POWER FOR PALo ALTO.
Peninsula Lighting Company to
Supply the Town.

PALO ALTO, July 16.-Affairs are shap-
Ing themselves so that cheap electric light
and power seem assured to the town of Palo
Alto. John ]. Levin, the local electrician,
says the Peninsula Lighting Company has
obtained a concession from the Blue
Lakes Standard Electric Company to fur
nish power and light in all the district
from San Mateo to Mountain View 1t
expects the current to be available at this
point within eighteen months. A sliding
scale of rates for current is proposed, ac-
cording to the time of day or night it is
used. From midnight to 4 o'clock p. m.
the current will be furnished so cheaply
that it will displace other methods of pro-
ducing power, even the gasoline engine
or water-power.
The Peninsula Lighting Company, it is
understood, will make a proposition to
the town Trustees to sell current deliv-
cred to any convenient central station at
rates that will make it advantageous for
the town to buy 1t.
There has been some talk in Palo Alto
of establishing public electrical plant to
supply power and light to the neighbor-
hood. If this should be done, and at the
same time the Peninsula Lighting Com
pany should furnish electricity. compe-
tItion would be brisk and rates would
petition ii is thought best by some of the
citizens to accept the Peninsula offer If
a good one be made although the people
appreciate that no private company could
close a public plant that could be run in
definitely below cost, should the public
so elect At any rate, cheap lights seem
assured.

ORIENTAL MART FOR
PACIFIC COAST PRODUCE
Secretary Of Agriculture Wilson
Comes Westward to Encourage
It's DEVELOPMENT.

TACOMA. July 16.-Secretary Of Agri-
culture Wilson arrived to-day and will
spend some time on the Pacific Coast
His special mission Is to encourage coast
agriculturists to supply the home demand
for their products and to push out as
rapidly as possible for new markets in the
Philippines and Hawaii. He finds that
Iowa is still shipping to the Northwestern
States quantities of butter that should be
produced here. He is anxious that oppor-
tunities for commerce with the Philip
pines and Oriental countries be speedily
embraced. He says President Mckinley
desired that ne make this trip and be-
lieves with him that the rapid deyel-
opmsnt of the Pacific Coast is the direct
result of the nations new acquisitions In
the Pacific Secretary Wilson SAYS:
THE Pacific Coast has the greatest on
portunity ever offered to any people. The
Agricultural Department is going to do
everything possible to aid in building I'm
Pacific Coast commerce. Congress wifi
give US all the money We need, and the
President wants you to feel that eyerv
thing his administration can do to helm
you will be done. We of the Mississippi
Valley have concluded that change is
coming. Our great markets will be west
ward rather than to the East What has
heretofore been considered our national
back door on the Pacific is now our front
door, just as the Capitol at Washington
had ITS front door fixed in one direction,
but finds now that the people do all the
business on the opposite side.''

was about six inches deep everywhere,
and we had heavy rainstorm part of
the way in addition. When we reached
Rensselaer, our makeshift repairs failed
us, and the machine had to be mended
before we could cross the bridge to
Albany. Otherwise the automobile
would have reached the capital an
hour sooner. 1t was dark, but we
managed to get in shape to end our
trip for the night in a comfortable To-
cality. We find many pleasant mes
sages awaiting us, and assure our
friends that they are very welcome"
AS to his plans for tomorrow Mr..
Davis said: Il shall have the auto
mobile cleaned and put in thorough
order at once, and expect to start by
noon I. the latest. I am told that there
is first-class ~oad from Albany to
Utica and we mean to make the most
of it. BY noon the effects of the rains
ought to have about all gone so that the
mud will no longer interfere with our
travel
In spite of the late hour ofNtheir ar
rival a large number of Albanians
gathered about the Hotel Teneyck to
view the automobile, which had asly
climbed the wet and slippery pave

DENVER, July 16-'I do not think
the trans-continental mobile will have
any difficulty whatever in crossing the
Rocky Mountains" That was the
statement made by State Engineer Nc
Cune yesterday. Mr.. McCune had read
of how%the automobile had climbed
Nelson's Hill. near Peekskill. N. Y.
IF there is no mistake in that ac-
count, the automobile will easily cross
Colorado" continued Mr.. McCune
THE State roads of Colorado do not
exceed fifteen per cent in grade, and
we are now building all the State roads
not to exceed a ten per cent grade.
There are in the State only few roads
of twenty per cent grade, and they
are byways. We do not designate them
as wagon roads. If the automobile
easily climbed Nelson's Hill. it will race
over the Colorado roads, whether in the
mountains or in the valleys 1 do not
think the carriage will have the slight
est trouble in gettino through this
State. There are so many different
routes it could take that 1t would be
difficult to say which was best. The
route can be selected after the auto
mobile has been given a little more ex-
ercise, and it is better known what 1t
can accomplish. The trip will be big
advertisement for Colorado, as it will
show the East that our roads are not so
bad as half of the roads in the East"
