PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION

There is current in some quarters, says a correspondent of the Courant ..the notion that the State Legislature Gs body is able to deal with the puD- . lie service corporations-that it needs no special body like a commission ti tio its work" the argument being that a body which can organize and clothe with power commission must have still greater power than it's crea- tr.c.
 \ somewhat similar argument W3s lately made by Ex-Lieut. Gov. Lake who is slated for the next R"putlican nomination for Governor by the F>uike- ley-paige- Hawley- Rogers combination In substance. he declared in favor of public utilities commission, limited il power however to the Investigation ot complaints and to the enforcement of ex:stiI,gs@Iaws and leavirg to the Leg islatuJe the, pawef of remedying abuses. This is not the general idea Of the proper functions of a public utilities commission: it is. in fact. ex- actly what is desired by the corpora tions. in the event of the creation of a commission Like MT. Lake, they have great confidence in the Legisla- ture.
 The COurant's correspondent, above quoted from, deals with this matter very intelIigently. He says:
 Let our friends who talk of the pub lie service commission as being the creature of the Legislature remember that the Legislature is in turn the creature of the people. Why have any Legislature? Why not let the people deal directly with the corporations The corporations would like this. We have learned that while democracy works well in a small community when the community becomes large ol involves the State or States the power to make laws must be delegated. St we have created Legislatures whicf are the tools and the only tools ade- quate to deal with the present situa- tion Likewise the State Legislatures in turn are learning that they cannot as a body directly grapple with the corporation and the trust so as to hOlC them to a just and fair service of the people Hence the Legislatures must create a machine that can do this work This engine is the public serv- ice commission. Something of the na ture of this must be devised or the people of this state who boast of thei1 creative power and as such being greater than any of the creatures they have made, will find themselves in thu anomalous situation of having created corporations which are greater ant more powerful than their creator. II fact some now think that the state o Connecticut is already in that anoma lous situation.

Increasing the tx lists, seems now to be the policy of assessors in several Connecticut cities. There are two pur- poses; first, to more nearly obey the law which demands full-value assess ments. and second, to secure increased revenues. Naturally, many property owners object and, generally speaking, the most vigorous objectors are those who have been most favored by low assessments and who have thus es- caped their just share of taxation It is fair rule that when the property
 value is increased above the owners selling price, his objection is well founded. but when the opposite is the fact, he cannot reasonably Kick, for the increase is merely compliance with the law.
 Assessors experience difficulty in as- certaining ''the fair market value and may therefore make errors which can,

Canadajs minister of Labor has in- troduced in the House at Ottawa a bill which provides that if six or more persons present priIna facie evidence to a superior court judge that a com bination has unduly raised the price of manufactured article, limited pro- ed trade. an investigation shall be ordered the penalty, in case of con- viction being a fine of s1 000 day un- til the abuse is abated.

Howling His Head
Off

Bro. j. Gordon Smythe, editor
Of the Wagon Mound Paragraph
is out in last weeks issue of his
paper in short Pants" over the
fact that the Spanish American is
the official paper for Mora Coun.
ty. He blames the county COM
missioners bitterly for this and
for other things he choosed to
feel aggrieved at. He even blam-
es them because Mora is So far
from his village and for doing as
they please without his consent.
We fail to see anything wrong in
the County Board awarding print
ing to the best equipped news
paper in the county, one that has
long been established and is reco-
nized as permanent and is equip
ped to do all kinds Of printing re-
quired by>them. Bro. j. Gordon
apparently does not know that the
best part of Mora County lies to
the east of Red River along with
considerable portion Of the rest
Of the United States and Roy is in
it. Come over some time Bro.
Symthe and get straight on your
geographical knowledge Of Mora
County.
