Monopoly Moving Forward.
The Electric Bond and Share
company, of New York, is having a
fine time plucking its victims spread
over twenty-six States and number-
ing 2,101,000 electric and gas consum-
ers. According to evidence of ex-
perts heard by the Federal Trade
Commission, in Washinton, the
other day, this holding corporation
exacts on what it calls “servicing
fees,” considerably more than 100
per cent a year on its investment.
The service upon which these fees
are levied are constructing generat-
ing stations and stringing wires for
the little companies, which are
! charged to operating expense and
made the basis of fixing rates to the

Penalizing Recreant Democrats.
Former Senator Jim Reed, of
Missouri, recommends some form of
discipline be imposed on the recre-
ant Democratic Senators who voted
for the Hawley-Smoot tariff bill.
“They have sold their birthright for
a mess of pottage,” the Missouri
Democratic War Horse declares,
“and no longer deserve anything at
the hands of the party which has
honored them.” There were eight in
this bunch of mercenaries. They
are Brousard and Ransdell, of
Louisiana; Trammell and Fletcher,
of Florida; Britton, of New Mexico;
Kendrick, of Wyoming; Pittman, of
Nevada, and Copeland, of New York.
They betrayed their party and
sacrificed principles for selfish and
sinister considerations. They are
moral delinquents.
The Hawley-Smoot tariff bill, as
it came from the House committee,
was an abomination. As it emerged
from the Senate, after six months
of tinkering and trading, it was a
crime. There were a sufficient
number of conscientious and fair-
minded Republicans in the Senate
to have corrected many of its blunders
and eliminated many of its evils.
But the moment Joe Grundy set up
his trading-post in the Senate
chamber the recreant Democrats
abandoned all sense of obligation to
their party and their consciences
and raced to the “bargain counter.”
They may have driven a hard bar-
gain with the professional lobbyist
but the “ultimate consumer” will
have to pay the price.
In order that the sugar growers of
Louisiana may graft a few thous-
and dollars out of the increased
tariff tax on sugar the consumers
of the country will be mulcted to
the extent of $100,000,000 a year.
The fruit producers of Florida may
get a few thousand dollars extra
but for that favor the consumers of
fruit will be taxed as many millions.
The western Democratic Senators
who entered into commerce with
Grundy may have gained trifling
sums for the producers on hides,
wool and lumber, but the people of
the country will have to pay in the
ratio of thousands to one for what
they must buy, In view of these
facts Senator Reed is everlastingly
' right.

| The County Debt Grows.
We received a copy of the Audi-
tor’s Statement of the financial con-
dition of Centre county too late to
give it the thorough study such an
important matter deserves.
A glance is all that is necessary
to arouse concern in the minds of
the taxpayers of the county as to
where we are drifting. Notwith-
standing a two mills increase in
the levy in 1927 the county has
been piling up debts every year
since and if new offices and their
attendant expenses are to be added
at the rate they have been since
the present regime came into power
it is not at all likely that the two
mills additional levy laid for 1930
will stop the drift toward higher
and higher taxes.
While the Statement shows the
liabilities in excess of assets to be
' $42,159.22 they are likely very much
more, for the reason that $86,857.68
in outstanding taxes are counted as
all good in order to reach even SO
favorable a figure. Probably not
“half of those taxes are collectable.
Besides this we are informed that
shortly after the first of last Janu-
ary the Commissioners negotiated
large loans on notes in order to
clean up pressing bills. Necessarily,
any such loans do not show on the
| Statement just issued. If they were
to pay pressing bills they must have
' been for items that were purchased
'in 1929 and should have appeared
in the accounting for that year.
Aside from the bonded indebted-
ness of $100,000.00, we are inclined
to believe that the County is fully
| $100,000,00 further in debt and af-
| fairs are not going to be any better
| until those in charge of our local
| government realize that long suf-
| fering tax payers are going to rebel
rather than submit to further back-
beaking loads.

Borough Council to make War on
Dogs.
At the regular
‘ough council, on Monday evening,
secretary Kelly read a communica-
tion from borough solicitor N. B.
Spangler explaining the dog law as
it affects canines allowed to run at
large and commit depredations on
private property. There is nothing
in the law that requires an individ-
ual to fence in his property against
dogs, but the law specifically states
that owners of dogs must keep them
under control at all times and not
permit them to trespass on the
property of others. Failure to do
so subjects the dog to capture and
impounding, whether he wears a
license tag or not. The dog canbe
' reclaimed by the owner on the pay-
ment of costs, and if not reclaimed
can be sold or killed.
The dog nuisance has been al-
lowed to run riot in Bellefonte for!
many years until patience has ceas-
ed to be a virtue. The Woman's
club has taken the matter up which
doubtless spurred council to action.
The matter was referred to the
Fire and Police committee

Mrs. Ed Spicher appeared before

erect a garage on her property
south of Logan street,. The matter
was referred to the Town Im.

The Street committee reported
putting down a sewer to the Wil-
liam Kline property, on east Bishop
street, the repair of the Lamb street
bridge, cleaning streets, Etc. The
committee also presented an ordi-
nance for the opening of Burnside
rreet which was read and ordered
The Water committee reported
various repairs and the collection of
$1975 for water taxes, rent, Etc.
Mr. Cobb also reported that in com-
pany with the burgess, Hard P.
Harris, he had visited Harrisburg
for the purpose of securing a per-
mit from the State Sanitary Water
Board to lay a feed pipe from the
big spring to the proposed pumping
station at the Gamble mill. The re-
quest was taken under consideration
but so far mothing has been heard
from the Board.
The matter of the surveys being
made by borough engineer H. B.
Shattuck to establish the borough
lines on both the Phoenix mill and
‘Gamble mill sites was pretty thor-
oughly discussed and the Water
committee was instructed to hasten |
the work so that all lines can be
