in protection of its constituents.
Publicity Was Urged
The committee said that such mat
tiers should be given publicity and al
low the public to consider the advisa-
bility of such grants, before they were
officially acted upon.
1t was explained to the committee
that the law is very lame in this re-
lication OF proposed franchises and al
SO allows the county's officials to give
away privileges in one consideration.
Mr.. Jessup spoke in defense of the
commissioners, stating that they were
all farmers, and had no training in
the matter Of transacting such matters
OF public business. Furthermore the
laws do not require unusual qualifica-
tions, inasmuch as the salary of $500
year is all that is paid the commits
sioners.
The county commissioners were
asked for their personal opinions of
their action this morning All were
very much surprised and not a little
discouraged because their motives
have been impugned. They said in
defense that. when they passed upon
the franchise Wednesday, the one
granted last spring was compared with
it. The two seemed identical, so far
as the essential points are concerned
The commissioners said that after
they had ascertained this, and know
ing that no complaint had been made
about the granting of franchise to
Mr.. Ashe, permitting him to use the
highways in Boston and Arlington
townships, between here and Liberty.
they thought this franchise would meet

Geneva, May IA waterway through
the heart of Europe joining the North

land and France will be accomplished
fact within the next few years.
The Paris municipality has given the
first impetus to the international
scheme by deciding to open naviga-
tion on the Rhone between Geneva
and Marseilles, and has decided to
construct barrage and a parallel can
al to the Rhone from Genissiat, an
hours journey by train from Geneva.
The work will be comenced this sum-
mer and completed in 1912.
The Swiss association for navipa-
tion from the Rhone to the Rhine has
pledged itself to prolong the river
route from Geneva to Basic via the
lakes of Neuchatel. Morat. and Bienne
and the River Aar, which flows into
the Rhine. The North Sea is already
connected with Basic by the Rhine
highway.
1t would cost little to construct q
few short canals and deepen the river
beds in Switzerland. and this would
have been done long ago but on ac-
count of the opposition Of the railway
companies in France, Switzerland and
Germany. This opposition has now
been counteracted. and in the near fu-
ture motor boat or q steam Yacht will
be able to steam through the heart Of
Europe.
