The result was a sur-| prise to many, as a majority of the| members of the board at last week’s | meeting seemed satisfied with the 90 cent rate. | When the matter of fixing a min- imum quality and a maximum price for gas was brought up, Attorney Sam- uel Knight was given the privilege of | | the floor and made a brief address. | He said the final passage of the pro- posed ordinance would be a great in- justice to the company and asked the | to make a more thorough investigation of the figures presented. would be only just matter to the committee, in order that submit a rate which would be fair to the committee, fair to the Supervisors, fair to the company and fair to the it might be given an opportunity lo‘f VOTE IS A TIE. 1 | members of the board in all fairness| | | He said it to resubmit the | consumers. ! | | | In accordance with his request, Su- pervisor Boxton moved that the ordi- | nance be referred back either to the committee on artificial lights or a com- | mittee of the whole, or both.

He consid- ered it just to everybody. The motion ! was lost by the following vote: Ayes—Alpers, Bent, Boxton,. Finn, Lunstedt, Rea, Sanderson.

The question of its validity is still before the courts and in all probabiiity the crdipance adopted vesterday will also be the subject of a legal battle.
