ELECTRIC LIGHTING
 REDUCTION OF RATES
Why It May Not Have Been Noticed
 in Bills.

To the Editor of The Republican. Sir:
 We beg to reply to the question raised editorially by you today, and to say that our statements regarding reductions in the cost of electric light ing are correct.
 The residence lighting rate has been reduced 32L per cent and the business lighting rate 5G per cent
 All the ordinary consumer has to do to convince himself that these reduc- lions have been made is to compare one of last years bills with that Of the current month this year This

An attempt has been made to show that Phoenix can accomplish the alleged results claimed for the municipal electric plant at Riverside California.
 The financial accomplishments of municipal opera ton Riverside have been greatly exaggerated and no effort has been made to explain the vital difference in many local conditions
 If the Riverside plant paid the same rate for electric ity the PRIVATE waterpower company which sup plies it pay the government the Riverside plant would exhibit annual deficit of many thousands of dollars, PROVIDED THE RATES CHARGED FOR SERVICE WERE NOT GREATLY INCREASED.
 Riverside is a city of about l5,OOO people. Phoenix has about 10000 population Although Riverside is small the last $155 per $00 of assessed vua ton, while that of Phoenix only $l. The amount raised by taxation for city purposes in Riverside for the year ending June 30, 1909 more than twice much the amount raised by taxation for city purposes m Phoenix last year.
 When the Riverside municipal plant was established in 1895 the city had tax rate of 6o centS producing $3700 in revenue after IA years of municipal $l34,5l1 ~ ' :,

 There is more and insistent demand for a better lighted city The demand has been growing in emphasis shce the recent demonstrations with the concrete post and cluster lights. Riversdefs beginning to awake to the fact that their city, otherwise unusually beautiful, has really been wrechedy lighted"
 The Riverside municipal electric plant buys nearly all of its power from private company, and has paid therefor at the rate of 6 per horsepower per year The rate paid by company to the government amounts to $96. Fl per horsepower per year. E
 For this electricity developed by waterpower the Riverside plant has paid OO55S of cent per kowat hour whereas We pay the government 015 cents per kiOwatt hour, difference of nearly cent per kwh in favor of Riverside.
 The Arizona Gazette reported the wholesale price Tor power at Riverside at 14 cents per kOwatt hour
 In September, 1909, finding that it needed power than its $36 per horsepower contract called for Riverside made another contract with the private com pany for SUPPLEMENTAL power at the rate of 1 cent per kilOWatt hour for 20 hours use daily and 1
