COMPANY REORGANIzED.
Electric Co. Gets a Home
Made Charter.

The Oakland Electric Co. has been
recognized and it's capital increased.
The new officers elected are as follows
dent, John N, Weber; treasurer, Will
liam T. Haines; clerk, E. l.. Meader;
directors. H. D. Eaton, j. n. Weber,
G. Fred Terry, Waterville; w. M. Aver,
Oakland. The capital has been in
creased from $780, to $4,000 A part
of the property and franchises of the
Messalonskee Electric Co. have been
purchased by the reorganiZed company.
This new move will work practically
as would Il charter for the Messalonskee
Electric Co., which was refused after
n fierce contest by the Legislature, the
past winter. BY selling a part of it's
property to the latest company the
Messalonskee Co. will get the desired
working capital. The men behind the
scheme are among the most substan-
tial of the local business men and
something doing in the electrical line
may be expected before many moons
and another very interesting chapter
has been added to the local history
of electric companies.
Walter S. Wyman will continue as
general manager of both companies
and Hon. Herbert M. Heath of Augusta,
will be attorney The plan of reorgan-
ization was worked out by Mr.. Eaton
and Mr.. Heath and it is believed viii,
serve just as well as charter from
the Legislature for the Messalonskee
Company.
