4 BRAzEN SCHEME.

There is a hearing in progress TO-DAY
befors the joint judiciary committees Of
the two houses Of the legislature at
Des Mo;nes which Is Of the greatest
moment u cities and toms in Iowa of
any bill that will ever come before this
legislature. The Van Law and Sam
mis- public utilities bills are up for dis
cussion. Van Law has proposed that
since city councils are now authorized
BY statute TO fix rates for gas. electric
ity and water sold by private COM
panies, they be given power also to Sc
cure from said companies information
from the books as to cost of production,
earnings and valuations. With this in
formation a city council! would be able

would be reasonable.

Passing Mr.. Cullonls assertions as 10
his own innpecca bility as possibly quite
correct and anyway as statement made
by present com pany" there are 6 con-
siderable number OF other states which
NAV Justly resent com parison of their
political morality with that OF Illinois.
Recent revelatio do not indicate any
great N oral change since the celebrated
poker game which was charged with
the responsibility Of breaking another

However. II the progressive repub-

block these games Instituted by can
didate who has less than one-third OF
the republican votes. then the progress
sive republicans had better quit bust
ness in Iowa. II Will be simply case
OF the tail wagging the dog. The
standpatters are TO blame for this
deadlock Sixty-six republicans can
agree on a man for senator. Thirty-two
other republicans ara trying to dictate
who shall be elected by the sixsy-six.
Failing OF having their way. the minor
ity Is demanding a special primary
while member Of the majority is
blocking the special primary with the
Oregon plan It is 10 be sincerely hoped
that the progressive republicans are
giving neither one of the plans ser
