ELECTRIC LIGHTING
Satisfactory Compromise Reached Be
tween Mayor Querbes and Mr.. Nor
ris of the Electric Light Plant

1t is pleasing to note that >atlStaC-
tory compromise has been reached be-
tween Mayor Queries and Mr. Morris
of the Shreveport Gas, Electric Light
and Power Company, which will insure
electric lights to consumers at rate,
which are fair AMI reasonable.
This compromise is the result of asi
tatiOn in the interest Of the people. Had
Mayor Queries been SO disposed, he
could have cxerted his influence to the
acceptance of the lighting company bid
received the benefits of the proposed re-
duction of rates Of the arc lights, but
when the mayorchook into consideration
the interests Of the consumers. there
arose questions which led to the move
ment for lighting plant to be owned
and operated by the city for the benefit
of the people.
On this issue the Caucasian was
aligned OH the side OF the people and
gaveCto Mayor Queries its ardent and
undivided support without any consld-
Grafton of reward, now or in the FUTURE
he Caucasian was prompted solely by
the dictates of plain duly, and while
all credit is due and should be accorded
! full measured to Mayor Queries, his
success would have been questionable if
The Caucasian had sided with the Times
and the Journal who are strong oppo-
nents of municipal ownership. This is
said in no vain spirit of gloritlcation, but
simply to emphasize the conditions as
they prevailed when Mayor Querbes and
! the ma ority of the council were striv-
| ing to secure the best advantages for
the public.
The compromise having been effected,
| will relieve the necessity of an election
as contemplated by an ordinance of the
council, pending for adoption on its sec
ond and third readings An election
would have preCipitated some lively com
motion, but as its result, there was
never a doubt entertained Of the success
| Of the proposition which would have
been carried by ma jority in number
and in amount. as required by law. The
| sentiment of the majority is strongly in
favor of municipal ownership which has
it's disadvantages as we'll as its advan-
| ltges However, the solution Of this
vexed question. as it has been, will dis
rupt no pleasant and amicablc relations
result which invariably follows an
election of which the Caucasian has had
it's full experience.
In congratulating Mayor Querbes we
would also hand Mr. Morris a bouquet
of good Wishes Being a man of broad
views and public spirited, he recognized
the situation, and as a practical, pro
gressive business man and a good cltlzcr
he acquiesced in compromise which in
the end will prove profitable to his com
pany as low rates for light will encour-
| age and stimulate the greater demand
for light
| The compromise will be incorporated
in an agreement which the council vii
ratify probably at its next session anC
will go into effect on the day which will
be fixed.

SPEAKING OF CONGRESSMAN.

The friends of Judge Madison over
the Seventh district who welcomed his
announcement as a candidate for con-
gress, believe that the campaign to come
will be made on the lines which should
govern all campaigns for public Office
that the selection will be made with the
single WOW of sending all able, con-
scientious representative to Washington.
The belief that this condition will gov
ern the campaign causes Judge Madi-
sons friends to be particularly well
pleased at his action In becoming
candidate at the present time,
because 1t furnishes very favorable
opportunity for securing congressman
who will represent the whole people Of
the district, and who will rank at the
head Of congressman from Kansas.
Following are few comments on
Judge Madison's candidacy, from news
