REGULATION OF JiTNEYs.

Edmund w. Wakelee, vice president
of the Public Service, made an inter-
esting address at the recent conven.
ton Of Public Utilities held at Attain
tic City. His subject was, "The Street
Railways, the Jitneys and the Public"
AS usual he handled his theme ably,
setting forth the broad claim that the
state regulates every public utility
except the jitney. Another contention
Is that the electric lines deserve and
should have protection along the
lines where they operate especially.
The whole address was in keeping
with Senator Wakelee's best thought,
and reports from the convention all
confirm the statement that he made a
profound impression. His main point
was that If the jitney is not to be reg
ufated as other utilities, are they OF
sufficient public use to Justify this dis
elimination? Are they performing a
public service that warrants the peo-
pie in disregarding all the measures
of protection and regulation which
are applied to other utilities? Do the
people receive benefits from jitney op-
Grafton commensurate with the cost?
Can the people receive safe and ade-
quate transportation service at reason
able rates If this situation continues?

dangerous explosives known. Young
McAvoy was well-known as an expert,
and was supposed to know how far he
could go without incurring danger.
But he evidently reckoned without his
hosts, for at moment when he direct
ed his attention to the explosive, for
some reason, whatever it might have
been, it went off and blew him into
eternity. OF course there can be no
recriminations in pitiable case of
this kind. There Is only the most pain
full regret that thing of this char
acter could happen. But there is this
moral to be drawn from the incident:
No one should be allowed to have ex-
plosives around in any community ex-
cept under the most urgent necessity
for their use.
