PREMATURE GRATITUDE.
ASTORIA. Aug. 22.-Edltor Astorian
The public Is glad, that the council
got the light question settled before
the regatta, as It would have been al
most disgraceful If the city had been
In darkness during the regatta. It Is
to be hoped that the city will profit
by Its four months' experience In dark
ness and not get Into that predica
ment again.
The council deserve a vote of thanks
for not tying the city up In a long
contract. Competition 'In the light
business Is what this community wants.
and If the council had made, a long
contract. Just that long would .com
petition have been barred. If the city
ever gets low rates on lights It will
have to be done by competition, which
Is th life of trade.
Now the water commission will have
plenty of time to get the best plans
and all the . Information obtainable,
and by having plenty of time, can
construct a lighting system at the
least possible cost. CITIZEN.
(Cltlxen seems to be a little prema
ture In expressing Ms pleasure that
the light question Is settled. Ed.)
