odorous session in the investigation

the name of a Cobb county official
llgures prominently in some chapters
OF the story, for the people of the
county are already too familiar with
the habits and character of this Of

In an inspired letter to the Portland
Press an advocate of State owner
ship. says:
ga corporation appears on the
scene and by Legislative grant gets
the right to build a dam at the outlet
of the lake. From that moment and
forever after that corporation claims
the sole and exclusive right to con-
troll the water in that chain of lakes
and ponds. All the wealth that this
water produces in the form of power
goes into the dividends of that cor
poration
Even if some Legislature in the past
gave away these rights is it not time
for the people of today to reacquire
them? Should the action of some
past Legislature forever bar the citi-
zens of Maine from their equitable
rights?"

WATER POWERS
IN MAINE

A certain paper advocating State
ownership expresses surprise mat
such notable and worthy concerns as
those great Cotton Manufacturing
Corporations of Lewiston, Biddeford
and Augusta, and the Great Paper
Manufacturing Corporations OF Mil
linocket, Rumford Falls and Wood
land should ally themselves with the
opposition to State ownership OF
water powers.
Is it any wonder that every person
and every corporation that has ex-
pended time and money to develop
the source of its power under the
laws of the State of Maine and by
charters granted by the State, should
view with concern the sentiments
quoted in the column parallel to this
article?
Why may not some future Legisla-
ture whenever it may wish to do SC,
take away from Portland and Lewis
ton the rights to use the waters OF
Lakes Sebago and Auburn for their
water systems which was granted to
them by former Legislature? OF
course the idea of taking away from
these cities rights granted them is
rank Socialism, but it is equally So
cialistic to confiscate the property of
private individuals or corporations.
Do the people of Maine think that
these advocates of State ownership
are inviting capital to develop Names
resources or will this Socialistic prop
uganda prevent capital from invest
ing in Maine?
