' Referring again to' the matter of local Insurance rates we venture to suggest that a committee from the council or from the Commercial club or from both, should be appointed to ascertain what reductions the peo ple of Bend are now entitled to and when they will be put into effect. One of the potent reasons for vot ing the bond issue last year to pro vide fire equipment, quarters for the department and the first year's main tenance was the reduction in insur ance rates that would follow. The bond money has now been spent for Its intended purposes. Nothing re mains to be done so far as that fund. Is concerned. It is gone where it was planned to go and the people are being taxed to pay interest on the bonds. If they are also entitled to collect, our fire protection being what it is, it amounts to double tax ation. We understand that local insur ance agents agree that a reduction in rates is due now, indeed, has been due for some weeks, and that the only reason it is not made is the fact that the installation of new fire hyd rants, now planned, will make a still further reduction possible. To make one reduction, they say, and then another will make more-or less trou ble for the companies, as represent ed by their rating bureaus, and they want to wait until the hydrants are in and then lower rates' . . . - The objection to this. position is that it takes into account the inter ests of the insurance companies only. The people's interests are not con sidered. And while it is to be ex pected that the companies' represent , atives should do . what they can to save money for them it is also to be expected that the -city council will be alert and active in. efforts to save money for the people, i With only one interest to serve, that of America, the American legion is fast becoming one of the greatest single forces for good in the whole United States. When the air mail service is start ed we shall probably have to put our house numbers on the roof. Petrograd seems to be having Its ups and downs these days. 1 Fifteen Years Ago j (From the columns of the Bend Bulletin, of October 21, 1904). Adam Kotzman has 16 acres of deeded land about 15 miles south of Fossil, on which last summer's water spouts uncovered a lot of excellent coal. The historic old Slsemore place has at length changed hands. Uncle John Sisemore last Monday sold out completely to Dr. W. S. Nichol, who came to Bend about two weeks ago from Oklahoma. Dr. C.-W. Merrill is formulating plans for a hospital at Bend.' He expects to have it In running order early next year. -The switchboard for the Bend tele phone exchange, has arrived, and the work of installing the plant Is under way. It will start out with 20 instru ments. H. C. Ellis has charge of the getting out of poles for the local lines. The grading crew for the automo bile .line (Central Oregon Transpor- ation Co.,) is at work this side of Forest's. . It is expected that . the grade for the entire line will be com pleted into Bend within the next three weeks. The line to Bend, how ever, will not be in operation before December, and the Prlnevllle branch may be little later. Mr. and Mrs. John W. Taggart and two daughters spent the past week in Bend. They have closed up their affairs in Wisconsin, and hereafter will make their home in Oregon. , O'Kano's bowling alley will be open to the public tomorrow. I. F. Shearer brought in last Sun day some specimens of outs raised in the Sisters neighborhood, that rudely upset the theory thut such cannot be grown there. Of course they could not be grown when no body tried it. Preparations fer a city water ser vice are rapidly upproiichiiig the point of active construction, and un oltlctent plant will be In operation help before many weeks puss. Employees' Initiative.
