about $4,000 of electric light indebted

it the heavy village tax of this year was
levied. Taxpayers can materially aid
in meeting these obligations by prompt
payment of village taxes. We have an
electric lighting plant that cannot he
eXcelled, and we are all proud of it.
Last year the plant paid about 5000
above all running expenses, including
the extensive and costly repairs on the
dam, and charging up nothing what
ever for street lighting. We have 81
street lamps of 1900 candle power each.
About the lowest rate paid by any town
for such lights and in such quantity is
$50 per light per annum, which would
amount To 81 900 per year-what the
village would have to pay 10 a private
corporation for lighting our streets as
it is done at present This shows a bal
