SUIT AGAINST C. l. CARE OF BABIES
Utilities Commission Will APP
peal to the L. C. C.
To Stop Collecting of Bridge
Tolls at Troy.

The Kansas public utilities commits
sion Will appeal to the interstate com
merce commission for an order
against the collection of toll charges
for passengers across the Iranu
Island bridge at Troy. If the apph-
cation to prevent the collection OF
bridge tolls is denied, it is reported
that several other brands OF trouole
are in store for the Grand island
Announcement of the suit against
the Grand Island was made To-Day py
Joseph L. BriStow, chairman OF the
public utilities commission; ana Juuse
A E. Helm, attorney for the commIs-
sion. The case will be filed with the
interstate commerce commission at
once.
At present the Grand Island col
lects "a toll of twenty-five cents from
each railway passenger hauled over
the Missouri river bridge near Troy
Foot passengers and passengers IN We
hicles cross the bridge by the pay
ment OF a five-cent toll Since the
bridge is owned and operated by the
Grand Island railroad, 1t is claimed
by the Kansas commission that the
company is violating its corporate
rights and is performing the double
function of a common carrier ana d
bridge company by the use of bridge
built ror the accommodation OF IrelSht
and passenger business.
Should the application for an ordef
against the toll system fail, 1t IS Iu-
mored that the state will then inquire
into the Grand Islands right TO OpeI-
ate both as a railroad and bridge com
pany. That is not all. IS a turther
source of trouble, the state may seek
to compel the Grand Island to move
its principal offices from St Joseph
Mo, to Kansas
liz Is a Kansas Corporation.
The Grand Island railroad Is
Kansas corporation. Under the stat
law. the road is compelled to maintain
its principal offices in this state. rms
has NOT been done. Instead ii annual
" hauls its books across the river from
81 Joseph to the little town of FL
wood Doniphan county and there the
officers go through the formallty OF
an annual meeting.
of course these matters are not at
this time issues in the case to be tlled |
bv the utilities commission Still they
have caused state officials some small
concern and may be the source of fu- |
ture litigation if the Missouri river
bridge toll system is maintained
At AtchisOn and l. a n w H. |
bridge toll is charged but bridges over |
the Missouri river at both places are /
owned by independent com panies.
I'm the case of the Grand Island, !
which owns its own bridge, there is no |
more reason for charging toll for |
the Missouri river than there |
is for one of the roads through Topeka
a toll over the kaw river
bridges" said Chairman Bristow.
Further there is no method of rea-
soning which permits the Grand Island
to charge twenty-five cents for pas
senger on one of its trains and five
cents for foot passenger or a person
in a common conveyance.

Admires President Wilson.


John Georgeson, the Civil War vet
eran and citizen of Arctander, made
the Willmar Tribune a pleasant call
Monday. Mr. Georgeson's experiences
in the war of the States enables him
to comprehend better, perhaps, than
others, the magnitude of the struggle
now on in Europe. He can see no
principle involved in this great world
struggle but lust for power and terri
torial aggrandizement. God will not
be mocked," said Mr.. Georgeson.
The dropping Of bombs from above
on defenseless non-combatants is
most dastardly and reminded him of
the terrible fate Of the cities of Sod
ON and Gomorrah which were des-
troyed from fire on. high as a judg-
ment of righteous God. The reports
published from day to day of this
war reminds him of the accounts
printed Of the battles in the Civil War
by Confederate newspapers. They
never admitted defeat. Mr.. George
son is an ardent admirer of President
Wilson and his peace policy. He did
not vote for him but would do so now
if he had the chance. 'No matter if
he is a Democrat said Mr.. George.
son, president Wilson is the great.
est president since Lincoln. He
stands for peace and his judgment is
good. Think what misery and loss OF
life to our people have been spared
by his Mexican policy!"
