Yours truly.
n. r.. POLLARD. Jr.
I'm reply 10 M Poilard's first couteu-
tion. we have only 70 say that the PAS
scngcr and Power Company is a respon-
sihic corporation. and can be made 70 live
up to an its contracts. TO refuse 20
make "a contract with Il which is so man
ifesty 90 the advantage OF the city
simply because the company has injured
our water pipes. and is not willing to pay
more damage than IL is compelled 20 pay.
would be about as unwlse as for citizens
TO refuse 10 ride on its cars or TO use it's
electric lights for the same reason. The
( Passenger and Power Company does not
want the city TO erect a municipal plant
for manifest reasons. and II the city
should make a contract with it for cleo
trio power clearly it would be in Tie
interest Of the company to give the city
a satisfactory service: otherwise the city
would cancel the contract and erect its
own plant. the very thing that the Pas
senger and Power Company IS trying to
prevent.
Mr.. Pollards second contention seems
TO rs TO have as little force as the first
Does he mean to say that We could not
legally restrain the Passenger and Power
Company from destroying our water
power? But II We could not do so with
out a municipal plant. how could we
protect our rights with n municipal plant?
suppose we should erect a plant. and the
Passenger and Power Company should
90 as Mr.. Pollard forecasts-divcrt the
flow OF water and ruin our water power
what would then become OF our electric
plant? And from what source would we
get electric current 10 do our extra
pumping and light our streets? In the
words OF Mr.. Pollard can We take this
chance? II the Passenger and Power
Company is going 10 steal our water
power. would It he good business for the
city to spend s15o.OOO TO erect an electric
plant which would depend on this power
for its lifee
But this contingency. in either event.
is too remote to be seriously discussed.
The question is whether or not IL is wise
for the city 10 go In debt to erect n
municipal plant when il can purchase
from the Passenger and Power Company
al the current it needs as cheaplv as il
could make it?
