FREAK BILLS
Until lately the legistive session has
been gratifyingly free from bills in­
tended to hamper industries and pub­
lic service. O f late such bills are be­
ginning to appear.
One member evidently thinks that
telephone and telegraph tolls are not
high enough now, so he proooaes to re­
quire a time guarantee on messages
and assess double damages for fsilure
to deliver within the guaranteed time.
The effect o f such a law, even if sus­
ceptible o f practical enforcement,
would be to so heavily increase the
cost o f telephone and telegraph ser­
vice that rates would have to be raised.
There are some more bills in o f simi­
lar import. The members who intro­
duced them are green and are entitled
to the benefit o f the doubt as to their
innocence— Oregon Voter.
