ASSEMBLY PASSES
LOCAL DAM ! bill
ACTION TANEN ON MEASURE
AT MADISON YESTERDAY
P.L. Utley, Manager for the Water
town Gas and Electric Com
pany. Notified Yesterday After
noon-Will Raise Three Feet
When Settlement is Made.

Bill 1915, amended, giving the
Watertown Gas and Electric company
the right to raise the Rough and
Ready dam thee feet, under certain
conditions, passed the assembly
yesterday.
The information was received
yesterday afternoon by P. l.. Utlev.
the manager for the company, from
f. W. Hall of Madison, one of the
attorneys for the company. 1t is
expected that the measure will also
pass the senate.
In speaking of the success in get
ting the bill this far along after a
struggle for three years, Mr.. Utley
stated yesterday that the work of
raising the dam would begin just as
soon as the company could settle with
the property owners who claim that
their property would be affected bv
the raising of the dam.
In the event of the raising of the
dam, which now seems quite likelv.
it will give the company 100 additional
horsepower, which they feel is a
necessity to meet the demands for
commercial and industrial use as their
capacity at the present time is taxed
to it's utmost.
There have been vague rumors
about the city from time to time that
the object in securing the raising of
the dam was to transmit power IN the
operating of the new interurban line
now in course of construction. Mr..
Utley laughed at such a thought and
made the statement that the additional
100 horse power which the local con-
Germ would secure, would not b. a
drop in the bucket in operating such
a system.
According to the terms of the bill,
the cIty's interests are to be protect
ed, as the company cannot proceed
TILL the plans are approved by the
city, and the company has settled with
property owners who would be dam
aged.

Tuesday, which was largely attended
by the doctors of the county. Dele
gates were present from most of the

nature of an outing for the medical
fraternity and such it proved to be.
The doctors were entertained royalty
by the physicians three and citizens of
Palmyra and vote them one and all
royal hosts. Too mucn cannot be said
of the hospitality of Drs. Searle,
superintendent of the Palmyra Springs
Sanitarium, and wife and also Drs.
j. krithely and F. w. brumley
through whose efforts every minute
of the day was made both pleasant
and profitable. A banquet in the
dining room of the sanltarium was
relished by the hungry M. DIS. anS
more so inasmuch as the same was
preceded by an address of welcome by
Mr.. Carlin, president of the jefferson
County Fair association. His rem rks
we're both witty and eloquent and made
the diciples of Hippocrates feel al
home and induced them to forget then
troubles for the time being. A paper
ON "Traumaic Epilepsy. was read
by c. Howard Searle, M. D., which
was discussed by the members pres
ent and commanded the attention OF
the meeting. Doctors Field, Moulding
and Shinnick of this city, were
present.

Newspaper Rulings.
soME INTERESTING DECISIONS AY United
sTATEs SUPREME COURT AS TO THE
LIABILITY OF SUBSCRIBERS.

/. If subscribers order the discon-
tinuanco of their periodicals, the pub
Usher may continue to send same until
all arrearages are paid.
2. If subscribers refuse to take
their periodicals from the p~ostofice to
which they are addressed, they are re-
sponsible until they have settled their
bills and ordered the paper Ter other
periodically discontinued.
8 If subscribers move to other
p aces without informing the publisher,
and the papers are sent to the former
address, subscribers are responsible.
4 The Court has decided hat re-
fusing to take periodicals from the
postofice, or removing and having
them u~ncalled for, is prima facie evil
dence of intentional fraud.
5. If subscribers pay in advance,
they are bound to give notice at the
end of the time if they do not wish-to
continue the periodical otherwise the
publisher is authorized to continue
sending it and the subscriber is respon-
sible until an cypress notice, with pay
ment of all arrearages, is sent to the
publisher.
6 The latest postal laws arc such
that a newspaper mar can arrest any
one for fraud that takes his paper and
refuses to pay for it. Under the law,
the mar who allows his subscription to
run along Tor some time unpaid and
then orders it discontinued, or orders
the postmaster to mark it refused and
has a postal card sent notifying the
publisher Of such fact, renders himself
liable to prosecution, arrest and fine,
the same as for theft.
