In the city of Schenectady, N. Y., the youngest party elected “the mayor, all other city officials except one, and a majority pi the county board. In Ohio 10 cities elected socialist mayors. In Canton, "McKinley's home town, the election is in doubt between the " Bocialist and democratic candidates. Socialists claim the Blection of the lieutenant governor in Mississippi. The party was not behind in the showing in this state. Three socialist, three republican and one democratic council men were elected at Everett. 2 And in December Los Angeles, which gave the socialist mayoralty candidate a plurality at the primaries, will be heard again. Yo. socialists have demonstrated that it's up to every Kitizen to make a study of the newest party and keep track of its progress. Its gains made the leading feature of yes- terday’s elections. |The Telephone Dilemma The telephone users are being wedged in between two natives offered by the Bell a pay the ced rates asked by the so-called Independent company er quit the Independent and take the Sunset at still higher _ rates. 3 ‘The remedy is public ownership. Protection of the people robbery demands that the city of Seattle take over the : lent telephone concern, which can be done on the | ground that it has violated the terms of its franchise. To meet the advanced high rates is out of the question. {Po force the Independent out of the field means to put the “city at the mercy of the Sunset company and its exorbitant gates. Further, it means the crippling of Independent sys- $ems in neighboring towns. If, as pointed out by Councilman Kellogg, the Sunset is in the field alone, it will be able to so juggle its figures ind a pretense for jerking its rates still higher. Tf the city must guarantee the Independent at least 7 per it interest, then the city might just as well go into the iness itself. The city could hobble along on probably 6 cent—and the public would be assured against juggled eeping. The people of Seattle, The Star believes, should pay the lependent rates under protest until the case is decided. It improbable that any court will decide against the people this instance—that is, to decide that a franchise can be es Bell monopol, the Independent, is anxious to have the council declare Independent franchise forfeited and the company put out of business. + Controlling both companies, the monopoly wants all the ‘ iness under the Sunset, at exorbitant rates. If the people win before the supreme court there will be ll some semblance of competition and it is the duty of the ration counsel's office to fight to maintain the Inde- a in the field at the old rates, as a matter of immediate Relief. . If the people lose before the supreme court they will have © ample grounds on which to revoke the franchise and to con- > @emn and take over the Independent system as a municipal ject. The council of Seattle should immediately take steps ratory to taking over this franchise, so that if an adverse ‘ision is rendered by the court there will be no delay, r that “smile that fearing that the public may soon take Open Letter to Los Angeles Washington, D.
