The Hydro Electric Company
is Busy
Every business block from First to Sixth street and between the
railroad and State street is now being served by the Hydro
Electric Company with light and power.
A crew of linemen is pushing the lines into the residence dis
districts and many homes are already lighted by the Hydro"
Electric Company. This work will be continued as expediti
ously as possible to reach our many patrons in the city. We
will then extend our lines into the suburban districts.
The long term contracts we offer protect our patrons against a
possible temptation of this company or its successor to charge
higher rates in the future. Our rates for light and power
lower than charged at any other place in the Northwest will
return us a satisfactory revenue, because we pay no interest on
bonded debt to Wall Street, and because of the economy with
which we can produce electric energy from this valley's great
est natural asset, the falling wraters of Hood River. Power sold at
the price at which we can sell it will promote industrial business.
Yours for a larger Hood River,
The Hydro Electric Company
