COMPLY WITH FRANCHISE
Says County Court to Union
Utility Company.
Given Seventy Days to Fix west Side
Trolley LIne-Did not Leave IL Feet

of Road Nor Build on Grade-Com-
pany Says Requirements are Vague.
The county court this morning
passed an order directing the Fair
mont, Morgantown and Cheat River
Street railway company, or the
Union Utility Company or what
ever old company is responsible
for the West Side trolley line TO
comply with the franchise granted
them, by the county court in laying
their line on the county road be-
tween the West end of the suspen-
sion bridge and the Kecner property.
This piece of road was built by
the U. u. Company under the fran
chise ganted to the Fairmont, Nor
gantown and Cheat River street
Railway Company, the marvellous
name of which was changed to the
Fairmont and Morgantown Traction
Company, and now operates it under
lease from them.
The franchise required the com
pany, in return for the concession of
using the road to construct the line
strickly on grade; to leave at least
seventeen feet of road available for
travel on one side or the other; to
pave or macadamize space eight
feet in width, between and on either
side of the rails so that it is fit to
drive horses and vehicles over.
These conditions, it lis claimed,
have not been complied with. At
one place, between Keener's and the
Mary Ann Harris property, the
space left for travel is only IA feet
in width. The track has not been
macadmized or paved so it can be
used for vehicles and at one point,
the track is nearly two feet above
the level of the road bed.
A representative OF the U. U. Com
pany said this morning that the con-
ditions OF the franchise are vague and
indefinite, and II there has been any
failure TO comply, it was because of
misinterpretation of the requirements.
Furthermore, be said the railway had
been constructed on the line or the
road, and If there is not II feet left
It is because the road hasn't sufficient
width.
The court requires the company to
comply strictly with conditions with
in 20 days after the adjournment of
court.

tion Hospital Needed-No Honey to

From Friday's Daily.

From Fridays Daily.
A special meeting of the city
council was held last evening tor
the purpose of taking some action
on the recommendation made by
the Board of Health of the county
and the City School Board at their
joint meeting Wednesday evening.
The situation and its require
ments were thoroughly discussed
The council was unanimous IN its
opinion that the city should have a
competent health officer, to art as
agent for, or in conjunction Nth the
County Board of Health, and after
carefully going over the details,
appointed committee TO further
investigate the facts and report.
This committee, composed of
Councilmen Demoss and Moorhead
and Recorder Sisler, met after the
council had adjourned and are pre-
pared to make report at special
meeting OF the council tonight.
They will recommend the APP
pointment Of health officer by the
city council u act as agent for the
County Board of Health, This eli
Ger will be selected by the City
Hospital Association from among
their number, and i'll receive an
annual compensation for his services
of 1915 The report of the commit
tee will no doub. be adopted by the
City Council.
Another recommendation which
the committee will make will be the
building OF a detention hospital.
This was also thoroughly discussed
by the council last nigh. aud the
sentiment is unanimous that such
building is necessary.
The committee finds that it will
cost something like $4,000 to put
up suitable building One OF the
members said this morning: "The
City Council hasn't enough money
to buy pair Of settin' hens, and
while the committee will recommend
the building CT hospital, il will
not have any scheme TO offer TO &C.
complish it,"
That such a hospital is necessary,
is evident to everybody. Ifpatients
afflicted with Infectious diseases
could be taken there, the necessity
of cooping up a whole family Tor
week when one member is i'll would
be removed, The bread winner OF
the family could 60 about his EN-
ployment. One instance will Illus
trate the positive demand for such
a bull ling. A man pedGIed meat
about town The other dav, coming
from his home where one OF his
children lay i'll with scarlet fever.
The danger of spreading infection
by such practices is obvious.

DRAG USED ON TRACKS
To Clear Snow-Many People Watched
Operation With Interest.

Late yesterday evening. the snow
became deep enough to interfere
somewhat with the running Of the
street cars. and triangular drag,
attached to the rear of a car, was
used by Superintendent Switzer to
clear tie tracks. 1t was very effect
i've il accomplishing this, and the
cars were delayed in no instance.
The snow was fine and light, with
the fall of the mercury about sun
down. The drag in the rear of the
car caused mist of fine snow par
ticles, which caught the flashes OF
blue sparks from the rails and made
a pretty sight. Many people stopped
to observe it.

which is equivalent to saying that

A tender was made the Illinois Mining
company of the power shortly after the
option was secured but as nothing has
been done by the mining company to-
wards securing the franchise, the
holders are getting anxious and intend
TO pick up one of the remaining in
dustrials that they have on the string.
The most promising one is flour mill.
They have man who is willing to
put up mill here TO grind flour for
the trade and for shipment if the pow
or can be had and the freight rates are
made such that a mill here can com
pete with the big water power mills of
Minnesota The mill, if built will be
Of about 30 barrel capacity and will
be located somewhere in the city, the
power being conducted from the power
plant by electric wires. The mill will,
of course, be operated wholly by
electricity and will be so arranged
that IL can be operated with the least
expense possible Custom work will
be much sought after and il is the hope
Of the operators that in time the farm

instead Of hay.
