Co. it should be understood the sale is
actually to be made to the national
telephone trust.
The city has the right under ordi-
nances granted Illinois Telephone &
Telegraph Co., Feb. 20, 1899, to now
pass an ordinance declaring a for

of forfeiture. Jim Meagher, one of
our best corporation lawyers and a
pal of Roger Sullivan, was dragged in
as a witness in favor of forfeiture.
Stephen A. Foster nearly took the
breath away from the three corpora
ton lawyers who had talked nearly
all day to the gas-Oil committee when
he read from a petition filed by For
gan and Dawes, receivers for the ILL
6ois Tunnel Co. before U. S. Judge
Kohlsaat, March 16, 1910. They asked
the court to let them raise $780,
900 through receivers certificates.
And they wanted this $3,5OO,O0O for
the use of Joseph Harris of the tUn-
mel company to build up the number
of subscribers to the automatic phone
system till the company would have
10000 subscribers, ''in accordance
with the provisions of the ordinance"
Time after time, over and over
again, in one clause after another
Dave Forgan and Charlie Dawes ad-
mitted that unless the company had
10000 subscribers it was not living
up to the franchise ordinance grant
ed by the city and would be liable to
forfeiture.
Standing back of his petition and
saying it's good law and will stand in
any court was the law firm of Sears,
Meagher & Whitney.
''This throws a clear light on what
some good business men thought of
the forfeiture clause of the ordinance
at that time" said Foster, 1T is the

AN AID TO GOOD HEALTH.

Hello, old man. you're looking fine "
Did you ever notice how you perk
up, no matter how poorly you were
feeling before, when some friend greets
You in that way?
According 10 Or. s. K McKeIvey,
secretary Of the Colorado state board
of health, the human system just nat
urally begins to tone up under the
stimulus Of such greetings
He declares it's an aid TO health and
u help in preventing disease and to
that end he advocates a new move
ment = tell-youT friends-how-well-
they-look" movement.
Its not only bad taste TO talk OF
your pains and ailments" says Or.
Mekelyey. but II is reflection on your
intelligence and knowledge Of health,
sanitation and good health. We are
not far from the time when the cause
Of illness will have TO be accounted for
personally.
In other words. nature is no longer
grins TO be blamed for sickness when
1t is simply the result of ignorance,
indifference or wrong WAYS Of living.
Don't you think il worth giving DR..

kept out of her way.
Ten years passed. Lillian Maitland
had become an old maid. a number
of Young men of her own class had
wanted her. but her father had looked
over the heads of all of them for
husband for his daughter. Lillian did
not fall in love with any of them: con.
sequently she never rebelled. Down in
her heart was a memory Of the red
headed, freckle faced man who had
asked for her and his cruel treatment
! by her father. That father was now
dead. and she might marry whom she
pleased. But at 80 women are harder
to please than at 20 and are not so
attractive to men. AT any rate Miss
Maitland showed no signs of matri-
mony.
One day man well dressed and
prosperous looking Unattached her gate
and walked up TO the house. Lillian
saw him coming and met him at the
door. He had red hair, but ii was

his overcoat was silk lined His boots
were blaekened, and he carried cane

| There was a pause, after which the
man said: Years ago asked favor
of Mr.. Maitland l have been wonder
ing ever since how had the assurance
to do So
Won't YOU come in?"
When the two were seated on oppo-
site sides OF the living room the visitor
continued.
I'm sorry Mr.. Maitland is dead. An
attorney has recently come from Eng
land hunting for an heir to title and
a large estate Mr.. Maitland was the
person he was looking for. and, Mr..
Maitland being dead, the estate falls 10
me. A hundred years ago there were
two brothers named Maitland. Mr..
Maitland descended from one of them,
] from the other, If Mr. Maitland had
left son he would not be the heir. As
lit is / am the heir"
There was a long silence after this
speech. Miss Maitland looked down at
the floor.
Il asked Mr.. Maitland" the visitor
went on. for permission to win his
daughter,
so that is where you learned such
ithings!" interrupted Lillian. 1T was

barons. The Il" roads have fairly
good monopoly now. But the city OF
Chicago hasn't even standing room.
Here is what The Journal says:
'T'ha L barons have been persistent
foes Of subway construction They are
determined not to cooperate in subway
building until the city consents to a
valuation Of the u properties about
s40, 900. 900 in excess Of what the lines
are worth. But the barons forget that
their cooperation is not necessary.
Chicago can get along without them.
The city has s16,505 900 nov in the
traction fund, available for subway
construction. II will soon have at
Eeast SO 500 900 more. II can get
SIS. 900 900 from the surface lines by
calling on them in the form prescribed
BY the ordinances OF 1907 That

three years.

CHCAGo'S PROBLEM.

Most every city has its transporta-
tion problems, Al the present time the
city OF Chicago Ia in the midst OF a
subway agitation chieago's trans
portation facilities have been made
auate for many years. The almost
miraculous growth of this metropolis
has resulted in congestion in traffic
that must be relieved IN the near nut
ure.
II seems that the Il" management
does not want suhways. This 10 nat
urally very reasonable. from their
standpoint On the other hand, the
people want suhways and this Is also
very reasonable on their part The
city has been negotiating with the ele-
waited roads in an effort for coopera-
ton. The roads are holding out and
the people are waiting for she sub
ways.

II is not true that any large city can
hold a convention as well as any other
large city. A convention should not
be treated as a mere spectacle to draw
crowds The making of a presiden-
tial nomination is an important event
in history, one that may be of vast
consequence TO the nation. The sur
roundings of the convention and the
influences upon its deliberations are
of such great weight that they should
be the major consideration in deter
mining where II is to be held; money
should be secondary altogether. The
committee should take thought only on
the question. What city can best take
care of the convention"
If it does this, of course it will de-
eide Oh Chicago. The idea of holding
II in Dallas will send a shudder down
the backs of those who remember the
last amateur that tried to hold con-
vention AS for San Fran
cisco, the excessive cost and incon-
venience to most of the delegates
should bar that city from considera-
ton, no matter what the size Of its
money-bag There is still more I'M
portant reason, which is that public
opinion would he virtually unable to
exert itself there, and the convention
would almost be held in private. There
! Is from two to three hours difference
/ in time between San Francisco and
the majority of the voters of the coun-
/ try which means that the meas OF
what the convention is doing would
not get before the voters on this side
