pany should not be restrained from
transferring his license. and Vice.
Chancellor Emery has made the rule

gust 5 ex. Papera says he executed
papers giving the defendant company
power of attorney to secure the pay
ment of the license fee of $500, and
this was paid when the license was
granted, he paying the company $344
on account. A~fterward, he adds, he
rendered the balance Of $3.50 to the CON-
pany. which was refused, and on June

Two attempts-one of. them success

ABILITY TO READ
HIS WATER METER
SAVES OVER $40
Charles j. Watson Prevents
Officials from Overcharg.
ing Him.

Water department officials are much
perturbed over the suggestion made in
the STAR yesterday that users of
metered water read their meters, II they
wish to avoid being overcharged sew
eral hundred per cent. That such
things happen was shown in the fac
smile of two bills paid by Mrs. c. A.
Martin, of 220 South Seventh street. for
water used in a house located at So
Ferry street.
AS told yesterday, Mrs. Martin was
Obliged to pay for the November quar-
ter. 1909, a bill of $29.69, based on an
average daily consumption of 226 cubic
feet, instead of an average of 3S cubic
feet, which the meters in use before and
since that period show to be the correct
average.
The meter in question has since been
removed, and there is no record as to
whether ii was "out of order" or incor-
rectly read by the inspector of that dis
trict.
The particular objection of the water
department officials to the expose OF the
erratic action Of the meters Is that 1t
will cause nearly every user OF a meter
to imagine he has a grievance and flood
the STAR office with complaints.
Mistakes "seldom" Occur.
II Is very seldom, according to Chief
Engineer Norris R Sherrerd and Cash
Ter Northrup, that mistakes occur. and
thew are always rectifed. That Is not
true. however. so far as the Martin bill
Is concerned.
Neither is It true that very few mis-
takes occur. The mistakes are numer-
Gus. as may b. demonstrated any time
by an inspection Of the cards covering
the records of the moro than 22,ooO
meters in use.
Complaints are of daily occurrence
and will be more frequent, h water
department officials fear, as soon as
,se-owne realize how simple 1t 10
tn keep a record of their meters to
compare with that made by the IN
spectors.
Chief Inspector Wolf says he person.
alIy. examines every card as returned
by the district inspectors, n has all
anparent plumbers corrected before the
bills are issued. A small discrepancy,
he says, might pass unnoticed- but II
complaint were made by the consumer
It would be rectihed after an investiga-
tion.
What a penal discrepancy" in the
Judgment of the board officials. may
mean is somewhat uncertain. 1t may
mean $1,000 cubic feet as in the Martin
case, which was not rectiied. or 10000
cubic feet as in the case OF Charles
J. Watson, which was rectifed because
Watson read his meter and compelled
the water department officials to admit
the error.
Rate Suddenly Jumped.
Mr.. Watson has occupied the prem
ises at IA Mechanic street for three
years, and his average monthly on
sumption Of water a been less than
1000 cubic feet, or about $500 cubic
feet each quarter. costing less than IS
for the period.
For the May quarter he was amazed
when presented with a bill for 1884,
showing an alleged consumption of 49,
900 cubic feet for the three months
ending April 4, 1910
Believing a blunder had been made
Watson looked UP his bills from March

started at zero. and found there had
been a mistake"
For the August quarter a bill was
rendered showing hat from March 8

c.. a total Of $500 gallons had been
used.
The November Figures.
Fol the November quarter the meter
read: October 4, 1909, 5000 cubic feet.
and July 1. 1909. $500 cubic feet, a con-
sumption of $500 cubic feet for the IS
days.
For the February quarter, covering
90 days. the consumption was the same.
n the meter read: october 4, 1909.
5000 cubic feet; January 4, 1910, 11,o00

Before entering a protest Watson
took a look at his meter, with the fol-
lowing result: The hand on the 100, 900
dial was on the figure one, on the
10000 dial on the figure five, and on
the 1000 dial at the figure six, which
indicated a total of $4,000 cubic feet.
That was one month after the Official
reading indicated a total Of 24,5oo. De-
Quoting 100 for the month which
elapsed from his own reading, Mr.. Wat
son concluded that a mistake of 10000,
which meant a loss to him of $11.25.

water department over the telephone.

ply that the bill was all right and that

but prepared a fac-simile of the state
Of his meter, submitted 1t to the water
department and demanded an i'm

The demand was compiled with, and
two inspectors were sent to the place
to convince Watson that he was wrong.
In this they failed. and instead Of

We led to these reflections by the bill which has

We heartily approve the BILL both humane and wise in

their dull intellect and training godly work and it
would repay the State hundred fold every dollar ex-

the practical way of enabling these unforunates to earn

EDITO RIAL
The Next Governor.

