A Local Affair.

In some discussions of the decision
of the public utilities commission in
the Ashton case the local situation has
been introduced. The Capital News
in unfolding the decision of the COM
mission states that an illustration of
the detriment of two competing power
companies is shown in Boise. 1t says
that the Idaho Oregon company was
first in the field and was furnishing
good service at fair ~rices. The Beav-
er River Co., now the Idaho Power &
Light Co., entered the field and a rate
war ensued. but eventually the two
companies combined and the rates
we're raised to higher point than
they were before. We do not know
the light and power rates prevalent
in Boise at the present time and do
not question the premises of the
Capital News. As to consolidation
of the two companies, Mr.. Num-
president of the Idaho Power & Light
Co. (Beaver River Coz states that
a working agreement has been made
; between the two companies. In spite
of this operating agreement Caldwell
is today getting d better and cheaper
electric light and power service than
ever before. When the Idaho Power
& Light co. entered Caldwell power
was reduced in price and It is still
sold at greatly reduced rates.
The entrance of the second power
company in this field was a direc,
and immediate benefit to the people,
The operating agreement of the twr
companies 10 a proper field of in
vestigation for the public utilities com
mission, 1t was not the fact that two
companies were operating here that
was a detriment but that they were
permitted to come to working agree
ment that boosted prices, II such an
agreement did do that.

GOWEN SAYS BUSINESS IN
EAST IN BAD CONDITION
Manufacturers Look Forward to De-
preston and May Have to Close.

]. B. Gowen has been in the city
since Thanksgiving after having spent
two months at Boston, Lowell and
other New England manufacturing
towns. AS Mr.: Gowen spent his EN-
tire time in the wooden factories and
among the manufacturers of wooden
cloth he is in position to know the
exact conditions in that line of indus
try. He says:
After spending two months and
more among the wooden factories in
the manufacturing towns of Boston,
Lowell and nearby points | feel that
| am pretty we'll acquainted with &C
tual conditions at the present time.
Factories which year ago were
working overtime are now laying off
men and running only part of the
time. The disposition of the man
ufacturers themselves is to run if
possible. They will run without
profit but cannot run at loss. They
feel that in order to compete with for
eign factories they will have to cut
expenses and one of the cuts that will
come sooner or later is cut in wages
When this is done there will be the
biggest strike in the textile industries
that the country has ever known. The
tariff is responsible for this condition.
"The more intelligent of the labor
ers in the mills would today welcome
a reduction in wages if they could still
meet the cost OF living and avert a
closing down of the mills. In the
wooden industry American wages are
1000 higher on the average than En-
glish wages for the same work. 1t
has been argued that American eff
cheney will overcome this difference
in wages. The fallacy of This argu-
ment appears at once when il is real
lied that 900 of the workmen in the
wooden mills are foreigners.
"The wooden industry has been built
up by protection and if it is to con-
tinue it must either have protection
or bring wages down to the European
scale. Protection has been done away
with to a large extent Reduction of
wages will be followed by a strike.
That Is the situation in a nutshell. I
can, see nothing ahead in this industry
but closed mills, paralyzed industry
and soup shops"
Mr.. Gowen intended remaining in
Caldwell some time but was called to
North Loup, Neb., Tuesday, by the
serious sickness of his mother.

PRISONER ESCAPES
FROM COUNTY JAIL

: Robert Stanley a federal prisoner
being held in the Canyon county Jail
awaiting trial in the Federal Court,
made his escape Friday evening.
Stanley was arrested at Nampa a
few weeks ago on charge OF burglar
izing box-cars containing interstata
shipments of merchandise.
Stanley made a confession after his
arrest duplicating himself and several
others OF robbery OF box-cars between
Pocatello and Ontario. Since then
two other members of the supposed
gang have been arrested and are held
in Boise awaiting trial. Stanley was
considered the most valuable prisone,
of the three as it was on his confession
and testimony that the capture and
conviction OF the others depends.
1t is thought that Stanley was aided
in his escape by some one from the
outside. The escape being made by
breaking through the sheet iron floor
of the Jail and tunneling through the
foundation of the Jail. The prisoner
made his escape on the west bound
passenger train No. 5 and as yet has
not been captured.

There reposes in the public utilities

Over investment in capital and udp-
LEGATION of equipment is theoretically
an economic waste but we are still

and this system in itself is our only
bride on monopoly.
The Ashton and St. ANTHONY Power
Co. asked to enter territory in eastern
Idaho partially covered by the Utah
Power & Light Co. The public utilities
commission denied the new company
this right upon the broad ground that
the service was not needed. The
patrons of the company already in
the field made complaints both of
inadequate service and excessive rates.
The complaints may or may not have
been justified. 1t is a matter of in
difference in this discussion whether
or mot they were justi6able. The
point is that the public utilities COM
mission exercises the right to decide
the extent to which the state is to be
developed and who is going to de-
velop it. Carried to its logical con-
clnsion the state public utilities COM
mission may also pass upon steam
and electric railways. For some years
past there has been talk of the con-
struction of an electric railway De-
tween Caldwell and Weiser. The
commission claims the power to de-
eide whether or not this railway shall
be constructed. In other words it
can perpetuate the Oregon Short
Lines monopoly forever SO far as
interstate commerce is concerned. 1t
may claim also the power to shut out
railways seeking to transverse the
state. In fact there is no limit to the
powers this commission may calm.

OLD TIMER VISITS CALDWELL
AFTER ABSENCE OF YEARS
Was Here When this was Terminal
Of Oregon Short Line.

H. c. Ethel, we'll known in, this cit,
and nearby points, was in Caldwell
for a few hours Wednesday visiting

was a guest of Mr.. and Mrs. ]. Ed
Miller. Mr.. Ethel is now located a,

stopped off for a short visit with Cald-
we'll friends OF which he has a great
many.
Mr.. Ethel came to Idaho in the
early eighties and bought the first
ticket sold in the east to Glenn's Fer
ry. He bought the ticket before the
tic ket agents in the east and middle
west knew that such place existed
or that the o. S. L. had got that far
west, having gotten it from head
quarters. He arrived in Glenns Ferry
and after short visit went to Boise
and for while was employed on the
Boise Statesman. He first struck
Caldwell the day before Robert E..
Strahorn ran his excursion train from
Salt Lake to Caldwell bringing lead
ing railroad officials and Utah business
men and capitalists to the coming city
of Idaho. Mr.. Ethel remained over
to see the big excursion which is still
remembered by the old timers. He
returned to Boise on the other side OF
the Boise river crossing while they
were building the old wagon bridge
at the canyon north OF this city.
Mr.. Ethel has engaged in the news
paper and ministerial work at Spring.
field. Many of his old friends met him
while here. They were very glad to
see him again.

previous sales in attendance and in
stock offered. The horses, cattle, and
sheep offered were readily taken up
at satisfactory figurs.
The managers of the Sales Company
stated before the November sales that
little would be offered at the Decem-
Der sales. The stock was not to be
had at this time of the year and no
efforts were made to attract buyers.
The January sales, it is expected, will
exceed in volume of business and at
tendance any sale in the history of
the company. Preparations for the
January sales will be started at once.
