could be changed as wanted. The

usual BIZ nix, with the request that he
sign his name. This he finally did,
with great effort and in an almost IL

pany aud not the people who patron
ize il. There il no ueed for acting

NO NEED TO HURRY.

The question Of making or not
making q new contract with the Mid
land Water and Light Company is
occupying the attention OF good
many Of the peorle Of Dodge City
Just at present. 1t is possible that
there lie less cause for excitement over
this question than some seem TO
think. The only reason the writer
can conceive for wanting to make u
new contract would be to secure a
better rate than the company is giving
at present. So far, very little il any
thing in this line is promised. II IA
better contract can not be obtained,
there is really no reason or excuse for
extending the franchise for term OF
years. The matter may just as well
be left as it is. The company has its
plant here and it will be glad to fur
nish water to private users and the
city, and would not be able to collect
a higher rate than it has under the
old contract. There is nothing TO be
gained by extending the franchise
unless some advantage over the pres
ent condition can be secured. The
Town in few years will be IN a con
dition that may make it profitable to
operate its own water plant, and it it
does not want to do that, there may
be some one who would be willing to
pay for a franchise. 1t is also posi-
BILE that there may be legislation en-
acted which will make franchise OF
this kind source of revenue to the
city which grants it. We are getting
water at present, and the company is
getting pay for its service. 1t would
seem to the writer that the people
have very little cause to get excited
over the question at all. The mem
bers Of the city council are pretly
good men. If the people CT the town
request t. em to make no new CON
tract, it would not seem probable that
they would arbitrarily insist On ez-
tending The franchise merely because
it is requested by the corporation
which owns it. II nothing can be
gained in the way Of rates by new
contract, the natural thing will be for
the people to ask the council TO re
fuse any extension of the franchise.
It can hardly be charged that this
would be an injustice to the company
or to any one. II the committees that
are working upon the matter now can
prepare scale Of rates that will be
an advantage over the ones in force
at present, and the company is willing
to offer such inducement as would
warrant giving an extension OF the
franchise, then there might be some
thing to be gained by entering into Q
new contract. By the old contrac
there was nothing whatever to make
anything binding upon the company
The city had no hold upon the com
paIy that it would not have had il th'
contract had not been in existence
