Decided Against
Gas Company
HARRISON COUNTY SPECIAL
JUDGE DECIDES ACT OF LEG
lSLATURE uNCoNSTl-
TUTIoNAL.

CLARKSBURG, Aug. g. Special
Circuit Judge Edward G. Smith at a
brief session of court yesterday de-
cided in favor Of the defendants in
proceedings by the Wheeling Natur'
al Gas Company against W. Brent
Maxwell and a dozen other land own
ers in this county for the condemna.
ton of easements for pipe line pur-
poses and declared the provision in
this respect, recently passed by the
legislature unconstitutional.
The provision in question dispenses
with the payment of just compensa'
tion at the time OF the taking Of ease
ment and requires the court to accept
a bond with personal security In lieu
Of cash and before the amount of dam
ages is assessed by jury.
Judge Smith held that this violates
the constitution Of the State. In ref
erence to the bond to indemnity the
land owners for damages, Judge Smith
declared that changes in the condition
Of SuTetleS III I'LL CdeeS requires duuA
tional bonds, but in this instance the
applicant contended that no additional
security can be required, and the pen
atty Of the bond can not be increased
In any subsequent proceeding.
"The constitution. said Judge Smith,
as not satisfied with any, even the
least, uncertainty as to just compensa:
tinn. At all times the owner Is en-!
titled either 10 his land or to his just
compensation therefor, without suit
and without delay"
Judge Smith directed that an order
be entered declaring the nrovlso void
and dismissing the proceedings. NO
tice Of appeal was given.

WASHINGTON, AUG. ss-It has been
q, long time since We had a IRE alarm,
but yesterday evening Just after five
O'clock the big whistle Of the Phillips
Tool Works blew the fire alarm. There
was a small blaze at the home Of Bush
snider, on Bunalo street. Not much
damage was done.
This town has been particularly
free from fires for long time and the
entire FIRE loss for last year was less
than one thousand dollars. The gas
meter is one Of the greatest preyenta.
.tiyes Of fires known. When people
burned gas by a fiat rate they we're
careless and would go away and leave
the fires burning and many fires were
caused by overheated stoves in this
way, but when they burn gas by meter
and the wheels go round" they are
much more careful. 1t then becomes
a matter Of dollars and cents.

as this will be.
