undertake to dispose of this franchise
while the present Telephone company Is
making claims that they have right to
the streets Of Lancaster and right to
fix the rates or any conditions Of the
franchise.
When 1t is prepared and sold the in
terest Of the City and the people should
be first considered and the first idea
should be good service at ms reasonable
rates as IL can be furnished by any tele.
phone company. Before the City Of
Lancaster can by franchise establish a
satisfactory telephone system with
reasonable rates and telephone service
it must be demonstrated by the Courts
that the present Company can not in
any way interfere with the City's
rights to fix these conditions. We be-
lieve the people of Lancaster have
nothing against the Basin Telephone
Company. but feel that they hive the
right to dictate the terms upon which
a telephone company may occupy the
streets and furnish service to the peo-
pie. When these questions are settled
the Council will, in all probability d.
rect the preparation of a franchise and
offer it for sale.

The most important measure before
this session of Congress is the Bill for
Universal Military service. The Hay
Bill federalizing the State Militia and
passed by the last Congress has been a
failure in every sense of the word and
Universal service seems the only way
that we can have any adequate pre-
paredness. The present militia, aside
from Icing a pork barrel lobbied
through Congress, by our four hundred
pound Adjutant Generals; and being
inefficient. is undemocratic in that it
puts the burden of military protection
upon few instead of all the people.
The plan indorsed by General Scott
would call for years service by every
man when he reached the age of nine
teen or twenty years, and in this way
an efficient citizen reserve would be
secured. The Administration which
has heretofore been opposed to this
system is said to have been convinced
by the inefficiency of the Militia. that
the Universal training plan is the only
adequate one, and that it will be sup
ported by the President when Congress
convenes again after the Holidays.

his body was cremated and his ashes
were buried in Cincinnati last Monday.
Beside his wife he is survived by one

THE TELEPHONE SUITS.

The litigation between the Basin
Telephone Company and tine City of
Lancaster over the telephone fran
chise was all disposed of by the Gar
rard Circuit Court at its recent term.
In the case where the Telephone Com
pany was suing the City of Lancaster
for a franchise the case was decided
against the Telephone Company, Judge
Hardin deciding that the Telephone
Company had no right to force the
City to sell it franchise. The effect
Of the decision is that the CITY Council
has the right to sell or not sell fran
chise according to the wish of the
Council
The case in which the City of Lam
caster and the people were suing to
compel the Telephone Company to
furnish service to the people of Lam
caster at one dollar per month accord
ing to its contract with the city was
decided in favor Of the City and the
people and against the Telephone Com
pany in 80 far as it required service IN
the City of Lancaster at one dollar per
month. but outside of the city of
Lancaster the court held that the city
had no authority to fix the rates for
the country people in Garrard county
and further that il was not in the
power of the City Council to sell a
franchise and regulate these rates for
the country people and that they had
their remedy with the Fiscal Court.
All these questions will be taken to the
Court of Appeals and settled and the
two suits now pending will be disposed
of probably during the year 1917.

the Legislative committee appointed
to prepare tax bill has reported the
result of its labors to the Governor.
We have no doubt that they have made
faithful. painstaking endeavor in the
preparation of the proposed bill to re-
form the tax fystem of our State.
After examining this work We regret
that to US there are parts watch We be-
lieve will prove unsatisfactory if enact
ed into law. 1t is proposed to reduce
the rate of taxation on money and in
tangible property to ten cents on one
hundred dollars and to reduce the rate
of taxation on all other property from
ITS present rate of fifty-ive cents on
one hundred dollars to forty cents. 1t
will be recalled that the present rate of
taxation fails by more than one half
million dollars to provide the necessary
revenue to meet the expenses Of the
state government. 1t is contended by
the friends Of the proposed bill that al
though this wholesale reduction in the
rate of taxation that the proposed bill
will raise more revenue than under the
present laws. 1t follows that the only
way it can be done is by raising the as
sessed value of property for taxation
to a sufficient extent to overcome the
reduction in rate and still raise a much
larger sum than we are receiving at
this time. The effect of the proposed
legislation as We see it is, therefore,
to cause the farming classes of our
citizens and the real estate holders to
pay a larger sum for taxation than they
have heretofore paid.
1t will almost relieve those who loan
money from taxation altogether. The
owners of real estate will not be de-
ceived into supporting a bill which
purperts to raise more revenue and at
the same time reduce the rate of taxa
ton and then raise the assessment Of
their property to an extent that will
cause them to pay more taxes than
they have ever paid before. TINS bill
Is prepared under the constitutional
amendment which authorizes the taxing
of one class of property more than
another ana it was thought by many
that before any legislation could become
effective under this amendment that it
would necessitate submission of the
bill to the approval Of the people by
vote, but this referendum provision is
not required of any legislation after
the year 1916.
The present taxing laws are badly in
need Of amendment and are thoroughly
inadequate to the present needs. When
the legislature meets to consider a new
tax bill we believe that there will be
many amendments to the one proposed.
In addition to a change in the rate of
taxation we would like to see further
remodeling in the manner Of assessing
property.
