monthly trip to inspect the electric light
plant at Dickinson, of which he is one of
the owners, savs that while he under.
stands that an application is before the
city council for a franchise for a pros
pective rival plant. the Northern Elec-
trio Co. will not attempt to oppose any
thing the council, as good business men,
think it to their interest to encourage.
The Northern Electric Co. propose to do
everything possible to give the best of
service at the lowest possible rates, and
with this end in view have arranged to
double the capacity of the present plant.
1t is obvious that a city of $500 people
cannot support two electric light plants
and that eventually good service cannot
be furnished without fair evenu and
profitable returns on capital invested.

Albert Kahl, the notorious character
who arrived in Minneapolis, and who
but a short time ago was released from a
f~ve-years' sentence at Saltwater, has no
! connection whatever with our Gus Fin
ger, Notwithstanding the fact that he
first gave this as his name. Gus Finger,
who was formerly superintendent of
schools Of this county, and who is now in
the employ of Mcdonald Bros, Of Min
neapolis, as bill clerk, is we'll known in
western North Dakota, and to have his
name associated or made use of by such
a character as Kahl has caused him no
little embarrassment. Kahl was arrest
ed in Minneapolis for stealing and gave
the name of Gus Finger as his proper
cognomen.
