To the Editors Of the Appeal:
We see from this mornings issue OF
your paper the Gas COMMITTEES made
no report to the board yesterday. The
propositions from the Gas Company
through their representative 10 the
committee are so ridiculously absurd
that We feel II public duty TO protest
against its acceptance. The idea of
exclusive privileges in a city the size
OF Memphis should not be tolerated
Tor one moment. at is incompatible
with our form OF government and re-
pulsive to the intelligence OF the pres
ent enlightened age" Experience
furnishes abundant proof that where
legal monopolies are created they
manage in some way to Cypress the
people, however fair the agte ements
with the authorities may seem at the
time OF their crestion. Suppose the
City Council should contemplate ss-
Tiously giving the exclusive banking
privileges Of Memphis to one bank, or
the insurance business to one insur-
ance company, or to one oil company
the exclusive right to crush cotton.

And yet, from business standpoint,
they are para lei uses with the pro-
pose agreement which the Memphis
Gaslieht Company is urging on the
City Council. OF all times ia the his.

rage bid fair to be a happy one. After
dining heartily the wedding guests

who was apparently in high spirits,
accepted, but asked his wife to 90 on
