A New Franchise and Lower Rates The time has come for concerted action In the gas situation. This town wants a new gas franchise and lower rates for the small consumers. Appartntly there is but one way to secure this. Thai is by forcing the company to enter into negotiations. This can only be done by employing public sentiment and employing It In a tangible way. - All the possible ways of forcing the Light, Heat and Power Company Into negotiations should be used and backed up with all the force that the town has In it A suit has already been brought which will make trouble for the Light, Heat and Power Company. This suit will be met by the attempt on the part of the Light. Heat and Power Company to persuade the citizens of the town that the city officials and all those who are seeking to force the company Into giving lower rates and entering into a new franchise are trying to take away the gas from the citizens.

If the everyday man can be buncoed with this sort of talk this town will pay the penalty. j He must be willing to go without gas temporarily if he wants to get the reduction in rates and the benefits of a modern franchise. It is simply up to the man himself whether he ia long-headed enough to he willing to fight the Light, Heat and Power Company In every way that will hurt or whether he will give in and listen to all the wiles and persuasions that this corporation's brainy men down in New York can think of and ship on to its hirelings to use against the people of Richmond.

Readers of this paper are sufficiently familiar with the proposition of monopoly taxes the private taxes that every public service monopoly is levying by means of the rates it charges. t These are private taxes levied without representation for a private end. The people have no voice in the making of the rates. That is the reason that the people are justifified in stepping in and using every means in their power to forcing action at this time so that this situation can no longer exist. If the people had the means of fixing the rates through their representatives we should not care so much about the franchise rates are the main basis of contention. If the company turned over a certain amount of its gross earnings never falling below a certain cash limit and the residue used either in reducing rates or put into the city treasury for the reduction of taxes of all sorts there would not be the present situation. Yet In Iowa the cities have the power to fix the rates of public service corporations and If unjust these can be changed in the courts and all the evidence brought in and this has worked no hardship on the citizens nor the companies. In Kansas City the traction company has turned over eight per cent of its gross earnings every year to the city. If some arrangement of this sort can be made and it can be made so that from time to time as the conditions change there con be some relief without doing an. injustice to the gas company here the rates can be reduced and leave a certain dividend always certain to the company. The citizens can not afford to do an injustice in fact the courts of the land would not permit it; but on the other hand no public service corporation can afford to be unjust to Its patrons and reap serious disad-cantage.

We do not at this time think anyone in this town knows what the rates ought to be and out of fairness to the company we can say that this time 60-cent gas is an impossibility because of the lack of facilities in getting coal. Two cities in Indiana have 60-cent gas Evansville and Indianapolis and in both these places coal is much cheaper and coal is the whole basis of the gas business. ' But this we can say, whatever the fact may be all the people in -this town believe and seem to have reason for believing' that the rates' employed are excessive and Inasmuch as the rates, are virtually taxes the people ought to have some way of knowing what those rates ought to be and being able to change those rates as the conditions warrant.

Twenty-five years is a long time. Fifteen years is a long time. It will not do to grant a new franchise to the Light, Heat and Power company simply based on present conditions the 60-cent gas may be impossible now but an adjustment of the coal situation in Indiana may enable this gas company to make a great profit on its gas In the future. On the other hand if there is to be a shortage in coal from diminishing supply the company will not be willing to agree to what are fair rates now looking into bankruptcy in the future. One thing la certain. All the company has a.ny right to is a fair return on its investment. And another thing is very plain to the citizens of Richmond that they ought not to be tied up in the matter of rates as they are at the present time nftr in the future.

There is only one fair and just way out of this for all concerned. There should be a new franchise which will afford a fair adjustment of the gas rates from time to time and embodying modern features of protection to all citizens.

The sooner that the Light, Heat and Power company comes to see that the people of this town are determined in this matter, the better. The Light. Heat and Power company is in a very vulnerable position. -; . The Municipal Light Plant will find increasing favor in the eyes of the citizens if the Light, Heat and Power company does not come across and show a willingness to deal along the lines that everyone in Richmond is anxious for. The citizens are not the sort to be made to feel 'that they must have gas under any and all circumstances. The right way to deal with this matter Is for the citizens to back up the city administration in this fight and to stand back of it in its demand for a new franchise which will give an adjustment of rates. But It is up to the citizens to do this if they want a real relief from monopoly taxes in which they have no way of getting justice.

