Did you know that the city Of La

lights than any other municipality
in the state Of Colorado? Did you
know that the La Junta Electric
Light Company will make a strenu-
Gus endeavor within the course Of the
next few months to renew its light
ing contract with the city for a
period of years the longer the bet
ter. Of course. Don't you think il
would be a pious idea for the city
council 10 investigate the electric
lighting proposition in other towns
in Colorado before renewing the
street lighting contract for a period
Of years, The city Of La Junta is
paying sl3 per month for arc lights
Of 1000 candle power. or sl5S per
annum for each and every street
light. There are nineteen lights
which cost the city s2s7 per month
or s.. .Sss per annurf. We have on
file in this Office letters from tbs
city clerks Of twenty different towns
in Colorado replying TO a series Of
questions propounded as to the cost
Of street lighting. price Of steam

from which replies have been re-
ceived include Trinidad, Pueblo,
Durango. Canon City. Ouray. TeIlu-

Fort Collins. Leedville. Georgetown.
and many others The cost Of IN
