All the Crnck Players.
Sam Reynolds and Jack Hughes worked
their way Into the soml-flnal round ot
the annual tBate golf tournament Friday
morning by defeating I. J. Dunn and W.
31. Folsom. respectively.
The neynoMs-Dunn match created tho
most interest, a large bunch of enthus
iasts making the entire eighteen holes
with the pair. Neither Reynolds nor Dunn
Ployed winning golf, which was largely
due to the high wind and the soft ground.
The brisk wind persisted In blowing drives
fiom their original course and the soft
ground caused considerable digging up
of the turf.
Both players got a good start, but fell
down when they got on the Inside course.
On tho twelfth hole both woro forced to
take seven strokes. The pitch up the
hill was responsible for tho poor score,
as the boll repeatedly stuck on tho rise.
The bogey for tho hole Is three.
Reynolds got a good lead on Dunn on
the outside and made it six up on the
thirteenth hole. The outcome was, a sur
prise to most of the spectators, as Dunn
beat Wepponer of the Happy Hollow club
Thursday one up by making a twenty
five foot putt on the eighteenth hole when
Weppener laid a stymie on his ball.
Jack Hughes easily beat Bill Folsom
of Lincoln six up and five to play.
Folsom was distinctly off his game and
was easy pickings for the Field club
veteran. The Lincoln man drove the ball
Into trees and bunkers on every hole on
the outside course and played but little
better on the Inside. .
Doc Sumner 'Winn.
H. C. Sumney beat Frank Hale two
up and one to go. Hale was not playing
tiue to form, while Suraney, although
not plujing up to form, mado some ex
cellent drives.
Harold Johnson, the youthful' Field club
shark, took the measure of A. V. Klns
lcr, the last of the Country club entries,
by a score ot five up and' tour to go. At
the end of the ninth hole Johnson barely
had Klnsler at o'no up, but when he
got on the Inside course ho picked up
and beat the Country club man on the
fourteenth hole. Johnson made one of the
i retttest short drives seen on the Field
club course this year when he scooped
tho ball out of the bunker on seven and
'drove It, ninety yards onto tho green In
position for an easy putt.
Klnsler rattled the youth at the start
by his rapid Ore conversation, but John
son soon got used to It and Ignored tho
remarks of the older player.
V. A. Redlck and Paul Scott worked

The proposed compromise gns franchise to bo
voted upon August 19th specifies that for tho next
25 years the price of gas SHALL NOT EXCEED
ONE DOLLAR.
The right to regulate future gas rates by con
tract is vested in tho Mayor and City Council. The
contract period shall not EXCEED ten years, and
may be mado as much shorter as the City determines.
Tho rate regulatory features of tho proposed
franchise are based upon the ASSUMPTION that
gas production costs will DECREASE in tho future.
In this event, lower gas rates are anticipated from
timo to time.
The trend of gas rates in America for yenrs has
been downward. Lower rates havo been mado pos
sible by progressive manufacturing and commercial
methods, hugo additions to capital investment, and
tremendously increased sales of gas service.
How long this tendency can bo maintained is
now a question in the minds of gas operators. For
several years tho trend of PRODUCING COST has
been UPWARDS. Every olement in tho COST of gas'
making and distribution is advancing sharply in
price.
The unprecedented increase in gas marketed
during the last ten years was duo largely to tho fact
that tho field HAD NOT BEEN DEVELOPED.
GAS OUTPUT GREW IN Tins PERIOD MANY
TIMES FASTER THAN THE INCREASE IN POPULATION.
Point." Present consumers will not increaso their
gas consumption becauso of lower rat6s. Practically;
everyono who can and will uso gas is now served.
Additional business must come principally from
ADDITIONAL PEOPLE IN THE, COMMUNITY.
i
Tho chief materials of gas production in Omaha
aro coke, gas oil, steam coal and labor.
Within a fow years prices as paid by tho Omaha
Gas Company have advanced approximately as fol
lows: Coke has advanced 27 per cent.
Gas oil has advanced 65 per cent.
Steam coal has advanced 35 per cent,
Labor has advanced 20 per cent.
The high quality of gas which tho Company is
required to produce demands tho best material and
the most expert supervision and labor. ,
Tho effect of INCREASED TAXES upon local
gas cost will bo dealt with in another advertisement.
Viewing all conditions as the Gas Company is
compelled to meet them, ' tho Company assumes a
business hazard of largo proportions when it agrees
to sell gas at a prico not greater than one dollar dur
ing tho next 25 years.
Simply becauso PAST conditions havo mado
possiblo a descending scale of gas costs and gas
rates, is no roason why such a movement can be continued.
