would furnish a perpetual stream Of
power. as well as stream of gold tc
the stock holders of the concern.
The Cost Of Production.
"And there would be market fol
this power, for the reason that il
could be transmitted by cable to any
Of the cities Of Iowa, as well as manu-
featuring points in adjoining states
The present average cost of steam
power In Ottumwa, Des Moines and
other cities in or near the coal regions
is $50 per annum for each horse
power, difference in favor OF the
water and electricity of S32 per horse
power in the actual cost OF producing
it. In many places where the coal
must be brought to the manufactur
ing plant by rail the cost Is much
greater. Steam power is local. matter
1t cannot be transmitted. Therefore
it is plain that there Is a good margin
of profit for the owners of one OF these
water power plants, and there is nc
danger of the city of Ottumwa losing
any money on the recent purchase, II
the plant is properly handled, and am
confident that it will be under the
present management. It should be the
policy of the state and its people to
encourage the investment of money in
all such enterprises. would not drive
these eastern capitalists out of our
state by radical legislation. We have
had too much OF this in other matters.
But the state and the people should
insist on the square deal. Give them
a charter, charge them small rental
for the use of the power sites and
through the supervision of the Iowa
Waterway commission and com.
petent engineer see that the work of
building the dams and locks Is properly
done. The commission should also
be authorized to limit the charge for
power. III.
Would Make Streams NavigabIe.
under such stipulations the state
and the people would. eventually re-
ceive some benefits for the use of the
rivers of Iowa. The small rental re-
ceived could be. used to maintain a
permanent. waterway commission to
look after the interests OF the state.
The building Of these dams and locks
here and there on such streams aa
the Des Moines, Iowa and Cedar
rivers, by these companies, would
make them navigable for eight months
of the year. The Iowa and Cedar
rivers are now naviga.le for not less
than four months of the year, at times
five and six months. assume the
right to say this for I navigated both
of them, and there is larger volume.
more water in the Des Moines- than
there is in the Cedar or Iowa rivers.
We who have been on the boosting
committee for the past five years, and
who have given the matter thorough
investigation, regard the water power
as one Of the most, valuable assets
of the state. and we do not believe
that the people should forfeit all Of
their rights without receiving some
benefits. What is needed at the pres
ent time is little activity on the
part of our state officials and law
makers. UNDER proper restrictions,
they should encourage and assist in
this work. 1t is alright If properly
handled, but all wrong If not"
