Railroad Commission
Raises Power Rates
Fixed By Franchise

Bismarck, N. D., May 21.-A ten
per sent increase in rates has been
granted the Lisbon Electric Light and
Power company by the state railroad
commission. The increase is for six
months. dating from May 1, 1921, and
is in lieu of a 26 per cen increase
granted.
The commission order again re-
views the contention Of opposition to
the increase that the commission
does not have power to increase a
rate fixed by franchise with a city.
The commission holds that the ques-
ton is well settled that it has such
power.
The commission found that the rate
paid by the city Of Lisbon for street
lighting was inadequate and ordered
it increased.
The order cites that an audit of the
company was made by the Bishop,
Brimznan q Co. Of st. Paul. with the
state commission and the city jointly
employing the auditors.
