LET THERE BE LIGHT.
Vol. XII.

A movement is on foo, to establish an
electric light plant in Coalville. A pc
tition asking for a franchise was presen-
ted to the city council Monday night
signed by @. A. Callis, T. L. Beech, and
others. 1t IL the intention Of the petit
TONERS to make thorough canvass Of
the town and try to get the people to
take as much stock in the company as
possible, and then II enough is not se-
cured here outside capital will be oh
tanned.
It would be nice thing, indeed, for
the people to take hold Of this PROPOSE
ton and push 1t through. A plant could
ke put in here and maintained at
small cost, perhaps cheaper than in
most places, and we believe it would be
paying investment. The people are
the ones who should own and control
Affairs Of this kind, and II We cit around
and let some one come In hers from the
outside and put in plant. we cannot
blame anyone but ourselves. 1t Is true
there are not many people here who
have enough money so they can take
stock in company Of this kind, but
there are enough who do have the nee
cessary cash, but are not willing to in
vest 1t in such proposition. Conse-
quently there is always some opposition
here to a movement that lie started and
advocated by the people. How to over
come this we are not able to say.
Quite a number OF our prominent cit
liens are bitterly opposed to the idea OF
letting outside capital be brought here
for the purpose Of installing an electric
light plant, bat in agreat many cases
their reasons are not justified. Let Vi
suppose that company from Salt Lake
came here with money to put in $1,000
or 5000 plant, and they took the power
on into Salt Lake, would the people here
have TO pay more for their lights than
IL they owned the plant themselves
We think not, nor perhaps as much. /
the people themselves put in plant
they will have to take enough lights t'
keep the thing going, and perhaps thu
lights would cost them a great deal NOR
than they ave now paying for oil. Will
on the other hand II the plant was own
ed by Salt Lake concern and 1t was no
depending entirely on the support
would get here, the company could Of
ford to let us have light at REASONABLE
figure. II we thought the price was to
high, there would be no compulsiol
about taking the light.

Senator After
Slot Machines
Purposes Introducing Bill for
Their Regulation at Next
Legislative Session.

Nickel in the slot machines are be.
coming altogether too numerous. This
at least. is the conclusion which ha,
been reached by prominent member
Of the Oregon legislature. who holds
down a seat In the upper house and
represents his constituency In one OF
the large counties OF the state,
II reports are to be relied upon. and
there Is little reason. II any. to doubt
them, this gentleman is to offer n bill
at the next session OF the Legislature
which will make matters extremely bad
for the slot machine owners. The bill
will be fashioned after the law now In
vogue in the state OF Washington and
1t will be quite as severe in melting out
punishment to those who violate its
terms.
1t win provide that all persons oper-
ating nickel-in the slot machines shall
upon conviction, be deemed guilty OF
felony.
Recently an Astorian talked with the
senator who will prepare the bill for
presentation at the next session OF the
legislature. The senator said he had
not the slightest idea the measure
would not pass; indeed, he seems TO be-
lieve that there is popular demand for
the measure and that Il will receive the
support necessary to It's enactment. He
is stated to have been a member OF
the legislature for a number OF years,
but explains that he did not previously
introduce the bill because the machines
were operated only in small numbers.
or late, according to his version OF the
matter there have been altogether too
many machines. The Legislature suf-
fered the slot machine owners to do
business on a limited scale. but so
numerous have become the devices that |
the need OF law which will cure them
Is deemed necessary.
over In Washington they have very
stringent law, and ever since It's enact
ment the slot machine business has |
declined. Operators have kept dis
cretely out Of the reach Of the strong |
arm Of the law, for they do not relish
punishment for violation OF the regula-
tion, which is specifically provided.
The Washington law has been sue
cess and the senator with the antl-slo |
inclinatlons feels that Oregon
can do just as much toward eradicat-
Ing the evil. 1t was suggested to him
that the state might not make any
more progress with the nickel-ln the
slot machine proposition than with the
measure, but the sena-
tor said he did not share this belief
that the bin would be 80 framed as to
leave no possible chance for violation
Of It's terms. Indeed, he said It would
make IT absolutely imperative upon the
state officials to enforce its strict
terms.
A more definite announcement as TO
The terms of the proposed bill is ex-
pected shortly.

standing the city is by far the largest
buyer OF lumber, the mills require Il
to pay greater prices than are charged
individual buyers and outside parties
and he was of the opinion the council
should take some action to protect the
taxpayers who keep up the streets
Mr.. Hansen tacting mayor)-That
is matter which rests with the street
committee.
Mr.. Belland-I am of the opinion the
council should authorize the commit
tee to advertise for bids for lumber, or
take some action that would make it
impossible for the mills to mulct the
taxpayers.
President Hansen--A resolution is
necessary to carry out your idea in
this matter. believe the suggestion
is good one and that some action
should be taken.
Mr.. Nordstrom-It seems to me the
mills ought to give the city the pref
erence. We buy the greatest quanti-
ty Of lumber. and warrants are above
par This should be consideration.
Mr.. Leinenweber-It appears to me
we could accomplish nothing by ad-
vertising for bids. in view of the fact
that all of the saw mills are in COM
bination which has for its object the
regulation of prices. The mills have
agreed to make the city pay more for
it's lumber than individuals are re-
quired to pay.
Mr Burns chairman Of the street
committee)-It occurs to me that the
mills are not going to bid against each
other in this matter. and it is my opin-
ion we would merely be out the cost