Judge William Hodges Mann who was chosen in
primary election as the nominee of the Democratic
party Tor Governor of Virginia and subsequently
rctted by vote of people, wifi take the oath of
office tomorrow, God willing, and become the
CHIEF executive officer OF this Commonwealth.
& The new Governor will enter office well qualified
aH equipped for its responsibilities He is Vir-
gilman by birth, education and training. This does
not make him better, necessarily than men born
and reared in other States. But il makes him better
qualified for this office. He has the Virginia in
stinct. Whatever that may be; he has the natural
affection Tor his mother State which birth and blood
ties alone give he mbued with the traditions
and customs of the State; he knows the history of
Virginia and has had distinguished part in making
it since he became He brings to the office
rich and valuable experience He as

lie comes as successful man OF affairs, with spen-
did executive abilities, and with the habit of doing
things He il mature, and yet neither his physical
nor his mental vigor is in any sense impaired.
Time has not sapped his strength, dimmed his
vision, or diminished his zeal. 1t has merely ma
tured his judgment, increased his knowledge and
given greater discretion his ardor better direction
to his efforts and keener sense OF duty and the
obligations of office.
We have no hesitancy in saying that Judge Mann
will take the Governors seat in the spirit of
Grafton, without selfish purpose or any ambition
ether than to give the State clean and useful ad-
ministraton-an administration that will make for
betterment in law, in morals and in material well
fare. Nor have we any fhestancy in making the
prediction that he will succeed
Tomorrow he will be Governor of Virginia OF
] the whole State and all the people. He has the
right therefore 10 expect the people to cooperate
with him in his desire and determination to protect
their interests, to promote their welfare and to
preserve the honor and dignity of the State.

The Retiring Governor.

Is Governor Swanson is known far and wide as the
Governor who does things. His administration
now drawing to close has been pre-eminently a
constructive administration. The Governor has
attended diligently TO the routine of his office he
has appeared in public as often as occasion required
he and his accomplished wife have been almost Law
ish in their hospitality, yet Governor Swanson has
been OF the most active men in the State in
development.
During his administration the interest in public
education has been greatly stimulated and the pub
lie school system extended and improved. The
Governor has never failed give aid and encourage
ment to all proper educational activities. He recr
commended increased appropriation for public
schools The high schools have increased from "a to
$50 New buildings have been constructed in ait
sections Ct the State aggregatng in cost s. 900
An agricultural and manual training school to
teach scientific farming has been created in every
congressional district; two normal schools train
female teachers have been organized, besides twenty
normal training departments in the high schools
and fourteen summer normals to train teachers for
the primary schools There has also been an in
crease in the teachers salaries.
A State dairy department has been created and
the Governor has interested himself in the preser-
walton of the forests of the State.
Under his administration the fruit industry has
been enlarged. Encourage ment has been given to
desirable immigration.
The State Board of Health has been reorganized
better equipped and made more efficient, and
special effort is making in that department to pre-
vent disease.
An epileptic colony has been provided for.
One OF the greatest works OF the Governor was in
the direction OF road improvement State High
way Department has been created and the State
has appropriated liberal sum to aid and encourage
road building in the various counties
The policy OF employing convicts has also been
successfully carried out. Nearly all the counties of
the State have awaited themselves of State aid and
something like 500 miles of new roads have been
constructed.
Governor Swanson had bout with the railroads
when the new rate regulation went into effect but
ne succeeded in eiiccting settlement between the
roads and the State Corporation Commission and
under his administration the railroads of Virginia
have prospercd Old lines have vastly improved
and one trunk line has been built from the
coal fields TO deep water
This is record OF which Governor Swanson may
well be proud But that is not the best OF it, His
entire administration has been free from every faint
above suspicion, and an inspiration to public and
private morals. He retires from office with the
respect, good will and best wishes of the Who'll
people.

little account of humor, notwithstanding that he
often did and said. unwittngfy, very funny things
It was his habit, as he assembled the bench to
preside over the police court, to hang his hat on a
gas jet. reporter who daily attended the sober
sessions of the finally noted in his report that
The Mayor walked in, hung his hat gas jet
and proceeded to business. Nobody saw anything
humorous in the statement and certainly not the
Mayor, but the following day and the day after
and each succeeding day the same statement was
made. that The Mayor walked IN, hung his hat on
the gas jet and proceeded to business" By and by
the thing became funny and the readers of the
paper fell into the habit of looking at the police
court record each day, to If the hat was still
keeping company with the gas jet In the course
OF time the whole city became convuised with mer-
riment, and except the Mayor. He became
annoyed, then indignant then exasperated and in
the end, he served notice the reporter that he
did not quit the foolishness he would be excluded
from the court.
This incident may not possess any interest for
the general reader, but there is valuable pointer
in it for the advertiser 1t is repetition, it is keep
ing at it day in and day out that impresses the
people and concentrates public attention.
