OIL BURNERS MAY NOW BE HAD CHEAP trie of Oil Goes Up and Now tha Oil Burner Are Hanging" on the Fences. OH, TANKS ARE CHEAP, TOO Last fall it cost $100 to har an oil burner Installed. The $100 paid for 600-galloa shoetiron tank that was burled out In the back yard near the alley line, and alio for th burner that was put Into the furnace. The man who had the $100 and would not have an oil burner put In was looked upon as a cheap akate. The man who did have the necessary $100 and had a burner Installed was the envy of his less fortunate and poorer neighbor. Now there has been a square face about In the relative positions of the men who put in oil burners and those who did not. The man who did not have the money to install a burner nd the one who had the money, but invested in coal instead of oil, as a rule, has the laugh upon the neigh bor who put In and tried to heat his home by burning oil. It is not known to an absolute r- tanty, but It Is asserted that during Sep tember. October and November of laat year, between 800 and boo oil burner were Installed In Omaha home. Ther wr ao many of thm that after the owners eomenced to burn oil, th fumes from the burning fluid permeated th air In very part of the city. At on tlm ther was talk of an ordinance against burn ing oil because of th objectionable odor that came from th chimneys. ' Th peo ple who burned oil roes up In their wrath and quickly put a quietus on th pro posed plana. They wer able to convince the city council that. Ilk th odor from gasoline burned In automobiles, th odor from burning oil carried with It a certain degree of aristocratic standing and that no Inteference would be brooked. . . I rase Haa Died Oat. Aa it la now. ther la no necessity of the pasaage of an ordinance of the kind Ulkod of arly In th fall. The oil burner craa awept over the city with th rapid ity of tha Belgian hare raising eras of a few years ago, and It died out almost aa quickly. Now th majority of th men and women who wer loudest In their ad vocacy of ott aa a fuel for heating, hav gone back to good old coal and all along the residence streets of th city, oil burn ers are hanging out on the fence, or hav been aold to th Junk man, to later be cast up Into munitions of war for th fighting armies of Europe. On many hundreds of lots In th real- oemla' sections or umana ar great being graves of giants, but they are not, In them ar simply burled Iron tanks. twIv feet In length and three feet In diameter. Th market prto of these tanks Is 3S h, but ther a whole lot of them that the owner would.be willing to sail at 110 to 14 each, f. o. b on th alley line. Rome Work Alt RigrkC. Bom of th olid burners hav worked to th perfect satisfaction of the owners of th houses wher they hav been Installed but this number has been small com pared with th number that hav gon bad. Whan th weather was warm they worked wall, but when th cold spell of a week or so ago cam they war given th test that was necessary to determine whether or not they would deUver th goods. In a large number of Instanoas ty failed to mak good and alno then than hav been ooralng out of furnaosa at a much mor rapid rat than they were put In. A large number of lnstanoes hav beeti reported of parti having oil burner that would hat th houses when ttfe temperature outside was 30 f o 60 degree above, but when th temperature got down to U to 13 degrees below they sim ply quit and loafed on th Jobs, leaving th occupants of th homes In tha cold, or clustered about th kitchen rang. Prlo ot Oil AStsion. It Is asserted that a number of the oil burners that havs been taken out hav been removed on account of th prlo of oil having advanced. In th early tall th people who put In burners con tracted with th oil oompantes for their supply of oil at cent per gallon. Subsequently oil was advanced a can and then another cent, aad those who wer without contract wer f oroad to pay th high prlo. On oontentlon Is that the majority of thos having their burn ers removed wer thos who wer forced to pay th top prlo for oil. However, vn at the 4 cants per gal lon contract price, oil has proved aa ex pensive fuel, for tho who burnad It.. Even when th weather was not cold, th oil bill for each twenty-four hours were about 11.60 and when th weather wa sever aod mor oU was turned Into the burner, th dally fuel bill Jumped up SO oents. At any rat, ther are a lot of oil burners and oil tanks about th city that can be bought cheap. la most lnstanoes th parties who put them la have them on their hands. They war ao anxious to get them Installed that they did not aak for, or require a guaraate. simply say ing to aom agent, "get that burner la as quickly as you oan and your money lg ready."

T -U I fiAHf WHAT i SAID J LOOK INTO STREET CAR FRANCHISES Corporation Counsel Lambert Sayi Two Territorial Grants Will Expire Next Year. TO MAKE AN INVESTIGATION Corporation Counsel Lambert haa been authoriied by tha city council to proceed with an exhaustive inves tigation of the status of the (ran chlseg tender which the Omaha ft Council Bluffs Street Railway com pany It operating. A cursory examination of th records leads Mr. Lambert to believe that th territorial grant given to the Omaha Hora Car company in 1867 will expire January I of next year, and another grant to th Omaha Motor company will hav expired on July t of next year. Me told th council committee of th whole that h believes th grant to th Omaha Cable and Tramway company will expire in 1928.. In View of what he believes to be two expirations of franchises next year, he suggested to th commissioners th advisability of going Into th matter thoroughly at thla time. Mr, Lambert anticipates th contention of the preaent company wilt be on th basis of a perpetual franchise, as indi cated in a suit tried In th state su preme court Lea-lslatar Take Hast,' Th gist of th situation as presented by th corporation counsel to th com missioners was: "In 18OT a territorial grant waa given to th Omaha iora Car company, this purporting to be an exclusive right for fifty years, with the Stipulation. that at the expiration of the franchla all tracks, depots and equip ment should revere to th city. In 1818 a forty-year grant was given to th cable company. Th legislature paaaad an act permitting th oonaolldatlon of tha separate companies. The Omaha Street Railway company took over th hora car and cable companies. In its consolidation act th legislature speci fied that nothing ln the act should Im pair or effect any existing right of re version held by the city." It is understood that Mr. Lambert will aubmit to the council a full report la writing as soon as he shall have In vestigated all phases of the situation.
