The contention is that the defendants
have entered and constructed their system
on the plaintiffs territory without their
consent or authority, and against their
wishes.
It seems the plaintiffs have in their in
corporation articles clause empowering
them to build and erect power plants,
tramways and lighting systems, and as
the county commissioners are alleged to
have given the San Poll company exclusive
rights for erecting an electric light sys-
tom. the plaintiffs object to IT, and take
this means for redress.
The enforced removal OF the poles and
wires now in use would allow any COM
many to enter the field for water and light
