Will Shut Off Gas Supply at CIarington Tomorrow

This increase in price seemed
to excite the people to action and
thew demanded that the Council
take ND the matter and regulate
the price of gas, as this was the
second rise in price since the gas
company instituted Their plant
there in 1897. The franchise held
by the said gas company fixes no
price at which they shall charge
for gas. and agreeable to OHIO
laws, the Council met on Febru-

commenced furnishing gas to the

Mr.. Mace's Outlawed Claim.

The lone Echo, in commenting upon
the rejection of Fayette Mace's claim
for $3.50, alleged value of gravel taken
from his land and hauled onto the pub
lie roads in township two, says:
AS a simple matter of equity if it is
true that the county got the benefit of
$3.50 worth of gravel from Mr. Mace's
land and the understanding was that
it was to apply on the judgment against
him, he should be given such credit,
and if the fact be shown that such a
contract was ln 'rc'l into between the
county's representative and Mr.. Mace
before the gravel was taken, the super
visOrs, this paper believes, will deal
fairly in the matter.
Supervisor Amick asserts that he
authorized no such an agreement and
if he believed such was the agreement
he would pay it out of his pocket, be-
| fore Mr.. Mace should lose it.
There is no question that the gravel
was taken from Mace's land and spread
over the roads, whether to the extent
of 1000 yards, which is the amount
claimed, at % cents per yard, we do
not know. The county received the
benefit of the material. 1t is an ele-
mentary principle that private prop
erty shall not be taken for public use
| without just compensation. Whether
the county, through its agents or
| officers, entered into an agreement with
Mace to allow reasonable price for the
gravel, as Mr.. Mace claims, or whether
no express contract was made in regard
thereto, as the county contends, makes
not the slightest difference. The TAX
ing of the gravel was in itself an i'm
piled contract to pay. The only rea-
son. we presume, why the board of
supervisors did not go into the merits
OF the case. was, that they were es-
topped by the statute of limitations.
Over one year had elapsed since the
last load of gravel had been taken.
This was not denied. The law clearly
enjoins the supervisors from consider
ing any claim under such circum-
stances. By allowing any sum for the
gravel, they would have made them
selves liable to prosecution for paying
an illegal claim. There is no question
of equity about it. Mr.. Mace prob
ably had good claim in the first place.
By his own laxity he has lost what
ever rights he had in the premises.
Equity will not come to the aid of one
who sleeps upon his rights. It is I'M
fortunate that Mr.. Mace should furnish
gravel without pay therefor, but he,
and not the board of supervisors, is re-
| sponsible for that outcome.

THE RAILROAD CHANGE or
FRONT.

The sudden change in the railroad
situation so far as the towns of Jack
son and Sutter Greek are concerned,
has been the absorbing topic of con-
versation for the past week, The
concensus of opinion is that if the
railroad is pushed to its original
destination point near Martell's sta
tion this spring, it will remain there
for some time at least. How will
this affect the two towns-Jackson
and Sutter Creek-that lie equi-
distant north and south of the pro-
posed terminus? The intimation
has been given out that Jackson can
secure the extension of the road to
any suitable depot site within its
limits by paying tribute to the COM
pany for the same. The demand of
$40, 900 in cash, and land-over eleven
acres for depot site and the right of
way the entire distance from Jackson
to Oneida, taking q strip of so feet
on either side of the tracks, equal
to grant of at least $30,000. This
ultimatum is all the more remark
able when it is considered that from
the outset it has been held out by
the promoters that the people of
Amador county would not be asked
to contribute one cent, outside of a
convenient depot site in the towns.
Coming on the heels of this declara-
tion the demand of large bonus for
bringing the railroad into town, with
the implied threat therein obtained
that if the money was not forth
coming the terminus would be per-
manently located over two miles
away, has naturally kindled feel
ing of bitterness among the citizens.
We know not what the people of
Sutter Greek think of the PROPOSE
tion, but in Jackson-which repre-
sents the major part of the traffic
upon which the railroad must depend
for its financial success-the hos
tility is outspoken. A policy of
enforced contribution rifles up the
pugnacity of human nature. 1t is
much easier to awaken antagonism
than to appease it afterward. 1t is
therefore regrettable that the rail-
road authorities have taken this step.

Adolph Weber, the Auburn moral
monstronsity, has been found guilty
of murder in the first degree, with
out recommendation, for the murder
of his mother in November last, He
was accused Of killing all the mem
bers of his family, father, mother,
brother and sister, setting fire to
the home in the hope of destroying
the evidence of his crime. His de-
meanor since his arrest and during
his trial has been phenomenal in its
utter lack of feeling or realization
of the enormity of the tragedy. The
verdict carries the death penalty,
and was reached after q hours de-
liberation. While the trial was one
of the most remarkable cases of cir.
cumstantial evidence on record, the
outcome is universally regarded as a
just Judgment.

sacrifices, that success in any par
ticular path is properly appreciated.
The spirit of self-reliance should be
fostered above everything else.
That is the true bulwark of any
nation.
This tendency to lean upon the
government is seen in the drift of
bills in every legislature that con-
venes. An act recently introduced
providing for free text books in the
schools is a case in point. And the
discussion thereon serves to accent
uate the tendency. One legislator
said as a reason for passing the bill,
that he knew of children that were
kept from school because of inability
of the parents to buy the school
books. This play to the galleries
was no doubt considered a bulls-eve
hit-a clinching argument. He
might have added that children were
kept out of school from want of foot
gear and other articles of clothing,
and argued that a bill should be
passed to furnish free clothing for
all to meet such isolated cases. It
would be every whit as reasonable
as to provide free text books for all,
simply because one per cent perhaps
are unable to buy for themselves.
The attache nuisance - taking
money from the public treasury to
pay political debts-is in the same
line of business. Also the idea that
pervades more or less every part
of the state, that incites members to
quarter public buildings and institu-
tions within the boundaries of their
respective districts. 1t is nothing
less than clear-cut reversal of the
relationship of citizens to the gov
ernment-namely, that it is the duty
of the citizen to support the gov
ernment, and not the duty of the
government to support the citizen.
The latter is the socialist doctrine,
if not in words, at least in spirit.
1t has developed so alarmingly, that
ordinary methods of providing rev.
enue are voted totally inadequate,
and new-fangled schemes are sug-
gested to meet the growing evil.
No matter what gold-mines in the
shape of new tax projects are opened
up, the tendency herein referred to
will grow in an ever-increasing ratio
so long as it is fostered and en-
couraged by legislative action. Ex-
pansion will never stife it; the
breaking-point must be faced sooner
or later.
