A, Sunderland, R. B. Howell and Commissioners Hold Forensic Free-for-All ARISES OVER LIGHT RATES The city council chamber is becom- ing quite a social center, where ora- tory is heard every now and then. The council meetings used to be dry, for- mal affairs, but a new esprit de corps have been developed, and every now and then there is a session that is worth the money. At a meeting of the council commit- tee of the whole yestterday morning, J. A. Sunderland, R. B. Howell, Mayor Dahlman and Commissioners Butler and Jardine held a little forensic free- for-all. The remark was made that the council chamber is a public speedway where debaters may burn up a few shavings. R. B. Howell and J. A. Sunderland were the chief exponents of spoken ideas on this occasion. Mr. Sunder- land appeared as chairman of the Commercial club's special electric light rate committee, to ask that the council agree to delegate a repre- sentative to confer with a represen- tative of the light company i the capacity of advising the special com- mittee before it makes up its final re- port of information recently prepared by three experts. Howell Speaks Up. “ls there anything in your engi- neer's report which the pubhic should not know?” asked Mr. Howell, who added: “The committee should do s work openly and above board. Your committee 1s in an unfortunate posi- tion. The public does not feel that the electric light company is paying the expenses of these engineers for a report adverse to the company.” "l resent the imputation that our committee is dominated by General Harries ar the light company. This is an honarable committee,” replied Mr. Sunderland, with considerable unction. Must File Report. Commissioner Butler insisted that the special committee sheuld file with the city a copy of the engincer's re- ports as requested in a recent resolu- tion of the council. He was sus- tained: The discussion arose when the But- ler 6-cent electric light rate ordinance was brought up. This ordinance was laid over for sixty days upon motion of the mayor. Mr. Sunderland explained that his collimittee is endeavoring to perform a public service in arriving at what would be a reasonable and just rate, or rates, to be charged by the light company. In view of this effort by the committee a majority of the city council believe that the Commercial club's. committee should be given an opportunity to complete its work in its own way, the understanding being that. the findings of the committee have no binding effect on the council, but will be accepted for what they may be worth.

Refer Street Opening Problem to City Lawyers Two ordinances, referring to the opening of Douglas street, Twenty- fourth street to Twenty-fifth avenue, were referred by the city council com- mittee of the whole to the city at- torney and City Planning board for report next Monday. There is a legal question whether the division of this improvement into two districts in or(rer to keep within the $50,000 maximum for any one district, is a subterfuge which might invalidate the special taxes. ROAD DRAGGING FUND HAS BALANCE New Automobile License Law Proves Bonanza for Doug- las County Highways. INCREASE IN LICENSES 1f Douglas county roads are not in good condition this season it will not be due to a lack of available funds to keep them in shape. The new automobile license law is proving a genuine bonanza, so far as Douglas county is concerned, and the road dragging fund now contains a balance of $26,579.32, immediately available for road dragging, upon order of the county commissioners. The number of automobile licenses issued this year is far in excess of expectations, and the number issued daily conunues to be large. More than 200 numbers have been issued since July 1, and the total of ma- chines licensed in Douglas county is nearing the 8,000 mark, according to County Treasurer Ure. The annual license is $3, or $1.50 for six months, the licenses expiring December 31, 1916, Of the amount paid, 35 cents goes into the state treasury to pay for numbers and reg- istration, and the balance goes into the road dragging fund of the county in which the license is paid. Balance 1s Large. Since January 1, $20,500 has been paid into the Dounglas county road dragging fund from this source, and a balance of $10,167 was on hand at the opening of the year. So far the county commissioners have ordered the expenditure of but $4,087 for road dragging. “We are keeping the roads in good shape, and for the first time Hhave plenty of money available for drag- ing,” said Commissioner A. C. arte. “We have one big machine at work on the Military road to Elk | City, another on the Lincoln high- way, and a third on other main trav- eled roads running into Omaha. In addition, we are employing a num- ber of four-horse machines on the lateral roads intersecting with the other highways. Plenty of funds are on hand to keeB our men employed constantly, and Douglas county roads should show great improvement un- der the new law.” Nebraska Profiibs to National Convention at Minneapolis Twenty-five prohibitionists from Omaha and Nebraska departed for Minneapolis yesterday evening over the Great Western to attend the na- tional convention of the party.

