HIGH FALLS BUYS FRANCHISE.

A year ago the High Falls Power
Company which generates electric en-
ergy in vast quantities 10y water power
in northeastern Wisconsin and which
then had it's transmission lines as far
as Green Bay made proposals TO Mani
towoc for building as far MS this city.
1t WAS then looked upon favorably by
every one here as the city was not in a
position to supply the local demand for
power from the municipal plant. The
state of the money market made IL
difficult for the company TO make eX-
tensions then. Since then the com
pany has come as near to this city as
Brillion. The city has in the mean.
while perfected plans for combining its
water and electric plants and for
greatly increasing It's output Of elec.
tric energy The contract for the
building has been let.
Now comes the news that the High
Falls people have purchased the fran
chise Of the West Side Power and
Light Company granted years ago by
the city to company Of which VIII
liam Rahr, ST.. had the controlling in
terest. This company has operated as
II public utility in the neighborhood Of
the Mating Company's plant and has
even a city school as customer, The
High Falls Company evidently intends
to enter the city by using this fran
chise and compete with the city's
plant without consulting municipal au-
thoritles. considerable public senti-
ment favorable to the High Falls pow
er has teen created 10y public announce
ments that this water power generated
current can be sold much cheaper to
local industries than can the current
generated by steam 10y the city.
The mayor is said 10 too row opposed
10 permitting the High Falls competi.
tion If it can de prevented and he as
serts that the citys contemplated new
plant will in the long run be able 10
sell power to manufacturers as cheaply
as the High Falls Company. He sug.
gested that the city submit to the peo-
pie at the spring election the question
of taking over the West Side Com.
pany's properties and franchise under
tho municipal purchase provisions OF
The public utility law 1t is probably
intended by this means to prevent the
High Falls from entering the city
without a certificate of necessity from
the Railroad Commission, a situation
has developed that will ho watched
with interest
