The Mountain States Telephone and
Telegraph company and the city
council in Douglas are due for con
ference this evening over the matter
Of franchise giving the company the
right to occupy and use the streets
UI that city in the operation OF their
system
The Mountain States company Dur-
chased the telephone system in Doug

that il had franchise, bat il seems
that this is not the case
No Franchise REVEALED

The company is now in the midst
OF the Encouragement OF their entire
system in Douglas, spending upwards
OF twenty thousand dolalrs in The

company had no franchise. and | tCld
him that it was possible the Douglas
Improvement company might have aC,
quired vested rights by reason OF be
ing on the ground and operating at
the time the city was incorporated
but in my opinion if they had any
rights in that way those rights woald
not extend TO the privilege Of digging

BRyAwS FORECAST OF
DEMDCRATIC CONVENTION
(From The Commoner.)

The course of the democratic con-
vention will be largely shaped by
the action of the republican con-
vention. The democratic platform
will set forth the democratic side of
he issues presented at Chicago
For instance, if President Taft is re-
nominated a considerable portion OF
the platform will be devoted to
pointing out and emphasizing the
difference between the president
and congress on the tariff question.
His administration will be con-
demned for its sins of omission
and commission and an appeal will
be made to progressives to join in
administering a fitting rebuke to the
administration.
If, on the other hand Mr., Roose-
welt is nominated, the paramount
issue will be the third term-shall
the tradition of the nations be over
turned? Shall we embark on the
road to a dictatorship Shall we
intrust the power and patronage OF
the presidency in the hands OF a
man who might use it to keep him
self in power for lifeS
In the selection of a candidate,
also, our convention cannot escape
from the influence that will be eX-
erted by the republican nomination,
The democratic nominee will be a
progressiye-that is already settled,
No reactionary could be nominated
now, even if the republican situa-
ton did not forbid such action on
our part. Mr. Clark and Mr. Will
son, both progressives, will have, to-
gether, more than a maiority-pos-
sibly two thirds--of the convention
While a few reaCtionaries may be
included among the delegates the
number can not be great enough to
give any hope to those democrats
who are hostile to progressive
ideas.
Governor Harmon will have all OF
his own state, Ohio having adopted
the unit rule, but to carry his state
by 1000 majority out Of 100000
votes cast, and receive less than
one-lourth Of the vote he received
when he was elected governor, dives
him no stand in a national conyen'
ton, The prOGres8yes elected iE
district delegates in 0hio--morC
than twice as many delegates a.
Mr. Harmon received In all tn,
states outside Of Ohio
Mr., Underwood the other reac
tionory candidate did not allow hi
name to 60 before the people in A
of the iS states, and he carried onl,
four of the states In which he wa
a eandidate-his own. and thre
that bordered on it, In the thre
neiRhboring states he had a spirite,
contest and the majority was no
large enough to emphasize hi
claims
If these two men, selected from
among the reacllonarIes as the I've
most populer Of the men h0ldinj
their views, have made 50 poor
showing, what dark horse Of the re-.
dictionary type would have q ohance
