Mr. Newhouse has furnished ample
evidence Of. his, good faith in applying
for d lighting franchise, and his appIi-
cation deserves serious and friendly
consideration. His ability to carry out
his obligation is Undoubted. so there re-
mains for discussion only the terms on
which he asks franchise.
He agrees tn furnish light at 10 cents
Per kilovvatt hour. a heavy reduction
from the "a cents now charged by the
old company. and the same price the
old corporation now offers as part of its
payment for the dfty-year franchise
II goes without saying that the city
would not have secured the offer of a
lower price if Mr.. Newhouse had not
come into the field OPPORTUNITY.
Second, Ny. NewhoUse offers to pay
the city one per cent Of the gross earn
ings Of his plant. He figures this is
equivalent TO 10 ar II per cent Of net
earnings, and as matter of business
policy the city could not afford to make
contract on the basis Of net earnings,
because they are variable while gross
earnings do not depend upon the
amount Of liked charges ar operating
expenses. At one per cent. the city's

early period of operation. but they
would Increase with the extension of

have ample protection in this phase
OF any franchise, and Mr. Newhouse
probably would concede the necessity
for such protection il it should also
preclude any possibility of unjust at

reasons.
On the question of a municipal owner

might be an obstacle because Of the
extent of the plant and its connection
with Mr.. NewhOUse's private light and

1t would be desira bic for the city to
have an option on such part of the

PROTECTING THE INSURED.

One good effect of the present agita-
ton of the insurance question has been
a general awakening on the part of
public officials who desire to do the
right thing if it is properly brought to
their attention.
Massachusetts bears the reputation
Of a state that scrutinizes carefully
all legislation bearing on insurance. and
that circumstance, with the added fact
that the general discussion Of the ques-
ton cannot have failed to enlist the
attention Of the vigiIant executive of
the state. made this year a peculiarly
Inappropriate time TO attempt to mani
pulate the insurance laws of Massachu-
sets.
\ bill designed to permit a certain
company to transact two classes of
business was passed by the Massachu-
sets legislature and was promptly We
tOed by Gov. Douglas. In his veto mes
sage he says:
AN act of this nature seeks to VIC
late the principles of our insurance
laws. which have been created fer the
proper protection of the public, and it
is particularly Objectionable in view
Of its attempt to give a special few
privileges denied to citizens at large
Decidedly, this is not the year to at
tempt to juggle with the insurance laws
with d view to increasing the powers of
the companies at the expense of the
public, and those who contemplate such
action should not forget that the eyes
of thoroughly aroused public are up
on them.
