TELLS BASIS OF
LIGHTING CHARGE
COMPANY ANSWERS COUNCILS
MISUNDERSTANDING FREE
THIS MONTH.

Offering to furnish the city street
lights on a month to month basis at
a lower figure than the old contract
but at 10 per cent increase over
what it offered to light the city for
on year contract, the Olympia Light
& Power company formally replied to
the city council Thursday in re-
Spouse to the resolution adopted by
the council last week, directing it
to resume the service September /.
The company's first answer to the
resolution was to turn the lights on
voluntarily last Saturday night and to
announce that they would be contin-
ued free of charge for the remainder
Of the month. This action met with
favorable comment generally. The
lights had been off since March II.
In its communication to the coun-
Gil Thursday the company says: I'VE
interpret your request to turn on the
lights as indicating your intention to
pay for them at the rates named in
the old contract. After due consider
alton of the matter we have decided
to make voluntary reduction in the
rates as great as the conditions under
which you require the service to be
furnished will permit and will render
bill for the same at an advance Of 10
per cent on the rates offered you for
one year on the so c. p. lights and the
arcs at a per cent increase. This
would make the rate ON 80 c. p. lamps
1928 1-3 per month and on the arcs
$6.77h per month"
DiRerence I'm Contracts.
The company then gives . series Of
tables showing the difference In cost,
under its offers. on the month to
month basis. the highest. and for one.
fve or ten years, the last being the
least expensive. On a yearly basis
the difference would be. the company
says: Old contract, $s.2s4; 1o-year
$3.50; 6-year contract.
$3.50: 1-year, $4.440. and from
month to month. $6.636.40. q saving
Of $1,000 on q 10-year basis, $2,4S4
on 5-year, 1891 on the 1-year and
only $627.60 on the month to month
plan. Referring to these figures, the
company concludes:
1T would seem that the large sum
which could be saved to the taxpay-
ers by entering into a contract for
time (street lighting con-
tracts throughout the country ordi-
narily run either Ave or ten years.
would commend such an arrange
nent.
No Change In Lights.
Under the month to month meth
ID it would be impossible for US to
make the change from arcs to large
ncandescents, there being no guar
Intee of their continued suse. and this
accounts for the great difference IN
he cost OF lighting with and without
! contract.
"As you have observed we have un-
lertaken to light Olympia at our own
expense for the remainder of this
month to prevent additional harm
icing done the city by a continuation

relief to our citizens.
