FOR $40. 10000.
FOUR MONTHS TO INSTALL
Will BE FOrty.five Arc Lights at ~
per Month Each. Cheap Light
for New Library. other
City Lights Free. Dis

The Home Electric company WIS
given the contract to light the city
for the next five years. The con-
tract was awarded at the council
meeting Tuesday evening. after sew
eral hours OF argument and delibera-
tion by that body.
1t calls for forty-fve arc lights
of $4,000 candle power at 81 per
month each. The city hall, fire de-
partment, band stand. and each alley
In the down town districts are to
have lights free. The city library
is to receive light for cents per
kilowatt hour, to be paid for by the
city. provided the library board de-
cides to use the light of the Home
company. This proviso was made in
regard to lighting the library. as the
council has no legal right to make
contracts for the library board. How
ever. as the city will pay for the light,
there is no doubt but that the board
will accept the proposition.
All poles must be set according to
the city ordinances, also painted and
kept in repair.
The principal controversy between
the company and council was the
amount of bonds to be furnished

There will be thirty-two arc lights

The lights are to burn on the al
night schedule and will be turned or

All new lights are to be installed al

the company will not be required to

an additional fifteen are required.

quality. and this is especially true when buying
seeds.
