COMMISSION DEFEATED.

Taylorville, Ill.-Commission form of
government was defeated here by a
live in the vitiated atmosphere of the
cities where the air is nearly always
super-saturated on account of the lack
of vegetation to absorb moisture and
bad drainage.
"The only reason why we do not all
live in parks is because our minds do
mot meet Every economic and physi-
will require about ten thousand acres
of land, of which about four thousand
will be devoted to apples.
"Our entire park and street cleaning
department, Including maintenance OF
the canalization, will be easily main
tanned by the income from the politi-
cal sanitation or park department.
Before these plans can be carried
out, trunk line travel ways must be
established. Broad streets or radial
highways, the cities arteries, cannot
be disassociated from the problem of
housing.
'These. will facilitate the daily ebb
and flow of traffic and increase the
area available for home building.
Facility of communication is the
very basis for the existence of city.
And it's success is more dependent on
it's means of circulation than any other
physical factor under Its CONTROL
ct is calculated to build these park
ways $50 feet wide, and these will con-
stitute the trunk lines for travel and
connect the various neighborhood cen
tiers of the city.
For Gymnasiums.
"These centers, it is expected, will
provide space for kindergartens, gym
ings, postoffice and offices for all pub
nasiums, auditoriums for local gather
lie service. Thus they become bust
ness, recreation and social centers.
Storage tracks for cars may also be
provided here so that all brick, coal
and other heavy traffic may be moved
at night after being loaded during the
day time"
The new system should be taken in
to account in the laying out of new ad-
ditions to the city.
Mr.. Whitnall also outlined plans for
placing model homes within the reach
of the people, providing for payments
in such manner that all may be able
to benefit by them.

similar lines, are free from taxes and

[. q N. Pleased With The
Telephone Method OF Dis
1a4cbino lie Trains

The Louisville and Nashville Railroad
which about year ago equipped its
main line from Cincinnati, Ohio, TO Nor
ton, Virginia, with telephone apparatus
for handling its train dispatching, has
found-this method so satisfactory that
it recently ordered OF the Western Elec-
trio Company forty-two additional tele-
phone selector equipments to be install
ed on new copper line being built
from Lexington to Quicksand, Ky.
A telephone selector equipment makes
il possible for the train dispatcher locat.
ed at headquarters. in this case at Lex
ington. to signal any of the way stations
without calling the others. When the
dispatcher at Lexington wishes to con
verse with the operator at Richmond
the selector makes it possible for him
10 ring the telephone bell OF the operator
At Richmond without signalling any oil
the other operators along the line.
The new line will cover total dis
lance Of ninety six miles, and twenty
one stations will be equipped TO handle
the train movements. A message cir
cult 10 handle other railroad business
| also equipped with twenty-one stations
viii parallel this train circuit.
This is another instance where a raj
road has found that the telephone is a
ea,oient and reliable means Of handlin
! is varions communications.

Remarkable Record.

We venture the assertion that our
City Collector, T. c, O'Neil, has made a
record as a tax collector that will not be
eclipsed by any similar official in Ken
lucky. The city taxes for the year 1911
amounted TO s4l. 96l.77. and Of this
amount Collector O'Neil has turned over
to the treasury $50, 56l.37, leaving a bal
ance of unpaid taxes due the. city. and
on which the penalty of ten per cent.
was added on November of only $500.
When Mr.. O'Neil was elected collector
eight years ago, the city collected about
s27, 600 taxes per year, and during his
administration he has taken great pride
in the increase of taxable property in

Judgment Reversed.

says: Compensatory and not punitive
damages may be given passengers put
off a railroad train if damages are
proved. The Court Of Appeals today 50
construed the law in the case of the
Cincinnati, New Orleans and Texas Pa
cific Railroad Company against F. B.
Carson and NJ. B. Carson, who were
put off the train near somerset be-
cause their tickets to Moreland had
expired. They had received Judge
ments each of 800. The tickets were
bought at Morelaad to Somerset and re-
turn on Aug. 80, 1910. and were good
until Sept. 3. The conductor refused to
accept the tickets, claiming they had
expired on Sept. 3, and the men were
put off the train. The judgement Of
the Lincoln Circuit Court was reversed.
