which your agitation brings to the business, and then to be prepared for the worst, should this unholy alliance succeed in their fanatical and greedy designs.
 You find in all towns a few men in long black coats who arrogate to themselves the sole privilege to pre- side over the appetites, tastes and recreations of the community. These black coated gentlemen will say you shall not drink anything that comes under their displeasure Have they not just as much right to say that l must eat pork instead of beef? or to say that I must drink pink lemonade instead of beer
 Now, will one of these gentlemen kindly inform me what new dispen- sation of divine or moral law has given them this right2 Will they tell us when this dispensation was given, and did it bear the stamp of divinity? Will they tell us when the church becam me the autocrat of the fountain? c

Two Men Were Killed

Conductor F. w. Robeson and Fireman F. M. Rowe were killed, Engineer C. E. Magee was fatally scalded and Brakeman A. D. Nc Lennan had his foot crushed in a freight wreck near Lugo station, on the north slope of Cajon Pass in California Saturday. Ten cars were smashed into kindling wood.
 The wreck was caused by the dragging of a brake beam under the. engine catching switch and splitting it, and pillng up ten cars of fruit and putting the engine in the ditch.
 The line was blocked for twenty four hours. All the overland trains were held at San Bernardino and Barstow.

THE LETTERS NEED
 NO EXPLANATION
Concluded from Page II

also all arrearages for water may be required to be first paid by said customer in arrears.
 Action will be commenced in the district court for the recovery of the amount due the company, unless prompt settlement be made.
 Complaint has beeen made of a few slight leaks in the mains, caus- ing one or two muddy places in the streets; also that a street crossing has been taken up and not proper ly replaced. The Company recog- nizes that these complaints are just, although unimportant, and they would have been remedied long ago except for the attitude of the Coun- cil. which has unreasonably and unjustly deprived the company of it's revenue that, together with it's heavy outlays in installing an adequate water system in town, it has found difficulty in meeting the expenditures these matters require. Complaint has also been made that the water was shut off from the hydrants when a fire broke out- recently, and that there was some delay in turning it in, as a result of which two small houses were burned. Our investigation shows that the delay, if any. was only momentary, that the shut off was necessary, as it is often necessary to take the pressure from pipes in any system of water works. Further more, if the town had provided the sim plest kind of fire alarm, the water could and would have been turned in at the plant, the moment the alarm was given, as there is always a man there.
 All these matters complair,ed of, however, could have been adjust ed in few minutes, and can now if the council will present the charges in any comprehensive way. Thus far, however, we have been unable to get any definite idea of . the councils views, except that it simply refuses to pay our bills or any part of them.
 For some time we have been ar- ranging for the replacement of the present fourinch line with a six inch line. from about the Saginaw dam to point near the school house. This contemplated improve ment is wholly voluntary. as there is nothing in the franchise requir- ing it. But of course we cannot do it so long as the council persists in violating the franchise Ny with holding the money justly AnsAua. All these matters can be adjusted promptly whenever the council will give them a few minutes of business like consideratio ton. Yours very truly,

CHICAGO, Sept. 2.-Although the
lis OF deaths and accidents due 10 the
celebration of the Fourth of July Is
appalling. the sane" observation Of
the day this year shows notable I'm
provement In this respect according
to statistics compiled by the Journal
of the American Medical Association,
made public here today
The decrease In accidents is most
marked In those sections where re-
strIcuye legislation has been put In
effect, says the Journal. The sum-
mary shows.
Two thousand nine hundred and

tanuS; 19 were killed outright by
firearms; II by explosion of powder
bombs or torpedoes; by cannonS or
similar contrlvances, while 26. most
ly little girls, were burned to death
by fire from fireworks.
Startling as Is this showing, il is
the best since 1908, when the Jour.
nal began keeping itS record In 1903
4.449 persons were injured. of whom
466 lost their lives, 100 OF them dy-
ing from tetanus. The grand total
for eight years shows that 81 526 per
sons have been injured in Indepen.

1,663 died, 694 as the direct result Of
their injuries. and 9S6 from tetanus
following injuries One hundred and
