MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP.

The tenJeuoy of the decade is toward tounicipnl ownership of all institutions which are public necessities and which from their very nature are monopolies. It was in obedience to this tendency that the oounty a few years ago bought the toll roads and made them free and also that onr city in 1891 invested in an electric light plant. If private corporations owned our country roads what argument was there against their owning our city stree's But such an idea is so repugnant to our notions of city government that it probably has never occurred to any one. But if municipalities find it advantageous to own the streets and alleys why should they not possess the waterworks under the streets, the lighting of the streets on the transportation lines on the streets, all of which in our time, are public necessities. Why should the profits from these monopolies go to enrich private corporations instead of the one common public corporation in Jwhieli each citizen has a share. In 1895 our light plant will be on a paying basis and we will have an opportunity to buy the water works plant. Why should we not buy it? Ten years from now a street railway will be firmly established here and making money on account of our city's natural development. Why should Eot the franchise contain a provision giving the city the right to buy the pknt 1903? There is no good reason should not.

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND plainly shows his contempt for popular government, as well as for tho example and teachings of Jefferson and Jackson, by his reference to protection as one ot "the perils of onr gorernment by the people." Does this self snfficient judge remember that '-protection for protection's sake" has been the policy of this country for the better part of the long period it has been a nation?

SINCE his first inauguration President Cleveland has eo practiced the virtues of "frugality and economy," eulogized in his message, that he has become a rich man. The Wall street News estimates his profits in gas and sugar speculations in Wall street at 81,000,000. He has also made largely in Washington Cityreal estate speculations.

TITE etreet car franchise should be so framed that in ten years the city may purchase the plant at an appraised value, jnst as the water works franchise did. Bj 1903 municipal street railways will be as common as municipal light plants and water works.

THE billion dollar Congress which has just gone out of existence prvided that hereufter every Congressman Bhould be provided with a clerk whose business it will be to write his letters and speechesaud lie for him to office seekers. Great is Jeffersonian simplicity.

GKERNCASTIJE has a screen ordinance similar to the ordinance in this city. The saloon keepers tested it in court. Judge McGregor held that the ordinance was valid and that the snloonkrepers must cruply with its provisions.

EVEN Green Smith, theAttoroey General, denounces the Legislature as being under the control of the corporation lobby. However, this is but a case of the pot culling the kettle bli'.ck.

Tin refusal of Mr. Cleveland to re appoint any of his old officials will bar Mr. ]3ooe from the race for the Crawfordsville postolHce.

TllHltlog Out l'"icld.

So much trouble has rarely been taken to prepare athletic grounds for a match as at Cardiff not long ago. The occasion was a football match for the championship of England and Wales. '1 wo hundred braziers or perforated fire buckets were set up on the field, und bonfires were kindled in many parts of it, the flames being kept going until the frost was thawed'out of the ground, 'll.en the field was covered with straw to retain the heat, and just before tho match began a small arm.v of men cleared and raked the or. r,.1.

THE STREET CAB LINES

There is competition for our street railway franchise. That shows that it is worth something, and we doubt not the council sees its advantage and wtll press it for the benefit of the public whom they so intelligently serve. Between the two competitors they should choose the one that will grant ns the most concessions. But other things being equal it would seem only right to favor the company represented by Mr. Bamsey. It will have home capital in it Bnd will consequently have more interest in pleasing our people. Mr. Ramsey is a citizen of great enterprise and one in whom every one has confidence. It was owing to his untiring efforts alone that we have natural gas and his treatment of the people in this connection has been above reproach and worthy of all praise. We believe he would do the fair thing at the head of a street car company.

Fret- ripe I.ill*' tor factories. KOKOMO, Ind.. March S. A scheme for the growth of the city of Kokomo has just been consumated, whereby a free pipe line is assured to furnish gas to factories.

My feet aro wearied, and my hands are tired. My s-oul oppressed, And with desire hav© I long desired

Hest—only rest.

Tis hard to toil when toil is almost vain In barren ways *Tis hard to sow and never garner grain in harvest days.

The burden of my days is hard to bear, But tied knows best And I have prayed, but vain has been my prayer.

For rest—sweet rest.

Tis hard to plant in spring and never reap Tho auiutnn yield *Tis hard to till, and when 'tis lilied to weep

O'er fruitless (ield.

And so I cry. a weak and human cry, So heart oppressed And so I sigh, a wvak and human sigh

For rest—for rest.

My way has wound across the desert years. And cares infest My pftth. and through the ilowlngof hot tears pino for rest.

*Twas always so. When still a child, I laid On mother's brvast My wearied little head. E'en then,! prayed,

As now. for rest.

And I am restless still. 'Twill soon bo over, For down tho west Life's sun is setting, and I see the shore

Where I shall rest. —Father uyim.
