ed to organize state geographical
society Even the historic Snake

The geographers declare that many
of the geographical names now in
use in Idaho are highly inappropri-
ate, being suggestive of sensational
ism and yellow novels, and thereby
give strangers n mistaken idea of the
state. A change in the Objectionable

UTILITIES ORDINANCE
HAS SLIGHT DEFECT
Commission Suggests that Council
Remedy Trouble in Regard to
Time for Making Report

The practical working of the public
utilities ordinance adopted by the peo-
pie at the last general election is prov
ing the ordinance deficient in the time
limit fixed for reports of the public
utilities commission, but this can easily
be remedied if the council adopts the
suggestion the utilities commission
made yesterday.
The ordinance gives the commission
ten days in which to report on appli-
cations for franchises, or such further
time as may be granted by the council
The commission suggests that in fu-
ture, when franchises are referred for
consideration, the council then allow
thirty days time for the commission
to make it's investigation.
Because of this limited time the COM
mission had to ask time extensions yes
terday on several franchises that have
been referred to it. 1t declared that it
considered the policy of selling fran
chises for $100, irrespective of their
value, that had been followed by pre-
vious councils, as ill advised, and the
council thought so too.
This commission was given more
work to do and thirty days i'll which to
do it when the ordinance granting rail-
way franchises on Alpine, between
Buena Vista and San Fernando, and on
Melrose, from Heliotrope drive to Nor
mandie avenue, which had been vetoed
by the mayor, were referred to it for
further investigation.
