THREE LODGES PLAN MAMMOTH PICNIC
 AT LEWIS SPRINGS
EaqIes, Red Men and Knights of PythiaS Will Hold Gala Outing, Sunday, June 13, at Lewis Springs.

Three Bisbee lodges are combining in plans for a picnic outing Sunday, June 13, at Lewis Springs. The Eagles, Knights of Pythias and Red Men are cooperating in what should be the most successful effort of It's kind ever conducted in the district. A feature of interest in connection with the event is that it will be the first dry picnic held by a Bisbee lodge. A special train will convey the mer- ry.makers to the scene of the festiy- tiles and 1t is hoped and expected that there will be a large attendance on the part of the public.
 Sports, dancing, music and refresh ments will feature the outing. The Copper Queen band has been invit- ed to attend and, accordingly, some fine music may be expected. Alto ,gether there seems little or no doubt that the picnic will be a splendid sue cess in every way.
 The Saturday preceding the date of the picnic will witness a striking de monstration by the lodgemen. In the evening the three lodges will partici-

Chamber Commerce Adopts
Resolution Favoring One
Telephone System.
ELECT new DIRECTORS
H. L. Smith Gives Lecture.
Agricultural Committee
Submits Report.

At well attended meeting of the
Fairmont Chamber of Commerce held
in the Watson building last night res
olutions were adopted by the body
fayoring the consolidation Of the Bell
Telephone Company and the Consoli-
dated Company of this city into one
system. having one exchange.
The resolution passed almost unani;
,mously with very few dissenting
votes. The matter of consolidating
the two systems is not new one, as
the Chamber of Commerce has dis.
cussed It before In their meetings. a
few months ago resolution was
adopted asking the Public Service
Commission OF West Virginia to in
.yesttgate the ownership Of the Con-
solidated Company to ascertain II pos
sible whether or not It was controlled
by the Bell people. Later this reso-
luton was withdrawn and the i'uoiIc
Service Commission never made the
investigation.
The following is the resolution
adopted by the Chamber of Commerce
the consolidation:
Fairmont Chamber of Commerce in
general meeting assembled, that we
believe the time has come IN the city
of Fairmont and in the state OF west
Virginia when the maintenance OF
two telephone systems is an unneces-
sary burden without any special bene-
fit; provided, II, as we believe, the
public service commission Of West
Virginia has full and complete author
ity to regulate the charges for tele-
phone service within the state.
Resolved, That the officers OF this
association be hereby directed to pre-
sent this view to the Consolidated Tel
iephone company Of West Virginia, the
Central District Telephone company,
and the public service commission OF
West Virginia, urging upon each and
all of them the Importance of this con:
solidation, and Offering the services OF
this organization in every possible
way to help bring it to pass without
IN any way appearing to favor either
company to the disadvantage OF the
other.

OF COAL RUN
-7----------
New Proposition May Be
Adopted Instead of Plan
For New Bridge.
TO FILL 300 FEET WIDE
City Would Receive More
Taxes From Larger Val

A proposition has been advanced by
several prominent business men OF
tho city to fill in that portion OF Coal
Run over which the present bridge IS
located and to such an extent on each
side that would enable business blocks
to be erected.
The plan suggested is to fill in a
strip about 800 feet wide, making the
street 60 feet wide to conform with
the width of Main street, leaving the
lots on either side 120 feet in length.
The expense OF filling in Coal Run.
as contemplated would be enormous,
but the mon behind the project are
strong financially and believe that
now is an opportune time to take the
matter up, when the question OF new
bridges is being discussed.
In order to assist in working out the
proposition it has been suggested that
the city could well afford to contribute.
to the, enterprise the amount that
would be required to build new
bridge. 1t is pointed out that at best
anew bridge would only be temporary
and would have TO be- rebuilt after
stwenty.fiye or thirty years, while if
the Ill Is made IT. will be permanent. ].

Another reason given why the city
would benefit by the i'm 2royement is
that the, taxes received from the IN.
