About twenty years ago the Show
hogan Electric Light Company cover
ed it's poles, which had recently been
set on the south side of Water street,
with galvanized iron, from the
ground upward for about six feet to
protect them from being gnawed by
horses, when the poles were made use
of as hitching posts. 1t accomplished
the purpose, so far as the horses were
concerned, but it subsequently proved
that the decay resulting from the
moisture retained under the metal
covering was far greater than that
inflicted by the horses teeth. The
covering was subsequently removed
but the decay had progressed so far
that most of the poles in this section
referred to had to be replaced long
before it would otherwise have been
necessary. The last of the poles
which were treated in the manner re-
ferred to has come down this week.
1t was the one near the railroad cross =
ing and it has now been replaced by a
handsome new stick, 46 feet in height.
The cost of the pole with the labor OF
setting it and changing the wires is
not far from fifty dollars.
