BRITISH MUNICIPALITIES
PROVIDING POWER

Consul Albert Halstead of Bir-
| mingham writes as follows in re-
gard to the conduct OF the electric
light and power plant owned by that
British Industrial city:
The electrical supply committee of
the Birmingham city council has
been authorized TO expend S97,s3O
for the purchase of motors. The
idea is to increase the use of elec-
tricity as a motive power among
small manufacturers by permitting
them to hire motors from the city
for power purposes. This, / believe,
is new departure in municipal bust
ness activity. At the same time
there has been a reduction of the
scale of charges Tor electricity for
power purposes. d.
birmingham has expended several
million dollars in erecting It's mod
ern electric power-houses. II fur
nishes electricity not only for light
ing and power purposes, but for the
electric streetcars, which the city
also operates. An additional plant
has to be provided at an estimate of
$1,125,54S. There is friendly rival
ry between the electric supply COM
mittee and the gas committee of the
Birmingham city council for business
each committee endeavoring to pro-
mote the use of its lighting and pow
er facilities. The rivalry is keen.
and it would seem as IL It should be
of advantage to both committees by
leading to increase in the use OF their
supplies.

Express rates throughout the state
may be reduced by the railroad con-.
roission shortly as the result of an
investigation being carried on by
that body at the present time.
Complaints have been received
from various parts of the state from
time to time claiming that the rates
charged are exceptionally exhorbi-
tant, but as the railroad commission
has been busy with other matters,
they have been unable to make any
Investigation thus far. E. Z. Miller,
the commissions rate clerk, Is en-
gagged In gathering data and compil-
ing comparative schedules. After
this preliminary work is completed
the commission will go very careful
ly to work and from present indioa-
tions- big cut in the, rates will be
ordered.
The schedules in rates from other
state. thus far secured. shows that
the rates in Oregon are extremely ex-
eessive. and this tends TO show dis
elimination, and ii is on the claim
of discrimination that the commits
sion hopes to effect the reduction.
The railroad commission is in re-
ceipt OF a communication from Chas.
p. Church of Portland, which prom
ises TO wind up In the same litiga-
tlon as that which Is now pending
before the circuit court here, where
In the towns OF Milwaukee and Oak
Grove are making a fight for lower
rates.
Church, In his complaint, states
that the Oregon Electric Railway
we're made a present OF 27
town lots In consideration OF a prom
ise that a convenient station would
be put in at the Alder Springs addi-
tion to Portland and that a cent
rate would be inaugurated as well
as commutation rates. This. Church
states. the company has totally failed
10 do. charging a fiat rate OF / o cents
each way and having installed a sta
ton at n great distance from Alder
Springs.
IL is also claimed that Church
sold a great deal OF land TO real
estate dealers throughout Portland
with the understanding that the g.
cent fare would Immediately go into
effect in addition 10 the commuta-
tion concessions promised. These
real estate men. In turn, made many
sales with the understanding. and
row they have notified Church that.
unless he secures the performances
Of the promises. he will be made a
party 10 a damage suit against the
companies. The railroad
will be notified by the COM
mission and after their answer has
been received. a date will be set for
he hearing.
The sait OF the Travellers Protee-
i've association against the Southern
Pacific and other railways in this
