Az nIrORTANT QUESTION.

The greensboro Water company is
preparing to test in the courts a
question that will affect every city in
,he state. 1t will. according TO re
pcrts, file suits at owensboro
against the mayor and council to hold
them personally responsible for s45.-
GEO of the peoples money They have
spent without an appropriation. u
IL reported the company viii also
have them indicted il possible for
alleged malfeasance in office
The questions involved are the
right of public officials IN the face of
law that is plain on the subject to
spend money for some purpose Other
than that for which it was appro-
priated. Ii is done in all cities OF
Kentucky. and in some with a PERM
cious effect. In Paducah the general
council has this year spent $4,000
more from various funds than was
appropriated The law says this shall
not be done, and If it means what
il says. the courts will probably in
case of a fight such as proposed in
Owensboro, will hold the councilmen
TO answer. and in this way effect a
much-needed reform. In greensboro
the city officials are fighting the wa
ter company. and the water compa-
ny is going to fight back. The final
decision of the question will be
awaited with interest.

EnING DAMAGE SUITS.

A matter that is beginning to
claim some of the attention Of the
tax payers, as well as the attention
of all interested in corporations par
tioularly public utilities, is the pro-
miscuous and almost incessant filing
of damage suits. Here in Paducah,
within the past few months, suits
against the city of Paducah alone
have been filed aggregating half a
million dollars in round numbers.
To make a bad matter worse, the
city officials continue to court addi-
tional lawsuits by doing the same
thing, day after day, that led to the
fling of those already brought.
The records show that court costs
have cost the taxpayers over a thous-
and dollars more already than the
amount appropriated.
In regard to the damage suits fl
ed against cities and corporations,
the Lexington Herald says:
zone Of the most serious problems
which every public corporation has
10 consider is the number Of damage
suits filed by those who are either
injured by or feel themselves ag-
grieved at the action of some EN-
ploye or servant. It has gotten to a
Point in many cities where corpora
tions set aside a large per cent of
their gross receipts to special ac-
counts known as damage black
mail or settlement 1t is one of the
questions that is considered by the
officers of every corporation when
debating whether or not to enter a
state, and what rates to charge for
what they give the public. II enters
into the rates which the transporta-
ton companies charge, into the
prices which electric light, telephone
and water works and other public
uulity companies charge. In the last
analysis an damages are of course,
paid by the public Every time there
IS a verdict for damages against a
railroad that railroad must make
from the public that amount. Preju-
dice against corporations is such that
