MORE FRANCHISES.
Warning 10 Go Slow in Considering
q New Company.

Editor Of THE EVENING JOURNAL.
II is stated in a morning paper that
another company is seeking in Will
mington a franchise for a lighting
plant There will probably be some
sentiment in favor Of granting what
the promoters ask. The advice of the
writer to the people of Wilmington is
to go slow In encouraging the estab-
lishment Of any more public utilities
In this city. The outrageous rates for
J light and power collected by the VIII
mington and Philadelphia Traction
Company justify all the irritation and
resentment that the outraged people
feel. but relief In the writer's humble
opinion does not lie in more alleged
competition A seven cent rate for
electricity may appear attractive
under prevailing conditions but the
time Of adjustment is coming soon
and when 1t arrives the great diff
Guilty win be how to equitably COM
pensate for the multiplicity of plants
which have been accommodating. Bet
ter endure the 10 cent rate a few
months longer than to be compelled
to consider the rights of still another
corporation when settling day arrives.
