WESTERLY MAY
TEST ENDLESS
FRANCHISE LAW

Apparently the first test OF the legality
OF a so-called perpetual franchise will
be made in the town OF Westerly within
few days. IL the trouble between the
town and the Pawcatuck Valley Street
Railroad company is not settled
When widening the stretch OF road be-
tween Watch Hill and Westerly. the
town invited the Pawcatuck Valley Street
Railroad company TO contribute s2700 to-
ward the project. the company forward
ed q check for 5000 for the purpose.
Trouble ensued over the form of a re-
ceipt which the town council offered. BY
accepting this receipt, it Ia claimed, the
road would forfeit It's rights 10 perpetual
franchise under chapter $50 OF the Pub
lie Laws.
The town council has notified the road
that unless the company agrees to the
towns terms a stretch of a mile or more
OF its tracks between Watch Hill and
westerly will be torn UP, specifying to-
morrow at the day on which the work
OF taking up the tracks will begin.
The town claims that the railroad
conpanys charter gave IL the right to
put down rails only under the direction
OF the town council. The road claims
that the passage OF chapter $50 OF the
Public Laws amends all street railway
charters.
III the town starts TO tear UP the rails.
the road will take the matter to the
courts and endeavor TO get an injunction.
which will bring up Immediately the le-
gality OF a perpetual franchise.
The news-democrat. (Providence, R.I.) 1906-1909, 1907-05-14

tee and the text OF the agreement was
read by l.. 3. Hoffman.
II. II. Dunbar referred TO the giving
away OF streets for gas. electricity and
other necessities. claiming that the prices
OF the same are too high, and In the CIV
ing or the franchise TO a water company,
claimed that meters ought to be fur-
nished.
Ezra Dixon a member OF the water
committee, said:
LAUDED col. COLT.
I'VE have no George IA. Norman 20
deal with now The town is fortunate in
having Col Colt assume the responsible
ity for the water works. Before you
could spend one-quarter or the money
needed to put the water works I'm shape
the town would be practically bankrupt.
The minute Col Colt bought the water
works the towns litigation ceased.
James j. Walsh moved that the resolu-
ton be postponed two weeks, and l.. s.
Hoffman suggested that Col. Colt be sent
for to explain matters concerning the
contract. The motion TO adjourn was
lost and Col Colt soon appeared, ap-
plause greeting his entrance.
At the conclusion OF Col. Colts re-
marks the attempt 10 have action de-
ferred WAS again made. but Mr.. Hon.
man urged that the contract be accepted.
The motion to accept the. agreement
was finally carried. with many voting
against the proposition. and then the
Asylum road proposition was also adopt
ed.

families were story d-a-half dwellings,
and most OF tho occupants lost ali their

MINISTER BRAND
DEMANDS SUPPORT

Paris. May 14--When the chamber of
deputies reassembled yesterday. Minister
of Education BRAND replied TO further
interpells tions OF the government on the
latter's policy toward labors. He declared
that the minister had acted in the true
interests OF both the republic and the
working people in suppressing the vio-
lence and tyranny of the revolutionary
general confederation OF labor and ex-
pressed his determination. with the full
est approval OF his colleagues. not to per-
NIT any attempt at INSTRUMENTATION on
the part OF school teachers or other state
officials.
Continuing. NJ. BRAND said the govern
ment categorically refused to authorize
the school teachers and other state OIL
cials TO form the unions which the gener-
al federation OF labor desired in order to
provoke confusion and disorder through
the officials appealing TO the country over
the heads OF the cabinet ministers. The
government desired TO overcome anarchy
by means OF order and discipline, thus
avoiding certain reaction. he said. II the
chamber did not support the governments
disciplinary measures the ministers would
not retain their portfolios. he declared.
The debate was adjourned until tomor-
row, when the Government will ask for a

GREAT MISSION
FIELD 1T HOME,
Says DR.. FORBES

Al the meeting OF the Methodist minis
ters ion the Mathewson Street church yes
terday afternoon. DIR. Robert Forbes, first
assistant secretary OF the board OF home
missions and church extension OF the
Methodist church was the speaker.
II believe" he said. that we can do
just as much for the Chinese the Japan-
ese and the Africans by helping them in
this country as We can by sending people
10 them ACROSS the seas. We have no
right To send men out TO die IN malarial
Africa while we neglect the negroes here
There are 100000 OF them IN this country
and ", zoo, 600 whites. and IL 10 white people
In this country cannot take care OF one
negro what IN little fringe OF white
men and women going 20 do around the
outside OF the great African continent
when it's interior is full OF millions upon
millions of the rawest OF pagans?
why should be sen men there to
their death when we have unsolved prob
lens at home? II we work among the
blacks here and bring them TO the right,
they themselves Will some day attend
TO the work of showing the light 20 their
fellow men in the dark continent. What
the Africans need most today IS not
preaching, but people 10 teach them how
TO live. how TO cultivate the soil, and
