xS lection of the amended rate
81 opposition submitted by the Con-
|sumers Power company and the de-
cision to recommend to the council
the engagement of a consulting en-
gineer to furnish an estimate of the
cost of a municipal lighting plant
were some of the features which
characterized the meeting of the
mayors. committee, made up of
Mayor A. G. Meyer, C. E. Wise and
Judge Lorin Cray, in the National
Citizens bank building yesterday af-
ternoon. There were present also J.
R. Brandrup, A. NJ. Stein, H. F.
Leonard of the Commercial club COM
mittee. F. NJ. Currier a member OF
the latter committee, did not attend.
The communication which the Con-
sumers Power company had placed IN
the hands of Mayor A. G. Meyer, was
read to the committeeman by Judge
Lorin Cray. 1t is made up of sever
al typewriter pages. Cut to the
effect that the Consumers Power
company would not, under the cir
cumstances, feel justified in reducing
further the prices of electricity and
gas to private consumers.
The Reductions Made.
The reduction offered consists of
SIS per annum per light for the 1853
street lights now in use, a total re-
duction to the city, if accepted, of
$S15 in it's annual lighting bill
For the operation of the 100 new
Luminous arc street lamps which the
city is DESTROYS Of installing and for
which about $4,000 would be neces-
| sary, the Consumers Power COM
pany proposes to charge for at the
rate of $49.55 per lamp per anum for
the light that will burn until eleven
o'clock each night, and $94S0 per
lamp per annum for the lights that
will burn all night and every night,
or total of $3.50 per year for the
100 luminous arc lights.
I AS a further concession, the Con-
sumers Power company does not re-
quire the city to relocate the present
street arc lamps which would be
taken down when the city installs
the 100 new luminous lamps in the
downtown district, it being understood
that the present arc lamps will be
installed from time to time at other
locations as the city may request.
Reduction For lncandescents.
The company offered to reduce the
| price of incandescent lights to the city
a quarter of cent; also it will pur-
chase the rectifieP used in connec-
ton with the luminous arc lights,
should they be installed. The cost
of rectifier is $4,000.
The committee was in session
| about an hour. 1t is understood that
it was agreed that the committee de-
| cided to recommend to the council
that that body proceed in a business
like manner to investigate the cost
OF erecting and maintaining an cleo
trio light plant. The council is to Sc
lect it's own way of reaching this
end.
This recommendation will be pre-
pared and laid before the council at
its next meeting. Other recommends
| lions may be made Also
1t is expected that the letter SUBJ
mitted to Mayor A. G. Meyer by the
Consumers Power company will be
given to the public before the week
is out; also the recommendation of
the committee.

PROSPECTING FOR OIL.

over that section of country as to indica-
tons Of OIL We understand that Mr..
Rosedale was much pleased with the pros
poets and indications that there is oil in
this parish.
Mr.. Rosedale accompanied by Messrs.
F. L. Guthrie, N. Jacoby and H. A.
Dunn visited St. Joseph on Thursday
and inspected the well bored some time
ago by the town in an effort to get water
supply and which showed gas in consider
able quantities.
While he did not think the indications
at this well pointed to oil, we understand
that Mr.. Rosedale thinks that there is
reason to believe that gas well of large

A SUGGESTION.

While the work of improving the
sidewalks in town is going, on.
would it not be good idea for the
Town Council to use the wooden
walks which are being replaced with
concrete to build walk from the
rear entrance of the High School to
a connection with the walk in front
# the residence of Mr.. S. w. Haz-
/ p?
There is no sidewalk of any kind
at this place and it is much used by
tbe children and the teachers in go
ing to and from school and we can
not think of any better use that
could be made of the old material
than the one suggested. The pro-
posed walk would be only about 200
yards long and the cost would not
be great. 1t is true that the child.
rem can reach school by other routes
on good walks but the one suggested
IS much shorter and is, therefore.
commonly used.
As every one knows it is the ma
ture of children to always take the
shortest route even though it may
he the toughest road. And it is
well, for they learn soon enough
that the longest way round is the
nearest way home.n

ourselves in position to take advant-
