CURRENT ! / !. / !; |! R!'OYAlION
WATER POWER COMPANY SELLS
CURRENT TO THE R0YALT0N
LIGHT AND POWER 60. .

A contract, whereby the Little Falls
Water Power company will furnish the
Royalton Light and Power company
with current for light and power, has
! been closed.
Six years ago the Royalton Light
and Power company was formed and
an electric plant was built to furnish
Royalton with light. only night SER
vice has been given in the past and
the company has experienced such
trouble in securing power that they
found it was not a paying proposition.
Negotiations were begun some time ago
and were concluded last Thursday. T.
G. Gordon Of the local company and
representatives Of the Royalton COM
pany went to the cities last Friday to
purchase material for the transmission
line. Work will be begun on this line
at once and it is thought that the lima
will be completed in about 80 days.
All current will be delivered to the
Royalton company at the switchboard
in this city.
Upon the closing Of the contract a
day and night service will be given in
Royalton. This is very desirable to the
residents as it will allow them to take
advantage Of the many electrical con-
veniences such as for power, flat irons,-
, etc.
There is some talk Of turning the
building now occupied by the power
house into modern, up-to-date cream
| cry. The building is ideally located tor
| such a purpose as it stands on the
shore of Platte river and with little
expense can be fitted up for that pur-
pose. There is great demand for
! creamery at Royalton and without
! doubt the formation Of a cooperative
creamery company would prove to be
{ a paying proposition as these companies
have proven to be in most all other
| places.
