A movement is on foot among our

"Let There Be light.

EDITOR TRIBUNE: Some time in
the remote past a resolution was be-
fore the city council, and passed,
ordering an arc light placed at the
intersection of East Second street
and Steen avenue. The reason as
signed for delay in the work was
lack of funds. Your correspondent
read in the last issue of the great
family journal the treasurer's re-
port, which shows the city to be
ahead of the hounds, financially,
several thousand plunks. A light
at the point named would accommo-
date several thousand benighted
