The regular bi-monthly meeting of the
Clackamas Improvement club was held
yesterday evening In the Grange hall at
Clackamas. A goodly number of resi
dents of the vicinity were present, and
communications were received from dif
ferent improvement clubs that had Just
been organized, consisting of Logan,
StOne, Sunnyslde and Harmony. All
these clubs are working together to get
an electric line into Portland. An esti
mate of tonnage Is being gathered, and
statistics showing that an electric road
will be a paying proposition from the
start. A communication was received
from the Hill lines, which bo far was
very satisfactory. They requested that
the residents procure the necessary data
which will be presented shortly.
Some of their members also had an
Interview with a party respecting a Chi
cago syndicate who has looked over the
country and' given assurance that his
report to the eastern capitalists whom
he represents will be favorable to build
an electric line throughout the entire
east side from Portland to Mullno, pass
ing through tho Harmony district, the
state target grounds at Clackamas, and
through East Clackamas, Viola and Lo
gan. He says they will construct a sub
stantial road and the rolling stock will
be of the best.
The secretary was Instructed to eon
fer with "the parties who have control
of the coming apple and agricultural
exhibit In Portland and apply for space
for an exhibit of the products of Clack
amas. The business of the club was placed
In the hands of the different commit
tees having charge, and no meetings will
be held except at the call of the chair
until the first Friday In September. In
the meantime the transportation' com
mittee will keep In touch with the motor

CALIFORNIA RAILWAY COMMISSIONERS
WARN CITIES OF THEIR DANGER
In an opinion rendered this month, the State Railway
Commission of California in commenting upon competi
tion between public utilities giving a similar character of
service in cities, stated:
"We find in thi territory, as we have in others, that
the patrons of public utilities SHORT-SIGHTEDLY MADE
COMPETITION POSSIBLE to secure a temporary advan
tage, WHICH ALWAYS RESULTS IN A PERMANENT
DISADVANTAGE.
"Aslo competition within cities, WE WOULD EARN
ESTLY CALL THE ATTENTION OF THE CITY AU
THORITIES TO THE DANGER."
A situation similar to that pointed out by the California
State Railway Commission is up for consideration of the
people of Portland, in the application tor a franchise by
the Northwestern Electric Co., to create a new electric
light and power system. This will duplicate the one .
now in existence, which is conceded to be large enough
to meet all demands.
With the power to regulate rates, service and valuation
in the hands of an Oregon public utility commission, the
burden of a duplicate investment ties the hands of the
authorities from putting into effect a lower rate, for years
to come.
