Twin CITY ELECTRIC CO.
DECIDE TO PROCEED WITH PLANT.
Directors Instruct Officers to Raise Money
for Preliminary Work. Electrical
Expert Coming from Chicago,

Two special meetings of the directors
Of the Twin City Electric Co. have been
held the past week at which all the
directors were present. The special
business before them on these occasions
was to receive from w. E. Mack of the
Central Electric Co. an inventory OF
his plant and to consider proposition
for the purchase of same.
The directors aforesaid were greatly
disappointed to learn that Mr.. Mack
could not make any definite PROPOSE
ton as to terms or price at which his
plant can be bought. He seems to con-
slider it aD impossible task to make an
accurate inventory Of his stock on hand,
and he has thus far declined to name a
price for his plant. Mr.. Mack has
promised, however, to submit a sched-
ule within few days, at which time
another meeting will be called.
The Directors Of the Twin City
Electric Co., recognizing that our peo-
pie are anxious for relief from the
present disagreeaDle electric lighting
tangle, have decided to proceed with
the institution of plant regardless as
to whether negotiations with the Cen
trail Electric Co. can be consummated
or not. They have instructed their
officers to raise money necessary to be-
gin preliminary operations and an
electrical expert will come from Chicago
soon to confer with them as to several
different propositions in view.
The Twin City Electric Co. has been
acting conservatively in this matter.
Now that they have decided that it is
time to move, they should have the
hearty cooperation and assistance of
our citizens and will doubtless receive
IT.

Arrest of Spurious Coin Manufacturer.

f. w. Scrompton, farmer living near
Loyal, this state, was taken into custody
by Deputy [. S. Marshal Meehan Oh
Tuesday for the alleged passing of coun-
terfeit half dollars. When arrested a
large number of the spurious coins we're
found in his possession, but search of
bis house and premises failed to disclose
anything to prove that he had made the
money. Scrompton claimed to be inno-
cent Of the charge, said be was drunk
and did not know when or where he
got the coins. Statements made by
him later tend to the belief that bis
arrest may lead to the breaking up of a
gang of counterfeiters who have been
operating in the small towns Of Wood
and Clark counties. The man was taken
TO Madison for trial.
