$500 REWARD
I herewith offer $500.00 reward for tho arrest
and conviction of tho parties who cut Salem
Electric wires on the Portland Road Monday,
lanuary 12th.
Bonneville delivers within the city limits for Salem citizens all of the low cost
electric power the area will ever require, and .we of Salem Electric, who have and use
it, feel that it is for you too, should you wish It But how far should we go to keep
the channels open to you? '
Our servants. Mayor Elfstrom and three out of the four councilmen now seeking
re-election, denied the Hollywood district a public hearing on their rights and free
dom to have if they wish; their own Bonneville, through their own Salem Electric.
They denied to Salem Electric equal rights and offered instead a franchise that they
could terminate in 90 days and which would, if accepted by Salem Electric directors,
wipe out our local enterprise and, add 25 to 55 to the power costs of those who are
now enjoying the power of the poor man and of Industry. Ninety days would not be
sufficient time should the citizens wish-to recall these gentlemen. 1
Just what charms PGE may have or what Interests some of our councilmen have
in that power monopoly, may never be known. But how far they will go to keep
the citizens pouring cream into the monopolies treasury is now on the records. It
seems that Salem citizens will have to wrestle from their own councilmen rights
demanded by our forefathers and made a part of our constitution by the 14th amend
ment. As we get closer to the solution of that wire cutting, it begins to look as though
some who will seek your votes for re-election, sanctioned it and ordered the arrest
of those of us who attempted to restore service to that citizen, by recent annexation,
who for four days, bad his freedom from PGE and would be saving $5.00 of an
$15.00 power bill and $11.00 on a $34.00 bill, etc.