Though the earthquake caused con- siderable material damage to Sands- boro, partially wreckinf the hotel, a bank and several smaller buildings, but few casualties and no fatalities resulted. Within an hour Hope, Cleo and Dr. Owen, their clothing stiil showing traces of dust and falling plaster, were seated about a table in the latter's study, poring over the book which Cleo had snatched from Olga during the panic in the restau- rant, X “There’'s nothing in this one, either,” said Hope disgustedly, as he turned the last leaf and slammed the cover. “That leaves six more books to look for. Things are narrowing down, in any event.” asked “Where do we go now?” Cleo. See “The next name on the list” said Hope, taking from his pocketbook the page from Dawson's ledger, “is Rich- ar(f Patten, care general delivery, Santa Eulalia, 3 “And where is Santa Eulalia?” “It's at the southern end of the San Joaquin valley, Miss Burke,” said the physician. ‘‘Right in the edge of the mountains. It's onl'y a small place. You shouldn't have difficulty in find- i our man there.” hen Hope and Cleo descended from the branch line local at Santa Eulalia late the following afternoon they found that they were, as Owen had said, in the edge of the moun- tains. Santa Eulalia is one of those rural communities where everyone is, or professes to be, familiar with the details of everyone else’s business. In such towns there are three recognized fountain-heads of information: The hotel, the general store and the bar- ber shop, and, as the proprietor of the general store was also postmaster, in_Flanders,” “The Road to Copyright, 1916, by E. Alexander Powell. it was to him that Hope, having set- tled Cleo in the onlv hotel that the town boasted, addressed his inquiries. “Do I know Dick Patten?" repeated the norekcc&?r in response to Hope's question. “Well, I reckon I do. I've sold a heap of goods to Dick. He's outfitted with me for's much as fif- teen years.” e is “What is Hope. “Well,” said the merchant re- flectively, “I reckon you might call Dick a prospector and not be far wrong. At any rate, that's what he's been doing as long's I've known him. Never made a strike that I heard tell of, but he always has money to pay his bills, A queer fel- low, Dick is. Quiet sort, fond of books, never talks about himself, seems to like his own company, stays just long enough to get his mail and load up his burro With provisions, and then he’s off for the mountains again. | He takes a trip to 'Frisco once or twice a year and when he comes back he usually has a lot of old books with him. Gets 'em to read when he's off prospecting, I reckon. Come to think of it, he'd just got back from the city the last time [ seen him.” “How long ago was that?” “About a week—ten days maybe.” “Have you any idea where I could find him?” “Not the least in the world, friend. Were you wanting to see him about something particular?” “Yes,” said Hope, “I want to see him very much indeed.” “Then the best thing you can do, friend,” the storekeeper asserted, “is to sit right down here in Santa Eulalia and wait for him.” . . * . . - The Kern county fair had opened its gates and the people of the county for half a hundred miles around were pouring into Bakersfield in motor cars, in wagons, and on horseback, by train. As 4 o'clock drew near, the crowd deserted these attractions and slowly drifted toward the field where Bob Smith, “the Daredevil of the Sky,” was advertised to give his hair-raising and perilous aeroplane exhibition. As Smith, a slim, wiry built low, clad in the leather garments ot an aviator, was crossing the field from the hangar to his waiting aero plane, he was hailed by a tall young men who, accompanied by a fashi ably dressed woman, had, with ¢ siderable difficulty, pushed his wa; through the crowd. “Hello, Bob!” hailed the strange: evidently an easterner by his dress, “don’t you remember me now th you've become famous?” “By Jove,” exclaimed the aviator, running forward with outstretched hand, “if it isn't Gerald Morton! ‘What on earth are you doing here?” “Oh, I'm spending a few days down the valley, near Santa Eulalia,” Mor« ton replied, a trifle evasively. “I have a little business there that requires my attention. Let me introduce you to my friend, the Countess Ivanoff.” “Mr. Smith,” continued Morton, turning to Olga, “is responsible for my interest in aviation. He taught me to drive a machine when he had a school on Long Island, two years ago.” " “Vive la business?” asked {o] (To Be Continued Tomorrow,)
