As far as the action Of the board of
aldermen extends the American Tele-

sofa has been granted twenty-five year
franchise to operate a long-distance and
local telephone system in the city of St.
Paul, within certain limits and restrio-
tons:
The ordinance granting the franchise.
as passed by the board last night, pro-
vides that 1t shall not be an exclusive
franchise; that there shall be no transfer
of stock or consolidation with any other
company or companies without two
third vote Of the council; that no poles
shall be erected within certain limits (the
business part Of the city); that the COM

the company shall pay to the city per
cent Of the gross earnings of its local
business. furnish the city with twenty
sets of phones free of charge. and all
other phones 1t uses at one-half the
rate charged to others.
The ordinance had come from the COM

that 1t pass. and a motion to adopt such
report provoked an extended discussion,
participated in by Messrs. Donahower,
Sanborn, Kenny and Shepard.

but Aid. Donahower wouldn't have it that
way. He said he was certainly in favor
of granting "a franchise for a long-dis-
tance telephone, as he recognized it as
a necessity, but he could not understand
why q long distance and local telephone
systems were 50 inseparable, and why a
company would not be willing to put In q

The people of this city are very wei
satisfied with the work that has been done
by the Park and Tree Commission. What
has been done In the way of tree plant
ing only makes them anxious for more
of the same kind of improvements.
The time is close at hand when it will be
seasonable for tree planting. There are
many vacant places in the squares, and
along the streets and in the parks-par
ticularly in the avenues in the Park EN-
tension. A tree should be planted wher-
ever it promises TO add to the city's beauty.
The commission hasn't, of course, much
money at its disposal. 1t could use a
great deal more to great advantage, and
to the satisfaction of the public. Can
not council see its way clear to giving the
commission more money for tree planting?
We are sure that il could not make an
addition to any other appropriation which
would be so generally approved by the
citizens. Money is being used in some
other ways that will not leave such a last
ing impression as money put into trees
would.
We don't pretend to question the wis
dom of the commission in fixing the price
at which trees will be planted on the
sides of streets at the request of property
owners. 1t seems to us, however, that
if che present price is maintained it will
not be many years before the sides of
streets win be practically bare of trees.
On Jones street, east, for instance, the
trees are rapidly disappearing. Not very
long ago that was one OF the most beau
tifuly shaded streets in the city. The
storms of recent years, however have
wrecked the trees, and now old and broken
they are rapidly dying. Trees ought to
be planted all along that street just as
soon as the tree planting season opens.
And there are other streets which ought
to be treated In the same way. If Sa-
vannah Is to remain the Forest City" the
planting of trees must be carried on jul
diciously and continuously, and there must
be some plan adopted for the planting of
trees on the sides of streets which will
make il compulsory for property owners
to pay at least part of the cost of the
Improvement.
Under the present plan of planting trees
in front of residences and vacant lots only
when the owners of the property pay for
them, there can be no uniformity in the
shade tree Improvement In front of some
reside noes there will be trees, while in
front of others there will be none Trees
are just as much an improvement as side
walks, and should be planted wherever the
Park and Tree Commission thinks they
should be, and the property owners should
be required TO pay the actual cost of
them. Unless this course is pursued 1t
will not be possible to have the streets
properly adorned with shade trees
in very few years Oglethorpe avenue
will have a superb avenue of live oaks
and Liberty street fine avenue of mag
nolias, but unless trees are planted on the
sides of these streets their beauty will
be far from what it should be.
