Mr. Albrecht said that In grunting tho Terminal Uallway franchise, ho thought ho was offering an Induce ment for railroads to como In hero and tho community would derive n great benefit from It.

Ho suggested that a .provision In tlio franchise for furnishing cold wn tor bo eliminated ns this might pos sibly Intorforo with tho city in caso tho lattor should Instal a municipal syatom. City Attorney Gobs and othera said that It wns doubtful about tho lattor being any especial honollt to Chandler becauso thoro wns no Bourco of water supply in Mint nrea. Mr. Cobs said that somo cities had threo water supplies, ono cold wa ter for drinking and ono hot water and the othor water for gpnornl us uges. However, tho cold wotor was with drawn. Messrs. Winkler and Copplo dif fered nbout tho peoplo being particu larly Interested In tho francblso be ing only thoso In tho nrea affected.

Mr. Albrecht said that ho did not caro about Im posing It In tho beating frnnchlso so much ns on tho others. So far as competition wns coucorned, ho Bald Mint ho did not seo It In that light. Under tho now law which regulates rates of public utilities, bo claimed that tho Railroad Commission fig ured the money that a company paid out for a rival corporation as part of the orlglnnl Investment on which tho Income had to pay lntorest and profit. He said that Portland was example of this. Instead of trying to got a competitor, he thought that tho rato situation would bo hotter handled by nn appeal to tho railroad commission. . , .
