A colon was incorrectly inserted into the proofs in the following sentence on page 2 of this article:
Because these customers were also voters in California’s new referendum process, the quarterly dividends they received were bound to pay dividends of their own: back to the company whenever measures regarding public utilities came up at the ballot box.
The sentence should read as follows:
Because these customers were also voters in California’s new referendum process, the quarterly dividends they received were bound to pay dividends of their own back to the company whenever measures regarding public utilities came up at the ballot box.
The publisher apologizes for this error.
