Wholesale increases over Ohio arp planned, fylany communities are now listed for new rates that are pending before the Utility Com­ mission, , ; ‘ The Cincinnati Times-Star Tuesday stated that a letter had gone out to company stockholders to urge Ohio Senate rejection of Governor Donahey’is new appointments to the Utility Commission and thus hold over the present friendly board that has been boosting rates. The Bell Telephone Co, claims a property valuation in Ohio of something like $157,000,000 for making new,rates, but for. many million less for taxation, Farm land was recent­ ly increased in value by the State Tax Commission to an 80^ basis yet the Bell Telephone Company is t^xed on a basis of what is said to be less than half the valuation claimed for the making of rates. The Bell Telephone Company has declared war in Ohio and will fight to hold the.members of the present commission that are friendly in power. Gov. Donahey promised to name new men. Candidate Myers Y . Cooper made a similar pledge »o. the eleetprate, and the utility interests knifed the Republi­ can nominee knowing that a Republican Senate would be forced .to confirm Cooper’s appointees*.*while the,party whip could be used to force Senators to reject Donahey‘s appoint ments. - ■ The questionds whether the Bell Telephone .Company is greater than the State of Ohio and how many: State Senators want to wear the Bell Telephone collator represent the citi- zens of the state? . .

The Bell Companv also plans ‘to zone every county anc! limit county service to a few. miles. Ajpatron in one side o f the county would be forced to pay a toll charge to get a patron in another zone in the same county. This plan is being con­ sidered now by the Utility Commission,4according to reports. fiti Christmas Dream 1 and It Alt Came True 1 ft WAS such a beautiful tittle ! darling that his mother looked at him and forgot what she whs going to say, when she was About to give him n lecture about pulling the cat’s tail. And when lie went with her to the hospital with a hnsket of flowers, and passed up and down the wards with a smile am) a Christinas flower for every sufferer, they felt ah though an angel hud appeared aguin. It was.In his cozy room at homo that lie had a dream house. There he hud day dreams, as well as night dream*.. There he entertained “Mr. Bethlehem," and “Betty Bosbuekle,” and her: brother “David." On the chimney shelf was a lunch for Santa Claus, and near It was a letter that registered a few of his hopes. He preferred chocolate elephants .rather than, chocolate horses. ‘ as< they amouuted to more. He conferred with hi# white rabbit ruascot about the chipmunk skin that'served as a rug for‘ his garage, built for the coming automobile. There must have been a radlols In the room, it was so full of happy thoughts and sweet, faint sounds. "Listen,” lie said to Mr, Beth­ lehem. "I hear themsinging." "Davy,” he cried, “he’s most here.
