GAS RATE TOO HIGH
People Tired Of Paying Big Price
for Public Utility Want Their
Own Plant.
No Good Reason for Making Rich
Coupon Clippers Richer at Public
Expense.

The Gas Trust Is already at work
on an attempt to organize the next
Legislature, which meets in January.
This Is made necessary by the de-
termination Of the people to so amend
the Public Utilities Law as to make
It almost mandatory on the Public
Utilities board to reduce the price of
gas from the present exorbitant
figure.
The next Legislature may pass a
law which will either make 70.cent
gas legally a fact or else allow the
gas trust to double its profits at the
expense of the citizens Of Cook Coun.
ty by a bill increasing the price Of
gas to the people Of Chicago.
The Public Utilities Commission has
given the people no relief from the
Gas Trust. II has no excuse for not
giving relief. The next Legislature
will make the way easier for cheap
gas. Recent gas rate history Is not
forgotten.
Under an act passed by the Legisla.
ture In 1905 Chicago was allowed to
fix its own gas rate by an ordinance
In the City Council. Under this act
the City Council, through the efforts
Of the late Alderman Herman Bauler.
passed an ordinance limiting the price
Of gas to 20 cents. Immediately upon
the passage Of this ordinance the gas
trust fled an appeal with the su.
preme Court alleging that some Of
the amendments to the enabling act
passed in 1905 by the Legislature
were said to have been omitted in the
printing Of the Senate Journal. On
this purely technical ground the gas
trust asked that the law be declared
unconstitutional.
The Hungry Gas Trust will divide
the preliminary stage Of organizing

which originated on the Chicago &
North Western railway-was accom-.
panied by an increase In the number
OF travellers carried, as compared with
the year before, of nearly q million, or
2.92 per cent.
The total was 33.3S9,42s, the eQuiva.
lent OF over one.third of the popu.
lation OF the United States, as com.
cared with 32,441,45O In 1913, which
also represented a large increase over
the preceding years.
The total mileage travelled by the
Chicago 4 North Western railway pas.
senger trains during the year was a..
537,7sl, or nearly one thousand times
the distance around the earth.
That this record should have been
accomplished by the railway which
leads in the safety movement Is a
source OF satisfaction to the com.
panys officials.

lance without transshipment."
Chicago is going to open barrel
for the contractors and their friends.
Among the big projects on which 1t
Is expected to make start are:
Street car subways. for which $40.
100000 is available.
New west side passenger and
freight terminals for the railroads.
Lake front development carried on
by the park boards.
The West 18th street widening by
the city and benefited property own
ers.
Improvement of the county roads,
for which 100000 has been set
aside by the voters.
Completion of the new municipal
pier and pavilion.
The boulevard link, of which the
voters have approved.
Bathing beach and water works de.
velopment, on which the city has
started.
The people demand relief from the
Gas Trust extOrtion at the hands of
the next Legislature.
The Public Utilities Board must be
given mandatory instructions to act
In this important matter.
One of the big issues In Chicago Is
the reduction of gas rates. It was an
issue upon which an election was
won. 1t is an issue that should be
fought vigorously to a conclusion.
A law compelling such reduction
should be embodied In the first bills
introduced In both House and Senate.
Any lawyer can take the present
law and draw suitable amendments
In an hour-amendments that will put
1t beyond the attack of even the gas
company. And the Legislature can
pass such bill In week. It should
do SO. because 1t IL not an issue upon
which there should be any debate. II

There Is talk already Of eliminating
caucuses and party rule.
Gas Trust Republicans and Gas
Trust Democrats are getting together
to fight the Governor and every p0pu.
lar reform measure.
The elimination of caucuses Is
likely to mean the election OF a
Speaker by bipartisan combination.
In order to prevent this, some OF the
Republican leaders will make an
effort to put through the caucus plan.
There is question In the minds Of
some of the Republicans as to
whether it will be to their advantage
from a political standpoint to organ.
ize the house on partisan lines.

The Governor will need Republican
votes to get his measures through the
legislature. The Republicans are
certain to demand that the Progress
sives be removed from minority posi-
tions.
Although the Republicans seem to
have at least an even majority with
seventy-seven members, movement
is on foot within the party to abolish
the caucus.
The vets, who are fearful that the
drys would dominate the caucus
and bind them to support the major
ity choice, are the chief element hos
tile to the caucus plan. The vets are
practically certain to control the

committee records. The rules Of the

was not observed. The records were
to be fled with the secretary Of state,
