Bisbee daily review., 1911-08-09

From statements made about town very frequently during the past few days it is apparent that many persons have a mistaken idea as to tbe nature of the franchise which the Bisbee Inn provement company recently purchas- ed and about the legality of which there is and has been considerable discussion. In order that the general public may understand exactly the na- ture of this franchise and understand better the question in regard to it which is now being considered by the city council we print it in full below. This franchise grants the right to maintain an electric light and power system in Bisbee and does not cover the operation of a gas plant. although some persons seem to have the idea that it covers both subjects. The iran ohise to erect and maintain a gas plant is ordinance 59, which was pass ed aud approved during the spring of 1905, while the electric franchise was passed by the council November. 1906. and approved by the people during the following December, and is ordin. snce i02 There is TO question as to the rights of the Bisbee Improvement company in the matter of the gas franchise being raised at this time, but only in regard Co the electric fran ohise. which follows:
 Ordinance No. 1O2.
 An ordinance granting the Intelna- tioual Gas anG Light company, a cor poratiOn eX'sting under the law5 ol the territory Of Arizona, their success- ors and ass.gns, a franchise to main tain an electric light and pow5, sys- tenn, build pole lines, conduits along and under the public streets. highways and alleys of the City of Bisbee, Ter ritory of Arizona.
 Section That the International Gas and Light company. a corporation existing under the laws Of the Terri tory of Arizona, its successors and as- signs. are hereby granted for the per tod of twenty-five t251 years from the taking effect of this ordinance, the right e way over, through. uuoE and Uncer the streets, sidewalks, alloys and public grounds Of the said City of Bisbee. for the purpose Of therein and thereon erecting, maintaining and us- 4AE ltl AtteaoGlg toiSr GL hogus HUH CT other suitable material, and the necessary wires and fixtures, success fully to operate, maintain and use Q system of electric lights and power within the said City of Bisbee; pro vided that such use Of grounds. streets, aneys and sidewalks be made with the least practicable inconvenience to the inhabitants Of the said city; that such excavations be guarded by barrieades whenever necessary and a light at night, and said sidewalks, streets. al leys, lanes and public grounds to be put by and at the expense of the grantee or assigns, in as good condi- ton as before, and with the least practicable delay. and shall save the city from any and all damage to per. sons or property. resulting by reason of said excavations.

CHAMP CLARK ON PRESIDENTIAL RACE

An enthusiastic supporter in South Carolina wrote to Champ Clark, speaker of the house. asking him if he were a candidate for the demo- cratic nomination for president
 The speaker gave what appears to us as the best reply made by any one of the prospective aspirants.
 The democrats gave me the
 most important office they had to give. Upon the performance of this house will depend whether we win or lose in the next election. Therefore the highest duty I can perform is to stay right here and do any thing in my power to make a record upon which we can
 win. I am not going to neglect
 that duty to go gallivanting around the country in pursuit of another office, and at the
 same time I am not going to decline a nomination that has not been rendered me"
 Some officeholders seem to think that the duties of enc office consist mainly in trying to get a better one; and some. after getting the other job insist OF holding both, and, perhaps. looking for still another at the same time.

 T told General Reyes I thought we should give to the world an ex- ample of a purely democratic cam. paign and that for my part, l would do all in my power to have the political rights of his adherents re- spected- At the same time I point. cd out how serious 8 matter it would be should arms be resoTted 10 to settle the question, and that tho government would proceed with all energy against those who at tempted to disturb the peace oi the country.
 Arms for Peace-Not War.
 General Reyes told me- that his past career as a soldier would re- move all suspicion from him. but that. nevertheless. he would give me his word of honor that he would never use such measures, and that. on the other hand. his sword would he at the service of the govern ment in the event any one shoule disturb the peace.

ister Of fuance, in your cabinet. General Reyes told me that, in vfr. tue Of the letter which I wrote him July 16. and which was pub lished yesterday he considers that he is free from all agreements and, therefore, needing the pleas of his rartisens. he had decided to accePt the candidacy for the presidency oC the republic, but that as a proof of his defercnce toward me. or account Of my courteous treatment of him, as he esteems it. he did net wish to act without 6i5t hold ing this conference.
 Reyes Not Compromised. T told him what I had said in my letter, that | did not consider that he was in any way compro- missed to me to announce or refrain from announcing his candidacy. in stead l should have considered such a thing unworthy of both of us. General Reyes told me that in an- nouncing his candidacy. his wish is to have it perfectly democratic and not only that, he wished that our friendly relations should under no circumstances be altered. indeed he believes that the defeated cand.- date, whoever he may be. should turn all his strength in the service of the new government. He added | that as an evidence of his good intentions he desired Ernesto Ma dero should appear on his ticket as a candidate for the vice presiden- cy ] appiauded the sentiments which guided General Reyes and ! pointed out that ! had always fol- lowed the same line of conduct and that, for my part, the newspapers { which are directly under my direc- ! ton should always observe the most courteous and dignifed course for the purpose of averting the terrible conflicts into which our na- ton falls whenever it holds polit- I icaI contests.
 Ernesto Madero Declines.
 General Reyes made a similar offer. In regard to the candidacy ' Of Ernesto Macero, he declined the honor which General Reyes offered him, and stated that, although he had a personal liking for Reyes, that he had no leaning toward poll ties and less than ever at the pres ent time when he wished only to serve the nation in an administra. i tive capacity.
 General Reyes explained to Eg.
 Eesto Madero that he had moi troached the subject before because
 he wished to speak of it first in T my presence and for that reason he
 had invited ETnesto to accompany
 him here

At the sound Of 1t, he drew himself
up, towering, before her. and, SO, be-
came visible to her-a monstrous,
blurred, uncertain shape.
And she cried out; this time in ter

upon her and kill her with his hands,
as his british instinct of rage urged
him to do, he started back suddenly,
and himself cried out!
For a faint circle of light, waving.

straight down upon both of them
through the fog-out of the sky itself.
Looking up, he saw overhead a
single, great luminous eye, and in the
reflection of Its own light upon the
ice, very family, the fabric of out
stretched wings.
Then from up there, overhead, he
heard a voice--a quiet voice, I'm

LAWYERS FEES IN GERMANY

is at the New Willard. A ~rechtsanwalt
Is an attorney at law and counselor
combined.
1.-THE German law fixes the exact
fees which a German attorney has to
claim for all kinds Of professional
work, and the r~echtsanwalt can charge
neither more nor less. These fees are
fixed whether the cases are criminal OF
come under the civil code. The amount
| depends exclusively on the value OF
the object of contention or the charac-
ter of the crime. 1t is an old, though
still unfulflled, wish Of German law
yers to have a new fixed list OF fees,
not made after the old low standard
of the year 1878, but with c%onsidera-
ton to the changes-numerous and de-
cided-which have taken place since
that year.
The r~echtsanwalt can never be q
business man, as may ne lawyer IN
the United States. The practice of the
law is not considered a calling or pro
f~ession. but is essentially q public Of
fee.
According to the code Of 1878, a
lawyer is charged with certain public
duties. He is obliged to have his resi-
dence in the town or district whence
appointed. Further. he must conduct
himself in and out of office in /. man
