THE PUBLIC SERVICE
COMMISSION

The Public Service Commiss-
ion of West Va. is made up of a
body of high salaried men,
whose duties are supposed to be
to safe guard the rights of West
Virginia citizens. The people
of this great state pay taxes that
the salary of these men may be
paid. Sometimes it looks as if
this body in part might be obi
gated to someone else besides
the people Of w. Va. Figures
it IS said do not lie if that were
always true there would never
be crooked set of books that
could cover ENLIGHTENMENT. The
doctored accounts of big corpor-
atoms shouls' never out weigh
the rights Of the people on the
scales of Justice. Yet how few
have been the times that the
rights of the masses have bal
anced with the rights of the
classes before this commission

at the bar of the citizens of w

TWO DIE IN TROLLEY
CAR THAT RUNS WILD
Dozen Others injured in Acct
dent Near bethlehem.

Bethlehem, Pa. - a toll of two
dead and many injured, Lehigh
\ alley Transit limited car, bound from
Nazareth to this city, having aboard
about thirty passengers, all of whom
were bruised and shocked, sped down
steep hill near the Nazareth Fair
grounds, jumped the tracks, ripped
over a four-foot embankment. The
car turned completely over when !.
struck the soft soil of a corn field
made so by drizzling rain that was
falling.
The dead and most of the injured
were from this city. The officials OF
the company claim the accident was
caused by the locking or airbrakes and
slippery nails.
Those killed were: Elmer Eckhardt
and Owen Hugh Jones.
The usual Saturday nil hit crowd was
ON the car when 1t pulled out of the
Nazareth terminus few minutes
after midnight.
Proceeding, 1t is alleged, at & rapid
rate, the car descended the steep grade
of South lfain street about three
blocks from the turn Sheppards Ho-
tel Between the hill and the corner
are two railroad tracks. Conductor
Hertzog went forward to signal the
car at the crossings as usual, but the
car failed To slacken speed and passed
over them at seemingly gathering
speed.
Fears of the passengers that some
thing was wrong were found well
grounded moment later when the
conductor flung open the door from
the platform to the interior of the car
and staggered toward the rear, shout
ing, HE can't stop the car" An In
slant later the car reached the curve
left the track, crossed over the street
the corn field, where the heavy trucks
sank In the soft soil anG the car top
pied over on Its side. The top was
crushed in like an eggshell and fell
entirely free of the rest OF the car
with several passengers atop of 1t.
The cries Of fright that came from
four women passengers and some TWEEN
ty-five men as they realized their dan
ger changed perceptibly to cries OF
pain. Within the car vas a scene Of
the widest disorder Almost every
window on both sides WAS broken into
bits and these were largely RESPONSIBLE
for the injuries suffered BY almost all
the occupants On one side of the
car all the seats were torn loose.

has been no improvement in the
lines which supply this section
The number of employees have
been increased but little if any
and it is doubtful if the increase
in salary to their hirelings has
been in proportion to their in
crease in rates. 1t is an undenia-
abe fact that there valuation for
purposes Of taxation is far be-
low what it should be. There can
be but one solution of the prob
lem. The temptation of more
money for the gas in markets
outside the state, and a plan to
force the citizens of w. Va. to
pay the expense of putting in
these big mains leading beyond
the borders of w. Va.
