Says Richmond Light Plants
Are Above AVERAGE in State

In yesterdays issue of the Indian
apolis News is an article, written by
E. /. Lewis, staff correspondent, on
Richmond's light and power plants
In part the article reads:
Richmond Is mighty good location
for industries. 1t has cheap electric
ity. Electric energy has been re-
duced to SO low cost here and SO
much Is done for industry that few
manufacturers can afford to manu-
facture their own power. John Titzel.
acting manager of the Richmond
Light, Heat and Power company, es-
Inmates that IS per cent of Richmond
industry moves by electric current
The lower the cost for electric power
is reduced, the higher jumps the in
dustrfal percentage.
He thinks that possibly it may be
as high as 30 per cent. Richmond's
cheap power attracts the attention of
people figuring on a location. In
short, in cheap power the city has a
good, substantial foundation for
growth and prosperity.
The city also has cheap light. In
fact, the city of Richmond itself has,
for four years, not been paying a sou
for public lighting, and it runs 324 arc
street lights.
Charge Same Rates.
There are two electric light and
power services here One is run by
the city-is mucipal The other is
by the Richmond Light, Heat and
Power company, corporation which
also has the artificial and natural gas
services here. The municipal and
corporation plants charge the same
rates for light and power. These
rates have recently been reduced,
seemingly on agreement of the munic-
ipal and corporation managements,
with the approval of the city itself
and the authorization of the state pub
lie utilities commission.
The reduction made by the new
rate is material However, these two
rates-the old and the new-are not
as widely apart as seems at first
glace. The new rate is "additive," or
is stepped up" The old rate was
flat" For example: If person
used 5000 kilowatt hours of power
under the old rate he was charged
2.5 cents for all of it. Under the new
rate he is charged cents for the
first 500 kilowatt hours, 2.75 cents for
the next 500, 2.5 cents for the next
1000, and cents for the next 5000.
The bill under the old rate would be
$50; under the new rate, S13S.75. On
10000 kilowatt hours the old bill
| would have been $500, the new bill
only S24S. This is just a shade over
2 cents Few get under the cent
average.
The attention of the people at La
fayette, who are now trying to find a
fair basis of rates. has been attracted
to the new rates here-they have just
gone into effect. The question of
whether the new rates are fair. how
ever, is not settled. The public utili-
ties commission, after hearing, evi-

putting them into at least temporary
force has been issued. The private
company, the Richmond Light, Heat

The Water Works Case

We have before US the brief prepared bv
Monks, Robbins, Starr and Goodrich, attorneys
for the Richmond City Water Works Company
In this argument, which is soon to be presented
to the public service commission, the company
through it's attorneys claims 100000 as the lust
valuation of the plant for rate making purposes
Ii seven per cent is allowed on this the invest
n1ent should receive in dividends $4,000 year
All to this the more than $4,000 representing
annual expenditures and it will be seen that the
revenues of the company according to the argu-
ment, must be more than S122, 900 a year.
lnasmuch as its revenues between October l.
1912, and October l, 1913 were only S76361 it
will be seen that the company will be entitled, if
its argument is held valid by the public service
commission, to an increase in rates. When it is
understood that the schedule of rates, as suggest
ed by the city of Richmond through it's citv at
torney and filed with the public service commis
sion, will give an annual revenue of only S57, ,535
the readers will understand what gap there is
between the arguments made by the city attor-
ney and the claims made by the COMPANY
According to this brief, Mr.. Gormon. the pub
llc service commissions engineer made a tenta-
tive valuation Of the plant of S723, ,666 The
water works Company argues that items
amounting to S|3o92 were left out; also that no
alo zee was made for Going Value" When
the@ IRE added to Mr.. Gormon's figures, the
COMMISSIONS tentative valuation would be
$769. 9.217.
Mr. Watt, the expert employed by the citv.
fixed on valuation for rate making purnoses Of
$596,9O5. If the items omitted and the fifteen
per cent for Going Value are added. as the COM
pany's attorneys argue, Mr.. Watts valuation
should be $841, ,268
Mr.. Alvord, who was employed some time ago
by the company, gives total valuation, accord
ing to the brief, of $950,385.

