Good Work on Repairs.

The Truckee River General Electric
Co did some EXCEEDINGLY rapid work
in getting power INTO the district and
lights into Yerington after the acci-
dent OF last week Thursday. 1t must
be remembered that the entire plant
at the Bluestone substation was de
stroyed and that anything to make
repairs had to be brought in The com
pany happened to have two trans
formers in Reno that it could dispense
with and they arrived here Sunday
last through the courtesy of the y +.
Co. and the y. G. B. holding trains
for them. The power and lights were
turned on Wednesday evening, and
while the service may not be quite as
satisfactory for few weeks as 1t
formerly was. the public will concede
that the company did some good hus-
Ting and rapid work \ duplicate oi
the old plant will be installed just as
soon as the material can be put on the
ground, the present one being only
/ temporary.