TWINKLES

A Lost Inspiration. (Life.) Seated one day at the mirror, I was weary of rats and puffs; And my fingers wandered idly Over the curls and fluffs. I know not what I was building Or what I was mimicking. But I struck a sort of coiffure Like the head of an Aztec King. It flooded my brows and temples In a most expansive way; And it lay on my cerebellum Like an overweight ton of hay. It fell into puffy billows, . Like that foolish old silk floss; It seemed a harmonious jumble Of excelsior and moss. It linked all my marcel wavings Into one humpy heap: Then coiled lna joly-poly. Like a kitten going to sleep, I have sought, but I aeek it vainly That one coiffure so fine That came from the head of Aztec And decorated mine. - -- - It nay be in soma abop window

That style I can yet procure; And it may be that only in Juja I shall find that grand coiffure.

Sunflower Philosophy. (Atchison. Kan., Globe.) Any man who loves his enemies will hate his friends. Did you ever hear a polie bride and groom joke that was funny? Some dead beats manage to line a lot of good people to their defense. There is one thing a woman has the most perfect confidence in her own "taste." One can get a lot of comfort out of an old overcoat when he cant afford a new one. When you try to act smart, people say, "He's putting that on," but iys real with T. R. When an attempt at suicide fails, do you think the big bookkeeper charges it up to proft and loss? SnappK. i.rii eggs. A snapping turtle lays about twe dozen eggs. These are placed In damp sand tn a boliow scooped out by thr turtle. The mother turtle almost or wholly buries herself in tbe sand. Then In crawling out ebe leta tbe sand over her shell fall upon the eggs, thus covering them. Tbe eggs are white and almost perfectly round and have a cry thin, hard ahelL-Sc Nteholaa. .

NEWS FROM THE LABOR WORLD "THIS DATE IN HISTORY"-

Wisconsin's labor commissioner recommends an eight-hour day for children. Cotton mills closing down at Enschede, Holland, have made eight thousand idle. The pugilists in and around London, England, are about to organize a union. v The National Federation of Postoffice Clerks held its convention in Chicago this week. .

The nineteenth annual convention of the Missouri State Federation of Labor convenes at Jefferson City, Mo., Sept. 19. Many contractors, employers of labor, bankers and business men contributed to the Kansas City, Mo., Labor Temple fund. The Canadian Grand Trunk Railway Conductors and Trainmen's unions are going to establish a pension system Independent of the company. The National League of Barbers in convention at Pittsburg, Pa has adopted a strict sanitary policy and will urge it upon various state legislatures. Owing to the general strikes and lockouts In which the differences between the German shipbuilders and their employes culminated, all work in the German ship yards is at a standstill. In Australia a seamen's compensation act is in force which provides liability on the part of employers regardless of negligence on the part of the injured and gives damages for nearly every kind of injury. A communication from the International Carriage and Wagon Workers union advises that the international will oppose to the extent of its power any transfer of its members to a sister organization. The Birmingham (England) city council has adopted a rule that the standard wages in districts where work is executed for that English city should be paid not only by contractors, but by sub-contractors.

Boston used to have a municipal ice plant, printing office, etc., but they were discontinued because the work could not be done as cheaply as by private concerns.

