practically result in at least $4,000
being OH deposit with the gas COM
| eany which has announced that al
annual 5 per cent interest would be
paid on each S. deposit. He can see
no reason for the people Of this city
advancing any such loan to the nat
ural gas people. It will work hard
ship on the poor people, he says, and
incidentally will deprive many of them
of the comforts of natural gas, be-
cause there are no few who are not
in . position to advance SIS of their
lmoney to the natural gas company
| merely to insure the payment of a
.a5pIy bill. Mr.. Sorrells admits
that the company should be protecte.
from losses, but he also admits mat
the public is deserving of some con-
Loo citizens should suffer for a half
dozen who are irresponsible and who
might beat" the gas company. The
gas company has the right to turn Off
the gas after the first month, he says,
if the consumer does not pay, his bill.
There are no business concerns. ac-
cording to his argument, that do not
suffer some losses. He compares the
proposition to the recent service
pipe controversy that was finally TAX
en- to the Supreme Court at Little
Rock and Won by the City Attorney.
At Little Rock, according to Mr.. Sor-
rells, the Natural Gas Company Is
!paying for its franchise, while in this
city not one cent is being charged by
the city for the privilege.
The officials and attorneys of the
Natural Gas Company say that large
sum Of money has been invested by
the corporation to pipe gas into Pine
Bluff and other cities in this state.
They argue that the company cannot
afford to furnish gas to every person
in this or any other city without hav-
ing deposit as a guarantee that the
bills will be paid. The rule planned
| here is the same as is in force at Lit
tie Rock, Hope Hot Springs and other
cities where natural gas is used. The
Pine Bluff Corporation demands
cash deposit from non-property
owners when water connections are
made. In all of the larger cities, it is
claimed. the cash deposit is demanded
The money is not retained for good
but is returned to the consumer when
he diseontinues the gas service.
Ihe argument is advanced by the
natural gas people that dozens of ir-
responsible persons might demand thar
they be furnished natural Gas in their
MONIES and under the law they must
comply with the request in every in
stance. II these people are irrespon-
slele, they say. why should they not
rave some protection and he nerm;t-
TED to first ask for cash deposit.
ihey DO not want TO demand a cash
oeposst from responsible parties, prop
erty owners and business men and
would not III all probability do so. but
thes want some protection from loss
es IN dealing with persons who some
e.h'es make speciality of defrauding
i'aohe service corporations. If the
company is required under the law t.
furnish gas for fuel and Illumination
'heS say, why then should they not
nave the privilege of self protection.
l re tuel and Illuminating gas will be
much cheaper than paid by local con-
'sumers in the past. 1t will do awav

Hen-pecked husbands are consoling
themselves when they read in the
daily papers of Mrs. John L. Sullivan
doing the interview stunt for her hus-
band, former heavyweight champion
pugflist of the world. When newspa-
per reporters visited the Sullivan
home in Massachusetts to confirm the
rumor that John L. would be eandi-
date for Congress, Mrs. John L. po-
litely informed them that she was the
one to be interviewed. She said her
husband would not get in the con-
gressional race. And Judging from
the silence that has come over the
big fellow since, her decision was
final. Even the big men have to fin
ally bow to the mighty rule Of the
modern wife.
