proposition suggests the placing of
W. c. Ralston at the head of the
Pumping Association. giving him SUI
preme power to appoint officers and
administrative force. and bars any
company two months in arrears in
its allotted contributions. from having
a vote or voice in the association.
The San Francisco Chronicle says
that the president of the Pumping
Association has been empowered to
secure legal advice on the right OF
the power company to shut off the
current by such arbitrary action as
its recent note. The terms of the
contract were very broad, and it IS
claimed, will show that such action
was voidable.
