OFF Again, On Again.

The Tribune went into the error bus
mess last week through the overlooking
of properly crediting an item taken
from Platteville paper relative to the
lighting Tor inability to light rather) OF
Livingston and the Coker and Els
worth mines by the Interstate Light
and Power Co. of Galena. OF course
said company is unable to furnish light
and power to those places, because il
hasn't got the job.
Light for Livingston and power for
those mines are furnished by the Public
Service Co. of Mineral Point, and it is
but simple justice to the latter company
to say that it has experienced no such
trouble as spoken of in the extract from
the Platteville paper
