THIS COMPOSITION DEFEATS IT'S
OWN PURPOSE

~ public service commission OF
Oregon, in a paper read before q re-
cent meeting of the N. e. L. A. in
Oregon. said:
If the state is to invite private
enterprises to perform its govern
mental functions, 1t must deal as
fairly with the utility as it expects
the utility to deal fairly with 1t. The
investment invited must. to the ex-
tent that 1t 1t prudently and honestly
made, be given such reasonable safe
guards that in the long run capital
will be continued to be invested in
such enterprises.
1t has often been pointed out that
public utility investments are of q
fixed character; the property stays
where it is put. and the owner cannot
load 1t upon the cars and take 1t else
where when market conditions do
not suit him in the locality where he
has made his investment. In no way
can the permanency and attractive
ness Of the public utility service be
impaired more quickly than by un-
necessary and useless competition ad-
mitted or permitted in an already in
sufficient field.
There is no denying that competi-
tion often brings temporary gains to
present consumers; and there can be
no doubt 1t Is sometimes necessary asI
a disciplinary measure for q utility
which has failed in its duty and for
the protection Of the public. Like
wise, there can be no doubt that un-
necessary or destructive competition
does the community more
harm than It accomplishes tempo
rary benefit: that even for temporary
benefits there comes Q time Of repay
ment with interest; and that the ef-
fects on the state a. q whole are dele
terious.
The most aggravated case Of all il |
where the municipality, through par
tisan or ill-considered motives enters
INTO competition-aA unregulated

COkv|CTS LOOSE IN
HUMBOLDT COUNTY

Eureka. Cal. May 9.-Fightlng
their way through the perilous Hum
boldt country. armed with one re-
volver and possibly encumbered with
a wounded man, the three convicts
who broke away from the Mendocino
county road camp were still at large
today, with an army OF deputies and
citizens in hot pursuit. Every road
and trail is heavily guarded and
many ambushcades have been pre-
pared in the hills, where officers walt
with rifles, ready to attack the fugi-
tives should they appear. That the
convicts will fight desperately Is the
belief OF pursuers. One OF them Is a
murderer and another is accused OF
arson. Since the prisoners put up a
fight against the posse, exchanging
many shots without result. they have
not been seen. Shrleks were heard
from their hiding place during the
battle, so It is thought that one Is
wounded and that his companions
are probably carrying him. The
trio Is now in a country from which
many claim II will be impossible for
them to escape. The district is ex-
ceedingly rough and is penetrated on
ly by hunters and trappers who have
been familiar with II for years. Even
they have difficulty. Others main
tain that II is possible the convicts
have already made their way out OF
the wilderness. saying that although
the way is full Of dangers. the men
are Aghting for freedom. ~.
