LOCAL LESE MAJESTIC.

Because the gas company, concern
legally doing business in Paducah,
paying taxes and contributing In other
ways to the city government, dared
to protest against practice alleged TO
be injurious to its property, the mayor
gets on his ear and throws down the
gauntlet to the offending company.
OF course the gas company should
have quietly submitted to anything
the city chose to do TO it, but it didn't,
and now q threat is made to put it out
of business, and the mayor is credited
with wanting to know whether the
city or the gas company owns the
streets.
This is the quality of tact and fair
ness displayed on frequent occasions
by public officials in Paducsh. The
question of who owns the streets and
sidewalks in Paducah is one that has
frequently been asked recently by tax
payers wno5 have seen thoroughfares
torn up for weeks at a time aud the
sidewalks INSTRUCTED with thousands
of brick. The mayor in this case in
Inmates that the city owns them, and
since il does the mayor should see that
they are taken better care of, in order
that those who are entitled to use them
and pay taxes to keep them up, may
enjoy their rights. The mayor also,
in this instance by his resentment,
shows precious little regard for either
the rights of legally conducted con-
Germ, or of the taxpayers who have
to pay all the bills resulting from the
administration's blunders. In this
case the gas company claims the city,
in filling in excavations around gas
pipes, does it with coal ashes and Gin.
ders. which destroy the pipes. II is
reasonable to presume the gas COM
pauy would not have taken the trou-
BILE to file a complaint without ample
grounds, and the mayor knows If the
complaint is justified the city ia at
fault, for it has DO right to destroy
property that doesn't belong to it. 1t
has no more right to cover the pipes
of a private concern with something
that destroys them, than 1t has to
throw fire brands on o citizens roof,
and set fire to his house.

bued with the idea that they can ride

UNDERGROUND WIRES.

The question of placing wires under
ground is . timely one, for foremost
among the problems which confront a
growing city like Paducah, is what to
do with the rapidly accommodating
wires and poles. The custom in oities,
however, is not to require all wires
inside the corporate limits placed I'M
foreground as attempted by the ordi-
nance introduced here, but only those
in the busy centers. And it is not the
custom to require only one kind of
wire underground, but to require
buried all possible wires, telephone,
telegraph and other kinds. One COM
psny cannot be allowed to have its
wires strung on poles and another
denied the same right.
But those questions would properly
come before . court. The ordinance
referred to the aldermanio committee
in Paducah Monday night requires
telephone wires oil over the city to DO
underground, but no others. To comply
with it the entire city would have TO
be torn up from centre to circumfer-
ence and it is more than likely that IL
it came to choice sot hsying this
done and putting mp With the wires,
the public would chooss the Wires.
1t will probably be generally aa-
mitted that it is time eosssysousiy con
slider the question Of --pixctug wires
underground, especially fhoss in the
business part of the city. THE wires
that now disHgure thfs Section anti are
a menace during fires and storms,
however, are not solely telephone
wires,. Most of the telephone wires
are in cables, while there are scores
of loosely strung telegraph and other
kinds of wires. They all ought to he
placed underground il any are to be.
The person who drew the ordinance
introduced Monday made botch Of
it. He evidently had an Ak to
grind, and grinding axes is an
operation from which the public gets
little or no benefit. While the under.
ground wire question is up, it should
be settled in a fair, intelligent way if
settled at all. There are some people
who do not think that Paducah is
large enough for underground wires,
but "a stitch in time may Save
nine" 1t will hive to come some
day. and many think the sooner a start
is made, the bstter. soa II htol

SCRIPTURE IN THE SCHOOLS

SCRIPTURE IN THE SCHOOLS.
1t is to be hoped that no feeling
will be aroused over the Question of
reading the Scriptures IN the public
schools. In other places a great deal
Of strife has resulted from similar
controversies, and no good citizen de-
sires strife il it can be avoided. Pupils
have been taken from schools, the edu-
catjonal system impaired and even
shattered, and in some cities the
courts have been appealed to, and long.
humiliating and costly litigation has
resulted from just such controversies.
No one objects to the reading Of the
Bible. Civilized people commend IL,
for it can harm no one, and the world
mas been greatly benefited because OF
it. But not everyone who favors read
ing the Bible, favors reading IL in the
schools, because 80 long as the read
ing cannot be regulated or is not
regulated, In such manner as to
satisfy oil and offend none, 1t Is pro-
ductive of bitterness. The law is too
plain to justify any doubt as to the
duty of the board Of education. 1t Is as
follows: Section S217.
"All children entitled shall have
equal rights Of admission to and bene-
dts Of said school. wherein no cate
chism or other form OF religious be-
lief shall be taught or inculcated;
nor shall any class book bo used there
in which reflects upon any religious
denomination or sect, neither shall
any of said school be so conducted as
to interfere with the religious faith or
creed of either parents or pupils.
However this law may be construed
IL is very plain than its intent is to
preclude Just such controversies a.
the one which now threatens TO be-
come embarrassing in Paducab. And
il is plain that the law has for its
object the prevention of anything
tending to Interfere with the religi-
GUS faith OF creed of either parents
or pupils.

Drew Check to Himself.

A. L. McFadden was placed on
trial before Judge Cleland and a
jury yesterday on charge of for
gerry, preferred by J. B. Tillot-
son, his former employer, who is
contractor and logger. McFad-
den worked for Til1otson as a
bookkeeper and was discharged
in August 1903. Tillotson made
a practice of supplying McFad-
den with blank checks signed in
in blank and just before he left
the Office he filled out a check in
his own favor for $342 and cash
ed it. He said Tillotson owed
him this much for services ren-
dered.
Tillotson denies this, and states
that McFadden charged $I47 for
expenses he was not entitled to.
He testified that McFadden made
some trips for him out OF town
and said he paid the travelling ex-
penses, but was not supposed to
pay for board and room rent, as
there was no such contract be-
tween them.
The trial will be concluded to-
day. J. o. Stea1ns and w. S.
McFadden, of Corvallis, appear
as counsel for the defense.-Ore-
gonian.
The jury in the case on Tues
day brought in a verdict OF not
guilty, and McFadden was ac-
quilted after a few moments de-
liberation.
