0ONCE Lincoln said" What words of
~ weight are treasured
And linked forever with his dca,hless name
Words tender. true, that by no scale are measured
Whose worth all future ages shall acclaimI
And Lincoln deeds how wondrousy recorded.
Beyond the skill Of monumental arisl
Let others be to temple shrines accorded,
While his are craven on our loving hearts.
HNNCE Lincoln said" How many merry
BY words like these are hera!ded each dayl
Though great his worth. though unsurpassed his
glory.
This is the homage we most freely pay.
His courage-to historians we leave it:
lis known to every boundary Of the earth.
His wisdom-without question we believe it.
But cherish most his SIMPLE. kindly mirth.
0ONCE Lincoln said" No trumpe, note
~ can still US
With power so sure simple tale to hear;
No other name has such spell to thnl US
o. such charm to hold the listening ear.
So shall II be IN all the ages alter
The world itself shall feeble grow and old.
Be out oi tune with wisdom. truth and laughter
Ere the last Lincoln story has been Told.

That President Taft has grown in

METER RATES IN NEW FRAN.
tHISE

Dear Expecting to become 4
resident OF your city soon | am
naturally interested in the new wat
tr franchise
Being somewhat familiar with
water rates and rules in many other
places in the state and IN compar-
ms your Rev franchise rates with
those OF other places where the
Mater is furnished by Il private conf
.'any | wish 20 note that in Section
30 Of the franchise a minimum rate
liNed at SIP per annunr, which Is
ABOUT twice what it should be. So
10 $6. is the usual minimum charge
and is held to be fair to all parties.
Also, The company charges % per
month meter rent where consumer
huNs and lnstalls his own meter. II,
'Ae consumer buys his own meter
!here should be no meier lent, eX-
N"pt, that the consumer would nav
for repairs when needed
Where the company pays for the
;Aeter, the usual monthly rent is &c
Sc, or SOC per quarter for IS
l"etr" instead OF 2Jc per month.
My observation and personal ci-
= rience cCitvinCCj nc ti:;i G meter
"..r Is the only One fair to both the
,Vuhl"Hy and the consumer and
should be everywhere adopted for
I've sale OF water.
The meter rate Fer thousand, as
fixed in the franchise is ,,ot had lu.
mere the company is allowed to
FIX q minimum charge that is double
what it should be, then the rate per
thousand does not amount 10 any
tHing and the incentive to keep wat
6" fixtures in good repair and pre-
vent waste is lost on the consumer.
Fair Pay.
