CITY HAS POWER
 TO REGULATE RATES

A case of great interest to cities not owning water plant has been just decided by the United States supreme court. It was styled the Knoxville Waterworks Company, plaintiff in error, against the mayor and alder men of the city of Knoxville, Tenn, and involved the right of the city council to change the price asked for water by the company.
 The council passed an ordinance re- ducing the charge for water. The waterworks company had contract made with previous ty administra tion by which it claimed the right to raise or reduce the price of water at it's pleasure to any charge tbat it citizens paid under protest the price demanded by the company. One citi- zen refused to pay, and on the com pany starting to cut off the supply a mandamus suit was begun in the cir cult court to compel the company to furnish water at the rates fixed by the ordinance. The lower court de- cided in favor of the company, and the city appealed to the state supreme court, which reversed the action of the lower court. The company then took the case to the United States su- preme court on the ground that the ordinance was invalid because it in- fringed the right of contract, but that state supreme court.-Little Rock Gazette.
