THr =aN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, _NOVEMBER 13, 1902. GENERAL CHAFFEE AND COMMISSIONER WRIGHT MERCHANTS’ AS GUESTS Public Utilities’ Debate Is Held. Delmas Opposes Platt in Ar- gument. HE Merchants' Assoclation of San Francisco held its annual | banguet in the ladies’ grill room of the Palace Hotel last evening. More than 4% members and guests were present. The guests of hon- or included Major General Adna R. Chaf- who has just returned from the Phil- ippines, and Vice President Luke E. ‘Wright of the Philippine Commission. The great banquet hall, which has been any a notable gatherifig, decorated in_honor of nt Frank J. Symmes Association delivered a dress, in which he spoke work during the past g the association had by lived its usefulness. he subject of the evening, as indicated the scene of on the fiyleaves of the handsome menu cards, was “The Acquisition and Man- agement by the City of the Geary-street Railroad as a Public Utility.” The topic was discussed ably and at considerable length by D. M. Delmas in the affirma- e and Horace G. Platt, president of the Geary-street Railroad Company, in the negative. Before the discussion of this question began, however, General Chaffee and Governor Wright spoke briefly of condi- tions in the Philippines, as did Colonel C. E. Woodruff. General Chaffee was the first speaker and when he arose a great stc rm of applause. swept over the ban- et hall, which must indeed have made the grim-visaged warrior feel that he was ence more at home and among. friends. He talked briefly but to the point and was greeted with tumultuous applause as be sat down. The general said: CONDITIONS IMPROVED. I thank you for this flattering | ve given me to-night.

GUEST OF MERCHANTS' ASSOCIA- L 43,000 United States troops in the Philippines. | During the last few months this number has been reduced to about 25,000. The soidier boys have come home to you and are now on their native soil. Eleven months ago the army oc- cupled 631 stations in the islands. In August last there were 178 ‘stations, 50 you can see what disposition, we have made of the troop: Order is _very fairly kept outside of the Moro | group. The ‘army in the islands now is exer- | cising merely a moral influence and I trust it will not be necessary for it to exercise any | other than a moral force. You all have heard something-about the trouble we have-had with | the Moros. They are what I might refer to as | agricaltural savages, 150,000 strong. - They are of a Mohamamedan faith. They do-not wish us to come in contact with them, but we love ] * them and are going to tell them so.- (Laugh- ter.) In_ conclusion, my' friends, permit- me to thank you and to again assure you that the army in the Philippines has nothing to do but to take care of itself. Governor Wright was introdueed after the great wave of applause which fol- lowed Chaffee to_his seat had receded. “It might be said of you, Governor Wright,” said the' president, in introduc- ing the speaker, ** ‘well done, thou good and faithful servant; welcome back into the joy and fat of your native land.’ " Wright spoke briefly and in part as fol- lows: FILIPINOS SEEING CLEARER. General Chaffee has - told you, ~gentlemen, | that the insurrection-in the Philippines Is at | an end. This s true. There is absolutely no | armed insurrection in the islands to-day. Civil | government has been established in . every province outside of Mindanao. 1 can truthtuliy say that the Philippine people are by-no means an unintellectual people. They are people who will appreciate just- treatment and an honest government. Governor Taft and their. col- leagues have given them that to the best of their ability. The Filipinos are- beginning to understand us, and 1 believe we are beginning . to. under- | stand them. You gentlemen have a field in the Orient which may well challenge your liveliest interest. The struggle now going on among the nations of the earth for trade supremacy in the Orient, it has always seemed.to me, is one in which the American people must neces- sarily take a hand, and they have made no mistake, in my judgment, in taking this step. However that may -be, we are charged with administrating the affairs of the islands, and we cannot look back—we cannot scuttle. = You merchants and business men have.a greater material Interest in the development of the Philippines than the people of any other sec- tion of -our country.. Now, my friends,. permit me to say, in concluding, that our.course in the lslands is open and clear. We have made no mistake, and if we deal fairly and squarely and in a sane manner with those people, as we intend to do, and give them the best we have there can be no doubt of the resuit. Governor Wright was applauded warm- 1y as he retired to his seat. Mr. Delmas was the next speaker. He began by saying it was with considerable diffidence that he consented to address the association on the chosen topic, be- cause of the fear that he might,.in plead- ing the affirmative side of the -question, wound the susceptibilities of some of his friends who were interested in the other side of the question. He was .in fine voice, speaking clearly and,with studied deliberation. His friends remarked at the conclusion of the address that it was one of his best efforts. He said in part: GREAT PROBLEM OF DAY. The sulect before us to-night presents one of the greatest problems of modern timeo—ln. deed; it has been said, the greatest problem of sociological and economic affairs. -If 1 read the symptoms aright, public opinion is setting with irresistible force in the direction of the public ownership of public utilities. -Of all the nations of the earth the United States stands alone in not owning its public utilitles. In Germany railroads are national property. 