GAS QUESTION AGAIN.

There is one instance on record at
least where the gas companies do not
want to pipe gas from this state into
another but may be compelled to by law.
West yirginians WAC are so anxious to
keep gas within the state, however, will
doubtless sympathize with tae law That
may, compel this company 10 pipe IL
out of the state.
The Wetzel Gas Company, of New
Martinsyille, notified the consumers Of
gas at Darlington. oaio, Saturday
that at IL o'clock tomorrow the gas
would be entirely smut of from the town.
TIE trouble dates back TO about Feb
ruary Is. last, when an inspector repre-
santing the Wetzel Gas Company visit
ed Darlington and notified all parties
that were burning gas by contract in
cook stoves That unless they used an
improved sectional burner or gas range
after March l. would be required to pay
50 per month winter rate) instead of
~ anu ~ net summer Fatel, instead
Of $50.
This increase in price seemed to ex.
cite the people TO action and they de-
manded that tae council take up the
matter and regulate the price of gas,
as this was the second rise in price
since the gas company instituted taeir
plant there in 1897 The franchise
held by tn, said gas company fixes no
prize at waieir they shall charge for
gas, and agreeable to Ohio laws, tine
council met on February II. ana enact
ID an ordinance regulating the prize
which is to be charged by them wnen
they commenced furnishing gas to the
inhabitants fthat village. Legal steps
will be taken to enioin tae gas company
from shutting frtne supply.

PLUG UP new CODE
Judiciary Committee Takes
Care of Many Leaks

The house judiciary committee has
accepted a new pure food code in place
Pof the revision commissions chapter
relating to the subject. The new chap
ter, accepted at a meeting of the COM
mittee yesterday, has the Endorsement
of e. K. Slater, state dairy and food
commissioner. 1t was drafted by
commission objected to the substitu-
ton, but the committee insisted on the
action.
The judiciary has also accepted a
number of amendments and reinstate-
ments of the old law relating to the
state auditors office. This was also
prepared by Mr.. Somerby Most Of the
amendments relate to public lands and
mineral leases of the state, and were
approved by State Auditor Iverson. One
of the most important changes was to
substitute the old law for q provision
established by the code that state uni
versity lands should only be sold on the
request of the state board OF control.
The lands will be sold at the discre-
made 10 provision for state institu-
tions lands and state capitol lands.
There are 10000 acres of state institu-
lions lands. The capitol lands have
been sold, but portions of them may re-
vert to the state through default in
payments. The new chapter will pro-
vide that these lands are to be sold as
public school lands. A law, omitted
from the code, holding the surety liable
for contractor who fails to cut the
timber under a state permit, Is also
reinstated. The authority to the audi
tor to take possession of lands on
which the contractor has failed to keep
the terms of his contract. is also REIN
stated. A number of old laws, relating
to the mineral leases, are also returned
to the code. They had been omitted
from the revised code.
