IN introduced BY Senator Nc
Manus and Representative
Hamilton Gives Council
Full Control.
DRAFTED BY COLLINS
NJ Report Has Been Received
Since the Introduction Of
the Bill but Supporters
Are Conf dent.

No report has been received In Keo-
tuk. from Des MONIES, regarding the
encouragement received by the bill
introduced by Senator McManus and
representative Hamilton, Friday.
concerning public utilities.
The bill was drafted by Major w.
4 Collins, of Keokuk, and provides
a. municipal control over public util-
tiles Of all kinds, gives the county
supervisors power to discharge, sum
marily, officials who fail to make reg
Mar reports, and authority to the
supervisors to compel railroads to
build bridges and tunnels. where
needed in road construction.
The bill is the direct result Of the
mass meeting held last fall by citi-
lens Of Keokpk. to protest over the
. Increase of telephone rates. The
POPULATIONS of Bruce Lake, former
county clerk, also was in part re-
,ponsible for the drafting of the bill.
Manager e. L. Williams, Of the
Iowa Telephone company declared
last night that he had heard nothing
Of the bill, mere than the fact that 1t
had been introduced in both houses.
Mr.. Williams said that he was heart
ily in favor of a state commission TO
B have control of public utilities but
that local commission could not I'M
i derstand conditions that confronted
corporations, as they were restricted
! in their work to one locality, while q
state commission was in touch with
the situation as it existed over the
whole state. and were, therefore, in
much better position to decide fair.
" questions which might arise.
Major W. B. Collins, who drafted
the bill would give city councils pow.
er to determine whether or not public
utilities corporations were justified in
raising rates and that people here
we're not favorable to state commits
sions for the reason that they wanted
to spend their own money as they
saw fit, in an economical manner an6
one which would be satisfactory to al
concerned.
Local commissions, declared Mr.
Williams, Saturday night, ARE in al
nest all cases, a detriment, hind
rance and nuisance to all big cor
porations or individuals, over whom
they have jurisdiction. Their point o
view is limited from the fact that the.
DO not have large enough field tt
work in and they do more to hinde
Inc deserved growth of Legitimate
business than any other thing. am
however, heartily in favor of stat
commission