1In the sphere of ownership of municipal utiilties, England and Germany stand far in advance of the other nations of the world. San Francisco is the only city of its rank and station in the United States that does not own its own water plant. There is 1o city of 3000 peopie in Eng- RAUFTIAN Good Shoes land. that does not own its own water. This is a subject which requires the utmost frankness, my friends, and without frankness I would be unworthy of your attention. There are three causes which seem to me t0 point to the neces- sity of public ownership: First—It is the general impression among Deople that franchises under which privieges relating to public utilities are granted are cor- ruptly obtained. Is.this the condition of pub. lic opinjon? Is there any foundation for that opinion? Second—As T gather it, street rallways are grossly overcapitalized and are made to return | bow the boodler had been thwarted by dividends at the public expense upon a purely fictitious investment. Third—It is public opinion, as I understand it, that the corporations in charge of .these rail rdads have always avolded by most reprehe sible methods the payment of their just propo tion of public burdens. Mr. Delmas spoke at length of the scan- dal which had come upon certain big cities of the United States in connection with the letting of street railway fran- chises. Philadelphia, he said, had given | away a street railway franchise gratuit- ously after John Wanamaker had offered by private subscription $2,500,000 for the same. Chicago, he said, had, by a de- cisive vote, indicated its desire for munic- ipal ownership of street railways. In a wealth of descriptive language Mr. Delmas told of the great scandal which | had come over St. Louis, darkening the homes of many of the prominent men of the town and bringing lasting disgrace upon them and their familles. “What a spectacle,” he said, “St. Louis presents, with many of its prominent men standing shrinking in the dock or occupying the still more despicable post of public in- formers, while others still-are fugitives from the awakened wrath of justice.” BOODLER ENDOWS CHAIR. Mr Delmas told how a single individual had, through the use of an enormous boodle fund, bought up the City Council and seccured the passage through - that bedy of an ordinance giving him power to gridiron the city with railway tracks, paralleling lines already in operation; the veto of :the Mayor; how = another boodle fund of $100,000 had been shipped i into the city and used in buying enough votes to pass the ordinance over the May- or's yeto; how this individual had then sold his franchise, clearing more than a cool million by the transaction, and how the boodler as a solace to his conscience had endowed a chair of theology in one of the universities of Missouri. ‘“The overcapitalization of street rail- ways in San Francisco has been shown to be a fact,” said Mr. Delmas, “and in some instances I am creditably informed that they are capitalized three or four times over the actual capital invested.” The officials of one of San Francisco's street railway lines, the speaker said, in turning in a statement of his properties to the tax department, had undervalued the capitalization by many hundred thousand dollars. The Assessor, making a personal examination, discovered the undervaluation and.raised the taxes of the company séveral thousand dollars. He denied that the public ownership of public utilities would_ place these utilities in the hands of politicians. *“Are our pub- lic parks controlled by politicians?” the speaker asked. “Why, I am informed by one of our Park Commissioners that he does not know the politics of one out of nine men in the department, and, more- over, he does not make it his business to delve into these matters."” “I am reminded,” said the speaker, in conclusion, “of that wise saying which we all know so well, ‘You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time.” And this is just as true to-day as when it was first uttered.” FREE TICKETS Crand Opera House, Fischer’s Tivoli, Orphe um, Alcazar Central and Chutes IF YOU SAVE 25 B Egyptienne Straig 10 Cent Cigarettes hts Sovereign Cigarettes . 6c. a Package 50 (-0z.

Trade Is Said to Be Very Val- uable. &= s The speaker closed with a quotation | from Henry Clay, which was printed on | the fiyleaf of the programme: ‘‘Govern- | ment is a trust, and the officers of gov- ernment are trustees; and both the trust and the trustees are created for the ben- efit of the people.” Horace G. Platt followed. He, too, was | warmly recelved. He spoke In part as | follows: | GIVES THREE REASONS. T am opposed to municipal ownership of pub- | lic_utilities for three reasons: | First—Goverpment should leave ‘to private | enterprise everything but purely governmental ! duties. The only exceptions to this rule are | ratters of such magnitude and character that private enterprize cannot undertake them, as, for instance. the conservation of flood waters | in arid regions, covered by the recent act of | Congress. | Second—Government cannot do any busine: as @conomically or as efficlently as it can I done by private enterprise. Third—Municipal ownership of public utilities Increascs taxes without any corresponding bene- | fit to tha taxvayef. Government, and especially municipal govern- | ment, sho Id confine ftself to sovernmental | duties and not undertake industrial pursults, | Which belong t. ihe citizen. The best government is the one that governs the least, leaves the widest field for individual enterprise, gives the greatest encouragement to individual ambition and ability and affords the least opportunity for taxation of private | property. Municipal ownership of public utill- ties does the very reverse; takes great Indus- tries from the contro! of the individual an.li places them in the hands of the government, | and thus curtails the business scope of indiv- idual skill, enterprise and capital. | The aim of government should be to encour- age the profitable investment of private capi- | tal—not to make it unprofitable by govermmen- | tal_competition No community can gain anything by cur-| tailing the avenues for the investment at home of the money of its people. Every com- munity .gains by having in its midst large en- terprises in whose stocks and bonds the ac- cumulated capital of its citizens, especially of | the old, the widows and tha orphans, can find safe and profitable investment. The best and | most permanent of such 'enterprises are what | are known