business houses and residences for
hestlnr purposes. It Is declared by the
experts that electricity can be fur
nished for heating purposes in Cali

the business of the company to the
furnishing of electricity for. heating
purposes.
The engineers have been working in
the mountains for the past several
weeks and have several" water power
sites In view, any one of which. It is
said. Is capable of producing sufficient
power to heat this city and Oakland.
The electricity can be sold for less
than 24 cents the 1000 kilowatts.
I. C. MrWatter, grenoral manager
and vice-president of 10 of the leading
power companies of Idaho, is at the
Palace Hotel In connection with the
proposed power development of the
