CLAIM MADE TIA. HOME
ElAECTRlC co. HAS BEEN
WITHOUT A FRANCHISE

The city council wants to know
certain things which are going 10
cause all sorts OF complications 70
certain gentlemen who have decided
that the people will get per cent
rebate II their bills are paid before
the 10th OF the month instead of 10
per cent rs prevailed heretofore.
The alleged facts are these. Pre-
vious to the year 1905. the laws of
Greeley read that any franchise
granted to any company for opera
tion In this city must be voted upon
by the citizens OF Greeley.
In February or March of that year.
the Home Gas 4 Electric company
took out their franchise which was
never voted upon by the city A few
months subsequent to this an ordi-
nance was p, ssed whereby the city
council might grant a franchise with
out submitting 1t to the popular vote.
II is said that a popular vote was
never taken on the Home franchise.
Not only does 1t appear that the
Home Gas 4 Electric company has
been operating without franchise
but that moreover the Greeley Pow
er 4 Light company which preceded
the Home company and which OBJ
tanned its power from the Northern
Colorado Power company likewise
operated without franchise say
some OF the councilmen.
AS things now stand the situation
is this: The Home company is stand
ing on the verge OF having their IL
cense revoked and at the same time
the street railroad company is pc
titioning for franchise. One of The
stipulations to be placed, among 9TH
er rigid orders, will be that the new
company can charge a maximum rate
of = cents per kwt.. which is the
lowest rate, so it is said, which the
Home company has ever charged.
1t is stated on excellent authority
that the Home company is about to
raise the rate to 10 cents.
The council has learned much
through its experience with the Home
company and evidently purposes to
see that the citizens of Greeley are
safe guarded as they properly should
be.
A communication was read from
the Northern Colorado Railroad com
pany asking why the council had ig-
nored the letter OF that company ask
ing that the usual one-half tax re-
bate be granted to them. City Clerk
william Hotchkiss explained to the
council that the first communication
had been received too late for con-
sideration. and the second commun-
ication of last night was the result
Alderman Luther stated that he
was of the opinion that the county
commissioners had refused to grant
the company one-half off on their
county tax because of the fact that
the company's lands had fallen into
the hands of private individuals who
are alleged to he converting these
lands into personal uses, and it is
stated. moreover, that that purpose
to which the lands were originally
intended. namely their holding until
they could be turned over to some
legitimate railway. has not been COM
piled with and that hence they should
be shown no more favor than any
other corporation. Ii was in conse-
quence that the council refused 10
allow the half rate of tax to the com
pany.
The ordinance regarding the hp-
iropriations for the coming year was
placed upon its final passage ana

About Eggs.

In hens egg only one-fifth Of the
substance is nutritious, one-ninth part
Is refuse, and the remainder, the great
er portion, is water.

good as yellow ones, for they contain
trlfie more water and little less fat,

fee.
Judged by the amount of nutriment,
a goose's egg is the most valuable.
Next in order are ducks, guinea fowls,
hens, turkeys and plovers'. Eggs con-
tain large quantity q sulphur, which
Is purifying to the blood and good for
the complexion. !.
To get the best egg you must feed
your fowl OH grain. and to cook 1t In
the most dlgestlble way you must not
boil the water. Heat the water to 1870
degrees and leave the egg in 1t for ten
minutes. You will then digest every
morsel. But If you boil it for three
minutes no less than one-twelfth Of 1t
will fail to be digested. Thus If you
eat two eggs boiled for three minutes
every day You waste five .dozen in a
year.-London Mail.
