MONTROSE LIGHT COMPANY
WANTS NEW FRANCHISE

The light company of Montrose is
asking an extension of it's franchise
in that city twenty years. Its owners
represent that with but three or four
years left to their present franchise,
they find difficulty in placing their
plant in the consolidation of light
companies now being affected, and a
twenty per cent reduction is offered
the city and the people of Montrose
if the new franchise is forthcoming.
This new rate is given at maxi.
mum of 13 cents per kilowat, mini.
/ mum of $1.25 for meter rates. with
$75 per arc light as against $50 pei
year, the present rate.
The council at Montrose has takeI
the matter under advisement and will
set future date to again confer witt
the owners of the light plant.

MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP

The question of city owned light
election.
Independent has tried TO get the
feeling of nearly every citizen inter
ested and finds the sentiment SO far
as expressed, rather more against
than in favor
For this the history of our water
system appears to be largely respon-
sible. Why" some say, "the town
hasn't even demonstrated it's ability
to run its water works successfully
it has built reservoirs that won't hald
water, bought pumps which won't
pump and built dams that won't dam,
and they hint that, had our city
water warks been established by an
prise would have had to prove a sue
cess as a utility or the owners would
be losers"
There is satisfaction in a town own
ing its utilities just as there is salts
faction in a citizen owning his home
except that in the case of utilities, the
pipe is generally wanted to be dug
up with every change of town or city
officers. If for no other purpose than
to find out If the other fellow did
anything to it.
In connection with the water works
old timers say that propositions were
made to put in the works at mere
fraction of what they cost the city
and to sell them later to the city II
the city wanted to buy. at about their
cost.
or this, of course Independent editor
has no personal knowledge. What he
has observed is, that the city has its
water works and derives from water
rents and sales, something like $4,000
a year: that the water works debt
presumably calls for interest amount,
ing to $1,000 or $4,000 a year. Just
I how much of the balance II requires
for cars and upkeep, and what. If any
the net profit may be to the city, we
do not know Neither Is Independent

the equipment to pronounce upon its
value as an asset of the city.
Regarding the requirement of a
light plant, Independent does not wish
to be understood as offering advice.
The subject is merely under discus
sion If either plan proposed is to
be followed, we would suggest, if it is
practicable, the buying of the present
plant, rather than to undertake the
building of a new one in competition,
as many of the difficulties which had
to be met in the water works build
ing-along with some others-might
in that way be avoided.
Water and light are two of the most
important things in the supply needs
of a town or city. The question of
inviting competition in the latter, is
one which should be carefully con
sidered from a business standpoint.
With the Black Canon of the Gun
nison just above us, where torrents
are capable of developing thousands OF
horse power, and from which source
within few years will surely come
cheap light and power, not only for
cities but for railroads as well, nc
one can be said to have any lead
pipe cinch on the future light busl
ness.
We wish Our future water supply
was as easily solvable. Some of our
future good water may also have to
come from the upper Gunnison chan,
nels. Why not?

One of the lodges of the big paying
corporations has been the issue of a
few more million shares as soon as
their original capitalization became
unable to stand the too heavy divi.
dends being earned without exciting
unfavorable comment. This seems to
have been done in most cases without
putting in any additional real money.
One of the most hopeful signs of the
times is the government investigation
of the methods of such corporations
which began two or more years ago
and which is now creating wide
spread interest The Investigations
now promise the dissolution of many
of the largest corporations, and there
is already an evidence of willingness
to turn millions of trust money into
more general and legitimate channels
of investment. Let the good work
of financial readjustment go braveIy
on.

MUCH OF PROMISE

In country like this things are
bound to happen.

in resource.
Our electric merger, with money suf-
ficient to accomplish, will, if it har.
nesses the Gunnison, solve all local
power and transportation problems
bringing about advantages so numer
GUS as to prohibit mention.
The building of sugar factory up
on the plan now proposed and backed
by unlimited capital, would follow in
the list of great achievements. and its
advantages would also be too num-
erous to at present enumerate.
These two triunpns, would, how
ever, form the foundation for and
the nucleus around which Thousand
Improvement utilities would congre
gate.
1t would all tend to bring more lant
under cultivation, make more homes
better towns. better farms and more
satisfied farmers.

sion and demand continuous think
ing. In poultry country we ship
in eggs during a certain season. In a
dairy country we ship in butter In
stock country we ship. in bacon,
hams and lard. In possession of sue

Able to raise everything worth can

canned goods. Instead of shipping in
all of these supplies at direct loss
of not less than 100000 a year to
Delta county people alone, we should
be able to produce such supplies suf-
ficient for our own consumption and
have a surplus to market outside. The
difference between having to pay out
ten dollars and having it safe on the