Hems Gathered In From Far and Near Slandering the Ohio. (Chicago Record-Herald.)' Cincinnati is celebrating the centennial anniversary of the opening of navigation on the Ohio river. By having most of the floats drawn through the streets instead of trying to find enough water in the river to prevent them from sticking on the muddy bottom, the people of Cincinnati are conducting the celebration with every indication of success. Better Not Let T. R. See Him. (Omaha Bee.) Mayor Seidel of Milwaukee, who refuses to receive Roosevelt, might slip around the corner and get' a glimpse of him while the crowd is not watching him, though. Explains Why He Visited There. (Kansas City Star.) Mr. Roosevelt gave Osawatomie, Kan., more tame in one day than old John Brown was able to give it in five years of rugged endeavor. Would Do For a Starter. (Houston Post.) If Roosevelt accepts the post of chief adviser to China, it is hoped that his first advice to her will be to stick her shirt into her pants. - Teddy Reveled in Such Troubles. (Chicago News.) If it were not for the Insurgents and the standpatters and the manufacturers and the consumers Mr. Taft would almost enjoy being president. Prefers Being the God of War. (Nashville American.) About the only Bryanlsm that has not been Teddized is the "Prince of Peace." He doesn't want that. In the "Minor Mention" Class. (Baltimore Sun.) "W. H. T. gets a favorable mention from "T.

Indigestion is one of the worst troubles of child-life in the summer time, and it manifests itself in many different ways.

Because of the inquisitivepess of the harbor police, a hitherto unknown South American revolutionary leader is likely to meet a sad reverse because of a lack of munitions of war. , Sergeant Van Tassel, of a harbor launch, was running off Erie basin today when he heard the chug-chugging of a naptha launch. No lights were showing and he turned on his searchlight, revealing a sixteenfoot, lead painted craft, heavily laden. The boat hove to an order and tbe occupants, Cesare Lumbordo, a Brooklyn soda water manufacturer, and Frank Jinste, a barge laborer, were arrested. Search of the launch revealed nineteen thousand rounds of-38-calibre pistol cartridges, manufactured by a Bridgeport (Conn.) firm. They were plainly manufactured from orders. Lombordo says he waa paid f 2 to deliver the cartridges to a ship in the bay, but alleges he does not know the came of the vessel.

On Prosperity Road Again is Former "Green Goods" King

(American News Service.) New York. Sept. 8. On the road to prosperity again, and along an honest road at that, James W. McNally. formerly the ring-leader of the "green goods' gang, is going forth rejoicing. He has been telling how much better it feels to be honest than it does to go along from day to day with the expectation of having the hand of the law laid upon him every moment. He has a Job down at Coney Island which pays him $50 a. week. He has engaged a flat where his wife, who has always been loyal to him, is "putting sunshine into the little home." "Jimmy" at one time had $2,000,000 that he could call his own. But he finally wound up in Joliet penitentiary a pauper. He was discharged from prison in- 1889. coming out with his left side shattered by a paralytic stroke. He landed on Hart's Island, a public charge, in 1908, remained there ail winter, and finally found a job. He is now serving as a waiter. But he declares nimself the happiest man In Greater New York, and for the reason that he has come to realize that honest work brings not alone its -financial reward, but happiness as well. Albert P. Lucas, one of the best known American painters of the nuds. paid a pretty compliment the other day to the physical attractiveness of the American girl as a type. In speaking of the relative merits of different! nationalities as art subjects he said : "Art knows no nationality, perhaps, but after years of painting in Paris from models of all nations, it pleased me to find on my return to my own country the most beautiful face and the most perfect figure 1 have ever seen. The face belonged to a young girl who sat to me for a portrait. Her family has been American for 300 years, so she is certainly an American type, and yet so classical." "It seems to be that a remarkable change has come over the American Ideal in the last ten years. Formerly the popular type of a beautiful woman was simply a very young and very much fussed up creature that an artist would not look at a second time of he could 'help it. Today real beauty is understood and appreciated. "The one thing more phenomenal than this change in public taste is the development of American art and artists. The pictures our young men are turning out are mervelous." To the friends of Miss Ethel M. Bagg, the pretty 23-year-old daughter of George R. Bagg, the announcement of her forthcoming engagement to Zentare Morikubo, a Japanese, has caused no end of surprise. Miss Bagg is a graduate of the Horace Mann School, and has been one of the most popular of the younger set in the fashionable West End section of the city. Morukubo is a graduate of Yale, '06, and a son of a prominent Japanese banker. He has been in this country since he was 9 years old, spending SCHOOL CHILDREN THE ATLANTIC
