 And no More.
Public Service Corporations Must Obey Law and Cease Favoring Persons
 With a "Pulr'.

PHOENIX. Dec. N--Rc solutions requiring all public service corpor- a,ions ;o cease charging minimum rates and discriminatory rates were introduced by Corporation Commis- sioner r. X. Jones at a meeting of inc commission this afternoon.
 If these resolutions are adopted. every public service corporation in ihc state will be affected. No one will be required to pay for more gas or electricity than he uses and no one will receive 2 lower rate. because of hi, political or other in- hucncc. than is charged the public.
 The first resolution requires inc public service corporations to com ply with section :. chapter S2 of the session laws of inc first Arizona leg islaturc. This statute makes it un- lawful for any company to charge for gas and electricity except on the basis of the amount used. In other words. there can be no minimum charge. Tn some cities of the state the minimum rate for electricity is S month. Practically all the com panics have minimum rates.
 Resolution No. ? calls on the com panies to submit amended schedules of rates. eliminating all discrimina tions. One man must pay as mucl as another.

BELOVED WOMAN
 DIES AT SAN DIEGO.
From w~lnesdsv's Daily,


 Advices yesterday from San Diego. Cal' brought the sad news of the death of Mrs. Emil Kaufman. after a protracted illness. MT. Kaufman was summoned two weeks ago 10 pass the holidays with his wife. whose illness was not then believed to be serious. The end came un- expeetedly. and a few hours before She was to have submitted to an op- eraton
 The death of Mrs. Kaufman will be learned of with the dcepes. sor- row by many in this city. Until T ,ew years ago she resided on South Mt. Verncn avenue with her husband and daughter, Mrs. Charles Motz, and enjoyed the esteem of all for her charming personality and ami able manners. Mir.

electricity at the rate of 4 cents a kilowa,t hour, while the regular rate is 70 cents Several Phoenix busi- ness houses are paying much less for gas and electricity than others. Formerly there was discrimination in telephone rates. but they have been largely eliminated by the Mountain States Company.
 General order No. of the cor pora,ion commission. issued Fcbru- ary i4. 1912. approved all public service rates then in effect. This was q matter of form. to prevent trouble until the commission could inquire into the rates. |, did not take them long to learn that many of the rates were discriminatory. The Pacific Gas & Electric company hearing in this city. and the Tucson Gas & electric company hearing in the Old Pueblo, brought out many instance: of discrimination.
 Ii an order cutting out minimum rates Is issued it will not affect wat CT works owned by cities. as tho corporation commission has no juris diction over municipalities.
 The adoption of the other rcsolu ton vii! have ar-rcaching effect ant probably make a number of extend cd hearings necessary. The compan ics will have to submit to the cor pora,ion commission their prescn schedules. showing what all thei customers pay. Then the question of whether the minimum or maxi mum rates shall he ordered in h, the commission will come up.
