Will WlLLEION
HAVE WHITE WAY
REPRESENTATIVE Of IRON WORKS IN
un TALKING ORNAMENTAL
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

Fred V. johnson, representing
the Great Falls Iron Works is in
the city this week talking with
the business men on the PROPOSE
tion of ornamental side lights for
the business district. Streets
lighted in this manner in other
cities are quite often called the
white Way" and present
beautiful appearance. The cost to
each lot owner is so light that we
believe they will be put in here.
in fact we don't see how Williston
can afford to be without the
lights. The city of Havre put in
these lights recently and . Havre
report speaks of the system IS
follows:
Havre, April 2l-Havre's new
ornamental lighting system in the
business section was turned on for
the first time last evening, and
the effect produced was the talk
of all who saw the new lights.
Twenty-four posts with three
lights each have been installed to
take the place of FIVE arc lights,
and not only does the system give
more light with practically the
same amount of current but the
light is more evenly distributed
through the block.
The design of the lighting posts
here is plain, but very attract
i've one. 1t was manufactured by
the Great Falls Iron Works, and
| it has been named and is being ad-
vertised by the manufacturers Is
the Hsvre style lamp post. 1t has
three tungsten lights, and the
large white globes present Z most
attractive appearance both day
and night. These lights wereiin-
stalled from the depot to second
street on Third avenue, and from
Second avenue to Fourth avenue
on First street.. Before the svs-
tenn was installed a petition was
| presented to the council for ten
! more posts between First and Sec
ond avenues on First street. These
will be installed within the next
week or ten days. H'e :
