street. do not think this is neces-
sary, however, as I have plan which
I think would be satisfactory and
could work no hardship at all.
wanted to see Mr.. Snapp yesterday
and suggest it to him, but had no
opportunity to see him. My plan is
this: Let each owner of property
| facing Columbia street give fifteen or
twenty feet on the rear of their lots
so as to allow of the sidetrack run
ming down next to the alley. This
| is where the sidetrack belongs. The
sidetrack would thus serve the peo-
pie of Wenatchee avenue and also
make it possible to make a ware
house district of Columbia street.
Running the track on Columbia
street would make it impossible to
have any fruit warehouses on this
side of the track because, teams
could not get in over the tracks and
cars, but placing the track in the
alley, the loading and unloading
from the teams could be done on
Columbia street, while the cars could
be loaded and unloaded in the al
ley This way no property interests
are damaged. l own property on west
side of Columbia street and I am
willing to donate land in the alley
for this purpose. 1 believe that it
will be good thing for the town to
have more sidetrack facilities, but
naturally man will fight to protect
his own interests. We property own
ers would like to get together and
talk the matter over with Mr.. Snapp,
and 1 believe that we could agree on
something that would be equitable
to all of us.
DR.. Saunders stated to World re-
porter that he was in favor Of the
franchise provided that it contained
a common carrier clause, allowing
any other railroad to use the track
for switching purposes and that it
be liable for all damages.
Arthur Gum says: "This fran
chise will be advantageous to the
property owners whose property
fronts on it, provided it is safeguard
ed by two restrictions:
First. That cars shall be moved
on this track only between the hours
of 10 p. m. and a. m, so that the
street traffic will not be disturbed
during business hours.
Second, that there shall be joint
user clause in the franchise, so that
any other railway or electric railway
coming to the city later can have
access to the warehouses on the line
upon payment of a just proportion
of the cost of laying and maintain
ing the track.
"The language of the franchise
should also be closely scrutinized so
that the city shall only convey
franchise and not a fee in the street. ,"

MORE ABOUT ELECTRICAL
 PLUNDERBUND
(Hartford Courant.)


 Nothing has broken loose at the State House this session that has caus- ed more indignant talk than the at tempt to copper-fasten the anti-neigh- Dor law regarding electricity. The olistS in undertaking to tighten their grip revealed to an astonished State the grip they had already secured. It is repugnant to all sense of fairness that two adjacent property-holderS should be allowed to cooperate in heating, in lighting by gas, and in de- velcHing power. by steam1 and yet be forbidden to unite in developing cleo tricity. Indeed, they are permitted to only when one sells to the other that the prohibition stands. Still further 1t is repugnant to the sense of fair play to pass a law of this restrictive and unjust quality and make it apply only to twelve places in the State There are 156 towns where electricity may be sold in this fashion, and twelve where it cannot. Possibly conscious Of the humor of his predicament, one clared the other day that this meas ure was for the protection of com munitieS and to save them from the perilS of electricity. That's good since 1t leaves 156 towns still subject to these dreadful perils and only saves the chosen people of twelve towns. Is that fair play? Is nobody sorry for the unfortunates in 156 towns who are all lowed to trifle with life and property and to sell electricity to neighbors? :? Who is going to protect them? It is all right to limit electric lighting and electric power development to one com pany in a town, but there is no excuse

NO FAMILY MAN
 WAS MIR. MORGAN
Wife. of Newtown Man Who Seeks Divorce Relates Story of Husbands Alleged DeSertiOns.

No family man was Merwin D. Mor- gan of Newtown according to the tes- timony of his wife, Amelia Morgan, of Providence, R. L. whom he is suing for divorce, charging that she deserted him. Questioned by her counsel, City Attorney Thomas M. Cullinan, Mrs. Morgan said that she married Morgan in Reading, Pa, in 1881. They went to Boston and the husband obtained employment as a jewelry salesman. A charge of embezzlement was made,and that was the end of Morgan for two years, so far as the witness was con cerned.
 from him, inviting her to Dodge City, Kan. There, she said, he was arrested for violating the liquor law. While he was in jail the witness earned her own living, in Denver. Morgan subse- quently came to Denver, where they lived together for three weeks. It was five years before she heard from him again. Another letter, and she re- joined him in Salt Lake City, Utah, from whence they went to Solida, Col, months. She recovered to find the much absent husband once, more ab- sent so far as she was concerned.
 Again in Denver, Morgan resumed ness. He stayed in Denver long enough to be convicted on 8 land fraud charge and after his release remained with the witness for three hours only. And so he came and went until 1889.
 It was not until 1904 that the wit ness learned her husband was living in Hattertown, the little village in Newtown- She went there to chide him, she said, for living with another woman, but never, she declared, was there a reconciliation. Once she had brought an action for non-support, but dropped it because Morgan was in poor

 Caracas, Venezuela, May 4.-After a thorough investigation of the report that the crew of the Carrie D.
