(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, July 5-Special.)-Tbe right
of cities and towns to make telephone
rates ns. a condition ot the granting of a
franchise has been raised in a 'contro
versy over the right of the Tolk County
Telephone company to raise Its rate from
Jl.tO for business phones and $1.00 for
reildence phones. The complaint which
is made by William J. Marquis, o mer
chant of Stromsburg, through County
Attorney Victor Wilson, states that on
March t 1902, tho city of Stromsburg
granted a franchise to the Golden Boo.
Telephone company with a provision
that th rates should not be raised, above
the abovo amount.
The company accepted the franchise,
but, later assigned, its rights to the Polk
cpulity company, the contract havlna.
therein an assignment clause. The com
p'alnt asks that the railway commission
ipakd the Polk County Telephone com
pany stop charging tho raise.
AkW tar Ilntc Hiilar.
The McCooU Irrigation and Water com
pany wants tb Increase its maintenance
charge from tt to 2 per aero and has
filed an application to that effect with
tho state railway commission. The com
pany operates In Bed Willow, and Hltch
cock counties and claims to have In
vested 3O,CO0 In the plant. It Is set fprth
that during the last tour years It ha&
expended siSes.. in operating cxpenaei,

the expense ot keeping up tha dltchcu
nnd removing tho earth which frequcntb

putual water rights covering over 22.000
acres, which is all it can supply undet
