Ry .Maxwell Gorman
Raleigh. Jan. 9.?The Dillard bill
to repeal th l'. ? lative charter granttc;!
in 1900 to the Ca/ol'na-Tennes:ee
Power Coiuoany of Cherokee
County is seen us a hit of explosive
that will ignite the water power fight
for the General Assembly.
| As it now stands, the b;U has the
as; eel only of a local measure, but
with the history of the famous water
power fi;;ht of the 1921 s. sion
. Vividly before many of the members
a revival of Tenne -see and legislative
tumult is seen as a possibility

-entative.
Mr. 1>i 11 rtvd wants the repeal of
ino 1000 charter because he considers
it sa sweeping in its provisions
!that the bcn.-ficravy e.m exercise dol.inion
over all the undeveloped water
power interests of North Cr.iV)Fra.
According to western rcpresen1
tatives, the move for the repeal of
the Carolina-Tennessee Power Company
charter is but a continuation
of the primary fight of Cherokee
County. It was one of the contri!
buting factors to iuc defeat o? the
Republican senator in that erstwhiie
Republican stronghold, Mr. Dewar,
it is claimed.
The people up there are said to
'trcrjjiy the repeal of the law
^granting the charter. What interest
Kl
legislators here is whether it will go
! through as strictly a local measure
j'or whether it will furnish the niaie(
rial for another waterpower fight
