Duluth Edison Electric company,
according to a recent statement
OF the president in the daily pa
pers, has 1928 per cent loss of
current in operation, whereas the
proposed new municipal plant,
owing to it's more modern con-
struction, would have a loss of
not to exceed II per cent. Hence
| the cost of operation will be tho
minimum.
1t is proposed to use not to ex-
ceed the sum Of $85, 10000, which
the water and light department
has on hand, for the construction
OF the first unit, thus rendering
a bond issue or any increased
taxation unnecessary. The amount
authorized to be spent in the con-
struction Of the first unit it $685.
$4,000, but as a matter Of fact
OWING to the. present low prices
OF copper wire, poles, etc., a re-
cent estimate by the engineers Of
the water and light department
show that the unit can be built
for not to exceed $72,OOO.O0, if
the city decides to do so at the
present time.
It is because the original cost,
the maintenance and depreciation
charges, and the cost of operation,
are all at the lowest possible
minimum under the Unit Plant
System, that it's advocates believe
it is the best thing for the people

no matter who owns and oper-
ates the plant. If the Duluth
Edison operates their plant, they
want the people to pay six cents {;
if the city buys the Duluth-Ed-
lson plant, the city will have to
charge four cents; if the city puts
in unit plant, it can make a
profit at three cents. That's the
whole story.

In order that the public may
understand what is meant by the
proposed Unit System. of con-
structing an electric light and
power plant, the following brief
description is given.
First and most important of
all is the fact that a unit plant
is solely a distributing plant. It
does not require a central gener-
ating plant, which in other sys-
TENS constitutes most of the Or
iginal cost Of an electric light
and power system and necessi-
tates most of the high-priced
technical supervision in opera
tion. The generating plant is al
ready built and is owned and op-
Grated by the Great Northern
Power company. The franchise
granted by the city of Duluth to
this power company contains
proper provision for furnishing
the proposed municipal plant
with electric current at very low
rates. The city, therefore, does
not have to incur any of that Or
iginal cost or pay for any high
priced technical supervision.
The engineers who have drawn
the plans for the proposed Unit
System for the municipal elec-
trio light and power plant have
worked out very simple distri-
button system which the city can
install at a very moderate cost,
and which can be operated at a
minimum expense, thus furnish
ing the public with electric light
and power at the least possible
cost.
Under the unit system of con-
struction it is proposed to build
a series Of six Small distributing
stations. Each station will be a
small one-story building of sim
pie construction, not exceeding
30 feet square. These stations will
contain transformers for reducing
the current which is received
from the Great Northern Power
company to low voltage, and
then distributing it direct to the
