It i3 well for Richmond people that the exact condition that confronts them with reference ti the threatened kidnapping of its electric plant, should be made plain by outside newspapers as well as by those at home. The Indianapolis News which Is devoting much atttention to the electric light situation in several Indiana cities, particularly in Rich

mond and Muncie, contained the following editoral last night: "The chief moral to be drawn from the experience of Muncie and Richmond with the question of lighting is beware of "leading bankers" and "urominent citizens."- In both these cities there is a municipal electric lighting plant, and In both of them, as has been shown in The News, there have been deliberate attempts on the part of the electric lighting trust known as the Electric Company of America to wreck them. We shall not now go into the question of the method used, for they are known to all. Suffice it to say that they are the usual trust methods. Rates have been reduced temporarily, so as to make It Impossible for the people's company to compete, efforts have been made to discredit it, and there is a well-grounded suspicion that some of the accidents happening to its plant were not accidents at all. Franchises have been illegally granted to the monopoly, and generally the politicians, the "leading citizens," the "prominent bankers," and the monopolists have worked together against the peoplp. The story is old, and the moral plain. It i3 that there can never be decent government till "prominent citizens" and "leading bankers" learn how to behave themselves decently. If it were not for men of the class politics would today be clean in the United States. They are the tempters and corrupters. As long as respectable and representative business men are not above making wrongful profits at the expense of their neighbors, dodging their taxes and plundering the people in the matter of public franchises, we need expect no relief. When decent men openly favor a wideopen town and the reign of lawlessness because under such a reign they make more money, public officers and newspapers can do little in the way of reform."

Thanksgiving Day.

Whatever the business conditions of the country may be and no matter the trials and tribulations that may have beset many of us, It is well that once each year at least there should be a pause in ordinary pursuits, that voices may be lifted in genuine thanks to God, for in a general way, even the most severe reverses, cannot compare with the, bountiful blessings which every human being who lives in this world, and part'eu'arly in America, has received. It seems especially fitting, therefore, that in the very midst of a season of plenty, when prosperity stalks abroad in the land, that there should be a cessation of all forms of business while acknowledgment for these blessings is made. Thanksgiving day is an American "institution" and it has lost none of its sacred significance since the day that the Pilgrim Fathers, in 1621, halted in their labors in a new world to proclaim thanks to God for the mercies of the proceeding year. The Pilgrims, with all or their woes did not doubt an instant that they owed a debt of gratitude to their Maker and their supplications were destined to be exemplified by future generationsof Americans for all time. v
