BLACK'S AMENDED FRANCHISE.
BuT for the action of Councilman
Hartcnsteln, who wanted "the public"
to havo a chnnco to seo whether it
was a good thing or not, the city
council would have passed an amend
ed franchise, offered by Black, at. tho
session last Monday evening. Unit
ensteln made an appeal for tho pub
licity tho newspapers would give the
matter, and tho eight members who
havo lined up against tho proposed
franchise, submitted by tho company,
consented to let It go over. As a re
sult of the parliamentary proceed
ings tho new ordinance will come up
on its third reading, when the coun
cil meets again.
For somo unaccountnblo reason
Fornstrom, Barnes and E. II. Davis
remained away, and Tuddonham,
Preeco and Hewlett wero tho only
ones favoring tho company's ordi
nance present. Black asked that tho
ordinance pending bo read a second
time by title, which was done, where
upon ho offered an amended ordi
nance, which was read. Ho then mado
the point that the amendment having
been accepted nnd read, was in Itself
the ordinance, and therefore this was
tho third reading. This was a sort of
surprlso to tho other members, but
tho opponents of tho measuro asked
for by the Consolidated wore quick to
take advantngo of tho opportunity,
and the matter so stands.
There was a Httlo snuabblo over
tho right of Mayor Pro Tom. Davis
voting, but ho pulled an opinion from
tho city attorney which declared ho
had tho right, and tho objections
wore of no avail, although Tuddon
ham thought Davis had no moral
right to vote.
The new ordinance Is practically
tho same as the old ono with respect
to tho charges to bo mado for lights,
tho number of lights to bo furnished
tho city, tho power to bo furnished
free and tho rales to bo charged tho
city for power used In excess of tho
nmount furnished free, tho prico of
street car fares and tho cost of books
of tickets being tho siuno ns in tho
original ordinance.
But thero aro somo restrictions and
conditions imposed. In tho first placo
tho llfo of tho franchiso Is limited to
forty-flvo years. That is flvo years
less than tho term asked for. Tho
company must rebuild its lino nnd
oporato cars thereon to Lako Brcozo
on or before December 1, 1905. If It
does not It forfeits all Its franchises
on Second South from Main street
west to tho city limits.
Tho company Is bound to construct
lines either singlo or double-track on
Second West from Eighth to Ninth
South; also on Ninth West, from
Fourth North to tho northern boun
dary of tho city; also from Second
West and Sovonth North along tho
county road to Hot Springs, nnd
thence north to tho city limits. If It
does not It forfeits its 'rights to the
uso of those streets.
Lights for schools, hospltnls, asy
lums, churches and other charitable
Institutions must be furnished at half
price, provided the use of such light
must be reasonable.
Tho transfer of tho lands at tho
mouth of Big Cottonwood canyon Is
in ii do more explicit hi defining the
rights of tho city and tho restrictions
imposed In the old frnnehlso are abol
ished and tho city given more protec
tion. Tho clause relating to improve
ments in lighting or power service Is
also slightly amended.
Tho ordinance will no doubt pass
ns amended. It wns leferred to tho
city attorney, with instructions to re
port nt tho next meeting, although It
was stated by Black that tho city at
torney bad already seen It and passed
upon it mid pronounced it good, he
hnvlug drawn It. As the matter stands
it looks ns if this new ordinance Is
oftoied ns a sort of compromise mid
seeing nothing in it that can bo con
strued ns being against either tho city
or tho Consolidated, wo hope It will
pass and that for forty-flvo years wo
will have n rest. By tho tlmo It ex
pires most of us will havo gone to a
land where overhead wires aro no
longer a nulsnuce mid whero collect
ing fnro twice in n trip of seven miles
will be unknown. This now franchiso
extends tho tlmo of tho present fran
chises only throe years, and posterity
can stnnd it Hint. long without any
trouble. By tho time tho franchise
runs out trolley cars and arc lights
will bo relics of a half forgotten pnst
so what's the difference?
o
WILL CHECK UP McOMIE.
Indications point to tho stopping of
Justice McOmlo from rendering Judg
ments ngalnst any hut citizens of his
own precinct, or thoso who were citi
zens nt tho tlmo of contracting tho
bills, for debt. Justlco McOmlo lives
at Murray, and has been doing busi
ness for Luke, tho notorious collection
agent whom many peoplo do not like,
and with good reason. Very recently
Luko sued a man in McOmlo's court
and judgment was rendered. Now tho
defendant has stopped matters by an
Injunction nnd under tho Inw passed
at tho last session of tho legislature,
it is said by attorneys who know, that
tho Murray court Is likely to bo
knocked galloy west. In this connec
tion it may bo said that slnco his qual
ifying for ofllco Justlco Dana Smith
hns not hnd one enso filed in his court
by Luke, thus showing that tho Httlo
chap does not desire any ensos tried
hero, but prefers to make peoplo
trouble and additional expenso by tak
ing them seven miles down tho road.
Luko Is very foxy. Tlmo was when ho
used to got roasted day after day by
tho dally papers, but slncc.ho has bo
gun advertising In thorn, no matter
what ho does Is allowed to pass un
noticed and nil tho notlco ho gots Is
that written by himself which nppears
accompanied by tho greatly flattering
and highly exaggerated cut represent
ing him as "manngcr" of tho concern.
