nlcipal Lights Really Cost, and IL
Will Take $4,000 to Find Out.
The council committee on public
lighting met today to consider the esti-
mates Of the lighting commission for
the ensuing year, and before it had
gone very far 1t encountered an item
of $1,000 for making an inventory Of
. the property of the plant. Without
much consideration it was cut out and
other matters considered. Commits
sioner Lynn asked the committee to
hear an argument on the allowance
and called on Commissioner Hinchman
to address the committee:
"The lighting commission" said Mr..
Hinchman, "refrained this year from
making an estimate of the cost Of
lighting per arc light because we felt
that we did not know what 1t Is cost
ing, and we are unwilling to go on
placing the cost at $50 or $33 light,
as we have done in the past, because
the truth is we would not know
whether we were telling the truth or
not.
"For thirteen years we have gone on
estimating the cost Of lights on the
basis of the original cost Of the plant
and extensions, allowing per cent
for depreciation. II man had hat
for thirty-three years he would hardly
figure its value by calculating that 1t
deprecated at the rate Of per cent.
We don't know whether we have any
thing or not, and we want an expert
to take hold Of the books and the plant
and tell us what we have.
'This is not the result Of any anti
municipal ownership criticism, but we
feel that as business men we ought
to take an account of what property
there is in the plant and what it is
worth A little while ago we figured
that we had the finest pole system in
the country, but we went out one day
and discovered that 1t would cost us
$4,000 to bring our poles and lines up
to the point where we thought they
were. Nobody really knows what our
lights are costing us, and If we took
account of all the items be might dis
cover that instead Of $32 light the
lights are really costing us $40 or
