RELATION OF COAL p
+ COSTS TO UTILITY RATES

That the production costs of public
utility service, such as electricity, gas,
telephone, and water, cannot be af-
fectcd by the price decline in some
lines, is the observation of L. P. An
drews, president Of the Missouri As
ISOLATION of Public Utilities.
"While it is a fact that there have
been some price reductions in certain
lines, we can see no indication of
corresponding decreases in the pub
lie utility industry says Mr.. An
drews. "The reasons for this are
many. In the first place, the cost Of
coal, which represents right now at
least so per cent of the production
expense Of most of the utility COM
panies, has not decreased and there
is little indication of a decline. This
same condition applies to labor costs
which, in the case of such utilities as
the telephone companies. represent
better than 60 per cent of the operat-
ing expeRse."e
"The RBiie Service Commission Of
Missouri, which is our rate govern
ing body, has. during the past two OF
three years, allowed what were ap.
parently fair increases in rates tc
many utility companies which are
large users of coal. However, hear
ings and Investigations preliminary
to the granting of these increases
took considerable time, often many
months, and while these proceedings
were being conducted, fuel costs were
continually advancing so that by the

MURPHY IN CONTROL

Chas. +. Murphy. boss Of Tammany
Hall. will control the vote Of ninety
New York delegates to the Democratic
National Convention. Tammany is the
backbone Of the Democratic strength
in New York. Tammany Is controlled
by Murphy and by the simple processes
Of unit rule. Tammany will control the
entire New York delegation. This issue
was settled in a contest at Albany. In
which small hand of insurgents tried
to break the unit rule. Murphy and his
adhcrents sustained the unit rule by the
overwhelming vote OF 81 to s.
In other words the worst elements
in the politics Of this country arc going
TO control absolutely more than ono
sixth OF the votes that are necessary TO
nominate a candidate for the presidency
in a National Convention OF one OF the
great parties. Fortunately. however.
the Democratic Convention at San Fran
cisco this year nneed not he seriously
reckoned with. Its nominee will have
less change of success so far as pres
ont conditions indicate than any
Democratic candidate has had since 1903.
But tho possibility OF the arbitrary and
irresponsible control OF the entire body
OF delegates from a great state like New
York is one TO make us feel entirely
satisfied with the operations and re-
suits OF Democratic government.

government has taken this enormous
sum out Of the banks OF the United

moro need for money for new enter

than ever before. II has created trc-
rnendous debt and at the same time. II
has continued its wasteful operations
in the employment OF hordcs or useless

demobiltze our great armies of useless
