THE Eleventh Hour One of Carriers
Great Scenic Efforts.

Lincoln ]. Carriers forte lies in the
production of scenic effects rather than
dramatic excellence. and it may be said
that The Eleventh Hour is one of his
best efforts in this direction. The play
was presented ar the opera house last
night to a good mouse, and was highly
appreciated by the galleries. especially
in the climax Of the last act. where a
milionaire's palace is turned into
rough house. The stage setting for this
act is grand.
This palace is forgeously furnished
It's owner had gone to Europe, and the
villain of the play, in order to carry out
his designs to win the heroine and her
fortune. rents the house for one night,
paying 81 600 The wedding is about to
take place. but "a, the eleventh hour the
hero arrives to rescue the young woman.
Then ensues a rough ana-tumbe fish.
which would put Five Point caucus in
New York utterly in the shade. All the
bric-a -brac, magnificent mirrors and
everything sma slabe is smashed. The
villain frees himself for an instant and
grasps a big arm chair. which he hurts
at the hero. II misses and strikes a
chandelier. When the police arrive then
comes the climax. and the whole gallery
is on its feet shouting itself hoarse.
1.-The Eleventh Hour" will be repeated
tonight.

GRANT THE FRANCHISE.

The SIGNAL believes in public
ownership of electric light plants and
water works, but with all that we
say now, let the City council grant
the Baker City gentleman the fran
chise for light and water, if reason
able conditions can be determined
upon. Be sure and have clause
in the franchise by which the city
can purchase at actual cost. We
say this because we realize that we
are not likely to get city plant IN
side of two years at least, and in
that time Weiser will lose more in
hard money and prestige than three
or four plants are worth. In one
way and another we have lost prob
ably, 800, 900 because the plant
did not 60 in last summer. If this
plant lis put IN, Weiser will grow
$3.50, 600 and perhaps twice that in
the next twelve months. Rather
than lose this growth, it is better to
let private capital install the system
and buy it later on when we are not
confronted with so many adverse
conditions. The time has come when
Welser must-positlvely must
have this improvement All build
ing property in the town is hanging
on the ragged edge of destruction by
flames every hour of day, and we
cannot afford to be ruined. Weser
will be set back ten years by a big
fire. We cannot wait two years for
it for score of reasons. We would
have nothing done without ample
provision for the future, and all
safeguards possible consistent with
proper consideration of what is due
those who put their capital in. These
Baker gentlemen have the money and
are ready to go to work at once.
That work gong on soon will
build half dozen more brick build
ings this year Do not compromise
the city unwisely, but if fair terms
between both parties can be agreed
upon, let them have the franchise.
If we cannot agree with them, let us
offer it to someone else. We cannot
afford to daily any longer.
