THE CANNERY COMPANY.
The Electric Light company,
"th e Forest Grove Cannery C o .,”
deserves every citizen’s gratitude
for the public spirited way in which
they have met the propositions of
the citizen's committee in the
water question. It should be re
membered that the company is
offering property bringing in good
returns with a valuable and exclu
sive franchise with over eleven
years to run, for merely what the
plant cost. The franchise without
the plant would be considered com
mercially worth more than is asked
for the plant. Under city owner­
ship light for house use can be fur­
nished at less than the cost of the
more dangerous and inconvenient,
coal oil. Probably $1000 now goes
out from the Grove for coal oil and
this can all be kept at home, for the
production of electricity will for
the most part require only the pro­
ducts of our own region
The city street lighting will cost
nothing as against $1530 and more
•rc lights can be put in.
NICARAGUA CANAL.
"T h e construction of the Nic­
aragua Canal is of the highest im
portance to the American people,
both as a measure of National de­
fence and to build up and maintain
American commerce, and it should
be controlled by the United State?
