ROANOKE, VA, MARCH Is, 1893.
POLES AND A TAN.

a decision of the United States Su.
preme Court rendered last week may be
found OF value to the city Of Roanoke
The case at issue was that of the city OF
St. Louis VS.. the Western Union Tele-
graph Company, in which the Supreme
Court established the rule that tho CITY
OF ST. Louis had the right to impose a
license OF IS per year on each telegraph
or similar pole within it's precincts.
The ordinance on which the suit arose
was passed by the st. Louis councils in
1855 gu. the company ignored the law
In lsss a suit for SIS 900 due for such
rentals o. taxes from the company was
brougn.
After running the gauntlet OF the Mis-
souri, colrts tho case was taken to Wash
ington, where the Supreme Court in an
opinion delivered by Justice Brewer it
was established that the s. per pole was
evidently not license tax for it was
not laid on the basis of the amount of
business done. 1t was rather a rental
charged Tor the use of the public streets
and, the eminent Justice contended, the
city TAD as much right to charge a
rental n this case as for the use OF
room in the City Hall. There was
nothing, the Justice said, in tho charter
OF the company exempting it from tax
alton on the ground that tho public
streets 0. city are post routes.
This decision makes clear a method
whereby.the streets Of Roanoke may be
relieved OF quantity of unsightly, un-
necessary and obstructive poles. Their
increase is Of an alarming nature and
the most casual glance will reveal the
need al radical reform.
The City Council would do we'll to
take the matter up and thoroughly in
vestigate it. THE TINES strongly favors
poles owned by the city and rented to
the te.o phone and telegraph companies
Next 10 this a pole tax should be i'm.
posed neavy enough to make it wise
for them 20 get rid Of Unnecessary poles
and as ta7 as possible put their wires in
cables anl use the Same set OF poles
The poles are disfguring and the
wires renace.
