her opportunity and tn the strong scene

the unhappy playwright had given her

Miss Holland is n pleasing actress who

HAS REFERENCE
TO ELECTRICITY
No Disposition to Mislcad Voters
As to Sale of the Gas
Works.
THE ISSUE CLEARLY DEFINED
Ii Primary is Held People May
BE Asked to Vote OH Munich,
pal Ownership.

The story printed In The Times Dispatch
Monday morning. to the effect that in the
event of the holding of a city primary this
spring, which is altogether unlikely. the;
voters might be asked to express their
views as to whether the city should own
its light plant. has caused some comment,
and the question has been raised that this
might mean the sale of the gas works
now owned and operated by the city.
Perhaps the language used In the aru-
Gle referred to was not quite explicit, but
there need be no fear on this line. The
gentleman who suggested the proposition
rs a member of the Council, and an ar
dent advocate of municipal ownership of
an electric light plant. He proposes to
30 before the city committee and ask, II
{, primary Is held, that these words be
printed at the bottom of the official ballot:
For municipal electric light plant
Against a municipal electric light
slant
Clearly Defined.
Not only Will this language clearly de-
Gne the issue, but In the event the mat
ter is submitted. 1t will be freely ard fully
discussed before the people, and no one
will be justified in the conclusion that
there Is any remote reference to the sale
OF the gas works. IL is hard to believe
that any one would imputc TO members
OF The Council ulterior motives in connec-
ton with the suggestions that there be
an expression of the people on the question
or that there is q suspicion anywhere. that
u trap would be laid by which, owing to
doubtful Language. men would be asked
TO vote upon one great question. when
they really thought they were passing
upon another.
The matter will be brought to the attcn-
ton of the city committee after Friday
nights meeting, ii 1t shall be determined
to hold a primary for councilmen and city
treasurer.

 men, but withal that. happy lot who
 were glad to get home again. The trip
 throughout was a most pleasant one.
 without disagreeable features. unless
 the tiip from Austin to Fort Worth
 might be so called: that ride rivaled
 Jackson's "On A Slow Train Through
 Arkansaw." It was impossible to se-
 cure special engine, so the national
 guard cars were attached to the rear end of a local. and stop was made about every ten miles on account of small sized stations. Consequently, much time was lost but the trip had a redeeming feature: the country be- tween the two places is one of the best parts of Texas and the men greatly enjoyed the many new things that were seen. Acres and acres of cotton stretched out across the level land as far as the eve could see. Reaching Fort Worth at midnight. the ride from there to Fl Paso. on the Texas Pacific. with special engine. was some better. Fl Paso was reached at ? o'clock yes terday morning, and right there lost time began to be made up. The first S6 miles out was made in S2 minutes, and the rest of the trip correspond | ingly fast So much time was made 1 up that the special arrived in Mari 1 copa yesterday afternoon at Q o'clock. where another engine was in wait so no time was lost the latter part of the | trip.

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC.

When we entered into an arrange ment between ourselves as to the de- livery of ice. we had no other end in view than to reduce the expense in cident upon a double set of delivery teams, resulting in lessening the price of ice to our customers, as well as an economic saving to ourselves. Our motives have been misconstrued and our actions misrepresented. We do not wish to be regarded by our patrons as conspirators, or as having entered into an arrangement in restraint of trade to the detriment of the rights of citizens with whom it is our interest to deal.
 Legal advisers have assured us that there has been no transgression of the statute in effect; we know there has been none in intention.
 Rather than further pursue our busi- ness with our customers fearing the existence of an arrangement between us unfair to them, we prefer that none longer continue.
