interstate commerce commission and later the decision of the United states supreme court If the ling of tariffs can be held lawful and if the interstate commerce commission approves of and encourages such by railroads if a railroad can welsh on its contract and its every obligation then no person is safe in dealing with a railroad com- pany or in making any contract with its officers from the

think it would be a very good thing Of course in so far as its I think there would be no competition 1 think thre would be no competition with the city electric light plant Louis Hartl president and manager Marshfield Brewing do not believe the council will stand for any such price as a thousand for gas as it is away out of sight A dollar would sound better and in some cities where the system has been ing on for years they only ask 80 cents However I am heartily in favor of the proposition and I know the aldermen will investigate the ces paid in other cities before letting a franchise One of the best features of gas is that it cuts down fuel ex- pense particularly in the kitchen I venture to say tha gas at reasonable rates would cut kitchen fuel bills in half We do not need it for light in Marshfield with electric selling at present rates but it would be a fine thing for every other purpose mitted by Frank A Vannedom t H G Hambright cashier First will in consequence receive the prize
