Are the Railroad Commission's s
recommendations good for any
thing or not, and may they be
disregarded with impunity
Recently the United Railways
Company, operating a trolley
line on the west side of the
river, took up the matter of
rates of fare with the Commits
sion on the plea that il was los
ing money on the rates charged
between Linnton and Portland.
After thorough investigation,
the Commission found this TO be
a fact; that the company had
been losing money right along.
The Commission, and il would
seem justly, too. recommended
that the Company raise the fare
from five cents TO ten cents each
way. The new rates were in
voked. But the company had a
contract with the county of Null
tnomah whereby il agreed to
make the fare FIVE cents. When
the raise was made upon the
recommendation of the Railway
Commission the city of Linnton
took up the matter with the
county court, and the court has
ordered the company to remove
its tracks. Ii now seems that
the company will do this. and
probably the line to Linnton will
be abolished. This is evidence
that the recommendations of the
Railway Commission are utterly
futile, if the county court can
ride over its decisions, and that
the Commission is a valueless
piece of furniture" for want of
power to enforce its recon-
mendations. Ii also looks as if
the city of Linnton had put its
foot in it," Had it been reason
able, even though the company
had agreed to operate on a five
cent fare. when the fact was
established that it was losing
money, and big money. every |
year, it should have allowed the |
raise in fares without protest
until the company was at least |
able to break even. Now it may |
lose its trolley line altogether, |
just because il was not willing
that the convenience should be
self supporting.

Subscription price St.oo per year.

The movement inaugurated by
the city council toward acquir-
ing the st. Johns Water Com.
pany's plant is a most worthy
one. Other cities have found it
greatly to their advantage to
own their own water systems,
and there is no reason why st.
Johns should not do likewise.
The installation of an electric
light plant is also another pro-
ject contemplated, and it is
believed to be more profitable
investment even than the water
plant. But both could be con-
Quoted in fine style by the city.
After a satisfactory price has
been secured on the plant we
will have much to say regard
ing the project, and will pro-
duce facts and figures that we
believe will appeal to all.

Law May Be Void
From today's Oregonian:

From today's 0regonian:
The constitutional amendment
adopted at the election purport-
ing to enable city to surrender
its charter and be merged into
another may not give st. Johns
the opportunity to come into
Portland after all, in the opinion
of some attorneys who have ex-
amined the wording of the
amendment. They say that the
act defeats itself, as shown in
section 2 of the amendment,
which reads:
"The Legislative Assembly, or
the people by the initiative, may
enact a general law providing a
method whereby an Incorporated
city or town or municipal cor
poration may surrender its char
ter and be merged into an ad-
joining city or town, provided a
majority of the electors of each
of the Incorporated cities or
towns or municipal corporations
affected authorize the surrender
or merger. as the case may be. )"
81 voted for the measure,
said ex-Mayor Couch, president
of the st. Johns Commercial Club.
this morning. "but / have been
informed by attorneys who have
examined the amendment that
the wording of the amendment
makes it void in that it requires
a majority of the electors. in
stead of votes cast. However.
| suppose it will be tried out"
The act grew out of the effort
of st. Johns to merge with Port
land several years agoA There
was contest and the Supreme
Court held that st. Johns could
not surrender its charter. This
amendment was prepared with
the expectation that it would
clear the way for annexation to
Portland. and now it is said that
the amendment contains a "jok-
er" that may render it void.
Annexation comes up constant
ly, and there is no doubt an effort
will be made to merge st. Johns
into Portland. provided it can be
done under the amendment.

is a man who has always stood
high in the estimation OF the
people of st. Johns, and who
has been repeatedly elected City
Councilman by a large vote. and
that he is a man in whom the
people have confidence in his
ability and integrity, the victory
is a source of great satisfaction
to Mr.. Williams. IL was not
that his opponent was untrust.
worthy or in any way untitled
for the office, but because the
regime of Mr.. Williams has
given universal satisfaction and
there was no reason for having
him displaced. His fine sense
of business, upright character,
courageousness and his other
splendid traits and attributes
have endeared him TO the peo.
pie. hence his reelection in spite
of one of the strongest men in
the city being his opponent,
