Neb., Aug. 14.-(Bpeclal.)- Tho reported great falling oft In the per capita cost of running tho state peniten tiary has been found to be a mistake. Instead of tho per capita cost being JK.78, It should be tl32.lt. This difference was caused by the failure to add tho Insig nificant sum of $50,000, which had been reported In the wrong column, nnd Colonel Presson, who figured up tho Items, was so Interested in the picture ot September Morn, which ho discov ered in the coat-of-armn of tho stato. tlat he did not dlscovor the $,000 until after tho statement had been published.

The Is The YEARS, as the present franchise has more than 5 years to run. Franchises of 25 years are defined as SHORT-TERM franchises by all authorities on the subject. The necessity of a franchise to a public service company is of a PRACTICAL NATURE. The banker is unwilling to finance the construction needs of, service companies . unless their legal right to occupy the streets is reasonably secured fpr, a definite period of time. The investor is unwilling- to place his savings and capital in service companies unless he has reasonable assurance that his money is SAFE. Service organizations cannot preserve their credit or raise money for necessary enlarge ments and extensions without reasonable assuranpe that they will be permitted to operate. THESE ARE FACTS. Under conditions that exist and confront us, theories cannot change them. If it were possible for us, without a franchise, to operate and TO FINANCE the con-. ' stant requirements of a gas property serving a growing city, why do you suppose we should take the trouble to convince YOU and ourselves that we need such an agreement with the city? The objectors to the rate-reduction franchise would be among the first to deny our right to operate without a franchise. The fact that we need a franchise in order to secure and invest more than $1,000,000 in enlargements and extensions during the next fivexears, IS NOT OF OUR CHOOSING. The franchise to be voted on next Tuesday guarantees $1.00 gas at once, means an ac tual saving to gas users of more than $700,000 during the next 5 years ALONE, gives the city the right to regulate future gas rates and will enable the gas company to construct $1,000,. 000 worth of enlargements and extensions to growing districts during the next five years. The gas company hopes to do business in Omaha for a long time. It wants to perform its work well. It can't serve the community properly unless it makes the costly enlargements and extensions demanded by a growing city. It cannot make these additional investments unless it has a reasonable franchise extension. The gas company is an important part of this community. Omaha's future is its future. It can discharge its duties far better in peace than in quarreling with the city and gas users. Warfare is costly to public and company alike. It PREVENTS the company from secur ing new capital, making extensions, getting more business, maintaining liberal methods and also PREVENTS rate-reductions. Tho success and permanency of our business lie in the faithful performance of our obli gations to the people of this community. CAN WE BE JUSTLY CRITICISED FOR STRIVING OPENLY, FRANKLY AND'' LEGITIMATELY FOR THE THINGS THAT ARE NECESSARY FOR US TO FULFIL OUR OBLIGATIONS AND PERFORM OUR WORK PROPERLY? We are asking for nothing but fair and reasonable treatment. , OMAHA GAS COMPANY Smith waa back In thr game for r.rand Island and R"t three singles out of fo'ir times at but ffcore: FHKMOKT BRAND IpHANP AB.H.O.A.K.
