Justice Brewer of United States Su-
preme¬
Court on Public OwnershipThere Is this Important difference
between public nnd private Indebtedness The Individual may mortgage hishome or other property and If the pur¬
pose for which the mortgage Is givenproves a failure the property may belost to him and on his death his heirssimply receive so much less than theyotherwise would but the Indebtednesscasts no burden upon them It maywipe out his entire property and theyreceive nothing To that extent theymay suffer If a failure to Inherit prop ¬
erty can be called suffering But pub ¬
lie Indebtedness Is of a different char¬
acter It does not wipe out propertynow existing but It casts a burdenupon the Industries and toll of thosewho come after us Interest and prin ¬
cipal are met by taxes and taxes con ¬
tinue from age to age until the debt Is
paid They who come after us whomay receive little or no benefit fromthe debt are called upon to contributethe proceeds of their labor to Its pay ¬
ment In other words while privateIndebtedness does not mortgage or Incumber future Industry nnd labor pub-
lic
¬
Indebtedness does And In pilingup public Indebtedness we too oftenforget that the future will have Its bur¬
densthat there will be demands uponIt for expenditures Improvements andconveniences corresponding to the lifeof that day will be needed So thatthere Is Injustice In creating a publicIndebtedness for Improvements whichwill be mainly available In our dayand only to a slight degree of benefitto those who come after us Indeedgenerally speaking It Is fair to leaveeach generation to determln whatamount of public burdens It will as ¬
sume and each should take care of Itsown public Indebtedness LesliesWeekly
FUNCTIONS OF THE STATE
Interesting Analysis Made by BishopStang of Fall River
In a recent address In St Maryscathedral Bishop Stang of Fall Riverthus analyzed the functions of the
stateThe state should not absorb therights of Individuals but should keepthem Inviolate unless they clash withthe common good and the Interests ofgovernmentand private prosperity by maintainingpeace and good order safeguardingfamily life respecting religion andpunishing evil doers
Civil authority may step In to In ¬
terfere If through strikes there Is im ¬
minent danger of disturbance to thepublic peace If in workshops and fac-
tories¬
there is danger to moralsthrough the mixing of sexes or fromany occasion of evil if the health oflaborers is endangered by excessivework or the want of sanitary arrange ¬
ments or if labor is unsuited to sex orage but the state should not intervenein or meddle with private concerns anyfurther than is required for the rem ¬
edy of the evil or the removal of thedanger The state should not onlyprotect private ownership as some ¬
thing sacred and inviolable but its pol ¬
icy should bo to Induce as many peopleas possible to become owners Thepossessor of the poorest cabin will notchange it for the dreams of a socialis ¬
tic paradise
A PUBLIC OWNERSHIP PERIL
It Would Intrench Corrupt PoliticalBosses Permanently In Power
Referring to the recent announce ¬
ment that 51140 persons are on thepayroll of New York city the NewarkAdvertiser declares that In the eventmunicipal ownership of street oCI
electric light and gas plantsand other public utilities the city em ¬
ployees would constitute a politicalarmy that would make a change of ad ¬
ministration Impossible-It recalls the fact that 25000 city
employees In Philadelphia kept Phila-delphia
¬
In tho bands of the corruptDurham machine for years and only agreat popular uprising finally over ¬
threw the grafters-If Durham bad had control of the
street railroads and other public utili ¬
ties In Philadelphia through municipalownership It observes ho could havelaughed at popular uprisings Hewould have been as absolute In his au-thority
¬
as the czarThe point is well takenIn other cities the political situation
under public ownership would be as Itwould In Philadelphia and New York
Bosses may be overthrown and graft-ers
¬
turned out whenever the peoplewill it at present Public ownership ofall public utilities would end this Itwould bind tho people hand and footand deliver them Into the hands of po-litical graftersLong Branch N JRecord
When Toms Tune Would ChangeOf course municipall ownership would
be liked by any political boss whoowns a city as Tom Johnson ownsCleveland Just think of what a tre-mendous increase of political powercould be given to him were about 25000 or more men to be added to thecity payroll I How Tom as an outwould like to be a candidate for mayoragainst such official backed by thesupport of an army ofpaid retainers 1
