fered from rheumatism in my legs, my
feet would swell and | was tired and
languid all the time was badly
rundown. lost weight, strength and
energy and none of the medicines |
took did me any good.
"Aftcr using Tanlac for short time
/ began to pick up and kept improv-
ing till now my rheumatism is all
gone, the pains have disappeared from
my back and my kidneys don't worry
me like they did. | have a fine appe.
tite and can eat anything l want with
out suffering at all from INDIGESTION.

Without a franchise the equipment
Of the electric light plant may be re-
moved from the streets at any time
and even when franchise and con-
tract have been made for a : gross
breach or violation or its franchise
the equipment might be removed by
proper proceedings.
AS this is matter or so much i'm
portance to the people of Cresco I
very much desire that blank fran
chise and blank contract be submitted
for your inspection before any cleo
ton is called and with that in view
have asked the Interstate Power Co.
TO submit to us for uur inspection a
franchise and contract that we may
study it and understand it, and should
there be things either by addition or
subtraction which is desired such
changes may be submitted to the COM
pany and also to the voters before an
election. TIL company has assured
me that it will submit such fran
chise' and contract for our inspection
and l expect them here in the near
future. The contract has already
been received
This is purely business matter
and I feel that we should deliberate
the matter very considerably.

HAD CHRONIC BRONCHITIS
FOR TWENTY SIX YEARS
now WELL AND HAPPY
THIS IS WORTH READING

The experience of Mr.. E.. J. Tou-
palik, 1438 Rose street, Lacrosse,
) Wisconsin, is chiefly remarkable
on account of, the length of time
he was afflicted.
He writes: 81 have been suf-
fering with chronic bronchitis for
twenty-six years and every winter
would catch cold and become so
hoarse could not speak for six or
eight weeks. I could get only tenn
2orary relief.
"This winter l was taken with
Grip and was in awful shape. A
fellow workman advised me to take
ysPE-RU-NA. BY the time I had
used three-fourths of bottle, the
hoarseness was gone, also that
tired feeling. I am Oh my second
bottle. Hereafter PE-RU-NA will
be constantly in my house. 1t is
the best medicine ever put up for
the purpose"
For any disease due to catarrh
or catarrhal conditions, PERU MA
is equally dependable. Coughs,
colds, catarrh Of the head, stomach
trouble, constipation, rheumatism,
pains in the back, side and loins,
bloating, belching gas, indigestion,
catarrh of the large and small in
testines, are some of the troubles
for which PE-RU-NA is especially
recommended.
PE-RU-NA can be purchased
anywhere in either tablet or liquid
form.

THE ELECTRIC LIGHT FRAN.
CHISE.
A Statement by the Mayor.

AS the franchise of the Interstate
Power Co. has expired the question Of
granting franchise will likely be
submitted to the voters of Cresco al
an election specially called for that
purpose, but may not be until the
regular election next spring. If a
company, individual, firm or corpora
ton desires franchise such concern
must pay the expense of the election
and as this is matter of so much in
terest to our city, believe it would
be best to have special election for
that purpose only.
AS this has reference to the electric
light plant I shall refer to no other
matter which a franchise might in
clude.
A franchise is granted only by a
majority vote of the votes cast at an
election and grants the use of the
streets and alleys for poles, wires,
etc. Sec. IT'S of the code of 1897, sec
72O, 721, 725 and 776 of the supple
ment to the code 1907, regulates the
manner of elections and franchises.
A franchise cannot be granted for a
longer period than rs years but may
be less number of years.
When a franchise has once been
granted by the voters of the city the
council may regulate the placing Of
the poles, wires, etc., along the streets
and alleys and may prescribe reason
able rate for it's use as we'll as many
other matters. If rates cannot be
agreed upon then the courts must de-
eide what is reasonable rate. AS
the cost of material and labor at this
time is very high it would seem to me
If a franchise is granted it should
