The Mankato free press. [volume] (Mankato, Blue Earth County, Minn.) 1879-1924, 1893-03-03

In Wheeling the cost to the con-
sumner was Boz cents in 1891, exclusive
of interest and depreciation. If these
are figured the cost would be 81 cents.
The price charged the consumer is Is
cents, and the. revenue is sufficient to
cover the cost of all gas used by the
city and yield profit of $4,000
annually.
In Bellefontaine, O., the net cost of
gas to consumers is 81 cents, while in
the four Virginia cities outside of
Fredericksburg, which has only benin
operation Oneyear the average cost last
year was IS cents. This can be better
appreciated when it is understood
chat there are only seven cities in
Virginia lighted by private gas COM
panieS, five Of which are larger than
the four | mentioned. Out of these
seven, one, (NorfOlk), the price is lao
and IN the other five it runs from 81 go
up, averaging more than twice as
much as in the four public Lighted
cities. which means saving to the
people of those four cities of hundreds
of thousands Of dollars.
AS near as | can learn the price of
gas ia most of the smaller American
cities ranges from $500 to $500 per
thousand feet. In Mankato it is 3d. so.
These figures are certainly cOnvinc-
ing of the financial economy Of public
control of gas plants.
The paper was the subject of long
and interesting discussion.
w. B. Davies stated that the cost Of
putting in an electric lighting plant
would be but $4,000 in addition to
the plant already in. An excellent
quality,of gas could be made for so
cents 1000 feet, and he had been re-
liably informed that it could be made
for % cents per 1000 feet.
On motion of Gen. e. M. Pope, j..
T. McCleary, w. B. Davies and B. d.
Smith were appointed a committee to
ask City Attorney Young to see that
there is nothing in the new general
city charter being prepared at ST.
Paul that will prevent the city from

who had preceded him and taken mp
position aft. All at once Lieutenant
Young was grabbed by what appear
ed to be half dozen hulu girls, but
| afterwards turned out TO be half q
dozen of the attaches of the Chinese
ambassadors suite, who had known
the lieutenant In Lima, Peru, when
he was on station there several years
ago. After Lieutenant Young had
been Rugged until he thought he had
dropped into the midst of a ma
tive luau, he succeeded in extracat-
ing himself and explanations fol
lowed. Lieutenant Young was unable
to talk mandarin" but he CLEANED
that the Celestials hoped he was
to be a passenger, as they remem-
bered the dulcet songs of Peru, in
cited by the lingerings of champaign
frappee. Lieutenant Young turned
him with a sigh from the enchan-
tress, and informed the Celestial
attaches that he was enlisted to re-
main in Hawaii, pending settlement,
etc, OF the Hawaiian question.
At 6 o'clock the ships bells sound
ed, and the last visitors were soon
ashore. The silks of the mandarins
on the upper deck futtered, and
Minister Blount appeared against
the railing with leihala on his hat,
his eyes sparkling as he greeted his
friends, and his mouth as close shut
as ever. The good ship swung away.
The National Hawaiian band boys
played an air and sung O song In
native. The crowd on the wharf
shifted to get better view. Several
departing local celebrities on the
lower deck flung leis to brown beau
ties on the wharf and created great
deal of mimic fun but the eyes of
the crowd were concentrated on the
figure of Minister Blount, who still
stood sphynx like and mute on the
upper deck.
Suddenly the national band ceased
playing, as if by preconcerted ar
known figure of John E. Bush
doomed greedy and patriotic on a
convenient stump. His appearance
was expected by all who have lived
their year and day in Hawaii nei.
He proposed three cheers for Minis
ter Blount. They were given in a
desultory and quaverlng manner by
the royalists present. The Ameri-
cans present, who made up the bulk
of the crowd, looked at one another
and smiled. They appreciated the
fact that the royalists had again re-
fused to learn that international
etiquette does not include local poll
tics.
By this time the Gaelic had swung
nose onto the Iighthouse, and at wave
of the commanders hand from the
bridge the great propeller moved and
the Gaelic started slowly forward.
The crowd began to dispense. The
rain which had threatened for half
an hour began coming down in earn
est. The tug Eleu with the Hawaii
an band aboard followed the great |
ship to the entrance Of tha- Aasl-' 81
