Bountiful. Aug. 23-Tho bunch of Tel

Lake last week and sent John Dubei's
tailors TO the tall timber TO seek n we'll
earned repose. met an ignominious de-
feat at the hands of the Bountiful pump
kin-rollers yesterday afternoon. What
made the victory OF the farmers all the
more consoling was the fact that the
Coloradoans had been led to believe that
they would lind an easy bunch, because
John Dubeis aggregation had once upon
time handed It neat package to the
green-grocers from Bountiful.
1t happened in this way The Miners
utes stepped out into the held. Bounuful
did the same thing. then the bunch
from Pixies Peak found their man and
swatted -four good ones out beyond tne
danger line for three innings. Things
looked pretty sick Tor the farmers, but
IL was only a fake to lead the visitors
on, for that was all they got thereafter
and battery on their hands. Knocking

rUDpENHAM,s PROPOSITION.

Tuddenham finally presented a pro-
position which brought the council
together, He proposed that instead
of entering into contract With the
gas company at present for the entire
500 lights the city should contract for
500 now and II. after trial of 80
days, they prove satisfactory. then
enter into n contract for another 400
This seemed to please the majority of
the council and was therefore car
ried. The report will be drawn up
accordingly and will be Accompanied
BY written opinion from the city
attorney upon the question as to
with the Utah Light and Railway
company is still in force.

COUNCIL DECIDES
TO GIVE GAS TRIAL
SoIons Sitting as Committee OF
Whole Recommend SuppIant-
ing Of Electricity.
QUESTION AS TO CONTRACT.
Representatives of Competing Com
panlcs Rather Mix Matters Up
Tuddcnham 10 the Rescue.

After several hours discussion last
night by tho city council az n com
mittee of the whole. 1t was decided to
recommend that the proposition of
the Wolsbach company 20 install 300
gus street lights in this city be ac-
cepted and IL they prove SUCCESSFUL
tho city will install about 400 more.
The rate to be paid for the lights is
$32 per year each for the first three
years and $40 per year each for the
next three years The Utah Light and
Railway company presented a pro-
position to offset the gas companys
offer and attempted to tie the council
up in a contract. The company pro-
posed to install, in addition to the
present arc light system, posts for
incandescent lights along the streets
end furnish so candle-power lights at
$50 per year each for the first three
years and S2S per year each during
the next three years.
FERNSTROM F'AVORS ELEC-
TRICTTY.
and Railway company's proposition
as presented by John Montgomery Jr,
its contract agent. and made strong
fight in favor of the same. Black and
Martin strongly opposed the electric
light proposition and especially in view
OF the fact that 1t was simply an adj
dition to the present arm light system
in use. Mulvey also opposed the plan
and favored substituting the gas lights
for a certain number of arc lights as
contemplated in the Welsbach pro-
position.
Mr. Montgomery said that his com
pany contended that the contract with
the city for street lighting was still
in force but several of the councilmen
disagreed with him. They commended
that because the contract with the
company had not been renewed in
1905 it was not in force. An opinion
from the city attorney on that ques-
ton will be asked for
GAS MAN TALKS.
II. b. Lewis made a talk in behalf OF
the Wesbach offer and declared that
the Utah Light and Railway com
pany brought its proposition in simply
10 confuse the councilmen. His COM
pany, he said, would guarantee a 60
candle-power light and under pressure
the light would go to 80 candle-power.
He scored the light company for its
pc or service and said that its PROPOSE
ton was nothing more nor less than
an admission that its lights are made
quate. George A. Snow of the Utah
Gas and Coke company also made a
talk in favor of the gas lights and de-
clared that the proposition OF the
Utah Light and Railway company
OFFER was nothing but buncombe. He
said that If the city had paid for the
actual candle-power furnished by the
&C mpany 1t would not have paid more
than 80 per cent of its present bills.
AS TO the gas lights he declared that
they would be placed so as to furnish
light to the people and not TO the
stars.

Bonners Ferry herald. [volume] (Bonners Ferry, Idaho) 1904-current, 1907-12-21

THE county authorities recently
purchased a poor farm at an ex-
pense of $4,000. improvements
that will be found desirable will no
doubt run the expenditure up to
$4,000 in a short time. The coun-
ty probably secured good bargain,
and some Standpoint capitalists
probably succeeded in unloading
some real estate, the proceeds of
which will come handy in the pres
ent financial stringency. We do
not know as we have any criticism
to offer, but the thought occurs to
us that prudent business men are
at this time curtailing expenditures
and it might be well for the county
to do the same. The banks are al
ready disinclined to take county
warrants, and in most cases are ! e.
fusing them altogether. The ex-
penditures of the new county are
necessarily heavy for the first year,
but there are great many things
that it would be nice to have that
could be dispensed with for while
There is not a business concern in
the county that is contracting fol-
an extra dollar of expenditure that
can possibly be avoided. Taxes
are plenty high as it is. If, how.
ever, the county authorities feel
that the treasury is rich enough tC
stand it, some of their exrendi
lures which look unwise at THU
time may be all right. The Herald
does not know. II they are flush
we shall not begrudge the money
