COL. BRAcKENRIDGE's VIEWS.
He Considers Himself Misrepresent-
ed and his Motives Impugned.

ed and his Motives Impugned.
4 few days since the LIGHT call
ed upon Col. George W. Bracken-
ridge. President of the San Antonio
Waterwork's company, for data to
be used in the annual Holiday edi-
ton of the LIGHT. In the course
of the somewhat lengthy cOnVersa-
ton that ensued Mr.. Breckenridge
expressed himself very fOrcibly as
to the treatment his company had
received at the hands of the city,
at the same time remarking that
he did not think that he had been
fairly treated by the LIGHT. AS
it is the aim Of this paper to treat
all men respectfully, treat all en-
terpriscs fairly, to nOught eXtenu-
ate nor ought set down in malice,
the LIGHT has here endeaVOred to
give in substance, not in form, the
presentation of the case as set
forth by Mr.. Breckenridge.
The position taken by the Water
works company is that in granting
them franchise for a term of
years with agreed upon rates, the
city has really entered into a bona
fide contract with that company
for the performance Of certain ser
vice. That relying upon the good
faith of the city he, Breckenridge,
had induced capital to take stock
in the enterprise, with the distinct
knowledge that for years the in
Vestmpnt would bring in no reVo-
nue.. but on the contrary would ne
Hesitate a constant and heavy out
| IaV. This condition has existed al
most for the entire term Of IL
wears durAg which the franchise
| has been in existence. For years of
! this time the officers Of the COM
pany drew no salaries, trusting to
! the latter half of the term for their
| remuneration, when the increase
of population, the larger outlay of
monies in putting in the mains
! having been met, would return a
| handsome revenue to the COM
pany. The peculiar condition of
the city was cited, the scattered
nature Of its suburbs, all OF which
are supplied with pipes, necessitat-
ing an expenditure. in the laying
of mains over a territory sufficient
to supply a population fourfo Id
greater than that now served.
That these mains are extended
over such large unbuilt spaces that
the water takers are only one to
every 100 feet OF mains, and that
the revenue from the water ser
vice does not now exceed six per-
cent upon the expenditures of the
company, while for several years
there was no revenue at all. That
a service which yielded three TAX
ers to every one hundred feet OF
main would be much more profit
able at one half the present rate
than the present rate now is. The
company contends that this eX-

having devoted its earnings to a
direct supply Of the mains from
the artesian we'll on Market street,
in accordance with the recommen-
datiOn of the Board of Health, at
the time that a visitation of chOl-
era was feared.
These land volume of other mat
ter, were presented, in which the
imputation of eXtortion was resent
ed very feelingly by Mr.. Bracken-
ridge. In fact it was this imputa-
ton that seemed to most seriously
wound him. He thus expressed
himself, grieVed to think that in
telligent men and the public prints
should so misjudge of the efforts
of public spirited men whose only
effort had been to give their
fellow citizens the best pos
Sible water service at a fair re-
Enumeration, and at the same
time to so build it up and extend
it that when the city should take
it in at the expiration Of it's char
ter there would be a perfect SER
that there would be little out
lay for this required for. years
thereafter, thereby insuring the
city a revenue from the service
at a low rate to the consumer, and
yet so cheaply to itself as to pro-
vide for it's purchase bonds with
out any perceptible burden to the
taxpayers and water takers Of the
city.
Taking this view Of the case, and
fortified with his facts and figures,
Mr.. Breckenridge thought that the
war made upon the company in
the city council and by certain
writer's for the city press was not
only uniustitiable, but that it was
intended to prejudice his case i'll
the minds of his fellow citi-
izeus, whose servant in this thing
his company had always been. His
last word to the Light was, 81 on
ly ask fair play and that all the
facts be known"

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER %, 1913

The Irish party have united on
division of the Paris fund. That
is about the only thing that it is
probable they will unite upon.
That party has bled Irishmen all
the world over to provide the
means for factiOnal fights among
themselves, to no good end in
furtheriug the interests Of Ireland.
it is about time that such wastage
came to a perpetual end, and the
Irish leaders at home thrown upon
their own resources in supplying
the means for intCrnecine strife.
When Irishmen in Ireland grow
more patriotic and less partisan it
will be time for American funds to
90 forward.

tension Of its service to
almost every section of the
thirty-siX miles square that
are included in the present corpO-
rate limits of the city, in order to
meet the wants of the suburbs and
thus facilitate their building up,
should not operate against the in
terests of the company, but should
be taken into consideration in cal
culating what is a fair and equita-
BILE rate for the water service thus
necessitated. That had the COM
pany not been called upon to thus
extend its mains it could have serV-
ed the present population of the
city, within the narrower limits of
a few years since, at half the pres
ent rates with greater profit than
it now receives. That it has met
every requirement of the city for
service and fire protection prompt
ly, regardless of the expense, and
that there is no city in the world
Of the population of this with so
extensive water service, or one
III any way lIS superior.
Mr.. breckenridge contends that
the company has met the city half
way in every effort for the increase
of it's water service, and this with
out any additional cost. That a
positive pledge has been given the
city that in no event will the water
charge to the city during the ten
years of the franchise yet uneX-
Dired be increased above the pres
ent rate, S32, 900 per annum, and in
the event of a system of sewers
being introduced there will be no
charge for flushing water closets
within the inner mile and a half
radius. Mr.. breckenridge COM
plains that these concessions
on the part of the company have
! been misrepresented and distorted
| into a confession of pXtOrtiOn in the
present rates, by the city admins
| tratiOn, and that nothing is farther
! from the facts. That it is for the
interest of the company to have
| the population consolidated as
much as possible, as all it's profits
arise from the increased number of
water takers along a given section
of main pipes. AS to the high
water rates charged in this city as
compared with those cited by the
critics of the company, correspond
ence was laid before the LIGHT
from other Texas cities. Waco
letters showed a rate One-half that
of San Antonio, but this rate was
declared to yield no revenue, was
"far too low" in the language of
the writer, and yet the takers in
Waco are more numerous to
each 1000 feet of main than
they are in this city. Not only
50, the Waco works are de-
rived from artesian supply,
necessitate no pumping, the native
pressure being the efficient motor
to supply a head. Mr.. Bracken-
ridge stated that the company had
| earned no dividend this last year,
