The operation of the light and water
plants from the same boilers would result
in great saving of fuel and labor to both
enterprises and would give the city de-
cided advantage over private enterprise.

Cost of installing plant about. 7so
$4,000
This would place in actual operation a
plant capable of furnishing ell the light
needed for any purpose. If you had at
your command an amount equal to that
which is paid to the Standard Oil CO. and
other sources for a period of two years by
our citizens of lighting, you would be in
position to at once pay for and install
plant that would furnish safer, better
and more convenient light It would be
necessary then for our citizens to enter
into contract with the proper persons to
AXE light from the proposed plant for at
period OF one or tive years, paying for
such service for four months i'll advance,
which amount would be rebated to the
users at some time during the life of the
contract. 1t is conservatively estimated
that such payments would yield f., 900,
which amount, together with contracts
would warrant the undertaking and Sc
cure the plant. The balance of the pur-
chase price would be paid out ofrevenues
above the operating expenses. The plant
Itself or parts thereof to be pledged to
the respective sellers for the balance due
on the purchase price, would relieve the
promoters from assuming any further OBJ
legation i'll this direction. If in your
Judgment it would be unwise for the city
to undertake the enterprise, convenient
alternative may be had by the incorpora-
ton of board of trustees, consisting of
three or five members, to act as promo
ters, execute contracts, and transfer the
property to the city when paid for. A
y :; : ~ ..eiy.1tages of this OF some sim.
liar plan would be to enhance the value
of the water works by lessening the cost
i'll operating; the securing for the city an
other enterprise which would materially
increase its income; the lighting of streets
and crosswalks where needed, thus add
ing to the safety of person and property;
the securing of cheaper light to our citi-
zens than could be hoped for from pri-
vate company or corporation.
These few subjects / have elected to
present 10 your good selves, without
thought or intention of i'll anywise dicta-
ting your course but that their mention
ing may be the means of crystalizing
your minds i'll a manner that will best
enable you to accomplish that for which
you were elected-the greatest amount of
good on to the city. l shall therefore in
common with other citizens of Pullman
expect of you a good report.
