CITY PROTESTS
POOR SERVICE
Resolutions Adopted by City COun-
ely Authorizes Officials To APP
peal To State Board.

A resolution, empowering the
mayor and city attorney OF Aledo
to make a formal protest to the
Illinois public utilities commission
against the inadequacies OF the
power and lighting furnished the
city by the Illinois Northern IT'LL
itiy company, was unanimously
adopted at a meeting of the city
council last evening.
The resolution which was
offered by Alderman G. c. Bowers,
reads as follows:
THAT the mayor and city attor-
ney be empowered to proceed to
take such action as is necessary
before the public utilities commits
sion to secure adequate light and
power service from the Illinois
Utility of Aledo for this city"
Mayor Beers and City Attorney
Robert L. Watson will prepare a
statement at once and submit it to
the state commission. The action
is prompted by the irregular power
service which the Utility company
has been furnishing throughout
the summer.
Has Contract.
The Illinois Northern has a con-
tract with the City of Aledo to sup
ply continuous light and power
service. The Illinois Northern, in
turn, has a similar agreement with
the Edwards River Power plant,
owned by the Rock Island South
ern railway. Fhe entire dissatis-
faction is due to the crippled con-
dition of the Edwards River plant,
which is in bad need of repair.

creased Book prices.

Various publishers Of school
books may lose the bond which
they, as required by law, have
posted with the state, due to an
authorized increases in text book
prices as sold to the retail dealers
Several local dealers in school
supplies have been duped. Publish
ers, according to the statute, must
list books at prices which the law
says must remain fixed for a period
of five years.
The present list price is too low.
the publishers say. They recently
asked permission Of the state school
board authorities to advance their
prices in accordance with what
they allege is the cost Of ulAnufac-
ture. This request was refused.
Despite the states refusal, how
ever, prices asked OF dealers Wora
advanced over those as listed.
Some dealers were ignorant OF the
list price and were assured by tho
publishers that the prices asked
conformed to the state standard
The law provides that the dealer
can only sell for a IS per cent ad-
vance over the prices as listed by
the state. This Is per cent fails to
cover the increased price already
paid the publishing company in
some instances however.
Liable 10 Lose Bond.
For infringement Of the Law the
publisher is liable to loss OF the
bond as posted with the state auth
critics. Should the dealer sell for
more thin Is per cent of the list
price he is liable to a fine of not
less than SIS and not more than
800.
Complaint has not yet been made
locally to the state board. This
duty devolves upon the board OF
education. Whether action will be
taken within the near future re-
mains to be seen.

Even the dangerous calling Of
the bull fighter has had its female
follower. Johanna Maestrick was
the name OF the young woman who
won renOwn as a matador. At an
early age she was taken to see a
bull fight IN Portugal Her femi-
nine susceptibilities, far from re-
voting at the spectacle, were
aroused TO a keen desire and de-
termination to emulate the prowess
of the bull fighter. After a course
of training she made her first ap-
pearance in the arena at Oporto.
The trial proved that her agility
and skill were equal to her cour-
age, for she quickly laid out two
ferocious bulls and rode of in tri-
umph amid thunders of applause.
