BIG DEBATE ON i
THE FRANCHISE
PROPOSED FRANCHISE FOR
ELECTRIC SERVICE TAKEN
CP SECTION BY SECTION.
-
t
“Alittlelearning is a dangerous
thing” is a phrase whose truth was
borne home to the minds of observers
last night when the franchise applied
for by tne Seward Electric Company
came up for discussion section by i
section. This opening statement is
not used in any derogatory sense—
that word derogatory is probably
spelt right—but is used to suggest '
that a small knowledge of any subject
leads the best of tfs into queer errors
—just like using that word deroga
tory.
The meeting last night opened by
the reading of a communication from
the Engineering commission object
ing to the dumping of garbage around
Lowell creek and suggesting that the
ooint near the powder house be used
instead. Referred to the Health com
mittee.
The city engineer’s report accepted
the work done by Contractor Bade
and the report was accepted subject
to the action of the street committee.
A resolution to accept the contract as
practically finished was laid over at
the request of Chamberlin.
L. V. Ray came next as the at
torney for John Dallainc and others
and asked that the date on which
taxes become delinquent be postponed.
Mr. Ray showed that by advancing
the time of delinquency this year tli%
council had actually added one month
to two years. That is, a month this
year was included in the last fiscal
year and taxes would have to be paid
twice for it. He declared that the
advance of the delinquent period
made it impossible for property own
ers who live in the east to meet their
taxes in time. He also suggested that
fifty per cent of the taxes only be
collected right away and that the re
maining fifty per cent be not collect
ed until February. S. 0. Morford
made a similar request and showed
what a benefit such a course of action
would be to the people, but City At
torney Coppernoll declared that if the
council give a receipt for fifty pci
cent of the taxes it might waive its
right to collect the remainder. “If
the council let the delinquent period
pass I will not be responsible” said he.
Mr. Ray chided him for suggesting
that the tax payers represented by
Ray were not acting in good faith,
and also suggested that he never saw
the ordinance advancing the date of
delinquency as it had not been pub
lished. Chamberlin said that as the
council could remit penalties why
could it not make other change*.
Frank Youngs suggested that thw
time be extended thirty days. “Our
people have always paid their taxes
faithfully” said Mr. Youngs, with
that usually keen insight which
pierces cleanly to the kernel ofr
everything. 44It is only fair assent
ed Mayor Myers, and it may be said
in passing that Myers himself is al
ways fair. Coppernoll suggested
doubt as to the ability of the council
to alter the date of delinquency and

the matter was referred to him and
will be brought up at a special meet
ing. A special stenographer had been
called to the meeting, evidently to in
scribe in unimpeachable verbatim
form for the benefit of posterity the
words of wisdom that fell from the
silver tongue of some transcendant
genius or boy orator who graces a
legislative chair in our eminent
Bundesrath. And then, with im
mortality staring the statesmen in
the face, the question of the franchise
arose and hushed the audience to an
awed silence. The fate of Seward
was at stake and around the edges of
the legislative halls sat the watch
dogs of the people’s future, ready to
spring with oratorical fervor at the
throat of any conspirator against
the weal of our fair city, already, yet.
Dr. Daggett began by objecting to
giving permission to the Electric
company to put up more poles than
was necessary. He apparently feared
a diabolical plot to establish a leaf
less forest in the neighborhood of the
Northern corner. “Never heard of a
company putting up more poles than
it needed’' opined Jack Chovin and,
of course, the matter ended there,
having served merely the purpose of
showing whatever animus might
exist. As the novelist says, we shall
ask our dear readers to let’us digress
for a moment to say what is the mat
ter with giving that franchise to man
like Jack Chovin who knows the busi
ness, and let him have some latitude.
Al Chamberlin wanted to know why
all other applicants for a franchise
had wished for the meter system and
the present applicant wished a flat
rate and Chovin reminded him that
the other applicants always fell
through. Gentlemen from the audi
; ence, Messrs. Hettel and Winstadt to
wit, entered the discussion. The
former made some statement and
Chovin contradicted him. Hettel was
agin the government of the Electric
! company all the way through and he
was ably reinforced by Mr. Winstedt,
who delivered a telling speech at some
length and when the council gave him
the ghost of a show. S. 0. Morford,
the attorney for the company, ex
plained that the franchise had not
been prepared by the company but h>
the council itself. Ho agreed with
the suggestion that the franchise
ought to contain a clause making the
terms fair ty) the company and the
consumer. Indeed, Mr. Morford took
the wind out of the sails of the com
pany baiters at every turfn by his ap
parent desire to be eminently fair.
! He was convinced that the company
can afford to cut down the rates when
busiiuss is better. Mr. Chamberlin,
who also showed a most commendable
spirit of fairness, although evidently
very careful in the interests of the
people, moved that the franchise per
mit all people to install meters who
wanted to do so, but Mr. Morford
declared with the small business at
present it would be impossible to do
; so. He and others declared that the
adjustment of rates provided by the
franchise were more equitable al
though in some cases a negligibly
small increase occurs. Chamberlin
i again moved that meters be given to
all who ask for them, the consumers
i depositing the price of such meters
! and it was also moved that a readjust
ment of rates be provided for when
1 they become unjust to either party.
I No action was taken on the passage
; of the franchise last night. Its fate
is hard to foretell. Without offense
let it be suggested that personal
animus be suppressed and that the
consumers and the company be treat
ed fairly and squarely.
