SOMEWHAT SENSATIONAL.

The murder of George Hanson has
been revived by the publication oil a
report connecting with the crime an
individual who was Il guard at the
penitentiary camp.
The information at hand was re-
ceived by Sheriff Flournoy a few
days since, and while it was intend
ed to keep the matter private, there
has been a leak from which there
has developed sensation.
1t is possible that the publication
of the report may have been as a
warning to the individuals who may
have been implicated in this crime
directly and indirectly.

TIE R0ND ISSUE.

There could not be presented a
clearer proposition than is involved
in the issue of $4,000 OF bonds
with which to construct and operate
a municipal electric light plant.
Tt may be conceded that the mind
of some individuals has been warped
BY statements which, if not deliber-
ately untrue, have been effective IN
leading to hesitation, but FORUM
ately these appear to be in the NIL
nority.
II would be disereditable to be-
lieve that any great number have
been misled by the sophistry against
municipal electric lighting.
Every taxpayer should reach a
conclusion from practical reasoning
II this view of the issue is to be the
guide, the taxpayer must conclude
that the proper way to settle the IS
sue now pending is to vote in favor
of the issue Of bonds for a munich
pal electric light, plant.
In voting for this issue of bonds
the electric light question will be
settled and settled right. In taking
this position the Caucasian is guided
by what it firmly believes is for the
good of the city and all of the peo-
pie.
Possibly if we had some moneyed
interest Unveiled we would be the
opponents of the municipal electric
light plant. It is NEITHER singular
nor strange that the electric lights
interests are combating so deter
minedly the proposed municipal
electric light plant. There is a rea-
SON and the reason is that munich
pal light plant operated by the city
for the benefit of all the people will
Interfere materially in their large
profits which they derive in the
monopoly of light.
There is no issue, to our mind
which is clearer than the import
ance and the necessity OF the city
becoming possessed of its own light
ing plant, and now is the time to Sc
cure it.
II taxpayer has no moneyed in
ierest in the lighting company and
its great profits. why should he play
directly in the hands of this interest,"
by voting against the issue of bonds
for municipal electric light plant
PROFESSIONALLY his duty to him.
self and his city and his people is to
do the opposite OF what the lighting
company would have him dc, and
that duty is that he should vote for
the bond issue, by doing which the
lighting question will be settled, and
we repeat, will be settled right and
for the good of all the people.

A Tax on Tips.

Vienna has many customs peculiar
to itself. and among them is the pleas
ing one of tipping the tramway con-
ductors. The tax on the passenger Is
not heavy one-2 hellers, one-tfth
of a penny, is sufficient to elicit the
grateful acknowledgment Of the OIL
cial who collects the fares. Vienna
also enjoys a progressive income tax
system, whose net is cast so wide as
to include the wages earned bv such
comparatively insignificant workers as
tramway conductors, although these
can scarcely amount to II a week. 1t
suddenly occurred to the income tax
officials that the tramway conductors
were not paying any tax on the ups
they gathered in. An order has now
been Issued that hereafter the con-
ductors shall pay crowns (3s. Adj a
