Dear Editor:

Dear Editor.
Attorney General Olsen being charged
with contempt of court for telling the

New York of 1875, numbering 10000
inhabitants. was governed by William
Cosby, a man of limited intelligence.
imperfect education, no prudence what
ever and more than his share of greed.
pomposity, and bad temper. He con-
trolled the only newspaper the NEW
YORK WEEKLY GAZETTE, and would
allow no criticism of his authority and
expressions. Finally, opposition to his
government established paper Of
their own with John Peter Zenger as
it's editor In this paper. the NEW
YORK WEEKLY JOURNAL, Cosby and
his clique were ridiculed, AS a result
Zenger was Jailed and so set the stage
for the first great trial that established
Freedom of the Press in the colonies
Zenger's case argued by Alexander
Hamilton established the proposition
that truth was perfect defense against
charge of libel. Prior to that day it
was held that any writing that dis
quieted the minds of the people even
though il was true was libelous. Bv
the ZenEer case, with truth prevailing
as a defense and shield against unjust
oppression, democracy as we know il,
was advanced immeasurably."

Cheap Government Power
By E. ]. PARKINSON, Great Falls
(In Two Parts-Part y

Yin Two GdTCS-GdfC -
Murder will out" nd Truth
crushed to earth shall rise again." For
many years now, we have had it dinged
into us that the private utilities were
gouging and robbing the public and
that cheap government power" from
government power plants was our only
chance for relief Also for the last
several years, many columns and pages
of newspaper space has been devoted
to telling us how we were being
gypped and robbed of tens of thousands
of dollars by the wheeling contracts
between the Bureau of Reclamation
and the Montana Power Company. My
best information is that the contract
is in existence only to save face for
the government and not a single kilo-
watt hour has ever been transmitted
under it. The reason why is perfectly
simple. Although the REA Co-ops have
kept it Deep dark secret for the
last six years, the private utilities
have been furnishing practically all
REAs within their service area with
power for no more and generally less
than CHEAP government power" rates.
1t has been asserted by persons un-
informed on the subject of power, that
if the government had constructed a
transmission line from Canyon Ferry
to Great Falls, rates for government
power to REA Co-ops would be substan-
expenditure of hundreds of thousands |
of dollars of taxpayers money for the |
construction of such a line would not |
have affected rates in the slightest |
Both firm and non-firm government |
power is available now and has been |
available for six years to REAs any
where in Montana within the service |
area of the private utilities. and at |
uniform price, regardless of whether
they receive the power l mile or 300 |
miles from federal dams. The reason
the REAs have not taken advantage
of this is that they can get the same
service from the private utilities at
the same price or less and with less
red tape and inconvenience.
Montana Power Co. rates in the
Judith Basin for instance, is 1 mill per
XVIII less, and in the Musselshell River
Valley mills less than the cheap
government power rate by the Bureau
of Reclamation. Any increase in rates
for power at federal dams charged 20
to private utilities would increase
power cost to REAs accordingly.

Ed Booth, Helena attorney, an
nounced this week that he will be
a candidate for Associate Justice Of
the Montana Supreme Court. He is
a native Montanan, and graduate
of Montana State University.

varied experience in the practice of
law. He practiced in Winnett for four
years and served one term as County
Attorney of Petroleum county.
He moved to Glasgow in 1885
where he engaged in the general prac-
tice of law in partnership with his
father. He also served three years
as Deputy County Attorney of Valley
county. He left Glasgow in Septem-
Der, 1941, when he was called into

After his discharge, Booth was ap-
pointed Secretary-C for the
Montana Railroad Commission, posi-
ton he held seven years. Since 1853
he has been in private practice in
Helena.
AS attorney for the commission, he
successfully participated in an action
in the Supreme Court of the United
States, involving Interpretation of
the motor carrier fees which resulted
in additional fees of about one hum
dred thousand dollars per year for
Montana.
He was also successful in his par
ticipation before the Interstate Com
MERGE Commission, the Federal Courts
and Supreme Court of the United
States in proceedings to avoid aban-
donment of the Montana Western
Railroad, and in proceedings in the
state courts and United Supreme
Court to retain operation of Mil

Harlowton and Great Falls. He par
ticipated in the Wool and Mohair rate
case before the Interstate Commerce
Commission, resulting in a saving to
Montana wool growers, and appeared
in nearly all of the Elk Parte rate
cases where he opposed increases in
rates involving Montana.
He participated in the class rate
