DEFICITS Can not

MISSION SLASHES IDAHO
POWER co. VALUES.

Boise - CA. P.) = Idaho's public
utilities commission ruled today that
the value of the Idaho Power. COM
pany, upon which the power users of
the system are required to pay fair
return" is not 1885,, $3.50, as origin
ally claimed by the company, but only
$11 ,638, ,495. OF this greatly reduced
total, the commission decided $1,542,-
095 worth Of property is not entitled
to full return.
Thus bringing to an end hard
fought battle of more than two years
duration, the commission in effect
awarded victory to the Southern Ida
no Power Users association, which
had intervened to prevent a sharp
and general increase of power rates
which it was held would have been
inevitable had the power company's
own valuation been accepted at the
true basis for the new rates.
Eliminate Many Items.
Eighteen Idaho and one Oregon
item of company properties are in
cluded in the most important slashes
made by the utilities commission as
having no place in the service concern
by reason of being nonco-operative'
Altogether the elimination of these
items cut little less than $3,O00,O0O
from the valuation.
Other eliminations were made
through cutting out the element OF
" cost of obtaining money" the ex-
pense involved in borrowing money
with which to build and develop pro-
perties. In this stroke, $1,245,577 was
cut out Of the value set up by the
power people.
Can Not Capitalize Deficits.
The sum of $1,972,087 went into
he discard on the rule that the COM
Dany can not capitalize it's deficits.
The power people had added this sum
IN the ground that it represented
money lost in years during the growth
If their business.
More than $1,500,000 was cut out,
because it was held to represent in
lated purchase prices of some in
ividual companies.

CANDELMAS IN EVERY HOME
SUGGESTED BY H. Fl. MITCHELL.

Tradition says "A lighted candle
set in your window on Christmas eve
will guide the Babe of Bethlehem to
your home that he may bring you
happiness Why should not all
Christian folk observe this pious Gus
tom? Everyone of us can light a
candle on Christmas eve and place
it in the window and know the Joy
of sending its kindly glow out into
the darkness. So light your candle
and warm your heart. The custom
has been observed from time i'm
memorial in Ireland and also in Nor
way and Sweden. Boston was the
first place in America to start the
custom, ten years ago. In New York,
1918, was the third celebration. The
first year a few homes, next year
over 1000, and now nearly every
home within 40 mile radius. 1t has
spread from there to other parts and
California, Wisconsin, Florida, and
other states have lighted their candles
at these mystic fires. 1t is one more
sweet thought of the vision of Christ
mas, let us help to promote it'll. H.
