In the bill of complaint of the
Consumers Power company, suing
to prevent the city of Mankato from
enforcing the dollar gas ordinance,
as announced in last evenings Free
Press, the company claims that the
effect of the ordinance will be to
deprive II OF It's property without
due process of law, IN violation CT
the fourteenth amendment to the
constitution OF the United States.
Il Is also maintained that the pro-
posed ordinance will deprive the CON-
pany of its property without due
compensation, contrary to the fifth
amendment to the federal constitu-
ton.
II Is also claimed that the ordi-
nance will impair the obligations OF
contract between the company and
the city of Mankato in violation of
section ten of article one Of the fed
eral constitution.
The complaint tells Of the early
history of the company's franchise,
which was granted in 1882 to c. w.
Kanke and o. c. McCurdy, and re-
lates how in 1890 the Mankato Gas
and Electric Lighting company sue
ceeded to all the rights and privi-
leges OF the grantees. II Is also
told how in January 1910, the Con-
sumers' Power company succeeded
