The water and light commission filed
its report with the city council last
night on the petition OF certain citi-
zens OF Dilworth. asking that the city
of Moorhead supply them with elec-
tricity for illumination purposes.
In substance the report was to the
effect that the commission could not
recommend the running Of lines to Dill
worth under existing conditions. But,
IL the people Of Dilworth should per-
feet a system of incorporation and the
latter should undertake to enter into a
contract to take a specified amount of
electricity, at the city limits, at a
price to be established, then the COM
mission would possibly be in a position
to make a recommendation to supply
the light, not otherwise.
