PRIVATE SITES IDLE

There is another circumstance
often overlooked. and that u that
a great many OF the best water
powers In the country are already
In private hands and are not be-
ing developed.
This IL the case with Cheian
Falls In our own state. with tho
essential parts OF Kettle Falls on
the Columbia river, with Priest
rapids on tho Columbia river.
which Is already developed In
part: with Potomac Falls here
at Washington city. where there
are available markets In Phila.
delphla and baltimore. and all
the dense population surround
ing.
IL has not been developed. be-
cause the coal companies and
railroads are making more money
out OF the use OF the coal. It's
transportation. etc.
AS TO the value attached TO
these power sites for which the
power companies desire 10 give
nothing at all. placed in the
Record OF Congress some relia-
Bile statistics showing the almost
iucaienlable ultimate value Of
these properties.
