The people have begun to rebel
against the eyer-increasing tax bur

the past few weeks voted down local
taxation for public schools, Worth
and Lowndes being the most recent
to do so. Terrell has had local taxa

high as five dollars (the limit allowed

Many eyes are focused on Mexico,
that land of stress and bloodshed
where, with the exception of the re-
gime of Porfrio Diaz, the dove of
peace has never found a resting place
since Cortez went there for gold and
blood nearly four centuries ago.
There is almost worldwide interest
in what Huerta will finally do in the
way of meeting the demands of the
United States. Looking at human
nature as most of US find it, it will
be difficult for him to meet those de-
mands. The situation is truly tense
and grave, and developments of start
ling character may ensue any day.

FORTY THOUSAND
PHONES PLANNED
Automatic Telephone Company to
Equip Large Plant, Wires
Underground.

The Automatic Telephone company
has completed plans for the building
of a plant for forty thousand tele-
phones in the tri-cities. The directors
of the company say that the exceeding.
ly low rates will make 1t so that every
home in the tri-cities can afford a
telephone. The officers of the COM
pany expect to boast that their aver
age rate is the lowest, and their serv-
ice the best to be found In any city
In the world, and because OF the low
rates and excellent service, they ex-
pect to get the greatest number o.
telephones in proportion to the popu-
Iation, to be found in any city, either
this country or Europe.
Almost all of the wires will he
placed underground, and In the alleys
wherever possible. There will be a
larger proportion OF the wires under
ground than can be found in any other
city. This will eliminate the chances
for troubles, and greatly reduce the cost
OF the service. and make it very much
more reliable. The automatic teie.
phone also greatly reduces the COS,
of operation The savings thus effect
ed. make the low rates possible

MISS GROW IN RECITAL.

ALL MUSIC LOVERS IN ANY
community are not in a position to
hear great artists because the admis-
sion fees are usually too high. There
are many hard working people that
are very musical, who are putting
forth every effort to give their chill
dren an opportunity to study music,
but who are very rarely permitted to
enjoy an evening of inspiring music.
In parts of this community there have
been free and low priced concerts CIV
en- by local talent, but high class re-
citals and concerts by visiting artists
at low prices have not been usual.
The Augustana conservatory has insti-
tuted a series of recitals this year at
unusually low prices. 1t thus hopes
that every music lover in the tri-cities
will embrace the opportunities of hear
ing fine artists and at the same time
help make this series success so that
the conservatory can year after year
present fine artists at popular prices.
