The mysterious appearance of
gas and electric properties which has
been going on Of late was explained
today when J. F.. Reed. attorney. and
Mr. Young, manager of the electric
plant at Cedar Rapids. came before the
city council for informa ton as to what
terms would be considered favorable

to build an electric light and power
plant here separate from the local
plant.

they were now furnishing power to the

that if they could get franchise in
Marshalltown on terms which they
would consider favorable, they would
expect to duplicate the Boone plant
here and they argued that they desired
to enter Marshalltown because 1t was
on direct line betWefn, Boone and

plans of future development.
Nothing was proposed as to rates. but
the council requested the Cedar Rapids
men to draw up the ordinances which
they would propose;-and to submit
