, but blood
sucker, . parasite fattening on the
misfortunes Of others. He regards
business only as an opportunity to rob
those who are forced to deal with him.
He welcomes every accident or Incl
dent Of trade that makes the robbery
easier and the loot larger.
The genuine American business man
and, thank God, there are many Of
them, know that trade and legitimate
profit come to him who regards him
self as the guardian Of his customers
interests. When difficulties arise he
goes out as the champion of his Gus.
toners, and he buys and sells honestly
As q result Of his fair dealings hi
piles up in the community an esteem
and friendship that comforts hin
through life.
The profiteers are the barnacles o.
business. They must be scraped Of
Of the ship Of progress, or they'll
| sink it. And the way to scrape then
off is to deal only with men 20,
