importance is presented % tbs ei,l
of Chickasha by tic ainc dment q
S ctian 9 of the e.cetre iga fran
chise, now pending before th'
council.
The existing franchise a. Braht
el February IS, 1901 FRA p-rce
Of twenty years. Section . pse-
Y, les that the city shall use ten ar,
lights Of nominally two thousand
candle power and shall pay for each
light sfso per year, with the priv
ilege Of taking more lights at the
sime rate. 1t also provides that
the lights be located on poles rs
feet high. According TO Section 2
the city is to be furnished two
lights free. Since the franchise
was granted the city has taken one
additional light, making thirteen
now in use.
The proposed amendment pro-
vides that the city shall take not
fewer than thirty lights, two being
furnished free, with the privilege
Of taking additional lights in series
Of fifteen lights each, and shall pay
for each light $50 per year The
lights are to be run on a moon
light schedule" the lights to be
run at all times when for any rea-
son the moon does not afford suf-
hcient light" the city authorities
being the judge as to The latter
The lights are to be strung over
the centre Of the street il such
places as the street and alley com
mittee may designate.
II will be noted that the proposed
arrangement differs from the old
one in three important particulars.
It'provides for thirty lights where
the old one calls for thirteen
nearly three times as many. tire
duces the cost per light $40 per
mouth to S8-a reduction Of 20 pc Il
cent. AT the present time the city
pays SI52o per year for III Lights
under the new plan it willpay $40
sS annually for aS lights. The
third noticeable feature is the loca-
tion Of the lights, which places
them where they cer.ainly ought to
be and where they will afford the
best service. over the center of the
streets.
The moonlight schedule on
which it is proposed to operate the
lights has been found generally sat-
isfactory wherever it has been used.
There is no necessity for the lights
when the moon affords sufficient H.
lumination The company will
probably make as much at the re-
duced rates, but the city will get
the benefit Of the economy thus e.
fected.
Looked at from the point Of view
Of the city, the terms of the COM
pany's proposition are much more
favorable than the existing con
tract. It's open to only one objec-
ton, the series feature. If heeiiy
requires additional lights, it must
take them in series offifteen. How
ever. the city will need several
more series in a few years than ii
is prepared 70 take now, and there
fore this feature is not so objec-
tionable.
That the city needs more and
better lights is scarcely open to
question. The present lightning
bug arrangements perched on poles
are very unsatisfactory, Only
small part Of the town is lighted.
People III residence districts where
neither light, waterworks or sewers
extend have the right to demand
something from the city for the
taxes which they pay for these
proposes. Even thirty lights will
illuminate the city as it
should be.
The necessity for the lights being
