WANT LOW FIR RATES.

There is a deal of dissatisfaction among the patrons of the City Light Plant, particularly on account of the recent revision upwards of their rates, which were already considered high by many. The city council should take the matter in hand and make a thorough investigation of rates charged here and elsewhere, and fix absolutely correct, reasonable and equitable rate to consumers. This is duty the council owes it's conStitu- ents, and it seems to us, would be the proper step to be taken, both in the interest of the patrons and taxpayers and also the plant and its business In addition to this stable price to be fixed the public would like to know something of the cost of operating the plant, something of it's resources, lia- bilities and income and expenses. num- Der of lights furnished, capacity, and demands upon its capacity-in fact the people want to know all about this water and light business, and we suggest that those in authority pre- pare statement of all these and other matters of interest, and have it published The clamor for this infor- nation grows louder and louder and nothing short of full investigation and report, especially as to rates, cost. income and expenses, will satisfy them We say the council should do this, because as we understand the matter, the plant is the property of the city, and the council has general supervision of it and is responsible fer il and it's conduct.
