Electric Lights for Leesbtire.

From all appearances now Leesburg is
to to have light on the question.
At the last meeting Of the city council
the question of lights engro~sed almost
the entire time of the session. propo-
sitiOn was submitted to the authorities by
the Albany Power Co., who own ths big
water power at Albany, to extend line
to Leesburg and furnish power at a cost
of construction If $4,000, the city to own
the line, and the company to furnish the
power to the city and to private pa ties
at stated price under The voltage sys-
tenn. This proposition did not meet with
very much approval, from the TACT that the
cost of construction would place too
much Indebtedness upon the city, and the
matter was held open pending an investi-
cation of the cost of private plant of
sufficient power to light the city.
An order was passed authorizing the
street committee (who were made ex-
oficio the light committee to confer with
the Albany Machinery Co. as to the cost
OF plant, and, if they deemed it advsa-
able, o make'a contract with that con
Germ for the construction of a plant of
sufficient power fol the city's needs. 1t
is now up to the street committee to act
II we are rightly informed.
Other small towns that we could men
ton enjoy the conveniences of good
lights at small cost to the municipal gov
eminent, and we see no reason why Lees
burg should not. 1t sounds ou1y reason
able to say that the reveAue from mean
descents to private parties would nearly,
if not FULLY, meet the expenses of opera
ling small plant, and the city's lights
would come cheap. We need the lights,
and plant of our own appears to US to be
the cheapest and most satisfactory
method If obtaining them.
