PARIS is ACCEPTING
The NEW CONDITIONS

Paris, Aug 1S-Paris is beginning to
accept the conditions of living that
have come into being since war was
declared and in some respects life in the
city is today more comfortable than
it was during the first days of mobili-
cation.
While there is still little movement
on the streets after dark, conditions in
this respect are improving. Some If
the subway lines are now permitted
to run up to 80 p. M. and the tram
ways up to 10 p. IN.
In the daytime the streets of the cap
ital are quieter; such tranquility has
not been known before in years. The
reason is that more than one half of
the vehicular traffic has disappeared.
The governor of the city has reiter-
ated his instructions to the effect that
no one may keep a stock of absinthe
in his residence. Anyone suspected of
drinking absinthe in secret is liable to
have his domicile searched.

ARGUMENTS ON THE
|. POWER SITUATION
Public Utilities Commission
Again Hears About the
Idaho Power War.

Argument before the public utilities
commission for certificates of public
convenience and necessity petitioned
for by the Idaho Power g. Light COM
pany and the Clear Lake Power &
Improvement company to enter the
Twin Falls electrical field, was heard
this morning. Both companies seek to
enter Twin Falls county as COMPETE
tor sof the Great Shoshone e. Twin
Falls Water Power company now in
control of that field.
This is expected to be the last step
in the hydro electric power fight to
give the Twin Falls field competition.
The hearing today was a continuance
of the hearings held in southern Idaho
some time ago by members Of the
commission. Unusual interest is CEN
tered in the outcome of the petitions
due to the fact the electrical field is a
big one and there has been eevry effort
made to prove the claim that the field
can stand additional electrical develop
ment and that competition will mean
cheaper rates.
The conflict between the Great Sho-
shone company, the Southern Idaho
Power company, the Beaver River
Power company and the Idaho Power
& Light company the four big hydro
electric power companies in the south
ern Idaho field, has been in progress
for over a year and has gone before
the commission and before the su
preme court, where the constitution
atty of the commissions act was up
held. The application of the Idaho
Power & Light company for certifl-
cate of public convenience and neces-
sity to enter the Twin Falls field was
subsequently made and at the same
time an independent company in the
Clear Lake Power && Improvement
company entered the conflict petition
ing for a second certificate of public
convenience and necessity.
The interested companies We're rep
resented before the commission today
together with officers of the com
panies.
