able to get as much for their money lies in
the manner in which electric current costs
are figured. In setting out to render its
consumers a service the company fig
ues that It is giving them something to
use and not that It is offering something
for sale ss a commodity. TO furnish them
with, the service that will give them elec-
trioity the company must undertake two
burdens, one OF them is the readiness to
give the service and the other is to deliver
the current to the lamps and motors. This
readiness costs the company a great deal
for machinery and equipment
One OF the most recent uses to which
electricity has been put lie in lighting the
huge street signs that have become so
numerous. When they were first put in
the merchants were very slow about under
taking to keep them because the outlay was
great and they seemed Of doubtful neces-
sity. The electric light companies in Omaha
land In most citles) saw an opportunity and
went after II. They offered to merchants
who wanted signs to undertake the initial
cost for them and to allow the merchant
to pay for the sign in instailments as a
part of the rent for the light. This put the
burden upon the company and the
merchants were not required to undergo

for the new factories that want to come
into this territory or for the manufacturers
who want to change their power systems
The electric light company has made It
business rule to be always ready to make
any addition in the amount Of energy that
it dlspenses
New factories are encouraged to come
here and the efforts Of the power company,
and its assurance that there will mover
be any dearth Of Juice" are a part OF
the influence that brings now industries to
locate in this section Of the country. The
big grain elevators. big Implement factories
and dozens Of other big factories have
been installed in Omaha through the ef-
forts and substantial promises Of the com
pany that furnishes them with power.
For the small consumer power is about
as cheap in Omaha as it is in the average
big city, but for the man who uses a great
deal II is cheaper. Probably the companies
around Buffalo that gather their power
from the gigantic flow Of Niagara Falls
are the only concerns in the country that
can furnish the big consumer with the
power to drive his machinery more cheaply
than 1t can be done right here In this city.

There was a time not SO very long ago
when real public service corporations did
not exist There were big companies doing
business under city franchises, using the
peoples streets, tearing up pavements,
stringing their wires up and down the
principal thoroughfares and making their
presence felt in many ways that were
troublesome, and they did give to their
patrons for high prices certain sort Of
service, but it was different They did
not then consider it their duty to serve
the public as a public. They were possess
ors Of franchises and they gave services
only because that was the way to get
revenue.
Their revenues in those days were not
large, however. Because they chose to
offer their wares with a surly Indifference
to the customers comfort, because they
disdained advertising and trade soliciting
through periodicals and publications the
people who had to buy of them did II
only when it was absolutely necessary.
1t was this situation and the seeming
lack OF desire on the part of capitalists to
remedy It that led TO a great deal OF the
ia feeling that has been engendered
against organized industry. II the con-
Omaha daily bee. (Omaha [Neb.]) 187?-1922, 1910-08-17

by the recognition by the public that with
electrici' many things are possible that
are quite impossible without II.
The greater part of the electric force
generated by the plant of the Omaha
company is, of course, used up in lighting
but nearly as great quantity Is given
out in power. Huge factories, that before
the general use of electric power, had
to have immense boilers to run their
engines, now have small motors that set
in motion their whole complicated sys-
TENS Of machinery and the householders
have learned to take advantage OF the
same opportunities.
Many Different Uses.
The modern "haus frau" has in her
kitchen an electric stove, she does her
ironing with an electric iron and she
curIs her hair with an electric curling
iron. She gives her laundress the pleas
ure of having the washing machine and
the wringer run by the motor that can
be moved around from one place to an
other as It may be needed. She cools her
rooms Just as a hotel or an office does,
with electric fans, large or small. and IL
she is really well-to-do and able to take
advantage of every possible chance of
comfort she has her own electrically run
refrigerating plant.
The power from the ordinary house
lighting wire can be made to run refrlg-
Grating or amonia evaporating plant. and
the plant can be installed for cost OF
less than 1900 for an eight-room house.
The machine, when complete. will fur
nish a draught of cold air for any spot
that is too hot, and Ice cream and suoh
frozen delicacies are prepared in mo-
ment. .-..t
The factory is more greatly improved and
| benefited by the use Of electricity than the
household. Power from enormous steam en-.
gines is very expensive and every individual
user has to install complete plant capabls
of producing as much power as he may
use only very rare occasions. A large
item in his expense under such a system Il
the wages Of his engineer and firemen.
Electricity saves Waste.
The waste Of energy In steam power
system Is enormous. The energy must b'
carried from the central generating PLAN
to every part of the building. This involves
shafts or belts and the friction and dis
lance use UP most of the power that the
manufacturer pays for.
| But with the aid of electricity the factor5
can be run with greater efficiency and lesl
expense. The energy can be Transferred
to all parts OF the building with compare,
lively little waste, and only very simple
machinery Is needed. The engineer IL prActi'
cally dispensed with in a factory run by
electricity and the maintaining expenses
are reduced to minimum. ~
There is always plenty Of power on hand

