Consumers Use Lamps
Longer Than They
Pay For.
o O'clock Contracts Violated.
In view ofthe Fact THAT the Company
Has Reduced Rates This Prac-
tfce should Cease.

The manager OF the company informs
the News that in many case persons who
have contracted for 8 o'clock rate have
allo wed their lights to burn until II
O'Clock and some even all night. This ia
not as it should be as it costs so much
per hour to generate the current Tor the
lamps and OF course the rates are made
accordingly and such conduct is not only
unfair TO the company. but it is also un-
fair to the other users as it would preveI
the company from giving the honest
ones the benefit OF reduction IN thefuture.
Some persons have even gone so far asto
prevail upon the employees oil the COM
pany to put in 80 candle power lamp
where only 16 candle power one was
paid for, II such practices are continued
the manager states that IN order to pro-
tect themselves bills will be rendered for
the regular rates chargeable to such
changes or the use of meter will be
called into requisition Co properly coyer
such changes. They are reprepared ro give
their patrons frst-class service and to
treat them properly and they naturally
ask their customers to do the same with
them.
1t is claimed that about per cent OF
the average lighting bills will cover the
cost of lamp renewals, but to make it
doably satisfactory to their patrons the
have make reduction in the
rates for commercial lighting not of 10
per cent. but of about 13 per cent ON
both meter and fat rates and in addition
have put the lamp renewals down to
factory cost which should be very salts
factory to their customers. Hereafter
all lamp renewals will have to be paid for
as there will be no free lamp renewals Gu
fat rates
Oh course there will be limit to the
reduction OF rates, but thecompany hope
that the present reduction will bring an
increase OF business and that none OF
heir customers will take more than they
pay for hch with the use OF any new
aad improved appliances which are likely
20 come into the market, will enable
hem to make further reduction in the
uture. % |
