The Supreme Court of the United States and its chief
justice, William Howard Taft, deserve a great ..'deal ' of
credit for the work accomplished rby , -that body during the
Inst year or so in cleaning up the. docket. .' Formerly' When
a case was taken to the Supremo Court it was unh'kely jluit
it would be heard for at least a three-year period, the delay
causing much inconvenienco and resulting in 'many-Bottle-i'
.mcnts 'out of court rather than wait for a decision. This
congestion has been relieved and the. members of the 'court:

in jocoi courts might well be. undertaken., . -

''-? JUST good nusiNiiss; WS.if
All Iowa newspaper recently congratulalod the adminis
tration of that state on its contract with a fies Aloines
public utility company for clectiic service to the state cupi
tal and other state buildings, whereby several: thousand
dollars are lo bo saved annually over the operation, of. the
states own plant, which is to be dismantled. Surely tho
slate is to bo congratulated .on effecting such an economy,
but no congratulations arc in order for the failure of " itai
officials to practice that economy many yeara,ngo. ' The
nmount of public money that might have been saved bv
this sound business move a long lime back would.be appal
ling. .-. - -' ; v. ,'..'
That state and municipal officials' and the general pub
lic wnom they sen-c are coming around to such a -icw
of public affairs indicates we aro making real nroirresa,
1'eople no lunger cling lo the,:foolish idea that it is alwa.-s
mm eternally better and cheaper to have publicly owned
institutions simply because they reifder a public service.
A large majority of our citizens have become educated to
a surprising degree in the yeai-s since the war to an appre
ciation for tho economy and efficiency of existing private
enterprise. They know that an eisling comiMiny, for ex
ample, already enjoying a large volume of business from a
wide and varied territory, can furnish lights for our city
streets more efficiently and much cheaper than we could
possibly do by having a municipal plant which would have
to carry the overhead of such nn operation on just one
small volume of revenue.
As in the case of tho Iowa state plant, it is merely a
matter of good business t.i turn to existing enterprises as
a means of effecting government economics along this line.
There are some cases of publicly owned utilities that are
great successes, but they are few and far between. As a
matter of fact, municipal ownership. rsiecially in smaller
towns and cities, is U-eoming a thing of the past. And the
tendency is economically collect. Nl only are we saved
operating deficits, but we are also given the benefit of
increased tax receipts from the private owners. wC are
freed of the eternal huggolxm of bond issues and heavier
tax burdens which go hand in hand with such public activi
ties, and we have one less pie to tempt the fingers of self
seeking politicians.
