To them, indeed, the awakening OF
subterranean forces long dormant has

Iare the safety-valves for energies re-
leased by establishments of the earth's
crust, whereby the rock molten by
pressure and interior heat escapes to
the surface under propulsion of super

the ash Is lava shattered by the ex-

I'VE should also add some expression
of our views as to the effect of this
proposed merger upon the interests of
the general public. Is the proposed
consolidation calculated to promote the
public good. and should it be eneour-
aged, or does 1t partake of the nature
of a harmful monopoly against whic.
the power of the state should be di-
rected for the purpose of preventing

Its dissolution? The answer to this
question clearly depends upon the pol
ley of the law and the ability of the
state to protect its citizens against thu
evils always attendant upon an unreg-
ulated monopoly. If our legislature
had not enacted the public utilities ac,
OF this state the formation or such a
merger would inevitably endanger the
rights of the patrons of these public
utilities to be supplied with adequate
and efficient service at reasonable cost.
We might in that event expect with
confidence the occurrence here of those