as public utilities. SELF-INTEREST ESSENTIAL. The duty of government is, therefage, simply | to regulate, not to own, public utilities. This | power of regulation all covernments. have, whether federal, state or municipal. By this control the cost to the citizen is con- fined to a resonable charge, while by the de- sire of personal profit the management is en- | couraged to give to the citizen the best service circumstances permit, and at the same_time | the community is benefited by the profitable | investment of private capital in such public utilities. | It is sald that the municipality should make whatever money there is to be made from the use of the streets. This is not so. Govern- | ment does not exist to make money. The | making of money by the government is the most corrurting cf influences and leads most certainly i extravagance. The city's profit{ from the use f the streets, as we will show, lles in the compensation it is authorized to exact for the granting of any franchise. If there is any money to be made in 'these | enterprises, let the citizens make it, and let | the ®overnment content itself witn such com- pensation and with securing to the public effi- clent service at reasonable charge. Government cannot do business as economi- cally or as efficiently as it can be done by private enterprise. The administration of municipal affairs fa the varlous cities throughout this country is not as economical as compared with the man- agement of private industries, nor is the class of _service rendered so efficient. Self-interest and the necessity for obtaining a return on an investment, are the first essan- tlals to the ecomomical and efficient adminis- tration of large enterprises. These are want- | ing in municival administration of public util- ities. MUST HAVE REFORM FIRST. Before we can have a successful administra- tion of public utilities by the municipal au- | thorities. we must have a thorough reform of | our system of municlpal government.

Adding new duties to those imperfectly discharged can- not benefit the pubdlic. The advocates.of municipal ownership claim that the most fruitful source of munieipal cor- ruption has been the public service corporations and that therefore the absorbing of their func- tions will bring about a reform of our city governments. We submit that the accusation answers ft- self. An official who can be bribed by a pub- lic service corporation will not become pure by being put in charge of such a business un- der municipal control. The most fruitful source of municipal cor- ruption 1s patrerage and this would be magni- fled by municinal ownership of public utilities. The Geary-street road has about one hundred employes. The other roads have several thou- sand more. Give all this patronage to our municipal officials and you interench official corruption and incompetence behind a barrier that is impregnable, Couple this increase of patronage with the fact that the smallness of official salaries and the uncertainty of official tenure prevent the most competent men from seeking municipal office and you make muni- cipal reform imvossible. Pay municipal sal- aries that will justify the most capable men in accepting public office and secure them in & tenure of office justified by successful perform- ance and their regulating of public utilities will demonstrate the fact that the greatest benefit to the public lies in municipal regula- tign rather than in municipal administration of public utilities. Within the experience or reading of every man present no instance can be cited of any large city in the United States that is not run any large municipal utility has not been man- aged by them at a loss to the community. Why, then, should San Francisco rush into this experiment? If it becomes necessary fer the city to issue londs, let it issue them to build modern brick school houses for its chil- dren; let it issue them to construct an ade- quate system of sewers to Insure the health of the community; let it issue them, i neces- sary, to make our police and fire departments equal to the onerous duties required of them, but do not let it issue them at the request of politicians, who pay no taxes, merely to at- tempt an 'experiment in municipal ownership with the experience of so many failures as a warning against such a step. At the conclusion of Platt's remarks the members arose and quietly filed out, with the memory of a happy and instructive evening in their minds. Open Day and Night. The spirit of improvement that has over- spread the town shows with remarkable prominence in the establishment of the Sutter-street Hammam Turkish and Rus- sian Baths at 415 Sutter street. Renova- tion, repainting and reconstruction mark the most important improvement since the original construction of the building. larly in the women's department, in- creased that the entire second floor of the building has been given over to that branch. Everything is entirely new and all the latest improvements known in the bathing line have been introduced. Twen- ty new rooms have been added and an ocean salt water plunge bath is one of the healthful innovations. The gentle- men’s department has undergone the most complete overhauling and presents an ap- pearance as bright as new. Twenty sleeping rooms have also been added ty this department. The proprietors, Messss, Lindstrom & Johnson, have successtully demonstrated a true perception of the public demands and are now in a posic tion to cater to a rapidly increasing pat- ronage with the most modern and invit- ing baths west of Chicago. The baths will remain open both day and night. ———————— Girl Without Friends. Helen Porter, 2 young woman‘who is slightly demented, was held by Police amined by the insanity Commissioners, but was returned yesterday as not insane. She appeared before the Judge and said she had no friends in the city and that charge of vagrancy against her, but the Judge does not like the idea of sending her to jail and thinks some society should take care of her till her mentality is thor- oughly restored. Her case was continued till this morning. ——————— Death of William A. Plunkett. William A.
