Railroad Rate Bill.

Washington, D. c., Dec. 6.-The
Esch-Townsend railroad rate bill,
which passed the house last session.
has been Withdrawn, and was re-
introduced in the senate by Town
send The bill embraces all the fea-
lures of the former measure, but is
drawn so as to specify the things
which may be done by the interstate
commission. In addition,
it has a publicity feature and gives
Jurisdiction over refrigerator and ter
minal charges. 1t also directly pro-
hibits the railroads from granting
any shipper the privilege of collect

purpose
The city would be required to see
that there was no waste of water and
not to use sprinkling tydrants at the
time of fire. so as to injure the SER
vice.
The rate to private consumers
would not be greater than that charg-
ed at Albuquerque, which is not stat
ed, and the consumer could be re-
quired to furnish a meter and be
charged not to exceed 20 cents per
thousand gallons.
It would be understood that the
whole plant, mains, ETC., would be
the property of the company forever,
unless bought by the city.
Should the city grant street rail-
way franchise, the franchise would
have to provide that the electric cur
rent be returned to the power house
by metallic circuit.
city ordinance would have to be
passed protecting the water OF the
company from pollution and prevent
ing trespass and unlawful waste of
water.
The city would have the right to
buy the plant at the end of ten years
or at any five-year period thereafter.
The value of the plant would be fixed
by three disinterested parties.
Each section of the ordinance
would be the same as a separate or
dinance in it's strength and each sec
~,
the others.
The ordinance concludes with a
provision for the ordinance to be pub
lished five days, not less than ten
days before the election, and that
majority vote of the people would
confirm or reject the ordinance.
Inasmuch as the contention had
been advanced that the passage of
the anti-gambling ordinance at re
cent meeting was illegal, since there
were only five present voting for its
passage, the ordinance was again
presented for passage 1t was adopted
by a vote of seven to two, the two
aldermen. Burns and Ogle, who were
absent at the time the ordinance was
first passed, casting their votes with
those who voted Yes Thus the
question is now settl ed beyond the
shadow of doubt.

All members were present and May
or Hinkle presided when the city coun
Gil met in regular session for Decem-
Der last night. The big event of the
meeting was the reading of a new
ordinance, as the men who would
have it passed, have drawn it up. 1t
is a new ordinance giving a twenty
five year franchise for a city water
plant to DR.. ]. N. Chipley and Lee
Reynolds, two of the Denver men
who have been here for some time
getting up the Roswell Oil Company.
The ordinance was given the first
reading and is now up for discussion
by the people, as the council will be
glad to hear any comments before it
again comes up before them
The proposed ordinance provides
that Chipley and Reynolds be given a
twenty-five year franchise ito con-
struct a water works system for the
city of Roswell with wood or iron
pipes, main. condUits, and To con-
struct hydrants and service pipes in
the streets, alleys and public places.
and, further, to repair same. and to
furnish water for domestic use, fire
protection, irrigation, manufacturing
and other purposes. The ordinance
would also give them the right to
construct pumping stations, stand pip
es and other buildings and structures
One article provides that there
would be nothing exclusive about the
franchise, as other such franchises
could be granted at any time.
The company would be required to
delay public travel as little as possi-
BILE in breaking streets and alleys to
put down or repair mains, pipes, etc.
The proposed ordinance relieves
the city from all responsibility from
damage or accident on account of the
streets being torn up for the laying
and repairing of pipes, ETC.
Upon the passage of the ordinance
and its ratification by the people, the
company would be bound to proceed
at once and finish the plant in a rea-
scnable tine.
The company would have to fur
nish a good supply of wholesome wa
ter, to all who ask for it on property
abutting on streets where mains are
laid. under the company's rules. Such
persons could not be prohibited from
laying their service pipes by the
city.
The company would be bound to
extend the mains on any street de.
nnanded by the council by ordinance.
provided that the city take one fire
hydrant for every 4S0 feet passed by
the main, and provided. further, that
enough people take water rights
along the main to make sufficient re-
venue to pay 20 per cent of the cost
of putting in main.
The ordinance would provide that
the company put in six miles of
mains, and that the city take 65 dou-
ble-discharge hydrants that would
accommodate 2A-inch hose, these hy-
drants to be paid for at an annual
rental OF s47.5O per hydrant by the
city.
Another provision is that the fire
hydrants be used for nothing but fire
extinguishing purposes. Sprinkling
hydrants would be put in at such
places and numbers as desired by the
city, to be paid for at the same rate
as fire hydrants- The city would have
to pay for any damage done to fire
hydrants should it occur while they
were being used for sprinkling or 9th