any initial expenditures The electric light
company owns all Of the big signs in
Omaha except one or two of the larger ones
that were put up by corporations, and Il
furnishes the light for all of them. The
brilliant appearance OF Omaha streets at
night Is not altogether due to the 1857
arc lamps that are put there for that purr
pose. The huge signs with their thousands
Of Inoandsscents and their flashing and
weird effects add the finishing touch to
the scene.
Business t. Growing.
The need OF all these things that the
company can supply to the people and
the desire on the part of the company to
please everybody has resulted in the
growth of the business to its present pro
portions. Last year 9Ss Old houses swero
wired, houses that had formerly had only
gas, and the city electrician issued per-.
mits for asa different Jobs Of wiring. This
year the company has already, spent $780,
900 for improvements and extensions, and
most of this money has been paid out for
labor and materials.

the good Of the city, works up whole dis

1t would be very hard to realize what
modern city would be like without the
services of an electric light and power COM
pany. One reads vivid descriptions of the
old days when gallants went forth into the
darkness carrying blazing flambeaux before
them and armed with sharpest steel ex-
pecting any moment to be set upon and
robbed by the marauders that found too
comfortable shelter in every dark corner.
Crime and misery we're developed most
easily in the dark. In an unlghted street
the traveller was liable not only to the
dangers Of discomfort and delay, but he
was bese by the more terrifying dangers
Of desperadoes. -
But the lights that we get from the cleo
trio light companies make travelling by
night almost as comfortable as IL is by
day
Even the most modest home can be
brilliantly lighted in a city where cleo
tricity is available. Every possible con-
venience that lightens the strain on our
eyes is afforded by new Developments in
these two commodities. The Omaha
Electric Light and Power company oper-
ates throughout this city 1900 miles of
wire. On these wires are strung $50, 900
sixteen candle power equivalents in lamps
and about 10000 horse power in motors.
When the occasion comes for the cele-
bration OF some great event. some annual
festival or other special time the down.
town streets become flooded with bright
ness. Thousands of tiny shining points
festooned back and forth across and along
the crowded pavements, huge arcs that
cast radiance almost as bright as the
beams OF Sol himself, and the recently
invented improvements in big lights that
eclipse even the arcs all add to the glow
that makes the streets at night so beau
tiful and SO fascinating.
Light a Necessity.
In private homes electricity Is a con-
venience that adds so much to peoples
comfort for a small expenditure Many

of modern advantages such as electricity

| The Omaha Electric Light and Power
company was organized in 1893 from the
1 Thomson-Houston company, which hat
4 been doing business here for about min,
years. When the Thomson Houston com
! pany started out 1t had a little plan
that occupied about 1880 square feet Of
floor space and had capacity OF 20t
\ horsepower.
But in twenty-six years the plant has
grown to be capable of producing az
much as 10000 horsepower and occupies
In floor space 10000 square feet This
! growth has been caused by the cheapness
Of electricity, by the recognition by the
company Of the value of advertising and
