pected
The boy had taken a ride from
Fox City up to the spring on a sled
going over to Dome City, and had
started back to Fox when the dogs
attacked him. They got him down
in the snow and literally tore all
of the clothes from his body, ana
probably would have killed him but
for the timely arrival on the scene
Of an old Russian who was out rab-
bit hunting. At that it is esti-
mated that the dogs rolled the boy
around in the snow. biting him all
the time, for period of twenty
minutes before help arrived.
When the Russian arrived on the
scene the three dogs turned to him
and got him down in the snow but
help arrived before he was very
seriously bitten. A large collar
turned up around the boys face
and head probably saved him from
serious injury to the neck and face
most of the bites being Oh the hack
and top of the head.
The dogs in the case are the
property of Mrs. Nicely of Fox. The
citizens of the creek town are much
being stated that legal proceedings
will be started to compel the owner
of the dogs to kill them.

against its enactment advanced by its author
and by the president OF the electric lighting

more dsinterested presentation OF the issues. am

ship going back long before Mr.. Howell looked
into the subject but favored either con-
fscation of corporate property helping the/cor-
porations unload at two prices on the taxpayers
1t is the irony of that municipal electric light
roect was urged by The Bee for Omaha In 1904 when
It was blocked only by a tie-up between Mr. Howell
and the Electric Lighting company, which was cur
rently reported have spent upwards Of $4,000 to
accomplish the dual object OF heading off municipal
ownership of light, and landing Mr.. Howell on the
water board At that time The Bee at the risk of Mr.
Howells dspeasure suggested that would be cheaper
and safer for the city to try out it's first municipal
ownership experiment with $4,000 electric instala-
ton than with water works already threatening to
cost us $5,000,000 or 100000.
One other preliminary thought can see no con
fscation in the proposition empower the people to
build operate their electric lighting plant or
to exercise power either through the water district
or through the city The people of Omaha
have that power right through their city govern
ment and when the home-rule charter being
framed included a municipal ownership plank that
would authorize the city both to light its streets
and sell light TO private CONSUMERS whenever IL "anVeu

would have had by that charter. give another Light

the Independent Telephone company, and while it
would be very foolish do so, there would be
fiscation in it, there two companies operating
here with electric light franchises the city could buy
one Of them and not the other. and 1t would not DE
confscation.
The only for the pending lighting bill grows
out the fact that the water district was needlessly
created by the last legislature separate and distinct
from the municipal government. and with different
geographical area. Before all this Water board legis-
