The Recorp sees no .reason why the City of Rossland might not own her own gas plant from the very beginning. No company is going to put in a system and ‘agree to sell out only upon the condi- tions of being well paid for it. No mat- ter how well the interests of the rate- ‘payers are guarded im grantings fran- chise, they will be required to pay hand- somely when the plant is finally taken over. . By all means let the city put in, maintain and operate her own gas works. There is noquestion but the consumer would thereby get beeter rates than a corporation holding a fran- chise would give. © Today the morning Miner pilfered from the Recorp about half of the tele- -gtaph it published. On the front ‘page it has owr account of the Derby, Dewey to sail, Yukon gold output, Fighting at Mindanoa island, Tattoo artist , killed, Custom troubles in Alaska, Electric storm, Battleship Brooklyn injured, Walcott-Walls fight, and the Montreal stock exchange report.
