ROSEMARY.

When would go a-walking
In springtime on the green
AS other hearty lads may do
With loves TO look and leans
There is a hand, a wasted hand
That slips our hands between.
And when I bend above you
And lean to touch your lips,
Another face is lifted
AS the white heron dips.
When the sailor lads come home
Who man the lonley ships.
And were we two ftoghether
Too close to breathe or stir,
With stars our wakeful candles
Upon strOwn boughs of fir.
Could not live beside you
And not remember her.

Contends Public Service
Order Is Not Binding
Moreover, Consolidated Gas Says 1t Won't Obey 1t and
States It's Side of Gas Range Rental Case-Applances
Installed by Corporation Cost About $3,5OO,0OO.

The Consolidated Gas Company OF
New York has asked the Public Service
Commission for the First District for
a rehearing in the matter OF Edward
Is. Bruch. on whose complaint the PUB
lie Service Commission two weeks ago
directed the gas company TO modity
its rules aud regulations as to the
rental of gas ranges. The order issued
by the Public Service Commission pro-
vided that upon the expiration OF the
first years rental Of gas range any
renewal thereof might be cancelled on
a thirty days notice TO the gas com,
pany, and the order further provided
that the gas company should refund
to the person renting gas range the
amount paid for the unexplred term
of the renewal.
The Consolidated Gas Company in its
application for rehearing, which was
filed last Wednesday, notified the Pub
lie Service Commission that the order
issued by il would not be accepted, and
would not be obeyed. The grounds set
forth were:
l. That the Public Service Commits
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1915-05-16

sion had no jurisdiction in the matter
2. That the evidence rs given before
the Public Service Commission was in
sufficient TO justify any such order.
3. That the order was unjust, and
unreasonable, and that il unduly in
terfered with the discretion of tho
gas company's officers in the manage
nent OF its affairs, and was therefore
contrary 10 the provisions Of the
statute.
4. That the order was arbitrary and
oppressive and cOniscatory.
;. That the order was Illegal and
void. because. in contravention Of the
Fourteenth Amendment of the Consti-
tuition of the United States. the order
deprived the gas company of its
property without just compensation,
and denied the company the equal pro-
lection Of the law.
8. That the rules and regulations of
the company requiring one years
rental IN advance, and granting re-
newal to the following April /. and
thereafter from April l TO April /.
were reasonable, just and proper rules
and regulations, and were 10 the best
interest of MAJ orityl Of the gas COM
pany's consumers, and 10 the best in
terest OF the company's business.
In its petition for rehearing the
gas company further pointed out that
the rules and regulations were adopted
on the ground that about so per cent
of its consumers rent gas appliances
in the spring months. a large percent
age Of whom occupy what are called
cold water fats" and who, upon the
approach of winter, remove the ranges
and substitute coal ranges for the pur-
pose Of heating the kitchen and other
rooms in the customers fats or apart
ments. The company further contended
that IL the order made by the Public
Service Commission was TO be con-
tinued in force the gas company would
be put TO the expense Of bringing in
thousands Of gas ranges in the fall OF
the year, cleaning, repairing and stor-
ing the gas ranges during the winter
months and then putting out those gas
ranges in the spring, and this, the COM

(By Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 4.-With
the great nations of Europe wasting
their wealth and their resources with
freehanded disregard, and this coun-
try being forced to depend more and
more upon its own capital, agricultur-
al and mineral resources, the question
of our undeveloped stores takes on an
interest such as it never before has
had. In this connection the National
Geographic Society has prepared a
statement which says
"In addition to the wonderful agri-
cultural and mineral development
which already has taken place in the
United States, and which makes this
country outrank any other in the world
in the value of her crops and the pro-
duct of her mines, we have vast un-
developed resources. We have more
coal, more petroleum, more phosphate,
and more copper than any other
country. Our coal reserves reach such
an overwhelming total as to make the
combined coal reserves of the next six
greatest producing nations all Of
whom are at war--dwindle into insig-
nificance. Zinc, lead, silver, timber,
salt, iron ore and other staples of COM
merce are here in undeveloped abun-
dance. Alaska is the greatest of our
unexploited troves.
"The largest body of unused and
neglected land in the United States IS
Alaska. 1t isl now nearly a century
since we purchased this territory, and
it contains today less than 10000 white
| inhabitants, less than 1000 for each
year it has been in our possession.
The purchase was made as a means Of
protection against possible aggression
of foreign nation and without hope
that it would be even self-supporting
In the intervening 46 years we have
given it little more than the most cas-
ual concern; yet its mines, fisheries
and furs alone have added to our
wealth the grand sum of $500,000 900.
Individual fortunes have been made in
that country larger than the price paid
to Russia for the whole territory.
Its waters are teeming rich with
skins and fish. How rich we know, be-
cause they have been proved. But how
rich it's lands are in gold and copper,
coal and oil, iron and zinc, no one
knows. The prospector has gone far
enough, however, to tell us that no
other section of our land today makes
so rich a mineral promise And in ag-
riculture the government itself has de-
monstrated that Alaska will produce
in abundance all that can be raised in
the Scandinavian countries. (Sitka has
cooler summers and warmer winters
than Washington, D. c., the hardy
cereals and vegetables, the meats and
the berries off which nine million peo-
pie live in Norway Sweden and Fin
land. 1t has been estimated that there
are 50,O00,000 acres of this land that
will make homes for people as sturdy
as those Of New England. Alaska can
be made self-sustaining agriculturally.
1T is a territory one-flfth the size Of
the United States containing less than
1000 miles of anything that can be
called a wagon road. 1t has a few
