Manager A. L. selig replied:

Manager A. L. Selig replied:
"The real reason is that there
is a rival company in Redlands
which makes it necessary for us
to maintain those prices. Did not
this competitor exist, the charge
to the consumer would be about
the same as in this city"
AT six cents per kilowatt hour
do you sell electricity at loss in
Redlands?'
mo, l shouldn't say we sell It
at loss; on the whole, there is a
profit, but the use Of electricity
there is mostly for power purposes
and comparatively small for light
ing"
There is little prospect for COM
petition worth anything to the con-
sumner in Spokane, even with the
Groves people owning power
house, and the only hope of OBJ
tanning it is through a city plant.
The Edison manager gives COM
petition as the only assurance OF
cheap light, and also indicates
that there is an understanding
among the three Los Angeles COM
panies that prevents real COM
petition there. Yet the people are
kicking on nine cents, when the
best remery Mr.. Ralston can fig
ure out for Spokane Is a reduction
to 10 cents, and he couldn't ap-
prove of the idea of city lighting

WHAT RALST0N
OVERLOOKED
HIS 10 CENT ELECTRICITY
IDEA LOOKS SIckLY BE.
SIDE THE RATES CHARGED
IN LOS ANGELES.

In his report on the city light
plant question City Engineer Raj
ston argued that Spokane would
be especially favored If the w. w.
P. Co. could be induced to reduce
its price to the private consumer
from 10 cents per kilowatt hour
to 10 cents.
Down in Los Angeles the three
big light companies there have
been called on the carpet by the
council to explain why they should
charge Los Angeles consumers
nine cents per kilowatt hour when
they are furnishing smaller towns
with current at the rate of six
cents.
One of these companies brings
current from steam generating
plant 35 miles away. Another has
a water power plant 100 miles
from Los Angeles.
Yet with water power station
in the center of Spokane a charge
of 10 cents per kilowatt hour is
tolerated and the city engineer
would consider all necessity OF
competition eliminated could the
w. w. P. Co., favored in location
and economical facilities beyond
all other cities in the west. be in
duced to cut the price to 10 cents
When asked why his company
the Edison, could sell electricity
in Redlands at six cents and
charged nine in Los Angeles

Money to Garry
On Reclamation
Work is Found
Enough in Fund to Provide for
Existing Contracts, and Plans
for More.
CFrom a staff Correspondent.) )


WASHINGTON, July 9.--(Special Tele-
grsm.) .)-secretary Ballinger today gave out
a statement which shows oRat the increase
of the reclamation fund, caused by the
disposal Of public lands for the fiscal year
ended June 30, ia estimated at N,770000
As not all Of the land offices have
yet been heard from, this estimate is sub
ject to minor corrections. There has also
accrued TO the fund through repayment
OF building charges S1OC0,Ooo. Not all OF
this is paid in. as charges do not become
delinquent until after the failure to make
two payments. The balance available in
the treasury to meet existing contracts
and carry on work to December 81, 1903,
is A,50O,000 In addition Is an amount Of
s., 10000 from the H70.OOO above named,
this being advanced to, cover contracts now
In hand. The existing contracts and liza
bilitles on unpaid accounts and expenses
incidental to carrying out various con-
tracts will absorb all Of this amount.
Plans are, therefore, being made to utilize
funds available for 1910. These plans will
be presented to the secretary Of the in
! terror after a conference of the leading
engineers Of the reclamation service at
Portland, Ore, during the latter part of
July.
