CITY COUNCIL RAISES
ANTE FOR LIGHT AND
WATER AND SALARIES
Increase in Rates Charged to Use
Necessary on Account of In
creased Cost to Operate
ORDINANCE CHANGE
ADOPTED FOR RATES
viii Take Effect at End of Month
Superintendent Jones and His
Many Helpers Given substan-
tiaI Raise in Wages

Elsewhere in this issue of The
Clarion appears the yoluminous pro-
ceedings of the recent double meet
ing of the city council. 1t is inter-
esting reading and among the most
interesting part of the minutes is
the new ordinance adopted by a
unanimous vote of the aldermanic
body which raises rates on both
water and electric current in proper
tion to the increased cost of the
production
Superintendent Jones, at the ini-
tial meeting of the council, Tuesday
night of last week, in presenting his
monthly report, made it plain that
such increase was vitaIly necessary
Everything, the superintendent says,
which the plant requires and has to
be bought costs much more than it
formerly did. As an instance, the
reader is pointed to the price being
pau AOA 4uOA O41 1O1 GuC 0A54nC5 cS
compared with the price some time
ago. This is not all, we understand,
for wiring, repairs, etc, and few
more ct ceteras, have all kited sky
ward.
An ordinance embodying the SUI
Iperintendent's recommendations was
forthwith drawn up, presented to the
council at the second half of the
meeting and formally adopted This
ordinance takes effect the latter part
of the present month and bill rem
Edered for June service will show an
appreciable increase, unless, to be
sure, consumers cut down their use
|of the city's water and electric
tjuiee,"
BY resolution offered By one az
derman and adopted by a vote Of
three to two, the salaries of the su-
perintendent and everyone Of his
helpers was increased. The high
cost of living has hit these men as
well as everyone else and as in
creased salaries are the rule every
where the council thought it wise
that they should be better rewarded.
