The big tight in the IIouse will be on the' gronnd that if the cities of Tacoma, Seattle or Spokane insist on selling surplus power outside the city limits in competition with the privately owned power plants, they shouhl be willing to put all of their utilities umler the supervision of the: public service commission. This, it is pointed out by Pierce county rep- resentatives, would mean that Ta- coma would have to pay about $75,- 000 in taxes ion the utilities and would be restricted in the distribu- tion of current. There is also a nmor again of the establishment of a monster ste plant on the Tacoma tidefl.ts. It is reported here, and those interested in le proposed plant have already applied to the ci:y of Tacoma for power rates. NORTH DAKOTA North Dakota is now paying the piper. It has danced for several .years to the tune of state socialism, It has defied economic laws by its Non-Partisan ]ague program. Now it must foot the bill. There is nothing inherently wrong with North Dakota. It was merely unfortunate enough to permit men to ccpture its state machinery and attempt to put into practical oper- ation wild theories of government, the same theories which some of our good friends of the Third party tried in vain to get this. state to adopt last fall. It is not 'clear what has happened in North Dakota. But 32 banks have failed and the state is now calling loudly for $6,000,000. If it gets this it is announced that the day will be saved• But strange to say there is some reluctance to pour this amount of money into the cracked jug of state socialism. In- vestors and bankers do not care to take the risk and North Dakota has spent all its funds in its wild finan- cml spree. This is apparently the headache on the morning after.--Tacoma Tribune.
