The Wddsworth Light and Power
COmDdDV.

The WadsWorth Light and Power
Company is a corporation Of which H.
D. Esden is president. H. w. Esden
is the superintendent. A canal five
miles long taking water from the
Truckee river that distance west Of
Wadsworth, with AS feet Of fall, is the
source Of the power. The power house
with its machinery, dynamos. water
wheels and etc. is on the bank OF the
river. The company has title to 5000
incheso Of water with which modern water
wheels will generate all the cheap power
that any industry in Wadsworth will
ever require. The company furnishes
the town with electric lights and with
water for domestic purposes. Near the
power house is a storage reservoir that
will hold several million gallonsof water.
No other industry that could be es-
tabIished would show as much progress
for a town the size Of Wadsworth as
the light proposition. That such a
plant has been established here we feel
will lead to larger industries and en-
courage others to make use OF the
snlendId cheap power that the flowing
water of the Truckee furnish. Plon-
GERS in constructing such a plant as
thew have we hope the Wadsworth
LIGHT & Power Company will flourish
and other avenues for the utilization OF
mower will be opened up to them
