Cost OF Light And Water
Newark, Del, Oct. 3, IoI

Newark, Del, N)Gl. 5, 1910.
Mr. Editor
The Mayor in your last issue replies
to my inquiry regarding the cost OF
light and water,
lie quotes the figures OF the late
Professor Freudenberger. 1t reads
all right, but in no way answers my
question and my position that there
is not a man i'll the town who knows
what it costs us to produce our light
and water still holds good.
The figures mentioned were un-
doubtedly correct at the time they
were made, but that does not mean
they are true now. There is some
question as to the contract with the
Elk River people and a difference OF
opinion, whether it is a paying pro-
position or not. 1t seems to me this
difference could be found out in a
short time. The books will show how
much we pay out and also how much
we receive. The profit or loss. it
seems to me, could easilv be deter
mined in such manner that there
could be no difference of opinion. 1t
| is not a question of opinion, but just
| what do the books show now-are we
| running at proht or loss! he
plain figures is still the argument need
| ed Ii we pay SO much to pump gal
Ion of water and get pay for a pint, il
| seems an easy matter to find out what
| that water has cost us plus the loss un-
! accounted for-then what we get for
the pint sold
| Anyone can see it. No argument
| will equal the plain figures for a
month.

THE NEW INDUSTRY

A COMMUNICATIONS from the
Board of Trade appears i'll another
coumu-it speaks for ITSELF
This chance Tor a new INDUSTRY
should appeal TO every citizen IN
Newark. Mr. Diggs proprietor OF
shirt factory at North East, Md,
wishes to establish a branch at this
place. As was mentioned in last
weeks issue, he met the Board OF
Trade and stated his proposition,
which met with the approval OF all
the gentlemen present. Mr.. Dlggs
comes we'll recommended and by his
straightforward business-like manner
made a very iavoras'e suppression
on all who talked with him. He seem
ed pleased with the outlook here. 1he
first and main consideration is whe-
thor the necessary help can be Sc
cured. Everyone should be on the
alert and do their utmost toward Sc
curing this industry.
Take your pencil, merchants, and
figure the amount OF money added to
the circulation.
