The North Platte semi-weekly tribune. (North Platte, Neb.) 1895-1922, March 10, 1922, Image 2
THE NORTH PLATTE SEMI-WEEKLY TRIBUNE WANT RETT Bit STREET LIGHTING Quite a number of residents, Including sonic who live in the Fourth Wurd, havo sug gested that the Chamber of Commcrco use its in fluonco in an offort to secure a better street lighting system. Whilo candor compels all to admit that our lighting system is much inferior to that of the average Nebraska town, yet it is a problem how, under present conditions, im provement is possible. The state law fixes the maximum number of mills that can bo levied for street lighting and that maximum has been levied for a num ber of years past with the result that the funds obtained have only been sufficient to maintain the system as it now exists. The question therefore arises in what manner can funds bo obtained to pay for the increased elec tric current which an improved lighting system would demand? In many Nebraska instances the reason why towns have well lighted streets is because the Street lights are supplied from a municipally owned plant and the cost of operation is not re stricted to a certain levy of taxes. It is probable that some day the people of North Platte will decide to combine a power plant for street lighting with the water plant STREET PAVING People generally are bemoaning business and labor conditions, and are wondering when a more visible upward trend will come, and yet as an individual or as a community, how can we expect Improved conditions If wo do not assist in bringing about the desired end? Certainly we must do our part, for it would be selfish and un fair for North Platte to hang back and depend upon other communities to do those things which will bring about better conditions.. Tak ing thiB as the proper view, North Platte can certainly be, and will bo, commended for pro ceeding with its paving improvements, thus giv ing employment in its construction, and to some extent increasing demand for labor at the plants where the'necessary material is manufactured. If every town or city will spend as much pro portionally in a public improvement way within the next three or four months as will North Platte, the ranks of the unemployed will bo won derfully reduced and business conditions won derfully, improved. North Platte has taken the right step. IMPROVING WELLEIjEET ROAR During the past ten days a gang of men and nmi then we can have a brilliantly lighted city.; teams have been working on tho Thoelecke hill Until such a time, however, wo cannot hope tor much of an improvement in our ktroet lighting system. INCREASE IN SCHOOL TAXES In 1908 there were 1,1(56 children of school ago in tho North Platte school district and tho total tax levied that year for their education was $19,451, or an average of $16.68 per pupil. In 1921 wo taxed ourselves $154,036 for educating the 2,553 children of school ago, or Yin avorago of $63-35 per child; During those fourteen years the yearly cost of conducting tho schools has increased nearly 800 per cent, the school popula tion has increased 110 per cent and the cost per pupil nearly 400 per cent. FINANCES Subscriptions to the Chamber of Com nlerco 1922 Budget up to March 1st totaled $6, 253, with several business men yet to respond with subscriptions that may run the total to $6, 500, or $1,000 less than last year- Expenditures for February wore $491.29 including $160 turned over to tho South Side Survey Association. Bank balance has dropped to less than $300, but sub scriptions totaling $1,500 are duo April 1st. nnd it is hoped that these win do paiu promptly. on tho Wollfleot road, and as now proposed by the county commissioners we will have a new route to Wellfleet boforo next fall. It is the in tention of tho commissioners to abandon the present trail through the sandhills and lay out practically a new route the greater part of the way between the Montague ranch and Wellfleet. Tho McCook and Maywood people insist that the proposed state aid road between Oberlin, Kan., and North Platte, shall not be routed via Well- fleet and upon this proposition there has been a "locking of horns." The commissioners feel, and rightly bo, that Wellfleet is a Lincoln county town and is entitled to more consideration than villages outside the county. HIDS FOR ICE HOUSES At least two bids for the group of big ice houses owned by the Union Pacific company wero filed by local parties. One of these bid ders made an offer with the purpose of dispos Ing of tho lumber to farmers and others; the other party would like to use at least several of the buildings for storage purpooses if consent to allow tho buildings to stand can be secured. It is understood, however, that on account of the fire hazard the company wants the buildings torn down.
