Measured, however, in terms of achievement, the fifteen years from 1939 to 1954 that mark the life of Nebraska's publicly-owned Consumers Public Power District represent an era. When Nebraska became a territory in 1854, the vast bene fits to be brought through the harnessing of electric power were still far in the future. It was 25 years later, in 1879, that Thomas Edison invented the first practical incandescent electric light an event that is being commemorated this year by the power industry as the "Diamond Jubilee of Light" under the slogan "Light for Freedom Power for Progress." It was another four years later, in 1883, that Nebraska's first electric light and power company was organized. Slowly, then, .electricity began to work its miracles for the people of Nebraska to light the dark, to ease the drudgery, to make living more enjoyable and work more profitable. Each of these events was of untold significance but most significant of all to Nebraska has been the development cf low-costt electricity, placed within reach of all by thousands of miles of inter-connected high-voltage transmission lines. Today, these lines stand as an ever-growing monument to the pioneer spirit of building for the inn r . . i xuiuie wium, iuu years alter tne ;mv.w;;gWJiyl,1,a.,.,WJ,ay Nebraska territory was opened, still characterizes the people of this state.
