LOGAN LETTER.

anything in your paper from this buro
or late, | take the liberty of writirg
you few lines upon the all-absorbino
question at present in this CITY. Two
years ago an election was ordered
citizens were called upon to cast Their
Dallots Tor or against bonding the citv
Tor an electric light plant Seventy.
fve per cent voted for bonding. Tho
plant was installed, and has been suc.
cessfully operated for one year. This
plant was through, by and for the sna,
cial interest and benefit of the citi.
zens OF Logan, not for part of them.
but Tor every soul residing here. every
taxpayer being a stakeholder in the
plant, their property is held as secur.
ity until every bond shall be redeemed
private plant owned and operated bv
the Telluride Power company was es.
tablished here some years ago. This
company is denominated by some as n
trust. AS soon as the people had voted
Yes" for bonding, they raised the
price for their light for 16 C. D. from
80 cents to rs cents, and as soon as
the city plant was installed and ready
for operation, they dropped the price
to 20 cents per light. Before the CITY
plant was completed, the city council
proposed to buy the Telluride pole
lines in the city, and offered $4,000
to get them out of the way. The ac.
tual value to the city outside of the
franchise would not have been more
than half the above sum. The offer
was refused, and the answer to the
people of Logan was, 1--WE will raise
the light from So cents to rs cents"
After the completion of the city plant,
the council made the company an
other offer of $4,000, which was also
refused This spring the council made
them an offer of $4,000. The answer
was 1--WE might take $35,O0O that Is
what it has cost us"
If the people of this city were united
and would stay by the beautiful Amer
lean principal of majority rule, there
would be no need of his dickering and
bartering. About two-thirds of the
people patronize the city plant, and
one-third the Telluride company.
are a few rich men, some who might
be termed bloated bondholders. These
people are very loud in proclaiming
the great friendship they have for and
interest in the common people, but &C.
lions speak louder than words. They
are supporting and encouraging the
trust against the people, and they do
this for revenue only.
The city, backed by the majority of
the people, is unwilling to give $685.
900 for less than $4,000 of actual
value. They propose to lower the
rate per light to 10 cents, and place a
two mill tax upon all assessible prop
erty in the city for running expenses
and interest. The above mentioned
rich knockers, and a few soreheads,
together with the subsidized press,
raise their hands in holy horror,
against this taxing proposition. They
say, "by all means, let us buy, let us
give them what they ask, let us not
be taxed" Now, if these pretended
friends of the people will tell us how,
and by what means, except by taxa
lion, they can obtain the $3.50 minus
he retainer that they wish to present
20 those foreign capitalists, they will
confer a great favor upon
A REAL FRIEND TO THE PEOPLE.

Buckwheat cakes and sausage are
combination. Just as soon as the
grain men get the farmers sowing
buckwheat we want to see the butch

subject of sausage. Sausage, as origi-

scraps; it was built up of the best por

to be eaten. Sausage was also intended
to be favored and seasoned with sage

Really we hope that this buckwheat

and buckwheat cakes always live in
harmony 1t would go farther toward

Mr.. Hays Improvement of heart action was
positive while he was at Bad-Nauheirn. and DR..

weeks work at Washington after his return
DR.. Groebel at this became alarmed and said
he must not work more than single day
Furthermore, he declined TO be responsible for
the results unless his patient took three months
Iest in the country.
At DR. GrOebePs suggestion Mr.. Shayne ac-
cordingly wrote President Roosevelt on June IL
repeating the warning. Dr. Groebel also cabled
to Mr.. Hays home at Newbury for full par
ticulars as soon as ne heard Of Mr.. Hays re-
lapse, but received a reassuring dispatch. It is
