Recently the City Commission passed a rate ordinance Increasing the gas rate, A few days later a ref­ erendum petition was circulated and far more than enough signers secured asking that the ordinance be repealed or that the new ordinance be submitted to a vote of the citizens. , Since that time the gas question has been getting hotter than the weather. Efforts have been -made to have the petition withdrawn but without avail. I t is said the gas company will go before the public utilities commission if the new ordinance does not stand. In that case#the company will ask for a higher rate, and probably get it, than was asked of council. The Ohio commission has in the past granted most any rate the compan­ ies want, regardless of the rights of the public; This is not the fault of the companies but goes hack to the utility bought, own­ ed and controlled legislatures that pass such laws as permit the public to get soaked on any kind of a plan utility companies want for their financial profit. Xenia will get a dose of its own medicine no matter what the outcome is. An election will cost about $1,500 to the city, twice what it should due to twice as many election .officials as are necessary, and twice as many-preecincts. The* blame cannot be placed on the City Commission, Those who want unvote on the question should not be critized. We live now in a day of referendums. W e cannot deny such when the law makes such a thing legal and for, the use of the tmblier The gas company' is not at fau lt/ It can get a higher rate under a law the public has been trying .to get repealed that the public might have a say in its own affairs. With members 6 f the legislature strut­ ting about with, bulging pockets loaded with profits gathered in the. harvest about the legislative halls, the public Cannot blame anyone but itself. Xenia for a long time has followed a reform political leadership that has profited by the kind of legislation that takes the rights away from the citizens of every municipality in the state.- The utility commission first function­ ed as a board to protect the interests of utility consumers. And then something happened. Profits to legislative members put the companies in power and.the.consumers on the slaughter block, < ' i Xenia has no moral right to complain about utility rates until She repudiates in a no uncertain manner the reform lead- , ers that have reaped-the profit, and today are silent on the all important question of higher gas rates. Higher telephone rates fe ll on Xehians. You never get more than what you pay foij, in gas, telephone rates, or political leadership.

This lesson .shows »s tlie 'transition from the rule by the judges to pie monarchy. For a comprehensive view of -the transition It will be well to make fe survey of chapters eight to eleven. I, The People Demand a King (8:1-5)). , • \ 1. TheR reasons for tills demand. (1) Samuel was Incapacitated by old uge; (2) the unfaithfulness of his ^ons whom he had appointed us hts successors. In this Samuel committed a great blunder, fgr the office of judge was not hereditary, (8) Th^ desire to be like other nations. The sur­ rounding nations tad a king as their leader. They wat ted a king who would go odt and flglu .,their battles lv. 20). 2. Samuel’s behavior under this 1trial (vv. 6-b). He took the matter to the Lord in player. Even though Sam­ uel’s blunders In part brought on this trouble he did the wise thing in taking It’ to the .Lord fa prayer.' The Lord comforted him by assuring him that' , this rejection was not merely Id's re­ jection, but the rejection of the king­ ship of-God, ’ II. Samuel Tells of the Manner of the Kings (vv. 10-1S). He shows them that tliq king will be very enacting and arbitrary in hie dealing with them. 1 , He will take their’ sons and make them to serve in the urtuy add .•do all kinds of hard work on his farm and In his house. He will make slaves of their daughtei’s also. 2. lie will take their lands, even .those Inherited' from their fathers, nnd give them to- Ills favorite officers and.servants. - Not content witb/that lie will take the tenth part of the produce thpt remains and give to them. (II. Samuel’s Protest Disregarded by the People (vv. 10-22), Having made up their minds they deliberately shut their eyes to the truth and rushed madly1into the ex- •periment, . . - ■ IV, "The-King Providentially Pointed ? Out <9:1*10:10).. . , . Saul was sent by his father to search for the asses that had wan­ dered away, splits was quite natural, While Sadi and his father were acting freely in this matter, at the same time God’s sovereign purpose was being carried out, Although difficult to. UU: dersfand, God carries forth His sov­ ereign purpose without Interfering with man's freedom. V, The King Chosen at Mlzpeh (10:17-27). The Lord hail already pointed out to Samuel who should he king and Saul had been anointed. Let us observe: 1. Why Saul was chosen. If they would have a king the Lord would give them the one best suited to All the plpce. He was from Benjamin, a small tribe, which would prevent undue rivalry between Ephraim and Judah, the leading tribes of Israel. He was also chosen because of his personal fitness (v, 23). 2. How. Saul -Was chosen, The method was by lot Sniguel called them together before the Lord, and before the lot was'cast he again re­ monstrated with them -against such action. He showed them the»base In­ gratitude of their rejection of such er God and King who had done so much for them, mid gave them a chunce to forego their rash demand. 3. How the king, was received by the people. Saul knew that the Lord had chosen him, but' through modesty and fear he shrank from the respon- .BlbilUy, When ho was brought forth Samuel presented^ him to the people, assuring them that Saul wds the Lord’s choice. VI, The King Confirmed at Gllgai ,(ch. 11). Soon afier the election at Mlzpeh Uie Ainmqnites made n desperate de­ mand upon the men of Jnhesti-Gifcad. Saul hearing of ll hastily summoned the tribes together for war ami won a remarkable victory. As lie thus proved his ability the people wished to punish the sons of Belial, but Saul forbade them. Samuel took advantage of this auspicious situation and called all the people together at Gllgai where they formally crowned him their king.
