VOLUME 55.. _ BRINGING THE COUNTRY TO TOWN. «NO. 19,828 Managers in convention at Duluth, Secretary Patterson said along each floor as well as elevators, that fares will be charged for passengers, that pure air will be pumped from the country and that bungalows for residences will be erected on the roofs. This is not to be taken es midsummer lunacy, although most summer conferences run to that sort of thing. It is merely a case @ revolution completing the circuit and going back to where it started. The four-story building put the Broadway cottage out of business and wiped it off the city map. The skyscraper will bring it back. The one sad feature is the probable charge for elevator rides. When first the elevator came into use and drew the public like charm into ever loftier buildings, an enthusiast of the time, Dr. Ed- ward Everett Hale, predicted that the euccess attending free elevators ‘would eventually compel communities to provide free surface rides to the suburbs. Any enburban town, seid he, that will put in « free ax service to and from the city will have a boom. The prediction was logical, but the doctor did not foresee the reaction. We are weary of leaving the city for the country. We wish to bring the country te town and, having « lodge in a garden of cucumbers forty stories ‘Ep, we must pay suburbanite tolls to make it seem natural, ,,, _———— HALCYON DAYS FOR B. R. T. F THERE be any validity in the old maxim that every activity or I inactivity gives pleasure to somebody, the managers of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Oompany must be getting lote of it and in large variety, for none of it goes to the public. Active or inactive, the pleasure is all theirs unless they share some of it with the Public Service Commission. If the managers of the company be wise, however, they will turn at times from the delight of seeing overcrowded passengers sweltering down to the seaside and getting back as best they can, to give heed once in a while to what the public has done.end is doing to bigger corporations than theirs. The public has not yet set itself resolutely to the task of making public utilities really useful, but what it is doing now with interstate roads it will some day do with street roade. Power is ever with the people, and sooner or later maladministration or misadministration is bound to feel the effects of it applied in the right way, and if not at the right time at least at a time that serves the purpose. wf . —_—_—_—_—_——— BUSINESS AND FIRE RISKS. JUDGMENT of the Court of Special Sessions against the owner A of a loft building convicted last spring of refusing to carry out an order of the Fire Commissioner to install automatic sprinklers in his building has been affirmed by the Court of Appeals. It is stated that the case was in the nature of test and that a good many other owners of like buildings are now to be proceeded against for similar offenses. That the owners of buildings should fight out test cases in matters of this kind is one of the freaks of the business mind that thould be studied by alieniste, Fires in New York are so frequent, and the hazards of lofte are 60 many and eo dangerous, that an impulse ef common sense should prompt every owner or occupier of such a left to provide every feasible guard against the risk. Where common f sense is lacking, experience should have taught the lesson, for experi- > emee has been ample and at times terrible. “ Yet many capable, keen-witted men of affairs, owners of prop- good citizens, kind-hearted, generous in various ways, not only vefuse to rightly guard their property, but even fight the law when it directs them to take the simplest precautions. There must be some aberration in the business mind that fights against a Jaw in the faterest of business; either stinginess, folly, obstinacy or sheer lunacy. ——<+— LIPTON CLEARED OF BLAME. IR THOMAS LIPTON emerges from the army canteen scandals S involving some of the employees of his company with his own record and repute clear by judgment of the shareholders of the company, the House of Commons and the Attorney-General. Tho latter was emphatic in his declaration that there is no evidence a eonnecting Sir Thomas with the offenses in any way whatever. "This will bring gratification to thousands of Americans who know y Sir Thomas mainly as a repeated challenger for the America’s cup, He is liked here as a keen sportsman who does his best to win victory, but accepts defeat gamely and after each successive loss comes back with as much grace as courage to try again. It would have marred much of the pleasurable excitement of the approaching contest if he had been compelled to come to us under an ugly charge at home. As wide apart as is busineas from sport, the reproach of a scandal in the one would inevitably have affected popu- lar judgment upon him in the other. Clean sport requires men that ere clean all round, and it is gratifying to Americans to know they have that kind of challenger in a man they like so well as Sir Thomas.
