Back To The Bicycle

Flocks of jokes have been cracked about the
country going "back to the BICYCLE" in about the
same tone as those about giving it back to the In
dans"
But as so often happens, while the jokes are
being made, the thing itself has happened The
country really has gone back to the bicycle. More
bicycles being built or one, however, seldom any
longer for two) than before. The pictures from
the Bicycle Age in the Gay Nineties are still amusing
and nobody stops to think that more bicycles are
built today and ridden than there were in the
days when Daisy was being importuned for her an
swer true.
Defense, steel and gasoline shortages have
speeded up the building Of BICYCLES but the business
was booming before that and last year saw 1880 900
bikes built. This year of 1911 will probably reach
million and a half

The French Pay

The cost of preparedness is high. Everybody is
worried, and rightly SO, about the increase in gov
eminent debt the cost, in money and time and sac
rifice of defense.
All roads are costly today On the other side
take look at France, which did not prepare well
enough. Four hundred thousand francs day France
pays to Germany for the inestimable privilege of
entertaining in it's midst conquering German army
How much that is in money is hard to say, because
franc today what Berlin says it is. But you can get
some idea from the fact that this annual indemnity
of 146 OO0OOO000 francs is more than twice Frances
annual receipts, than all other French expen-
ditures.
So while it costs to prepare, it costs to be I'M
prepared, too.

pal officials proposed to buy the
company. setting a top price of
/ $4,000, 900. and submitted the pro-
posal to the voters.
Vote for purchase was six to
one. II then took an appraisal
court, consisting of three judges
appointed by the Nebraska Su-
preme Court chief justice. two
years to determine a price of
/ 81, 500,0 900, which was 81 500, 900
less than the company asked and
81 100000 more than the city
offered.
There was strong objection TO
accepting the award. Many citi-
zens and some officials proposed
construction of a competing COM
pany. 1t was charged the COM
panys property had deteriorated
and extensive repairs would be
necessary.
Despite these objections and the
prediction that rates would go up,
the purchase was approved and
financed by a S5,000,000 bond
issue.
TEMPORARY INCREASE
Rates did go up. They jumped
from Sis per 1000 cubic feet to
81 AS as the city replaced obsolete
equipment and laid new mains.
The gas works was incorporated
with the metropolitan water dis
trict under direction of r. B.
Howell.
Within two years Howell was
able 10 effect a reduction in rates
and was elected to the Senate.
Col. T. A. Liesen. a Detroit water
commissioner. was drafted to re-
place Howell. Under his admin
istration the gas service was
expanded and rates further re-
duced.
Today the Omaha householder
pays Is cents for the first 500
cubic feet of gas and so cents
per 1000 cubic feet thereafter. II
is estimated that the average cost
of cooking, water heating and gas
refrigeration for a family Of five
is S4.25 a month.
Editors Note - Direct COM
parison of Detroit and Omaha
rates is impossible because OF
different billing and heat rating
systems.)
RECENTLY RETIRED
When Colonel Liesen retired Is
months ago he was succeeded by
Walter S. Byrne, an engineer and
merchant. Under Byrne, the
utility is waging a campaign tc
broaden its market, particularly
in house heating and the sale OF
gas appliances to its $1,000 GUS
toners.
The city now has 2,400 house
heating customers. Average cost
of heating a six-room insulated
home is figured at SIPS year.
Omaha has a utilities board OF
six men controlling municipal dis
tribution of water. gas and ice.
They serve six-year terms at $500
a year salaries.
Despite the caliber of the board
members. they have been subject
to occasional criticism. Some of
this criticism recently resulted in
the board providing in its bylaws
that no member may recommend
| any one for emnloyment in the
utilities.
Another quarrel is over award
ing of insurance and a plan to
pro-rate the insurance contract
among all Omaha agencies is now
being studied.
NEW BUYING SYSTEM
Purchase of appliances without
competitive bids was also criti-
cized and new buying system is
