DAY ELECTRIC SERVICE.

Electrically controlled and oper-
ate't railroad switches are talked
OF for this city. The Southern
Pacific Company has 50 many
switches and branch lines entering
this place that 1t is probable that
1t will erect tower from which
all of the switches may be con.
trolled by electricity. The matter
has been mentioned by officials OF
the railroad to the officials Of the
city lighting plant, enquiring Of
the possibilities Of getting the ne.
cessary power from the city cleo
trio lines. 1t is probable that the
matter will be brought officially
before the Electric Light Commits
siOners at an early date for consid-
GRAFTON as to rates for such a serv
ice.
When the new Corlis engine
will have been installed there will
be no question about the plants
facilities for taking care of any
such needs other than the fact
that 1t will require a full "a hour
service. Our business houses are
already demanding such a service.
II established it will probably lead
to the supply the lower for many
small motors where needed for va
rious purposes. The day service,
in all probability, will be the next
step forward in the development
Of the city plant.

KING WILL UPHOLD
COMMONS IN FIGHT
Speech to Open Parliament and
Assert Supremacy of the
House in Finances

LONDON, Feb. 20.-Premier Asquith
has filled vacancies in the ministry.
which is an indication that he expects
the government to pass safely through
the crisis.
The new ministers are:
William Wedgewood Benn and Ernest
Joseph Soares, junior lords of the treas
ury; Edwin Samuel Montague. under
secretary for India, and Cecil William
Norton, assistanN postmaster general
Norton succeeds Sir Henry Norman, who
was defeated at the election.
This completes the ministry. In the
case of the junior lords elections
are necessary. but as both had good
majorities last month there is little
danger of their losing their seats.
KING WILL BE FIRM
Parliament will be formally opened at
2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon by the
king, who will be accompanied by the
queen. the prince and princess of Wales
and Prince and Princess Henry of Prus-
STA.
The kings speech. it is believed be-
yond the usual references to foreign
matters, will be confined to finance and
the relations between the two houses.
The supremacy of the house of commons
in financial matters will be asserted
firmly, but the governments plan for
limiting the lords veto Will not be dis
closed, until the premier addresses the
house on the address in reply to the
kings speech
