HAD LIGHT TROUBLES ALSO.
The Manner in Which Salem Settled
the Lighting Question.

Astoria Is having the same experience
with the street lighting question that
Salem had two years ago." said A. w.
Prescott. CT the Capital City last
evening" in conversation with an Asto-
rian representative.
THE people OF Salem had been pay
ing $40 per month. per light. for 1000
candle power street lamps and the peo-
pie thought this was too much. They
were working under ten-year contract
with the electric light company and
were using IS lamps at an annual ex-
pense OF $500 per year. In the city
elections the issues were drawn upon
retrenchment and reform. with the re-
suit that the candidates pledged to a
reduction Of expenses were elected.
One OF the chief items in which a re-
ductlon Of expenses was demanded, was
that Of street lighting When the street
lighting contract expired in June the
reform council and the electric light
company were unable to agree upon
terms and all lights were shut off.
The city remained in darkness over
three months. when the light company
acceded to the citys demands and
agreed to furnish S5 lights at $5,95 per
light per month. The company is using
the 1000 candle power lamps yet and
we have reduced the annual expendi-
ture on account Of street lights from
$500 to $500 per year, or saving Of
$4,000 per year. After the first few
nights Of darkness no great inconven-
ience was experienced and although We
now have ten less lights than former
ly, no one complains.
"Our reform city council inaugurated
several measures which have mater
tally reduced our current expenses and
thus lightened the burdens Of the tax
payers. One Of these measures was the
making of a popular per cent loan for
the purpose Of refunding an outstand-
ing indebtedness of $4,000. of which
$65,OOO was principal, drawing s per
cent interest. This loan was so sue
cessful that II attracted wide attention
and was given favorable comment in
several leading papers Of the United
States. The bonds issued We're in small
amounts and were payable on call. For
this reason they were practically all
taken by small investors who reside in
Salem and the interest will consequent
ly remain at home instead of going to
Eastern bond-holders. 1t was predict
ed by able financiers that the popular
loan could not be successfully made
but the results were so satisfactory that
the Salem school board has recently
made a similar loan of $4,000.
"The council also made a reduction OF
$1,000 per year in the salary account
and reduced the police force to two
men-the chief Of police and a night
watchman. The peace and dignity of
the city has never been better main
tained than during the time in which
but one man has been guarding the
city at night. This is accounted for
in part by the fact that Salem has a

The vote follows:
THE HALF CENT.

A movement is on foot to put one
half cent coin in general use in the
United States. Several suggestions
have been made to the government, and
a document was presented, signed by
the heads of the big department stores
throughout the country, showing the
needs for this money in making change.

coUNcILMEN PRAISED.

ASTORIA. Aug. i1.-IEdltor Astorl-
anl-KIndly permit me space in your
valuable paper to say a few words OF
praise 10 our staunch city fathers for
the stand they have taken on the light
question In Astoria.
The general opinion OF the public Is
that the solid six are against having
electric lights. This is not true for. on
the other hand, they wish to supply
this city with an abundance OF arc
llghts An attempt has been made to
scare and bulldoze them on the ground
that the city would sustain great dam
age on the Fourth OF July and now on
the occasion OF the regatta. The indus
trlous petitlon-clrculator managed to
get less than two hundred signers on
the proposition to accept the terms Of
the light company, so that It does not
appear that the general public are much
afraid Of the consequences OF having
no lights, but seem willing to leave the
matter still with our worthy council.
We have been nearly three months
without lights and have got along.
which proves that they are only a
modern luxury. It is true that they are
great convenience, therefore our
council does not wish to be limited to
a few Of them. The city can operate
from l5O to 200 arc lights for about the
same price charged by the West Shore
Mills Company for sixty, as the power
would cost nothing and the only mat
ter of running expense would be for
carbons and tending the lights,
Our water commission have been re-
framing from building the plant hop
ing that the council would be able to
persuade the light company to run the
city lights more cheaply, but II the
company viii not do It the commission
Will establish the plant. The public
generally think that the reason the
commission has not established the
plant is that they could not produce
lights as oheaply as the home company,
This Is a grave mistake, as the water
commission are well aware that they
can build plant that can furnish
lights cheaper than anyone else can.
The public mistake for ignorance the
sympathy Of the water commission
with the council.
1t is very seldom that you find men
who will stand as much bulldozlng as
our solid six have STOOD They are to he
congratulated for their manly stand,
They viii probably give the home COM
pany a contract for one year at an ex-
tortionate price, as It win take the
commission some time to finish the
plant, which they will certainly estab-
lish.

TO ORGANIZE SOCIETY

Astoria will soon be in line with the

II is estimated hat there are over

OF the celestial kingdom in the cities
OF the Pacific coast. over one-half Of
these either belonging to the reform so
ciety. or having expressed a desire to
Join.
The intention Of the society is not 10

or 20 again rule China. but to further
their project by the collection OF funds
and also to petltion the several coun-
tries now taking an active Interest in
Chinese affairs to assist the emperor
The society promises. m return. TO in
sure peaceabla relations with the rest
OF the world, to permit the foreign
devils to 20 where and when they
please. TO build railroads and industries
OF all descriptions. without any resist
ance whatever from Chinese sources.
Those who are the principals in the
movement toward the awakening OF
China are natives OF the province Of
Canton and they claim that there are
no Boxers within the limits OF thar
province. nor are they even permitted
70 visit 1t. As is well known. the Box
ers are In favor OF the empress dowager.
Ding Poi states that the present Box
er troubles were caused by Lee Bing
Hing who, at one time, was the vice
roy at KaOw Chow. during the German
occupation OF that province. Lee be-
came wrathy when he saw the Germans
coming to the place and ordered the
Chinese general to go out with his
force to resist them. This. the gen..
eral refused to do. and Lee petitioned
the emperor to have the general killed.
This request was refused and Lee re-
signed his position and went to Pekin,
where he started the Boxer movement.
According to Ding Poi, the Canton
Chinese like the Americans, and are
willing to enlist in the army Of the
United States, providing they will be
sent to China to fight for the deposed
emperor.
