Vote for
the Electric
Franchise.

Next Tuesday is the day on which
property owners of Bleeker will be
called on to vote for the electric light
franchise, and we find that there are
some misrepresentation as to the scope
of this proposition.
The thing is simple enough. 1t is tn
grant franchise to ]. W. Rigby lone
OF our citizens and taxpavers) to erect
and operate an electric light plant in
Meeker for n period of twenty wears.
Back of Mr.. Rigby is a company Of
Denver capitalists, who have the money
to carry out the enterprise.
At the present time. such an entsr.
prise will not pay, but the outlook and
prospective growth Of Meeker is 80 en-.
couragiug that these men are willing Ia
invest their money with the hope Of
getting 1t back with the steady and
substantial growth of the town.
Every up-to-date live town has
electric light. Meeker is up.to-date in
everything else. Why no. In this
matterP
Under the franchise. neither the town
government nor citizens will be Obliged
to take electric light il the prices are
not as low as the lowest. Prices must
be right to get either public or private
patronage.
The proposition is in line of advance
ment, therefore, THE HERALD sup
ports it.
