ARE DEMANDING

when the preteXt was given and
all other matters arranged the
shift took place and that the rail
roads now had the council with
! them until the finish.
The only way that the city coun-
Gil, after its remarkable flop on the
| question, can get out from under
is to provide for referendum vote
after the franchises are passed, in
which the railroads, as we'll as the
| people, must abide by the issue.
At the present time there is plan
on foot to permit referendum
vote which is binding on the rail
roads alone because of the alleged
technical disability of the refer
endum in the matter of the refer
ence of a railroad franchise to the
people. If the council is really sim
cere in its position and desires to
be free from the imputation of evil
motives. it will provide for ref
erendum vote in which the rail-
roads will by stipulation agree to
stand by the result. Practically
this concession had been talked
about by Mr.. Dudley, attorney for
| the Milwaukee, before the council
switched, and it is now up to the
council to see that Mr.. Dudley
gets his railroad in line to either
grant terminal rates or stand by
the acceptance or rejection of his
franchise by the people of Spo-
kane at a popular election.
THE MAYORS ATTITUDE.
Another peculiar phase of the
case is the statement coming from
a we'll authenticated source that
Mayor Pratt and the city council
have been lined up together on the
issue. This morning The Press. in
a written query to the mayor,
stated that the impression pre-
vailed that the council would not
put the railroad question before
the people in way that the rail
roads would bind themselves to
win or lose on the issue of ter
minal rates He was asked that II
in the event the council passed
a franchise that did not provide
for the submission of the question
in this way. if he would vote for it,
in view of the fact that he had
said that he believed the people
ought to be given a chance to eX-
press themselves. The mayor,
through his secretary, responded:
The mayor assumes that the
council will pass proper ordi-
nance. He has no comment to
make until the matter comes reg
ularly before him"
This talk may do the council
serious injustice, but it is up to the
city council to show that it is
false

SEATTLE JOYFUL OVER VICTORY
! WRUNG FROM STREET CAR CO.

Attorney General Bell ruled
against the county, declaring it had
forfeited its rights to the interest
by the seizure Of the cars. This
means a loss of $4,000 to the coun-
ty, but as there is now $4,000 in
the treasury which the treasurer
had very nearly given up all hopes
of collecting. the missing interest
money is not bothering either that
official or the public.
