The Time to Begin is Now!
When in the course of the events of the day The Richmond Palladium published comment weeks ago on the probable action of the Republicans of this state in Incorporating into their platform the demand for a public utilities commission, it might have been taken aa merely the re-iteration . of a hope consummately to be hoped for but despaired of. It was no such thing. In the weeks that have elapsed since this editorial a careful survey has been made of the conditions at the state capital and all over the state. For the trst time in the history of the Republican party interests which, heretofore, have been rightly classed as unfriendly to what has been known as "progressive" not to say "radical" or "socialistic" legislation have swung into line in the Republican party for a public utilities commission. We should be without the facts if we should say that this Is the reason that Oovernor Marshall (a Democrat) has spoken boldly and pronouncedly on the subject of a public utilities commission. In fact we scarcely see how he could have done otherwise. The fact is that everybody is good and ready for a public utilities commission.
However The people of this town are not the sort of people to sit up and bowl for a public utilities commission and be satisfied with one in name. Neither are they satisfied to have any one who happens to need a political recompense be saddled on the commission by way of political payment. But these things are mattera to take one at a time.
Now there are no two ways about it There are plenty of individuals and plenty of financial interests and businesses that realise that the game of public service corporations continually putting up franchise question before the people of Richmond under preaent conditiona ia a great waste of time and energy. We are far from denying that the Richmond City Water Works may not have had injustices done it. We are far from denying that the Richmond Light, Heat and Power Company may or may not be in straits which are wasting efficiency for itself and the town. We have asserted that the proposals thus far made by the Richmond City Water Works have been most absurdly unfair and worse and as for the negotiations (perhaps at this minute being star-chambered in the city administration) with the Light, Heat and Power Company no comment can be made strong enough it smells worse than the gas.
ALL THIS IS WASTE.
Conservatively minded folk do not like a continual hurrah and bang. But If this newspaper shall continue to publish the truth about proposals as we find them we cannot see with the present conditions how it can be otherwise. In the future with these contracts and franchises than it is at the present time. While the only things that this paper has called attention to are only the most obvious and glaring things, this paper nor any citiien that we know of in Richmond has ever appeared in any other light than the attitude of the consumer of the utility. It would please all of us to have a board in Indianapolis of honest and qualified authorities passing on public utilities matters as honestly and Intelligently as the railroad commission now passes on the matters under its Jurisdiction. The railroad commission is more than a tribunal. It has little formality and speedy procedure and after some investigation we are inclined to be-' lleve fully in its Integrity and ability. We have heard it complimented both by railroad men and officials on the one side and by plain shippers and travelers on the other. What more could be desired in the public utility business?
But We should rather see no board than a poor one. That Is up to thegov ern'or after the people have elected Mm. We Bhould rather see no law than a poor, emasculated, jug-handled one but that is the business of the legislature. The concern at the present time is to see that every man in the legislature from Wayne and the' surrounding counties .is pledged to a real public utilities law. THE TIME TO BEGIN IS NOW.

MOIIITOrYSJIRTHDAV Fifty Years Ago Today Famous Craft Launched.
(National News Association) WASHINGTON, D. C, Jan.30. Fifty years ago today took place one of
the most important events in naval history, the launching of the famous iron-clad ship Monitor at Brooklyn.
The construction of this craft marked ; the turning point in the great naval j transition from the old wooden war
ships to the modern battleships of the dreadnought type. 1 The Monitor was the first fighter to be equipped with a revolving turret. A , short time after she was completed there took place between her and the Merrimac In Hampton Road the first 1 battle between armored warships. The Merrimac was an old wooden vessel converted by the Confederate Govern- ' ment Into an iron-clad ram. The result of the contest between the two vessels was somewhat of a "draw." but It settled the question of the superiority of any kind of Iron-clad ship over the old
wooden men-of-war. Immediately the nations of the world began construct
ing new iron vessels, and ever since there has been a continuous effort on the one hand to invent gun capable of destroying existing vessels, and an the other to Invent ships capable of resisting them. Great Britain was easily first in the new departure, and has occupied that position for half a century, though closely pressed for Irst honors by the United States and Germany.

ANCIENT ARITHMETIC Frsblsms sheolbeys Hed to Solve Thirty-six Conturioo Ago. There 1 a ray of vindictive comfort tor th modern schoolboy In the fact that for over 3.000 years his schoolboy progenitors have been worried by Just each problem In arithmetic as annoy him most Among the archaeological discoveries, made la Egypt is papyrus roll, in excellent condition, dating from about 1700 B. C. This roll, which had a lonff heading beginning, "Directions how to attain the knowledge of all dark things," proves beyond doubt that the Egyptians of that time had a thorough knowledge of the element of arithmetic. Numerous examples show that their principal operations with units and fraction were made by means of addition and multiplication. Subtraction and division were not known , in their present form, but correct results were obtained nevertheless. Equations are also found in th papyrus. Her is one that brings the Egyptian schoolboy home to as: Ten measures of barley are to be divided among ten persons in such manner that each subsequent person shall receive one-eighth less tha th on before him. " Another example given ia: Ther ar even men; each one has seven cats; each cat has eaten seven mice; each mouse has eaten seven grains ef barley; each grain of barley would have ylelaad seven measures of barley. Bow much, barley ha been lost? . Th papyrus also contains the calculation ef the are of circle, attempts to square the circle and finally calcula-

It by Reading a Gossipy Letter
You Wrote Yaara Ago. There la nothing more Interesting than to come across unexpectedly an intimate and gossipy letter that one wrote oneself ten or fifteen years ago. in reading such a letter one is looking at oneself from the outside. The proc
ess is a good deal like looking out of the window and seeing oneself go past in the crowd. The strange part of the matter is that in reading such a document one Is generally filled with a sort of pity for the fellow who wrote it He seems to have been rather uncertain of himself. He groped for his facts and his Ideas. Evidently he did not know much. He was merely an imperfect adumbration of the admirable person who is now overlooking his correspondence, eh? That is the first impression. But presently one feels differently about it Those half baked opinions may now have hardened into dogmas. We may now be cocksure of what once we only surmised. But who is so hopelessly wrong as the cocksure man? If the person one was fifteen years ago could contemplate objectively the person one is now perhaps he would pity the purblind dogmatist more than we pity the groping experimentalist New York MalL The tar-macadam road has given the
best satisfaction of any kind of street
surfacing yet experimented with. On
small stones, evenly spread, the tar is placed, then another layer of stones, and the whole is rollede. It is finally
covered with stone dust and fblleed hard. It requires only a few months
to become durable.
