A comparison of the reports of the municipal electric light plant of Alle gheny for the years 1904-05 and 1905-00 reveals one of the most barefaced at tempts to deceive the public that has yet come to our notice. The managers of this plant had deemed It necessary to show a lower cost for street lights than was paid by the ndjacent city of Pittsburg to a private company. Up to 1004-05 this had been accomplished by omitting the charges for water, lost taxes, part of the Interest and some niiuor Items and by charging on ly 5 per cent for depreciation. In that year they showed a "cost" of $83.44. At that time, however, the charge for street lights In Pittsburg was re duced from $00 to $70 a year. In order to meet this bona fide re duction on the part of the Pittsburg company the item of depreciation was omitted from the next report of the Allegheny plant, and a "cost" of $65.64 was thus shown. This would have been bad enough, but the matter was made worse by this statement, which appeared above the table of costs: "The following charges cover the mat ter completely." This statement, which is false, as shown by previous reports of the same plant, has been repealed In subsequent reports. While this is an extreme example of official deceit, It Is only a little more brazen than scores of Blmllar reports which are being put out annually os tensibly to give the citizens of various cities Information In regard to their municipal plants, but the real object of1 which to prevent their knowing how expensive Is municipal manage ment compared with the average prices obtained by contract with private companies.
