Premier spoke to a hushed and /
crowded chamber, and when
he said the government well
coined such a move and would
do its utmost TO make it sue

plause from all quarters, which
in the opinion of old journal

NECESSITY AND
CONVENIENCE

least tnougnt Iney were OppFes
ed by unjust and oppressiv
practices Of the various publ
utilities corporations and com
panies doing business in tn
state.
TO correct these evils and pr
tect the public interests a Utili
ties Commission was created.
The first Commission appoin
ed either invented or adopted
from other sources the phrase
Necessity and Convenience
and established it as a basis of
all its actions. Each subse-
quent Commission has fol-
lowed The same line Of action.
All the decisions Of the various
Commissions have been determ
ined by its judgement of the
Necessity and Convenience"
of the utilities company or cor
poration involved
If there is a single decision
on record in which the "Necess-
ity and Convenience" of the con
Stunning public has been the
guiding motive of the Commiss-
ion il has been of so rare an
occurrence as TO escape public
attention.
We have a state Commits
ion maintained at public eX-
pense, paid by the taX-paying
public, which pays its eXpence
account, from unjust and bur-
densome regulations and eX-
cessiye charges for service Of
the various utility companies.
But, intead of acting as the a.
gent of the public this Com
mission has used its power and
authority to absolutely wipe |
out all forms of competition
among the producers Of public
utility service.
Under its Interpretation and
of the pet term
q Necessity and Convenience"
il has used it power to build up
an absolute MONOPOLY of all
public utilities.
No new power companies, or
companies, or trans
companies can ever
secure authority to do business
n the State of Idaho in any
community in the state. For
heir application for a permit
would be rejected by the Utili-
les Commission on the as
umed fact that the Necessity ,
nd Convenience of the local :
~ sought to be served by the 4;
ew company, does not justify {
ne expense of construction and
peration, and further that the
srvice to that community be as :
'ell supplied by companies al +
sady doing business in the
ate. {
If this commission had !,
he authority to regulate all 9th !;
? business as it has the utilities :.
would absolutely prohibit =
he establishment IN any town =
? community of more than one
rug store, or one bank, or one .,
