GARVIN’S CORNER BY REV. JOSEPH L. lor of the First Ch MY INTERVIEW WITH WE CAME TO CLASP HANDS fm the Seattle Athletic club. He was reading The Star, where an ubiquitous reporter had contrasted our views of life. 1 FOUND HIM TO be a young man, 29 years old,eclean looking, neatly dressed, with a grip like a vise and an arm like a gnarled limb. His eyes hold a level gaze. HIS TALK WAS SLANGY, but it was direct and well chosen. He knew his world, and bubbled over with ambition. He told me about his home and fights. FIGHTING IS HIS BUSINESS, For 15 years he has been at it, ham- mer and tongs. ed 17 times in 18 minutes. He didn't mind. He was after some- ; He had won a champion- ship of the world and earned $250, . From a crass business view, he might be called a success. BATTLING 18 HIS BIRTH NAME. His father’s joke is that he was born fighting and has been at) it ever since, and he says, “Didn't I give him a good name?” What- ever Is in a name certainly must be brought out. Surely the name fits this man. BORN IN DENMARK, on Inde- pendence day, June 5 (Yes, Den- mark has one, too), he won his belt on Independence day in America, Once he was floor-| GARVIN, B. D., M.

Joe Gans, his rival, died be Hevnig in the Christian's hope.

The people—I do not mean the politictans—the peo ple are grateful to The Star for ad-| vocating their stde of the various questions that have come up ip the past. But there Is one important matter yet untouched, at least it is unsolved as yet. I refer to the exorbitant charged by the Sunset Telephone company. Some offices are p. aying | from $7.00 to $8.00 per month per} while there is an ordinance rates rate at $5.00 per month for each | phone. Let me quote from ordi- nance No 0, approved Septem ber 27, 1894, “Be it ordained by the City of Seattle as follows Section 1. Maxtmum Telephone Charges: That beginning with the date July 1, 1894, and thereafter, it shall be unlawful to charge any greater sum for the use of ‘tele- phones per month than the follow ing, viz: For the use of one tele- phone, used for business, placed in offices or in mercantile houses, within the limits of the city of Se- attle, for the period of one month, Ove dollars ($5.00). And for resl- dences $3.00. A penalty for a vio- lation of this ordinance works a forfeiture of the rights and privi- leges to operate a telephone sys- tem.” Ordinance No, 4985, passed in 1898, is the one under which the Sunset company 1s now operating, and makes no provision as to maxi mum rates, and yet the former ordi- pane has not been repealed. There can be no legal reason for forcing the people to pay more than as pro- vided in ordinance No. 3530. There is no doubt that the Sunset people had a hand in drawing both ordi- nances, but as a legal proposition T am of the opinion that our courts would hold it to be unlawful to charge more than Is named in ordi- nance No. 8530, This case is almost identical in principle with the case of the New York Gas company, which had been charging $1.00 for gas, when an rate of 80 cents.
