The experiment of transmitting cleo
trio power from Folsom to Sacramento is
declared to be a complete success, only
ten per cent of the power created being
lost by transmission in the distance of
twenty-five miles. And already great
things are expected for the people of
Sacramento and vicinity from the enter
prise. Not only are all the present elec-
trio cars run by the force thus transmit
ted. but articles of Incorporation for
another railroad company have been
filed. This new company is to build a
road to Orangevale, distance OF twenty
miles, and the power is to be received
from Folsom. Work will be begun at
once and in few weeks cars will be rum
ming over the whole distance.
Such facts as these should set the own
ers OF property and the men of enter
prise in Santa Clara Valley TO thinking.
II electricity can be created by water
power and be transmitted from Folsom
TO Sacramento as cheaply as this, what is
to hinder the street cars OF san Jose from
being run by the water power in the
mountains around us? What is to
hinder the enterprising gentlemen who
secured such vast supplies OF water on
the inner coast range from at once utiliz-
ing 1t for that purpose? Almost un-
limited power could be secured in that
way, and the street-car system could
then be extended in every direction.

Sacramento IS happy, and with much
reason. The great water power OF the
American River at Folsom has been set
TO work generating electricity, and that
electricity has been successfully trans
mitted to sacramento, distance of
tweutythree miles, and with barely a
loss OF 20 per cent. in the power furnished
by the water. Half OF this loss of power
is sustained at Folsom in converting the
water-power into electric power. and the
remaining 10 per cent. of loss is sustained
in transmission from Folsom to Sacra-
mento. but this LOGS is of small conse-
quence when it is reelected that 50 per
cent. OF the power OF the falling water is
available twenty-five miles away for run
ming street cars and mill wheels. The
San Joaquin is likewise being harnessed
where it comes out of the MADEIRA hills,
and by January next it is believed that
abundant power Will be supplied at
Fresno for street cars and for manufact-
uring of all kinds. Kern River, too, is
being set TO work, ana not many months
will elapse before bakersfield will have
more power than she will know what to
do with. Finally and fortunately. move
ments are on foot for harnessing the ka-
weah River for the same purpose, and
probably within year we will have cleo
,ric power without limit available for
Visalia and Tulare. Gentle reader. the
world do move" and the great San Joa-
quin Valley will be quickly followed by
other successes as great and far-reaching.

SACRAMENTo's EXAMPLE.
Vallejo Chronicle.


The successful transmission of electrical
power from Folsom to Sacramento is
matter gratifying TO the people of Vallejo
as well as Sacramento. We are interested
to the extent, and outside OF our pleasure
in seeing the Capital City having good
thing, that now transmission is practical
we will soon, and we hope very soon, be
able to utilize the dormant opportunities
which are ours, and have our city not
only the best watered, but the best lighted
Of any city on the coast. We look upon
the forced loss Of time IN not at the pres
ent moment being able to utilize these
opportunities as q misfortune, response
bic not to tagging spirit among our
people, but to laws designed for the pro-
lection OF cities as well as for their bene-
fit. Vallejo at the present time is q gas
lit city. In this respect there is no COM
plalnt to offer against the service rem
dered. 1t is as good for the money ex-
pended as could be expected. But gas is
as far behind electricity as it is ahead of
the tallow candle, and in these times the
demand for the best to be had is made by
progressive people, who want 1t and
must have it. W When Vallejo decided to
have her own water works and was sue
cessful in securing the Hastings and
Wild Horse ranches. with their magnifi-
cent water rights and storage site, she
builded wiser than she knew. At that
time water was the prime consideration,
and to get an abundance at q proper ele-
vation was what she wanted. She was
successful in this. and now with her
water system complete, she has the added
resources, undeveloped, for one of the
finest electric light systems that the con-
cepton OF man could design for city of
Nallejo's size and future.
