The proposed amalgamation of the
|stanstead and Island Pond Electric Light
Companies and the joint construction OF
Substantial electric light and power plant
.on the Clyde river at West Charleston is
bald to be reasonably sure of consumma-
tion. It is said that for week compe-
BENT Montreal engineer has been quietly at
work preparing plans and estimates
lille no "oficial" statement has been
made, he is said to have expressed an
opinion that twelve hundred horse power
can be developed. If this is so, an album
iant current is assured for both the Island
Pond and Stanstead systems. If the
scheme is carried out, which now seems
REASONABLY certain, construction work will
be commenced as soon as possible, immed-
late funds being raised by the issue OF
k3O 900 in bonds. The plant will be OF the
most substantial character with modern
Equipment throughout. 1t will have du-
olicate dynamos so that no interruption OF
service would occur in case OF accident
lThe plans include day service for power
purposes should there be a demand for
Blectrc power at either place.-StdnStedd
