The reporter dropped in to hear the
band practice one evening this week and
saw some things that impressed him
very favorably. The first was the per-
feet order and attention given to the
leader. Second WAS the large number
present at the practice, somethere about
twenty-three out of the total Of twenty
eight, and the absent ones all accounted
for with good reasons. That kind OF at
tention and attendance means very
much for the success that they are strive
ing for. With present practice they are
already capable Of doing some very fine
playing. and next summer will be able
to do work that every citizen of Pembina
will be proud Of. Mr.. LaMoure is an
ideal leader, both unsteady and IN dis
cipline.

Of the greatest interest, North Dakota
received considerable attention, because

committed an unprovoked assault and
that sympathy for his wife and child had
saved him from conviction, and hoped it
would be good lesson to him to let

IN reality it should properly be charged tc,
repairs, for i forms part of the cost of the
light
When We first heard rumors of the
contemplated project of the munici
pality, we recalld having said so
mething similar to the above in ahe
course of the criticism made bv MS,
in the matter of the balance arrived
at in the government printing shop,
which is painful suggestion of
what weuld undoubtedly be the case
with the municipal electric lighting
plant.
And the very same things which
We pointed out in analyzing and
showing the true and exact financial
showing Of that indefensible indus
try, which has brought so much
discredit on the InSular Department
maintaining it, Mr.. Cordova calls
attention to in his examination and
analysis of the annual reports of the
municipalities in the United States
which have adopted the system of
municipallation OF the public ser
vices.
If the annual reports are read of
those municipalities in the United
States which maintain municipal
lighting plaDts-says Mr.. Cordova-
there would be no doubt as TO the
mea sure OF their success.
Everything indicates beneficial
results, but it is because the reports
of the municipal plants never show
the true and real cost of maintenance.
In these reports the amounts paid
by the consumers are credited to the
plants, and the cost of maintenance
charged, the difference being called
a profit.
The sum annually paid by the
Iclty for the interest on the bonds
issued is not taken into account,
neither the annual sinking fund, nor
the deprccia tion in the value of the
plant; the expenses for repairs to
machinery and the electric lines
insurance and other necessary and
inevitable expenses, which it is ne
cessary TO consider in order to arri.
We at the actual cost of maintaining
the industrial enterprise, do not figu-
re in these reports, because such eN-
penscs are all indispensable charge
lagainst the different services. Were
all these items taken into account,
the annual reports wauld show loss
insteaG of a profit.
Our weighty ediles must by this
, time have seen how useless and
farcieal is the attempt to keep up the
appearance cf the desireability Of
their pet project, when it has been
conclusively proved that similar pro
iects in other countries have turned
out to be complete failures.
