BULL MOOSE ETHICS
'J lie Public Chicago Single' Tax
Advocaly oilers these kindly sug
gest ions concerning the liuil
Moose ami tho Bull Moose plat
orm:
"And wliai doos this nuyi really
stand lor? We are not asking
what his platform specifics. 11
it dot's n«-»t specify every par
ticular thing in the public
lihoughl of the moment—except
unpopular Ihings-lhc reason
must he that Mr. Roosevelt, who
hewed all the planks with his own
halchct, didn't have his alien
lion eajllc.d to the omission in
lime. We mean Mo ask what
Mr. Roosevelt's parly—for his
very own i| truly is-stands for
in its essentials. ll stands for
p:ivale monopoly. One of the
ablest among the faithful pro
gressives °f • be Republic has so
characterized il, especially with
reference lo labor, and the cir
runislancos bear biin oul. We
mean Louis I>. Hrandcis, a man
who has done more as a private
citizen for Ihe protection ofla
bor from monopoly than Col.
Roosevelt in all his career, both
public and private."
NEEDED FIRE PROTECTION
Tin- installation or a pumping
plant. l>y Mr. Charles Crawford,
:«s an additional lire protection,
should be a matter of great in
Icrest to property owners as it
pives additional protection in
case of eonllagral ion, as well as
lending n; suggestion of a means
of heller lighting lire in ease «»f
need. 'An outfit similar to that
installed hy Mr. Crawford with a
direct connected motor, can he
had for 8500. II is the belief
of the Prospector thai the oily
as a whole, should defray a por
tion of the eosl of installing
such pumping stallions, ask
ing only thn'l the pumps he sub
ject to the inspection of the
proper officials of I he Ore de
partment. NV,» believe lhat
were this done il would stimulate
I lie installation of similar plants
by business men owning property
in Ihe congested portion of the
city where Ihe greatest nce.d of
Ore protect ion is. and where
quick action, in case of fire, is
Ihe be.-.I vossible fire insurance,
Tn Ihe case of fire Mr. Crawford
will render wlial. Assistance he
can and il seems |o us right
Ibnl Ihe public generally should
in a measure assume a portion
• if I he burden incurred under re
strictions above staled. i. e. n
city supervision <<f Ihe plant, to
see Hint il is nlwnvs in working
order.
