DEMOCRATS FEAR KLAN STRENGTH IN CONVENTION Holt Confident of Nomination —McCulloch-Dur-gan Combine Seen. Fear that the Ku-Klux Klan would repeat its victory in the Republican State convention by controlling the 'Democratic State convention next week was expressed in political circles today. From one source it was stated confidently the Klan would have at least 700 Klan or pro-Klan delegates, or a majority of the total of 1.202 delegates. Others placed the Klan delegation as low as 200. Among the candidates for Governor no one is more optimistic than Olin R. Holt. Kokomo attorney. Holt was one of the surprises of the primary race and nosed out Dale J. Crittenberger, Anderson, for fourth place. Holt declared today he was confident he would win the nomination in convention. “I know where my delegates are and I will win starting from the first ballot,” Holt said. Will Get Klan Support While Holt declares he is not a Klansman nor a Klan candidate, it is generally conceded he will draw the bulk of the Klan delegates. Holt declares he has indorsement of the State Federation of Labor, the AntiSaloon League and the State exhibitors’ association. If check-up of delegates does show a majority for the Klan, the race for nomination might possibly lie between Holt and Senator Joseph Cravens. Madison. While neither of them have come out for the Klan, they are not anti, and other leading candidates have definitely alienated Klan support through anti-Klan declarations. Organization leaders, however, are confident the Klan strength is overestimated. Omer S. Jackson, manager for Dr. Carleton B. McCulloch, Indianapolis, remains firm in his statement McCulloch will be safely nominated on the first few ballots. Durgan May Combine George R. Durgan, Lafayette, who made the primary race as definitely anti-Klan, is expected to line up with McCulloch if necessary to defeat Klan control. Crittenberger headquarters declare other candidates may be treated,to a surprise in the Crittenberger strength. Elmer Posey, Evansville, said to be backed by the Klan, has announced his candidacy for superintendent of public instruction. John Etzold, Huntington, is a recent candidate for reporter of the Supreme Court. , Arthur J. Hamrick, Clayton. Fifth district chairman, and John Heller, 1 tioned as candidates for secretary of State.

"I did not hTe to go through strennro* exercises nor rub myself with absurd creams, which generally put on flesh instead of taking it off. I did not wear weakening garments, nor torture myself with diets, i was fortunate enough while in Europe to find out the secrets with which millionaires, French actresses and beautiful women of Paris keep their figures siender.

How the State Makes the Rates for y Different Classes of Utility Customers
Merchants Heat and Light Company yesterday gave a little lesson in these columns on the way rates for Public Utility Service are made by the State. Did you get that expression, reader, MADE BY THE STATE? Not made by the Utility Company, not made by the User, but made by the State’s officials, appointed for that purpose, and chosen because they and the Staff they maintain are considered to be Qualified and Disinterested Judges between the Buyer and the Seller of Public Utility Service. These men act as Judges between Buyer and Seller, before the Service is Rendered and the Debt Incurred, to settle the Price which must) be paid for Public Utility Service; just as the Judges in the Civil Courts act to Determine in Disputes between Debtors and Creditors what One owes the Other. Sometimes Both Parties to these Disputes “Cuss” out the Judges and the Juries, but that doesn’t impair the value of the system of administering justice. It is the best we have. Yesterday we showed that the Purpose of State Regulation of Public Utilities was to distribute the cost of such service, with the greatest justice, over the users of the service, in proportion. The Kind of Use divides Public Utility Customers into classes. For instances: The “Owl Car’’ user wants a special service, which doesn't pay the Street Car Company, and is only a Public Accommodation. So he pays Double the Regular Rate. The Frequent Telephone User gives the Company more frequent opportunity to Earn Money from his Demands; so that his calls in excess of the average are charged at a lesser rate than the average. The Party-Line Telephone User is content to wait if his fellow-users of the line get into action first; so he gets his service at a lower rate than a Single-Line User. •The Industrial Gas User—and it would be a mighty good thing for the School Boys and Girls who Don’t Know what Gas is used for in the Industries to go into some of the factories and find out—calls for Thousands of Feet of Gas an Hour, Hundreds of Thousands in the Month, with only One Meter Reading, One Ledger Account, One Collection a Month, and he gets a Quantity Rate for Gas, because of the Smaller Expense he creates in connection with his Demand, compared to the Smaller-Volume' Domestic User. The Street Car User who buys Strip-Tickets gets a reduced rate because he Simplifies Collections, is Tempted to Ride More, and Does, and because he loses or destroys a certain

number of his tickets, to the profit of the Company. Experience has classified all these kinds of users of Public Utility Service. And the State takes this into account in Making Rates. Clearly a separate rate couldn't be made for everybody. That would be endless confusion. So groups of customers are classified. This is just, so long as the classification is sufficient to throw into each group those customers whose group costs are not essentially different. A -just classification will, therefore, establish separate services having essentially different reasons for creating the cost of the service to the Utility. Under State Regulation the cost of service provided is reflected in the Price Charged to the Customer. In the business of Providing and Selling Electricity there are at least six different classes of service, the cost of each of which to the Utility differs from the cost of every other, and each of which, in justice to the Customers, must be figured at a separate rate, based upon the cost peculiar to it. These classifications are: FIRST: Residence Lighting, which has certain characteristics of its own, one of which is the small number of hours of use. SECOND: Commercial Lighting, in which the hours of use are quite different from those of Residence Lighting, and where the maximum individual demand and the maximum group demand are coincident. THIRD: Standard Power Use, in which further classification is made along the lines of sizes of the demand, each group of sizes having a relation to the cost of furnishing the Service. FOURTH: Primary Power, which is delivered in bulk at some central point of use, and is used for long hours, thereby contributing most to provide income for the investment, and reacting beneficially on lighting and standard power users’ rates. FIFTH: Municipal Street Lighting, which is a class by itself, calling for a large investment in facilities for a special use. SIXTH: Other Public Utility Uses, which include sales to allied companies. The Service of Every one of these groups calls for a Separate Calculation of the Costs, and the assignment of these costs to the individual users who compose the group, in proportion to their demand and their use.
