WE WANT CITY.OWNED UTILITIES.

At the last municipal election the voters of Duluth
by decisive majority voted in favor of issuing bonds
the amount of 100000 for the purpose of erecting
electric lighting plant. Since that time the city
mission has been formulating plans whereby would be
possible to take the present companys properties
After two years and half tentative figure was
presented to the Duluth Edison Electric company which
they rejected after due consideration AS consistent
with all people who believe in municipal ownership at
home we'll away from home suggestion was made
that competing plant constructed in units be built
Immediately the o-municpal-ownership ad-
vocates began to all the advantages of the
Duluth Edison Electric company Charges of graft and
tnsncer1y have been brought against the commission
for doing something which year ago they were crit-
czed for not doing. The morning something

toned the matter is unsoved mystery Did the
voters what they said last election or were they
only fooling?
The evening paper asks editoriay, "Why this haste
for city owned pant:' There is haste. The Duluth
Edison has drawn dividends upon inflated stocks
and bonds long enough. To ask the people of Duluth
to these dividends any longer imposition TO
demand that the city of pay the company for
fictitious values is not only imposition but clear
case of graft Were the city commissioners exercise
the policies for themselves they would probably be
placed behind prison bars.
Complaint has been made that city has arbitrarily
placed the going value of the company 5000 600
agree with the statement 1t could nothing else but
arbitrary. We however, feel that the price is placed
100000 too high What "going 1t is often
called franchise value" Why should the city pay any
corporation tor franchise which it's termination re-
verts to the city? In other words why pay private
company for something which already belongs to us?
1t Is generally agreed, however, that the company
should be for the loss of profits will
