Everyone is desirous of securing the investment of new capital in development enterprises. lOveryone wants to encourage industry and new projects, but at the same time a square deal should be given capital already invested. 13efore a franchise is "ranted auv public service cor poration the public, should be assured that the applicant is sound financially and able to carry out its promises. A franchise should not lie merely an sisset for promoters to sell stock or securities upon in' distant states. Moreover, if a franchise is valuable to the comimnv. it is also valuable to the city out of prospective earnings . i ...i .i. . ..t.i ... . i grained siioum provide not .but also, at its expiration, provide for purchase or other ..,.....! ........... 1... itw, ..: .. ..oil.. l: i .!.., . ! . i iu-(iiii.-iiii-iii, i v iiircnv, in plant. All public utilities should be owned eventually by the nuuiicipaUtics, when conditions justify their acquisition. Medford is in no shape finaneiallv to own anv of these J 1 i i i ill j i t a iiuiiucs, excepi waicr, ai. tne. jnesent time, nor nave Allien cans, like the (lennans, developed sufficjient efficitsney in municipal affairs to justify public ownership, but this is the uUinmte goal for which avc must work. Public utilities are natural monopolies, and all such monopolies should be. under public ownership, its they .al ready arc under public supervision. As a result, rates'tl'iat are paid by consumers are fixed by (hastate public utilities commission and are based upon the, value of the plant and cost of operation, so as to render a fair return upon tho in vestment. Bedford's experience with the telephone is the experi ence of all muuicipalitics with rival public service corpo rations. To secure a loot hold or a Irancliise, rates are re duced by one or both of the competing companies. Moth lose money. lOveutunlly one of the concerns buys out the other and rates are raised higher than before. TJte public has to pay interest on both investments and previous losses. In the next few luonths the state public utilities com mission will hold public hearings to fix the rates that can he charged for light and power in southern Oregon. Com panies will submit schedules, of plant valuations, which will be checked by ex icrts employed by the commission, which has already made a physical valuation of the plant. Tho city and public am the corporal ion will have abundant opportunity to state their cases. After complete and thor ough investigation, the coinmissio.n will announce rates that it deems just and fair to both public and companv 1 mi . . . ,;.i .. ;il aiai iiiin Hcncdinj! win govern telephone charges. In .July the controversy between the city council and the power company over tlio repudiation by the city of the franchise granted the company, will be threshed out in tlio federal court and a decision reached, after which it is sin cerely to be hoped that a friendly contract, fair to both city and company, be made.
