EIEcTRlc cLIoHTss AND WATER
= ,ggl;g t5g WORKS.

Apetitiop was being circulated last
Monday asking the council to submit to
the voters at the coming election prop
osition to bond the town for $4,000 to
$4,000 for the purpose Of constructing
a municipal electric lighting plant and
waterworks. The promoters OF this pro-
ject believe that the plant of the War
wick Electric Manufacturing Co. may
be purchased and be put in first class
shape for small outlay; The pond will
furnish the foundation for a waterworks
system, and that the two enterprises can
be operated together for very little more
expense than one alone. The town has
in its possession specifications for lay
ing, mains through. the streets,
as a result Of previous waterwOrks agi-
tatiOn, so that the cost Of engineering will
not be excessive.
The advantages to the citizens and vii
lage from these improvements will be
many. We are conscious of our sadly
deficient protection against fire and the
superiority of electric lights for street
purposes was demonstrated during the
short period last fall that the Warwick
people lighted the town. Merchants will
be rejoiced at any improvement which
will relieve them Of the heat produced
by the large lamps now in use, to say
nothing of their care.
The petition, containing one hundred
and nineteen names, was presented to
the council at its session last Monday
evening and was referred to the COM
mittee on fire and water. The discuss
ion developed the fact that the legal
complications existing which must be
adjusted before any disposition is made
of the property of the Warwick Co.,
would require year or more to settle.
The value of the plant, to whoever is
its owner; depends upOnthe terms which
are made with the corporation 50 that
the council will have every opportunity
either to buy or grant a franchise as may
seem best. When the title to the prop
erty in question is determined, it is ex-
pected that definite proposition Of some
kind will be made to the town, and there
will then be no uncertainty as to the
amount to be expended.
