seems to me that much of the effective

the unjust verdicts of acquittal avoid

articles of utility now produced by
it's aid. The residents of many
cities in the United States have
their houses protected, lighted and
heated by electricity. They go to
their places of business in cars run
by electricity, the elevator by which
they reach their office in high build
ings, or the machinery in their fac
tory is run by electricity. The bell
which summons them to church is
rung by electricity and the church
organ is played by electricity. Elec-
tricity brings the news to them
from all parts of the earth; stamps
their letters, automatically sounds
the alarm in case of fire, rings the
door bell, cooks the food, and fans
thdm while eating it. When they
go to the dentist their teeth are
drilled and filled by electricity, and
miniature electric lamps are now

legislature. The Douglas county
commissioners seem to have taken
rather an extreme view, although
the term householder does not, OF
course, mean necessarily property
owner. In Oregon it has been held
that "a single man who keeps
house and servants is householder
within an act requiring petitioners
for the opening of road to be
such" In New York it has been
decided that lessor of mill and
the owner of the machinery therein
is householder. In Texas sin
Gle man who rented a house which
he occupied with his brother was
declared a householder, but Lord
Chief Justice Cockburn thought
that "a man cannot be house
holder who has not an Independent
occupations" servant who occu-
pies as necessary part of the service
is not a householder.
In Mississippi "a householder
need not be either father or hus-
band, but must occupy toward 9th
ers the position of head or chief in
in a domestic establishment" 1t
does not subject him to property
qualification Under the old Eng
fish laws householder includes all
tenants, but excludes dodgers and
those having no permanentinterest
in the place, although having a
temporary residence. In Alabama
householder has been defined as
"somethirg more than the mere oc-
cupant of a room or house; it i'm
plies the idea of domestic estab-
lishment."
While, therefore, a householder
nred not be a property owner it
seems to be generally recognized
that he need not be a married
man.-P. [.

WHAT IS A HOUSEHOLDER?

A peculiar construction has been
placed upon the new road law in
Douglas county because the word
householder" instead of "freehold-
err" is used. According to the de-
cision of the commissioners of that
county, householder" means the
head of family, and nothing else.
The decision grew out of a road
contest, where the question was
raised as to who was meant by the
term householder" The COM
missioners have ruled that house
holder means the head of family,
and does not necessarily mean the
owner of property. To this extent
they are right, but lis represented
that they hold, therefore, that an
unmarried property holder is dis
qualified from having any legal
rights as a petitioner in road mat
tiers, and accord to the portionless
married man a privilege not gener-
ally supposed to be intended by the

Gil last January, paid from the

a step forward, and owing to the fact
that our streets are already "macadam-
izel," we can, if we want to, have as
fine, smooth streets as can be found
anywhere at very small cost as COM
pared with the outlay our neighbors
were forced to make in order to secure
what they have. My plan is cover all
the principal streets of the town to
depth of about three inches with crush
ed stone. There is an abundance of
raw material within easy reach, and it
can be hauled, crushed and spread on
the streets at a comparatively small
cost, as the county owns crusher
which can be secured without cost
and if the work is done before Novem-
ber the convict labor can be utilized.
The third and last suggestion 1 have
to make is that the town put in an
electric light plant for lighting the
streets and the places of business and
residences of those who want it. Ow-
ing to the condition of our streetiamps,
it will soon be necessary to make new
arrangements for lighting the streets,
and why not use electricity? AS to
the probable cost of this, know moth
ing definite; but am informed that it
will not be excessive.
Somebody will say. "And how do
you propose to raise the money to car
ry out these schemes?" l reply, by
taxation. Let the town issue $40, 900
6 per cent. bonds. I believe that sum
will do all the work outlined. This is
the only way such work should be
done. Everybody, rich and poor,
black and white, will be benefited by
the improvements, and everybody
should help to pay the bill. An an
nual tax of mills, on basis of present
valuation, will pay the interest on the
bonds. Let the progressive people Of
the town think over the scheme and
let US act with as little delay as posi-
BILE. Prompt action is of vital impor-
tance. We have already waited too
long. We must be up and doing.
In conclusion, I desire to say that
I do not own one cents interest in
the college building, either directly,
or indirectly, and do not expect to
take the contract for repairing the
streets or putting in an electric light
plant, and will also say that it is
not my desire or purpose to place
"burden'' on other mems shoulders
that l am unwilling to help carry my
self, and that am TAX PAYER.
