Beforo thfs city mnkos a now con duct, for electric lighting there ahoulJ Ibe a. thorough Investigation of what other communities hare accomplished TwJth .public ownership, ' tl there 1b a water-power avaltaulo to be convorted Into an electric light 8ns and p,ower plant, the question of tpabllc ownership should be given a ftlr and Impartial trial. Tha present !iy tehartor porralta of this being dose. 22ie Journal would llko to submit tuuao facts on the question of tho ad wstitages of a public lighting plant. XNo doubt many of our readers have al u Xacts and experiences to hear out war contention that public ownership xwonld glvo better sorvlco for less ox rfense. Any such facts we would bo tgtnd lo publish. We have a letter from E. S. Nichols, dltor of tho Auglalzo County Demo crat, to a friend, dated July 2, 1004, totttloalng tho soventh annual report af Old Wapakoneta, Ohio, public dec itrto lighting plant. He says In his lot ting "Enclosed you will find tho last an mail report of the tnuteas, which will tzlvo you an excollent Idea of tho sue- vent of tho plan Tho amount Invested Is about $100,- 00. Tho Intorost on bonds amounts tto 5120; the net earnings ICS39.72; ttotal earnings on investment $10, SCTJ2, or about 11 por cont. In addl ttlwi to this, as you woll know, our Tptxplo ot a much more liberal supply df wntor than they woull from a pri vate company.

Tho tnrlfty Yankees of Maine, with lesser acreage and not so much mone'y In their purses, have taken the proffer of tho United States to do tho work of survey on tho co-operative plan, with the United States paying one half and tho state of Maine, as well as In Texas, that something had to be ' done In the matter, and tho question of cost is secondary. Texas has tho largest woodland ncreago of any ono of tho forty-five states. Flvo years ago It was esti mated at 61,000 square miles. This year's estimate places It at only 27,000 , square miles, an enormous acreage but one that will not last long If the ' rato of annual cutting 12C.OO0 acres Is kept up. Sho has within her for ests no less than 61 species of com mercially Important and valuable timber, tho Industry being ranked only ' by hor cotton and cattle products. i In Maine tho fire losses of 1903 woro estimated at tho largo sum of $1 000,000. tho burned area exceeding 250,000 acres. Tho survey under way Is for tho purpose of furnishing a basis for legislation ombodylng suprovlslon of prlvato forests and for the pur chase of forost ranged by tho state, tho extinction of private ownership being tho ultlmato object. ronnsyivania nns not only pur- warrants were Issued on the various funds as follews: Roads $12,502.59 Pauper 342.71 Justice 202.75 Sheriff . 387.13 Clerk 254.17 X-RADIUMS No one ever stops to enquire to what parfly "Coin" Harvey, "Calamity" Wei- ler, and ex-Senator Pettlgrew belong. .
