Such Proof as This Should Convince

The public endorsement of a local
citizen is the best proof that can be

zens, addresses his friends and neigh
bors, you may be sure he is thorough
ly convinced or he would not do so.

the expense of the patrons of the mu-
nicipal light plant.
1t is easy to figure how this is true,
to-wit: Had the plant received pay
ment for public lighting it would not
have been necessary to postpone the
% per cent reduction in rates until the
first of next year. So by making pub
lie improvements out of the money
due the light plant, instead of the tax
funds, each patron of the municipal
plant has for at least two years been
paying each month, 25 per cent more
for the current he uses than he should
have paid 1t Is also clear that the
patrons of the Light, Heat and Power
company have been contributing moth
ing toward public lighting.
How All Citizens Affected.
Failure of the Zimmerman admins
tration to pay the municipal light plant
for public lighting has also directly
affected the pocketbooks of the pa
irons of the Light, Heat and Power
company.
The municipal plant rates for cleo
trio lighting and power have been and
are now excessive and, by maintaining
such rates, has permitted its competi-
tor to uphold its rates to a figure
quite profitable to it's stockholders, for
the Light, Heat and Power company
asserts it can meet the rate reduction
of the city plant and still make the
required six per cent profit
The municipal plant, however, has
been compelled to maintain such a
schedule of rates because Of the policy
of the city government refusing to
pay for the current used, policy un-
fair to the plant and to all it's and the
Light, Heat and Power company's pa
irons.
1t will be recalled that the announce
ment of the city plants rate reduction
followed on the heels of the city gov
ernment's action in making an appro-
priation to pay the public lighting bill
next year Other things entered into
the big reduction of municipal plant
rates, but the principal one, city Off
Gals admit, was the assurance that
the plant would receive a square deal
from the city after this year.

MAY BUILD LADDER
FOR FISH AT LAKE

A fish ladder may be constructed in
the dam at Morton lake, as the struc-
ture in it's present condition does not
meet the requirements of the state
game laws. The law specifies that
waterways can not be blockaded so
that fish cannot travel.
The water in the lake is fourteen
feet deep at the dam, thought the
complete basin will not be filed until
some time next week
President Sedgwick Of the Morton
Park and Lake association had sew
eral lots in the northeast end of the
park surveyed, which the association
had not planned to market. So great
will be the demand for cheap lots that
all available property of the company
along the lake will be sold except a
portion near the Hawkins springs.
