PRATT HAS
TAKEN NO
ACTION
How Peoples Rights in the
Franchise Have Been
Ignored.

A peculiar condition Of affairs in
connection with spokane's- gas sit
uation is revealed by the records
Of the city eomptrolIer's office.
The fact has developed from an
examination Of the books Of the
comptroller that the franchise
which the Doherty syndicate Of
New York was bonded and stocked
for $7,300,oo0 has not paid a penny
franchise tax to the city Of spo-
kane for three years, In spite Of the
fact that the franchise ordinance
specifically says that the company
holding II must pay to the city 2
per cent per annum OF its gross
earnings.
Ordinance A1631, covering the
Roger Williams gas franchise, was
pending before the city council of
Spokane in 1904, and the argu-
ments used in it's favor were that
It would assure $3.50 gas and that
the company would pay the city a
tax Of 2 per cent on its gross earn
ings. The franchise also specificaT-
ly stated that the grantee receiv.
ing 1t was never to combine, unite,
pool, confederate, conspire or take
any other step that might tend to-
ward consolidation with the old
company then in the field.
See how beautifully the peoples 3
rights. in the franchise have been
ignored! The bills of the gas COM
pany are rendered at $1.75; we do
not receive the per cent fran
chise, as not a cent has been paid
on the franchise for three years !;
while the provision as to the COM
bination is nullity because the
new and the old gas companies are
controlled by the same interests
and operated as practically one
company. with two franchises-one
to beat the gas consumers and the
other to fool the bond buyers.
