KENTUCKY EDITOR
ASKS INFORMATION
Writes to City Controller Con-
corning Richmond's Mu-
nicipaI Light Plant.
A FIGHT ON AT PADYCAH
CAMPAIGN BEING WAGED ON
LIGHT PLANT THERE AND
RICHMOND is USED BY coRPo.
RATION INTERESTS.

Down at Paducah, KY, they are hav-
question of increasing the capacity of
the municipal lighting and power
plant. The majority of the people
seem to favor this move, but the cor
poration interests are fighting it with
all their energy. Yesterday City Con-
troller Omer G. Whelan, received a
communication from the editor OF the
Paducah Morning Register, who is an
ardent supporter of municipal owner
ship. He asked for information con.
corning a report received in Paducah
that the municipal plant in Richmond
was failure and that the city intend
ed to dispose, of the white elephant"
The letter in full, reads as follows:
Dear Strive are having a red
hot time over the municipal owner
ship question in this city, and an ally
of the corporation interests in an ait.
ernoon paper yesterday stated,
Richmond Ind, five years ago spent
100000 for an electric light plant and
that it had recently closed deal for
it's sale for the reason that it had lost
great deal of money.
LAS the statement sounds SO unusu-
AL and desiring to get at the facts and
history of the case, l ask you to give
them to me by return mail, and If pos.
sible send me copy of the last report
of your city on the lighting plant.
Yours very truly,
JAMES E. WILHELM"
Mr. Whelan's answer to this request
was to secure three copies of the Pal
ladium, containing the report of the
investigating committee and forward
ing the same to the editor of the Reg.
lister. Il guess that will set to right
the report current in Paducah con
corning the Richmond municipal light
ing plant" remarked Mr.. Whelan aft
er mailing the copies of the Palladi

A cruel phase of the freight block
ade in the northwest has been brought
home by this week s cold snap and
storm. Dispatches to The urnal
from the two Dakotas tell a story Of
depleted coal bins and of we'll grounded
fear that stocks of fuel cannot be re-
neWed under the present traffic system
In time to prevent suffering in MANY
quarters.
These dispatches show that while the
fuel shortage is not a general menace,
the situation is unusually acute at some
places. Several towns in North d.
kota have no coal at all, and others
nave put the most meager supplies. In
the district along the Missouri river,
ignite, the native coal, is being used
by al classes, thus largely solving the
problem IN that region. To the east
OF the Missouri and north to the bound
airy it is the same old story of orders
unhlied, tho given early last fall, and
OF shipments delayed in transit for
weeks and even months.
... Cut Both Ways.
Like a two-edged sword, the car
shortage is cutting both ways. The
farmer cannot get his winter Is supply
OF fuel for the same reason that he can
not get to market with his wheat. The
dissatisfaction and hardship in the one
case may yet be almost forgotten in
the suffering that a prolonged fuel
shortage will entail. The possibilities
of the situation, now that winter has
fairly set in, Justify apprehension and
even alarm on the part of those with
out adequate fuel supplies. - s@5 = :
b e urnal's advices are
from well-distributed points in North
Dakota stnd from all of South Dakota
except the Black Hills. Correspond.
ents in principal points were directed
to ascertain conditions in towns with
IN radii of fifty miles. BY this system
a vast territory has been reported. In
North Dakota the grain cong estion. and
the coal and wood famine are unmis-
taxable. In South Dakota the danger
appears more in spots.
The Dakotas as a whole were never
80 prosperous. Paradoxical as it may
seem, however, thousands and thou
sands of farmers in the northwest can
not. because of the existing freight
blockade, find market for the grain
they have raised and are wondering

Mr.. Townsend believes that by this
