Language of the Chaplain of the Oregon
Gets Him Into Trouble.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 5.-Ever since
the printed reports of the sensational
utterances of the naval chaplain, J. P.
Mcintyre, reached the navy depart.
ment, the officials have been making
a quiet inquiry into the accuracy of the
newspaper publications. The chaplain,
who was attached to the Oregon, and
was on board when the battle Of July
8 was fought, was accredited with
some savage criticism Of Admiral
Sampson, Captain Evans and various
others of the officers of the American
feet. Apparently the navy department
has now satisfied itself that the chap
lain really uttered the language
ascribed to him, for it has ordered his
trial by courtmartial on charges Of con-
duct prejudicial to good order and disci-
pline and unbecoming an officer. The
chaplain is now on leave of absence in
Denver.

MAYORS MESSAGE
To the City Council.

GENTLEMEN: -
In the message which l sent to
your honorable body last April ! re
ferred to the unsatisfactory financial
condition of the city, and said that
in common with most people l be-
lieved the principal source OF the
trouble to be the ex brilliant prices
paid by the city for light and water.
1t is time that this problem be
solved. In my Judgment there is
only one sure and certain way of
solution. 1t is for the city to own
the light and water system which is
so necessary t. the health, comfort
and security Of it's inhabitants.
It is not the city as a corporation
which would alone reap the benefits
of public ownership, but also the
large body Of private consumers. A
recent investi cation shows that pri-
vate co :sumers pay nearly $4,000
yearly to the corporation which op.
crates the present system. At full
contrac: rates the city pays about
5000 yearly for light and water,
not including street sprinkling and
light in city hall, which is about
1925 yearly additional. This makes
a yearly revenue OF nearly $1S,500
which ule company receives from the
city and from private consumers
yearly. This also takes no account
OF the profits on supplying lamps,
which are notoriousIy large, or OF
repair work. A revenue like this on
a plant estimated to be worth $780,
900, is very great.
The committee which has reported
tonight has given you good foun-
dation to build on. The next ques-
ton is: How is the city to secure a
plant7 I believe it would be agree
able to the great majority of the cit
liens of this place that the corpora
ton owning the present plant be
given an opportunity to sell to the
city at a fair price. Knowing what
a plant can be put in for and what
the present plant is worth, it GER
tainly would not be hard for the
council to make. a just offer, and
even were the offer several Thousand
more than the actual value Of the
plant, it would pay the city to Sc
cure it. In the event OF the company
refusing the offer the city should at
once take steps to build a plant.
The bonded Indebtedness OF the
city is now $4,000. The council
has power, under vote OF the people,
to issue bonds to the extent OF $780,
900 additional. Our assessed valua-
ton this year is $852,S22. An is
sue OF 100000 bonds would still
leave the city within the 10 per cent
Limit.
Trusting that your action in the
matter will justify the confidence the
people have placed in you. am,
Very sincerely
CHAs. E. VAsALY,
Mayor.

COMMITTEE REPORT.
40 the City Council of Little Falls,
MINI. 49,. IL
eEENTLEMEN: ~"- y"
Your committee, appointed to act
with the mayor in ascertaining the
cost OF system OF light and water
service for this city, report as fol-
lows:
We have, in this investigation,
smade use of the data gathered by the
sexperts who recently visited the city.
The figures we present are based on
n system giving as good o" better
sresults than the present one.
The Northwest Engineering Co., OF
st. Paul. has submitted a proposi'
ton to build an electric plant for
$4,000. This plant is to have ca
pacity OF 2, 500 16-candle power, in
~candcscent lamps and 26 arc lamps
of same power as those now in use.
This price includes everything nee
.cessary except power and power
house, as may be seen from the pro-
position, which is here appended,
marked Exhibit A." There would
be reduction Of 800 on this price
ii the power house is located on the
east side.
The Crane & Ordway Co., OF St..
Paul, will put in a waterworks plant
for this city for approximately $780,
OO0. Their proposition, which is
hereto appended, marked Exhibit
b. includes mains and laying them,
pump, $50 horse power engine, said
engine to run both light and water
machinery; in fact, everything neces-
:sarv, except power house.
Contractors in this city estimate
that the cost OF a brick power house
sgi bile for Il plant such as has been
described would not exceed 81 900.
The figures presented are the re-
SUIT Of careful computation and
study. In every case wide margin
was allowed. The companies max
1ng the propositions stand ready,
szEder heavy bonds, to carry them
*out. They admit, however, that
were bids to be received for putting
ia she plants, as the city will do if it
builds, the estim ates would be re-
<<1ueed several thousand dollars. Ac-
s.ording to the figures herein pre-
scented, the light and water SYSTEM
Row in operation here could be not
only duplicated but bettered, for
about $45, 900. In the estimation
OF your committee, and after careful
consideration OF the information re-
ceiyed, under bids a light and water
system suitable for the city could be
put in at a cost not exceeding $780,
900.
III eilis connection we would refer
e, the fact that two years ago Il
committee consisting Of Messrs. j..
q. Berg, F. E. Cawley and L. E.
Richard reported that in their judg
ment the plant could be duplicated
for about $40, 900 at that time.

propositions above mentioned, are
