Best Explosive Expert and Highest Paid Official in Empire -His Duty to Keep Sharp Lookout for Infernal Machines, St. Petersburg, March 4. -The wine touters of Etheird and Ered, who saved the lives of those merry mediaeval mon- arehs by reaching for the poisoned wine ahead of the kings for whom they were hired to dip, have modern prototype in the man whit journeyed i41 it reilroad laic? ele ab e ad of the train of the Cm' of ar' petty closely tit home by the well-founded idea that his appearance outside unguarded, will be fatal, Nicho- las employs one courageous Russian as a bomb -fender. This man, mounted on the seetioneboss sort of self-propelling tricycle, runs on ahead of his Majesty's slowly moving train during the rare journeys he makes and picks up all stray bombs that .anarchists ma, y have left - Num the track.

The general propostion is more than two to one egainst municipal ownership. 'There was an extol -moue vote Mt, but, despite this, the tend Progressive vote thows a substantial reduetion from three yeare ago, when only 45 per cent. of the' enrolled voters wen1 to the , pone, i The Progreseive defeat extended even I to Labor constituenekee Woolwich, fur instance, Arhere there is a large I majority of the working class, turned ' out the Progressive representatives; , and ele:ettel Reformers, Woolwich is 1 a tbstriet, where 'the 'taxpayers have , been outrageously mulcted by electric arta other municipal enterprise; The laet week of Londoe's Feat cam- paign against municipal Somali= waft the keenest political strugle in the mod. ern history of the metropolis. . Some developments of the week have been important as indicating the ex- tent to which Socialism pure and simple dominates the present . officialdom of the city. It has heen shown, for instance, that many public schools have been used on Sundays for so. called Socialist Sunday schools; the discrimivation by the authorities is fa Instratea by the fact that when the vicar of a parish applied for the. use ef a school room for a. Chureh Sunday school, he was told first that the care- taker Inust have a day of rest. fro. applied again, and was referred to the district managers, who took- 110 action at the time. A week later the room was in use by a Socialist Sunday. school. One of the By -Products. An interesting by-product of the progressive Socialist policy has been the introduction of muuielpal bIlIiards at the taxpayers' expense. The public reading -room and baths at Battersea have been filled with young men play- ing billiard, bagatelle, dominoes, i shove Intifpenny, etc., all the material being supplied at public; expense. It sheuld be explained that the reason why the progressive Soeialists have for so long held it majority of two to one in the County Council is that the average Londoner does net vote in local elections. At the last election in 1904 my about 40 per cent. of the elec- torate went to the pots. Then, too, the 'large extensien of muddied in. duttrial enterprises lias created an ormy of publie employees, who, of otin.se, voted (et nwse for their offi. dal employ -ere. This is one of the most serione features of the situation, for, if the present control continued and- carrieti out its extensive pr0. gramme of electrical tninsportation and other 'games, it would not be long before the publie employees would be sufficiently numerous to hold the eomplete balance -of pewer in London. and the eiev wont' be at the mercy of the Scaialist element. It Weili(1 naturally be supposed that the bright spring weether whieh pre- vailed yesterday would wild:ace to an enermous vote, which wottld mean a, deeisive 'victory for the Refermers, but the exact contrary was the fart. It is the habit of well-teedo Londoners to flee to the country and seaside for the week -end when the Aveather 14 favor- able, and hence the eeleetion 01 Sate - as the polling day was a great ad- vantage to the Socialist. "Saved London from bankruptey" are the coneluding t cords of the Daily MAWS editorial on the result of the County Council election of yesterday. If that has been doite then the women of London nifty entim full share in the work. Reports from many polling plares show that the women on the register vdted 111 such larger proper. tion than ever before, and that it great mitjority of them voted the munieipal refetm ticket. It woeld be unfair, per- ItapS4 to OSS111110 that Euglielt women are anti-Secialiet in thrir principles, but, at all events, the Alarming in - crew in the tax rate under it Seeitib ist administratiou fmmiehett them ample motive to vote optima the party Er-‘'s.111:enIsill4cogif°-orselitt'els have taken their amuse only publie resentment. defeet in ttnythieg. bat a idillosophieal and submissive split, their angry ex. postulatione that their politieel (laetril43. tient was due to "money ana mendaeity" tr D rot 'Vats the TOM and Ptide of Corsica.
