Ihe greatest Impression made
upon him was by Uie electric lights
In Ban Francisco. He would tell
many limes In the course of his
tales that everything would event
ually be done by electricity. His
audience was politely attentive but
sceptical.
Some day electricity made on

this would be accomplished, he
would reply with a confidence born

FIRHT POWER' PLANT
The llrst power plant In this
area was constructed on the Shasta
River a few miles norui of
Yroka In YtSl.
During tho next few years aim!- i
lar small plants were Installed at
many points throughout Northern ;
Calllornia and Southern Oregon. I
Practically all of them were In
stalled Initially to serve a single j
purpose, such as Ihe operation ol
a sawmill. Hour mill, mine, Irri
gation pump or even a brewery.
The plants were generally of auf
licicnt size to serve, the primary
purpose only, and because most ol
them were operated on direct cur
rent, their transmission capabili
ties were limited.
Power was supplied to the public
principally lor lighting, on a sched
ule which normally started one
hour bcloro sun-up . and continued
until 8 p.m., 10 p.m. or midnight,
depending upon Uie operator. Ser
vice was indifferent, limited and
costly. The average rates Were
aboul 35 cents per kilowatt hours.
Shortly alter the turn ol the
century, men of vision constructed
larger plants, opcrsting on alter
nating current, extended transmis
sion lines, provided 24-hour ser
vices, encouraged industry and
started a continuing program of
technological advancement.
