Arg-us Says that There Should be No More Monopoly on Water ttan There is on Air and Sunshine. RANEY'S BILL MEETS WITH OP POSITION Brookfield owns its water plant. Ifc has done so for years and it is well satisfied with city ownership. During the last municipal ownership campaign Chillicothe the CONSTITUTION published statistics from the Brookfleld plant, showing that the city waa paying nothing whatever for its fire protection The Brookfield Argus of this week says: "And now Chillicothe, our enterprising neighbor on the west, is going to vote again to bond for a new water works system. It wil be remembered that over a year ago an ejection was held in Chillicothe to vote to bond for one hundred thousand dollars for water and electric light.

The proposition -at the time carried by large majority, but the old water company, composed non-residents, which has forced Chillicothe to pay tribute in an extortionate price for water for many yeare, went into court, and upon a technicality, the court declared the election an illegal one. The proposition will again car ry, no doubt, and the people triumph this time. The CONSTITUTION is leading the fight for municipal ownership of public utilities the same as it did at the previous election. If there is any one particular utility that should belong to the people, it is the water works. When it comes to foreign capital selling the water to God's that too, at a monopolistic price--as is invariably the rule--the question always arises, what are the people doing to allow it? There should be no monopoly upon the supply of water, any more than there should be on the supply of air, light or sunshine.

"A good law for the Legislature at Jefferson City to enact is one giving the municipalities of the state power, in accordance with Governor Pclk's suggestion, to acquire, own and operate their public utilities whenever they may deem it expdeient to do so. "These utilities--water, gaa. electric lighting and so forth--are necessarily monopolies, and the people of the cities towns should have the right to own and control them if they deaire so to do for their own protection. Argus, on behalf of Brook- fleld, sends greeting to Chillicothe. May the proposition again carry at the polls, as it should in the interest of progressive Chillicothe, is the greeting Brookfield sends." Fat Salaried Officers Declare Would be Hardship to Make Them live at Capital.

Senator Fred introduced a joint and concurrent resolution i i a amendment to the constitution whereby ihe liability of stockholdors in all corporations, including banks and rust companies, shall be liable Jor double the amount of the stock held in i came. This resolu- ion was introduced in lieu of a bill contemplated by Senator Hudson to double the liability of stockholders in banking institu- ions. Finding that it-would take constitutional a to exact the change, Senator lad to bring it about by a joint esolution.

Jefferson City, Jan. sentative Raney's bill to regulat charges of railroad companies in transferring freight cars from spurs and sidetracks to maid line was reported favorably by the House committee on railroads, which he is a member. His bill to require the railroac commissioners to reside at the State capital was temporarily sidetracked. Commissioners Knot and Oglesby appeared before the committee and protested against the measure, saying it would work a hardship on the commission.

Raney made a plea for the bill, contending a as the railroad commissioners a large salaries from the State they should devote their time to the State's business instead of remaining at their several i a at Joplin, Knott at Hannibe.1 and Oglesby at Warrensburg, attending to their private affairs. It remains to be seen a Senate will do with the Representative Raney presented the petition of tho citizens of Sampsel and Bedford for mainlining station agents at those two Wabash points. He says that if the raili'oad commissioners do not show a -disposition to do some- ihing he will take another a out of them on the floor the House, Representative Raney thismorn- ng received a communication rom Curator Archibald McVey in hillicothe, against any legislative investigation of the tolla School of Mines, of which iapt. McVey is one of the managers of the board. Capt.

McVey tates that the investigation two rears ago was a detriment to the School of Mines. The Chillicothe lurator is friend of Presi- bent Ladd Rolla school and deeply interested in the School Mines. No action was taken today by he railroad commissioners on the petition presented by ive Raney in behalf of the citizens of Sampsel and Bedford. Neither of the commissioners is in the city and they are tupposed to be at heir homes in various parts of the state.
