and power in the kennebec Valley. Thu
| new company is to be made up of practi-
| cally the same people who are now inter

| pany will have its plant in operation by
the latter part of the summer at the very
latest The plant is to be located on thu
banks of the Sebastcook where the Som
erset Fiber Co. owns a valuable water
| power a short distance above the dana,
| near which the pulp mill is now located
The plan is to build the power station
at that location. The water privilege is
very valuable, and it Is the plan of the
| company to develop it to its fullest ex-
tent and utilize this power by putting in
dynamos which will generate all the pow
err possible from the water power.
With the power thus utilized it is pro-
posed to light the towns of Benton. Ciin-
ton and Albion and in addition to this
furnish power for running the plant Of
the Somerset Fiber Co. in Fairfield.
The plan was originated some time ago
At that time the power used i'm rl,nnir.,
