BONE BILL: WYNOOCHE POWER
BY A. EMERSON CROSS. CITY ATTORNEY,

chase, own, operate, control, add to
and maintain, electric generating
plants, lands, easements, rights
rights-of-way, franchises, distribu,
ton systems, sub-stations, inter-tis
or transmission lines, to enable it t.
use, purchase, sell and dispose Of
electric current inside or outside its
corporats limits, or to connect its
plant with any other electric plant OF
system, or to connect parts of its OwT
electric system"
This section Of the bill gives te
municipal corporations the same pow.
er as is now enjoyed by private cor
porations and no more.
In order to give municipalities the
full benefits Of the privileges enjoyed
by private companies it was necessary
to make this section very broad in
its provisions.
With Section / it enables munich
palities to create q super power sys-
tenn to the ultimate benefit of al the
people of the state of Washington
The private power companies boast
of their super power system, possible
only of creation by similar legisla-
ton.
The provision for inter-tie or trans
mission lines in this section makes
possible his super power system,
Seattle and Tacoma are already tied
together and Aberdeen can be tied
on to Tacoma. The headworks of the
Wynooche project are only about "a
miles from the headworks Of the
Cushman project.
So that the first day that the Wy
nooche power is turned on it win flow
into a super power system. The con-
sumers of power within the county
who are enjoying it's benefits, viii do
so at a much lower cost than possible
with surplus power going to waste.
AS time goes on this surplus power
will be taken up by developments and
demands within the county. The time
will come when the demand for power
will be greater than the supply. We
can then draw upon the super power
system to meet such demands.
The threat that this section will
enable the city Of Seattle or the city
of Seattle to invade Grays Harbor
county and condemn the plant of the
Grays HarbOr Railway & Light COM
pany is now held up as a nightmare
to the voters.
Remember that private companies
operate for profit and the invitation
of a good field of operation brings
them to a locality.
A municipality operates for serv-
ice, at cost, and has no motive in i'm
posing its benefits upon the people
of community unless invited into
the field.
If the people of any city or county
desires to purchase power from Ia

In my first and second articles
discussed Section 1 Of the Bone Power
bill known as Initiative No. So.
showed that the provisions author
izing cities to sell electric energy
outside of the city limits was vital
to the Wynocohe Power Project.
The power it gives the city to sell
current outside of the city limits en-
able it to extend the benefit of the
development to all the people Of
Grays Harbor county.
| showed that the benefits Of serv-
ice at cost under municipal owner
ship could be destroyed by taxation
This would enable the private utili-
ties to maintain their high rates.
In this article l desire to discuss
the second section of the proposed
measure.
Section 2 provides;
"Section 2. Any city or town is
hereby authorized to acquire, con-
Southwest Washington labor press. [volume] (Hoquiam, Wash.) 19??-19??, 1924-10-17

coma OF Seattle. this section author
fzes such purchase.
4 Neither Seattle OF Tacama would
want to go into the business of pow
En- distribution in any other city or
town. Il would not even want to 20
into any district outside Of IS city
limits, excepting such as would be
represented by district organization
or contiguous to its own city limits.
Where there Is no profit involved
there is generally harmony in all
municipal affairs.
It win not be necessary to maintain
a standby plant for our own system,
which would be otherwise absolutely
necessary. A shutting off Of our
source Of supply would be taken care
of by the super power system. Of
course, this would not protect against
any serious trouble on the power
lines but reduce to a minimum posi-
bic interference with the supply of
current.
/ have no doubt that there viii be
perfect cooperation between the city
Of Aberdeen and the cities of Seattle
and Tacoma, in the distribution of
power generated by the great muni-
cipal super power system authorized
by the provisions of Initiative No.

Don't allow the false fear Of an
invasion of Grays Harbor by the city
Of Seattle or the city of Tacoma to
prevent you from voting for Initia-
tive No. 50 at the coming election in

'MA' FERGUSON B
 HELD QUALIFIED
 FOR TEXAS POST
Judge Calhoun Brushes Aside Common Law
 Barriers
tRy Associated Press)

AUSTIN, Tskaa.. Sept. %. Mrs Miriam A. Ferguson today won the first step in disqualified as democratic nominee for governor of Texas An in- junction to keep her name off the bal lot was. refused by Judge George c. Calhoun in Fifty-third district court. ! The court held that Mrs. Ferguson is qualified in every way to hold the of flee and that the sO-called common law disability against women in office does not apply.
 He held with Mrs. Ferguson on all law points. He said first that the plaintiff had power to bring the suit under the statutes and that the court had Jurisdiction, but on all other ques- ti0ns Mrs. Ferguson won.
 Finds No Inhibition
 The court held first that he had Jurisdiction to hear the case and that Charles N.. Dickson had the right as a private citizen to start the proceedings. Having cleared away these technical obstacles, Judge Calhoun went imme- diately into the heart of the question as to whether women has the right to hold office under present laws.
 Going back into the common law of England, on the principles of which the plaintiff had grounded his suit, the court explained that women were not allowed to hold office under the old custom law principally because a custom to that effect had grown up. It was based on the assumption that women were too delicate for the ardous duties attendant upon official duties and were not educated to the point where they could fill executive pisitions as well as men.
 He showed, however, that these con captions of a woman's position had gradually changed as women had be- came more educated and general en- lightment until the old ideas had given way to the modern conception that women are in all things the equals of men.
 The case will be appealed immediately to the court of civil appeals, Mir. Dick son announced. The only way to get it up to the supreme court from this jurisdiction is on certified questions. The supreme court meets next Monday for the winter term, so it will be a week before the matter can be considered.

JOLIET. H., Sept. 29.-"Angel Face Dickie" Loeb, who dislikes visitors and making chairs. and his pal in the mur- der of 14-year-old Robert Franks, Nathan F. Leopold, Jr., had their sec ond talk together Monday since they came here to spend the rest of their lives.
 Loeb. fretful and impatient. met his companion in crime in the prison chapel. Leopold, who has developed into the best rattan weaver At Joliet, was the more composed of the two.
 "When are we going to get out of here?" was the first thing Loeb said to Leopold.
 Get out? I didn't know we were going to get out" Leopold replied.
 Well. you never can tell Loeb answered with that peculiar supercil- ious smile that he displayed during most of the hearing before Justice Cav erly in Chicago.
 T don't think we'll be here forever" [" he added.
