Citizens Mass Meeting
About 200 people braved the rain
tonight to be present at the much dis
cussed citizens mass me citing in Wood
mems hall for the consideration of the
question of municipal ownership of
an electric lighting plant. There was
no gag rule and everybody was given
opportunity to air whatever personal
opinions he might possess. o. 7.
Nichols by whose efforts the meeting
was called, was made chairman and
gave the principal address, taking as
his text comparative statement of the
rates for lighting as charged in ten
cities over the country before the es-
tablishment of municipal ownership
and after. His remarks We're called in
question by Manager a. l.. Selig and
President John b. Miller of the Edison
Electric company, whose rates and al
legged treatment of consumers have
brought on the present disagreement.
Remarks were also made by Council
man Root, Robert Allen, o. S. Patton,
Thomas Early, Harry Geohegan, w.
G. Woodhouse and others. The discus
sion was characterized in the main by
an evident desire to learn more about
an important question and seldom be-
came acrimonious. No definite action
was taken.
Boys viii Fight Charge
Five of the young men arrested on
Thursday night on disorderly charge
made by Conductor A. A. Allen of the
Jag car on the Pacific Electric en-
tered a plea of guilty today before
Justice Congdon, and We're fined mere
1y nominal sums. The other three,
j. F.. Mcdonald T. Garland and Il.
Hill, do not like the idea of being
fined for what they assert was mere
boyish fun, and not drunken reyelry,
as certain of the reports would have
it. The young men are Throop students
and were returning from spending the
evening with a friend at Highland
Park. They assert that they had not
been drinking, and the arresting Off
Ger upholds them in this, but that they
We're simply guying the conductor and
giving the Throop yells. When the
conductor expostulated with them, they
say that they gave three rousing
cheers and a tiger for that individual.
This superabundance of animal spirits
was their undoing. They have re-
tanned Police Judge Wood as their
attorney and will have jury trial
one week from today.
Buckeyes Organize
Twenty-seven former residents of the
state of Ohio met last night in the
G. A. r. hall and made preliminary
arrangements for permanent or
ganization. DR.. Gideon S. Case is tenn
porary chairman and Isaac Springer
temporary secretary. A committee
consisting of G. NJ. Burlingame Silas
Crowell and n. II. Culver was APP
pointed to prepare a constitution ana
bylaws and to nominate the permanent
officers of the proposed society An
other meeting will shortly be called by
this committee.
Slight Haistorm
A heavy snowfall upon the mountains
was a feature of cold, raw day in the
Crown city, and at one time a slight
fall of hail in certain sections of the
city. More or less rain fell during the
afternoon as well, and the annual rain-
fall is now running neck to neck with
that of year ago. AS far as reported
no damage has been done by the rain,
and the beautiful coating of white upon
the mountains will no doubt take hun
dreds of novelty loving people up the
canyons and trails tomorrow, the snow
line being quite a distance down the
mountain side and apparently within
easy reach
