THERE WAS NO SPECIAL
MEETING OF THE COUNCIL
World-Herald Article Sunday Was
Wrong In Every Particular
Council Meets Tonight.
The following dispatch, under
a Plattsinoiilh dale line, appeared
in Ihe World-Herald Sunday,
every statement of which is con
trary to facts:
"Al a special session of the
cily council lasl evening, called
to consider Ihe recommendation
of the Commercial club as to
granting an extension of fran
chise to the water company for
Ihe term of twenty years, vvilh
Ihe privilege or recalling the same
at the end of five years, was turn
ed down."
There was no special session
of the council; Ihe Commercial
club diil not recommend an ex
tension of Ihe water franchise,
and Ihe proposition was no dirti
ed down.
There was an informal gather-
u,g o. nnmciin.en .n ..ounc, an
Dwyers otlW Friday night ; Ihey
discussed various pnases 01 me
new franchise vshich Ihe water
company is asking, and decided
to give Ihe question thorough in-
vesligation before acting. The
resolution of the Commercial
club does not recommend that Ihe
council pass the franchise. The
resolulion slales I hat it believes
the rates in Ihe franchise are
reasonable and asks the council
lo lake action on Ihe franchise
without unnecessary delay.
The council will meet in regular
session tonight and will probably
take up Ihe question of the ordin
ance, though from slalenicnl
made by some of the councilmen,
it looks as if il will be referred to
a later meeting for discussion.
Municipal Ownership.
We are not opposed to munici
pal ownership of public utilities,
if Ihey could be controlled so I lull
everyone could be served alike.
The people of Plal Ismoiil h have
had a trial in running the light
ing plant and went in Ihe hole
many Ihousiinds of dollars. They
have not forgotten the result of
municipal ownership in Unit case.
"What is everybody's business is
nobodv's business," and it seems
that is about Ihe way Ihe light
ing plant was run. Those who
net led cheap light didn'l get it
migiit prove I lie same with Ihe
cily owning Ihe water plant.
Study the matter over, dear read
er, and we believe ou will come
to Ihe same conclusion Unit we
have that under the manage
ment of private parlies, with the
rales just as liberal as Ihe cily
could possibly furnish lliem, what
is Ihe use of Hie cily bolhering
wild Ihe plant ?Plallsuioiilh
Journal.
The above is worthy of con
sideration. The writer simply go
on lop of Ihe fence and sal down,
and we believe that is a good
place fr many more. In regard
lo municipal ownership our sister
cily has had considerable ex
perience, and the people are not
anxious lo again burn their
lingers. The News is not opposed
lo municipal ownership of public
nlililies, under cerlain condi
tions, but there are limes when
private ownership is preferable.
