Owes Something to Public.

President Meloon stated that the
extension could not be undertaken un-
less the citizens contributed toward it's
construction. When asked how much
he thought they ought to raise he said
that he did not believe it would paw
running expenses. even If the construc-
ton cost the company nothing. but
that he realized that the company owed
something TO the public for its fran
chise and would not require that the
people raise the entire amount. He did
not care 10 make a statement as 10
how much it would be necessary TO
raise, bat suggested that the committee
see what they could do aud let him
know how much would be required
from the company and then he would
lay the matter before the directors. not
being in a position personally TO prom
lSe what would be done.
1t was the understanding after the
conference that the persons interested
would make an effort TO see how much
financial assistance the patrons would
he able to furnish.

Washington, Nov. 20.-Great Brit
ain declines to modify in favor or
American manufacturers the embargo
on the expectation of wool from Aus
tralia and other British dominions.
it had been hoped that after the needs
Of the British army were satisfied,
Americans might be permitted to buy
the Australian surplus, giving guar.
antees that neither wool nor its man,
ufactures would reach Germany and
Australia. but the state department
was informed that, for the present at
least, no expectations will be made.
It is understood the decision of the
British regarding wool also applies TO
rubber, of which large quantities are
exported to America from the Straits
Settlements and India. There is
nothing official on this.

A DANGEROUS LAW
ISnringneld Sun. }


The passage of the Mills bill by the
senate, permitting municipal corpora
tions to issue bonds for any amount
of money to purchase public utilities
is evidence of the power OF the par
ty lash in the Ohio general assembly.
The passage of this bill means an
added danger Of municipal bankrupt
cy for the cities of Ohio and increased
burdens for the taxpayers.
Under the proposed law, municipal
tiles have the power to issue bonds
for the purchase of any public utility.
These bonds will become a lien upon
the entire property of the municipal
corporation, instead of upon the prop
erty of the corporation alone. Thus
it becomes possible for an aggregate
of councilmen or commission, dis
honestly inclined or ignorant, to ere
ate fortunes for few at the expense
of the many. 1t will be possible for
the appraisers of the utility to put
1 fictitious value upon its assets and
with the connivance of dishonest
council or corrupt commission TO
buy the utility at an inflated value,
issue bonds to pay for it and then
make these bonds lien upon the en-
tire property of the municipality. The
proposal is an unfair one and gives
purchasers of these bonds an oppor-
tunity which holders OF ordinary mu-
nicipal bonds do not possess.
