Here's the Rub Alfred Ba vis of the board of works has in: sisted that the public utilities commission be prevented from authorizing a bond issue until valuation of the plant or property on which the bonds are to be issued, is established. He and others are advocating an amendment to the public utilities commission law to this effect. Why ? Here's a reason. Several years ago, the public utilities commission authorized the issuance of a $850,000 bond issue by the Richmond Light, Heat & Power company, which at that time controlled the elec

tric light and gas utilities. The company represented the value of the plants at $1,000,000. In the meantime the" electric light plant has been purchased by the city for about $213,000 in round numbers. The commission's engineers fixed this value. Yesterday the commission's engineers fixed a value of $408,000 on .the gas plant of the company. . Add $408,000 and $213,000 and you have $621,000, the actual value of the two plants, and not $1,000,000 as represented by the company a few years ago. Now, on a real valuation of $621,000, the commission a few years ago, without knowing that this was the real valuation but accepting the company's claim of $1,000,000 permitted the issuance of bonds in the sum of $850,000. Subtract $621,000, the actual value of the two plants from the $850,000 bonds and you have $229,000. What security is there for the $229,000 of this bond issue of $850,000, if the real value of the two units is only $621,000? The commission assuredly needs a law preventing it from granting authority for the issuance of bonds without first having made a physical valuation of the property. . There's the rub.

Taxing Profanity Time was when fines were imposed on those given to the habit of swearing. In the reigns of Elizabeth and James 1 laws against profanity were enforced. Oliver Cromwell made every member of the Old Ironsides pay 12 pence if caught swearing. Profanity is much less common now ihan it was many years ago, but there

is still enough "blue smoke" emitted to derive a

large revenue for a city that enforced an anti

profanity ordinance, ine naDit nas a vicious

hold on Americans. Many-of us cannot empha

size a statement without resorting to an oath. ; If

fines would'cure the evil, the city council might add to the city's revenue arid some of us be cured

of the habit.

Tanner Daily Puzzle

Police and Boys

The most asinine handling of a police case in

which boys were involved came to light this week

in New York where a police magistrate ordered fingerprints taken of three small boys convicted

of playing baseball in the street. The youngsters

were captured by a patrolman .who saw them in

an innocent game on one of the thoroughfares of

that city.

The parents of the three boys have -raised such a clamor against what they rightly call an outrage that the police authorities of New York have been put on the defensive and are trying might and main to justify their action. The parents insist that the fingerprints catalogue their

sons with the criminal class and put a stain on their reputations which time only can remove. Misdirected zeal of police officers often results in cases of this kind. A patrolman is instructed to see that the laws are enforced and that violators of the law are arrested, but this does not mean that a patrolman, a desk sergeant, a chief of police, and a police judge should lose every bit of common sense which the Creator planted in their craniums. Had the New York patrolman exercised common sense the boys would not have been arrested, but would have been warned to quit playing baseball on the street. And if the desk sergeant and the police magistrate had used just a little judgment they would have' dismissed the lads with a reprimand. In a city as large as New York is, boys have few playgrounds. Many of the boys would have to go miles and miles to'find a vacant lot to start a game. They are forced to play in the streets. If they are enjoying themselves on a side street where traffic is light, why need an officious po

lice officer arrest them, and why should a magistrate insist that fingerprints be taken of the lads ? The New York police department ought be sent to a fresh air farm to have its brains dusted.

WESGOTT PAYS HIGH TRIBUTE TO PRESIDENT

ST. LOUIS, Mo., June 16. President Wilson has saved civilization for humanity byhis course, with respect to the great war, John W. Wescott, attorney general of New Jersey, declared here last night in renominating Mr. Wilson for the presidency before the Democratic convention. Today, he said, the nation is at work and at peace. Four years ago, commerce languished, industries halted and panic hung over the business world. Mr. Wilson, he continued, "dynamited the monetary dams and let credit flow to the remotest corners of the land, its spray, dashing even upon foreign shores. "With Lincoln, the emancipator of PROFIT BY THIS Don't Waste Another Day.

the chattel slave, he will live forever as the emancipator of the commercial slave." To have conquered Mexico, Mr. Wescott - said, would have . destroyed our prosperity, have made the South American republics hate us and have forfeited the respect of the world. War between the United States and any European nation, he said, would have set the world aflame and stopped the march of progress for a century. "The sublimest picture in civil history is that of a plain American citizen manoeuvring with the weapons of reason and humanity against the navies and armies of the contending nations and bringing them in accord with the principles of international law," he said. "By saving the American system, civilization is saved. "The peace of America demonstrates the folly of war. The principles of Democracy furnish the means of avoiding and preventing war. The universal intelligence of men decrees that the war now devastating Europe shall be the last war. "Sons of America, keen unsullied
