Hint:

egalitarian

?Middleton

St. Louis River

There would never be an egalitarian society in Middleton, a beautiful small town bordering an embankment of the St. Louis River. An elite family ruled effectively and the citizens were quite happy to have such elegant, although sometimes elusive, rulers. Each daily edition of the town paper spoke eloquently of their efficient town even listing improvements in the basic elements of life in Middleton. The recent flow of effluent into the basement of several homes in the town center was quickly cleaned up. The paper reported that five days had elapsed before the rulers of a nearby town had responded to a similar problem. In Middleton the problem was fixed and cleaned up within hours.
米德?tīng)栴D永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)成為平等主義社會(huì)。米德?tīng)栴D是一座位于圣路易斯河岸邊的美麗小鎮(zhèn)。一個(gè)精英家族治鎮(zhèn)有方，市民們也很高興擁有如此明君，盡管他們有時(shí)也有些難以捉摸。鎮(zhèn)里的報(bào)紙每天每版都大談特談這座鎮(zhèn)是如何的高效率，甚至還列出了米德?tīng)栴D在基本生活要素方面的改進(jìn)。最近流進(jìn)鎮(zhèn)中心幾戶人家地窖的廢水很快就得到了處理。報(bào)紙報(bào)道說(shuō)，鄰鎮(zhèn)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)在類似問(wèn)題上過(guò)了五天才做出反應(yīng)，而在米德?tīng)栴D問(wèn)題在數(shù)小時(shí)內(nèi)就得到了解決。
