Editor Tidings: I was very much pleased to see the report on the light plant by H. O. Frohbach. It is just what we all wanted to know. And yet that statement U a little mis leading for this reason. Before Ash land owned her light plant my flat rates on meter was $1.35 per month, with the other electric light company. As soon as we put in the Ashland plant they put the flat rate to $1. Then for convenience we will say that there was a reduction of 20 per cent. It so, according to the report in the last Tidings, the total income of the Ashland plant the past ten months was $14,674.82. Now, that being four-fifths of what we would have had to pay the old company, the amount we would have paid for the ten months would have been $18, 343.50, a saving of $3,66S.6S for the ten months. Now let us look at the October ac count. Total income, $1,611.01. Hut If it was not for our plant we would have paid the other plant for Octo ber $2,014.50. Month's expense of our plant, $1,900.69. A saving for the month of $113.81, for the month of October, by owning our own plant. So you see there are two sides to the question yet, and we should look at what we did pay without competi tion and what we pay now. One word as to the proposed fire truck. Will such a truck be able to go up all the streets of Ashland at all times of the year, or would it not be best to have hose carts In about five different parts of the city? This is all as I look at it. Yours, 13. N. SMITH, 124 Morton St. Men's League of the Congregational Church.
