The Committee on Lights Makes It's
Report.
First Reading On Ward
Line Ordinances.
.Abatements From Sewer Assess
ments Recommended.

There was an adjourned meeting Of
ths Mayor and Board of Aldermen of
South Portland last evening and all were
present except Alderman Davis. The
ordinance dividing the city into wards
was introduced, the committee on lights
reported and abstements on certain sew
or ASS ssnents were considered.
REPORT OF COMMITTEES ON
LIGHTS.
Altar the records of the previous meet
ing were read and approved, Alderman
Willard, chairman of the committee on
lights, reported that the COMMITTEES had
considered the proposition Of the different
electric light companies for the privilege
Of erecting poles in the city and recon-
mended that the Cumberland llluminat-
ing company be granted exclusive rights.
the proposition Ia as follows: They
will furnish the city of South Portland,
free Of cost. 10 arc lights for the term of
one year and thsreaftersas long al. they
have exclusive right six arc lights free of
cost They will also furnish 20 iucan-
descent lights for the city rooms. ana
will give the oity to hold as its own $1,000
stock in the Cumberland Illuminating
company, with personal guarantee of 6
per cent.
Any additional lights the city may
desire, they will furnish at the rate OF S75
per arc light or their equivalent in in
can lescent lights--one arc light to
equal five 25-candls power incandescent
lights.
They will come In on such poles as the
city may designate and will give per-
mission to any telephone or telegraph
company to string wires on the poles.
Alderman Scamman moved that the
report be accepted. Alderman Tilton
seconded the motion.
Mayor Reynolds asked If there was any
suggestion ms to whether the company
would put their wires on the poles now
on the street. He was informed that
there was such suggestion. The report
was accepted and placed on file.
WARD LINES.
Alderman Scamman then introduced
the ordinance relating to ward lines
which has already been published in
substance, and it was given it's first read
logs.
Alderman Fickett read an amendment
to certain lines in Ward o, and tho
amendment was fllsd.
Mayor Reynolds then called attention
to certain figures made by the assessors
as to the number OF poll tax payers,
which was found to be l743. He said
that City Clerk Knight estimated that
there were in the city 1888 aliens. This
would lsays 1905 voters and that number
coincided pretty nearly with the basis
1890. on which the city was divided into
wards as follows:

AN EXTRA SESSION.

The president is reported to be con-
sidering the propriety of calling con-
gress together in extra session in Oc-
tober. Doubtless there are many ques-
tions which he is DESTROYS of having out
of the way before next years campaign
begins, when he expects to be a candi-
date for reelection.
If congress should not meet until
December the election of a new speaker,
the appointment of committees and the
usual holiday recess would throw the
actual business of the session well into
the new year when the usual political
excitement incident to a presidential
campaign will have assumed consider
able proportions. Desired legislation
might in consequence be rendered ex-
fremely difficult or even impossible.
The customary disposition to await
another rendering of the peoples YER
dict would doubtless arise to embarrass
the administration and the party
which it represents.
All things considered, the extra ses-
sion appears to be likely event.

PUBLIC UTILITIES.

, tFrOm the Syracuse Herald
! The spirit of municipal ownership ex-
itends rapidly. 1t is very likely to be
ZONE of the most important issues in the
coming municipal elections. The sue
,cesses won in western cities have in
fused a new spirit into the progressive
people elsewhere and the doctrine of the
right and propriety and wisdom of mu-
nicipal control of the public utilities has
rapidly developed.
1t is among coming things that the
corporation of the city of New York
shall own and operate it's gas plants,
and it's is evident that the movement in
this direction can not be checked by ap-
plying hard names to it. The terms
corporations, octopus and other
ugly names will not deter it,
1t is argued with force and plausible
sty that municipal ownership will save
the consumers large sums of money;
that many abuses and exactions of the
private companies will be done away
with; and that large districts from
which gas is now kept out by reason of
Its cost will become consumers to mu-
tual and manifest benefit. With the
introduction of municipal ownership in
all the large cities there will be abol-
ashed all the sources of the heaviest
public scandals; better as we'll as
cheaper service will be rendered; and
the people will come into control of
what justly and properly is theirs.

Millions. says the Denver Post, are
finding their struggle harder as the in

of existence. The small business man
is crushed to the wall because he has
no means to withstand the pressure
brought to bear upon him by the trust.
He is forced to give up his business and
retire to the ranks of the wage earners.
but these ranks are overcrowded and
