The LIGHTING
PROPOSITION

zens' committee space each day to
discuss the waterworks bond issue and
municipal light proposition. The Fo-
rum donates the space free of charge
in a spirit OF fairness to all inter-
ests-and with desire to enlighten
the readers The following Is one of
the articles furnished by the commit
tee. The Forum suggests that private
individuals who have something OF this
nature to submit, first turn over their
manuscript to w. D. Sweet, j. ]. Jor-
dan or Roy Lewis OF the publicity
committee.)
To The Forum: A recent issue OF
The Forum contained an editorial
concerning the net income to the city
from the waterworks. There were
some important factors overlooked,
which, when considered, have a ma
terial bearing on the question.
A paper in the proceedings of the
American Waterworks association for
1905 shows that the average "Hydrant
rental" paid by seventy cities ranging
in size from 1000 to. 10000 to private
companies was S44 per year per fire
hydrant. At this rate, which would
probably be low for Fargo because of
the high cost of materials due to
freight, ETC., the waterworks depart
ment should be credited with 269x44
or $11,s36 per year. There are 26s
fire hydrants IN this city.
There is no ere lit given by The
Forum for water used in sprinkling
the streets or flushing the sewers.
From figures given in the report of
this society for 1904 1t appears that
the city woulc. have t. pay a private
concern at least 800 for water for
street sprinkling and sewer flushing
The Fargo waterworks in furnish
ing the library, orphanages, public
schools and churches it'll water with
no charge. Some waterworks COM
panies furnish free" water but many
do not.
A number of cities. as shown in the
1904 report, ranging in size from
$500 to $4,000 population have an
average charge per customer or as
put in the article Total per taker' of
$194O per year. The city auditor gives
the estimate OF 81 per quarter or sis
per year as the amount paid by the
average consumer.
1t appears then that the water rates
are not excessive as compared with
those OF other cities.
1t also appears that the taxpayers
are relieved Of something like $4,000
tax for nydraut rental and street
sprinklins.
1t might be considered that the
plant. had actually earned a surplus
of $4,000 added to the $15,404 excess
of receipts over expenditures or a sum
of 27,704. r. HI. Slocum.
professor Slocum appears to have
entirely missed the point of The
Forum editorial in question. Fargo's
water charges were not attacked-as
either high or low. Attention was
merely called to the fact that al
though the wa,erworks had been oper-
ated at profit 1t was, nothing that
could be used as argument favoring
municipal ownership-wnen quality of
the water given consumers was con-
sidered The Forums contention was
that--quality considerable would
have been better had the city operated
the waterworks at cost--rather than
to have sold at profit the Shiny fluid |

RIO GRANDE'S NEW MANAGER.

1t seems certain that Horace w.

general manager of the Denver and

The following is a dispatch sent out
from Palestine, Tex, on Monday
night:
Palestine, Tex. Sept. 27-Hurace
w. Clark, the newly appointed gem
eral manager for the Denver and Rio
Grande left here tonight for Denver
with Mrs Clark.
Clark came to Texas from the Mo-
bile n Ohio to become general man
ager of the International and Great
Northern three years ago. The road
went into the hands of a receiver
shortly after and he has since been
acting as assistant general manager
The receiver. T. j. Freeman, will
be made general manager when the
International is taken from the re-
lceivership and Clark has been sent to
the Desyer road. He has been an
efficient officer in Texas.
The Denver News makes the fol
lowing comment after publishing the
above dispatch:

of the Denver and Rio Grande, re-
fused last night todiseuss the prob
able appointment of Horace W Clark

quality of the apples this year, the
majority of growers report, could not
be better and the size is far ahead
of the usual crop. II is impossible at
