FREE SERVICE PIPES.

Last fall the city ordered the owners
of property abutting on streets to be
paved to lay water service pipes from
the mains to the curb, where they are
not already in. The law requires this
where a permanent pavement is to be
laid. The property owners of York
street have petitioned the State Rail-
road Commission to require the city to
lay these pipes to the curb free of
cost to them. In decision last year
in like situation in GAINESVILLE the
commission ruled that all utilities,
whether privately or municipality own
ed must deliver the goods free at the
curb, and the petitioners invoke this
rule. What the city will do in regard
to the matter is not known. IL is said
that petition from another source in
the city for free meters will also come
up. The commission has gone on re-
corl several times to the effect that
"divided ownership of public utility
equipment must cease"
