 from all competition and there are
 only two ways to control them. one
 is to have unrestricted competition
 and the other appropriate government control The people of Connecticut to- day have supinely surrendered her rights to thes monopolies. The state has subscribed to the theory of monopo- ly in railroads, trolleys, gas, water and power plants and this question was no longer a field for debate. But show me the man., said he, that condemns the proposition that with monopoly should go reasonable and ! intelligent regulation It is only a fiction of government that the general
 assembly can regulate these fields of endeavor. Their constitution is not 1 such. as to allow it. I do not say , this as a reflection on the assembly ] at all It is not adapted to such ser- i vice. He rehearsed the merging of
 eight trolley companies into one, hav-
