In flooding tie Legislature witt
bills dealing with the regulation Of
the rates Of public utility com.
panies and in trying to substitute
State regulation by O commission
for: municipal regulation. the leg
islative agents of the public service
corporations are merely trying to
muddy the water and confuse leg
islators.
No one wants municipalities to
control the rates Of corporations
which Go not serve them, or to
control tho ru;es. outside of mi-
nicipaI boundaries, Of corporations
which extend over the State.
All that the people of the mu-
inequalities ask is that the mouopo.
lies created by their franchise
grants shall be subject to fair regu-
la,ion by their 'ocn| legislatures.
1t is fair proposition, sound in
principal aud approved by public
opinion. Moreover. the Demo
cratic party is pledged to give the
municipalities this fair measure of
protection.