are not fair. The managers of the
municipal plant say they are. Prob
ably only operation under them some
time will settle the question.
Thinks There viii Be No Profit.
G. II. Olney, attorney for the Rich
mond Light. Heat and Power COM
pany. says that the investment of that
company for electric light and power
service is approximately 100000 and
that last year a net profit OF only
$9,S72.45 was made under the old
rates, which have been reduced. 1t is
estimated, 16 2-3 per cent This
$9.97l.45 was the profit after deduct
Ing operating expenses, taxes, fixed
charges. amortization and reserve
The new rates, he figures. will not
produce a net profit.
On the other hand the city plants
managers think the rate quite high
enough for profit. "The lower rates."
said Alfred Bavis, chairman of the
board of works, and an unusual stu
dent OF municipal economies, will
yield us good margin of profit
enough this year, we estimate, to put
In new street arc lighting service in
place of the present one that is be-
coming somewhat obsolete The re-
duction will undoubtedly greatly in
crease consumption without any ma
terial increase in fixed charges. That
means more profit. Cheap rates often
mean better profit-a point that pub
lie utility companies often overlook.
The records of the city's plant indi-
cate this profit
Chairman Bavis was asked if. how
ever, private company could get
through. He thought that it should.
He called attention to the fact that
the municipal plant is paying itself
out of debt. Seven thousand dollars
were put in the sinking fund last year.

The Richmond Light, Heat and
Power company has a 1850 kilowatt
plant. 1t serves about two thous and
consumers. The inventory value OF
the generating plant and system com

sion, placed it's value at $500, 900. 1t
also completely covers the city. The
two plant estimates here indicate that
about S250.000 is a fair cost for a
city the size of Lafayette or Rich
mond
The Richmond plants pay $215 for
coal as against about $3.50 cost at La
fayette. The cost of current "at the
switchboard at the municipal plant
is high-1.4 cents. 1t is estimated
that the cost delivered" is Just a
fraction under cents. The genera
tion and delivery costs of the private
company are not publicly known.

Cooperative Intervention

The latest Mexican reports indicate that some
thousand or more are dead as a result of the
fighting about Torreon. This does not include
the number of non-combatants slain, many of
whom have been women and children Nor does
it suggest anything of the property loss. Neith-
er is it possible to tell how many have been
manned and injured.
If it were doing any good to have thousands
dragging mutilated bodies through life, or hun
dreds buried in trenches, women and babies
killed, it would be a different matter. But the
pity of it all is that the present Mexican fighting
is not deciding anything. If Huerta defeats
Villa, some other Villa will head rebellion in an
other section and the real causes for the revou-
ton will remain untouched. If Villa defeats HUI
erta he will still be poweress to effect peace be-
cause he does not have the ability to rule nor
anything like united support. After all this
bloody fighting is concluded, Mexico will be no
nearer peace than before.
Why then should not this useless fighting be
stopped? If the United States will unite with
Central and South American countries for inter-
vention, the combined Powers could bring hostil-
tiles to close and retain control long enough to
permit Mexicos more intelligent classes to make
some headWay toward reorganization.
Mexico is like business corporation that has
for the task and she needs to go into the hands
of a receiver.
This solution of the difficulty would do much
to establish better relationship between
selves and the Latin-American nations. These
republics are, for the most part firm in believ
ing merely lying back waiting for chance
to gobble up the whole of Mexico, as we once COB
bled up Texas.
Pan-American intervention would disillusion
them of this notion and prove to them good
faith, consummation devoutly to be wished be-
the moment were to step into Mexican
territory alone, though we had the best of
intentions, they would be about us like swarm
of bees.
This solution of the difficulty would also save
the administrations face. President Wilson was
undoubtedly sincere in adopting his policy of
"watchful wating' but even his most trustful
supporters believe it to have been a mistake des-
tined to lead to intervention, the very thing the
President most desirous of avoiding. If the
United States does intervene, and intervene by
ton like the Philippines, except that it will be
much more burdensome. But if it intervenes
temporarily in conjunction with other American
republics It will prove to them, to Mexico and to
the world that actions are wholly disnter-
ested

We are a nation of meat eaters and
our blood is filled with uric acid, says
a well-known authority, who warns US
to be constantly on guard against Kid
ney trouble.
The kidneys do their utmost to free
the blood of this irritating acid, but
become weak from the overwork:
they get sluggish; the eliminative It's
sues clog and thus the waste il re-
tanned in the blood to poison the en-
tire system
When your kidneys ache and feel
like Jumps of lead, and you have sting
ing pains in the back or the urine is
cloudy, full of sediment, or the blad-
der is irritable, obliging you to seek
relief during the night: when you
have severe headaches, nervous and
dizzy spells, sleeplessness, acid stom-
ach or rheumatism in bad weather,
get from your pharmacist about four
ounces of Jad Salts; take q table
spoonful in glass of water before
breakfast each morning and in a few
days your kidneys will act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid
OF grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for
generations to flush and stimulate
clogged kidneys. to neutralize the
acids in urine so il is no longer a
source of irritation, thus ending uni

make a mistake by taking a little oc-
casionally to keep the kidneys clean
