WANT AN EXPERT TO SURVEY THE TOWN

Ity at 1'rcnent.
At the next meeting of the city council
the matter of hiring nn expert to make an
electrical survey of the city will again coma
up , nnd a committee from the Economic
league will be present to urge the council
to take affirmative action. So far as can be
learned , n majority of the city council are
In favor of letting the contract for lighting
the city with gas and electric light to the
present company , whoso charter expired
about six years ngo , nnd whose contr.tct
expires In a llttlo less than three months.
The representatives of the Economic league
claim not to have any particular prejudice
against the Council Bluffs Uas and Eli'Ctrlc
Light company , but to bo merely Insisting
that the rates for light shall be brought
down to somewhere within reasonable fig
ures.
ures.Tho work of"nn expert , they clilm , Is
necessary to determine Just what Is n rea-
sonab'c ' figure The council at Its last meet
ing voted down the question of engaging
nn expsrt , because It was represented to
them that he would charge $25 per day
for the four days' work It would take to
nmUe the survey and the plats. Those who
have been Investigating the subject afsert
that It Is possible for good gas to be
furnished a cost not to exceed 50 cents
per 1,000 for heating and $1 per 1,000 for
llghtlirg , while the public now has to pay
$1 GO nnd $2. A corresponding reduction
should bo made In the cost of nrc lights ,
mid the result would bo a tremendous reduc
tion In the amount , of taxation
There Is onn o'cmcnt of opposition to the
plan of shutting out tlie Council Bluffs nnd
Electric Light company which has not been
tal.pn Into account very much , but has tx-
crted a powerful Influence. There are now
on deposit In the various city banks , It Is
claimed , more than $200,000 worth of the
company's bonds , held by the banks ns se
curity for money loaned In years put
Those bonds furnish all the security HIP
Innks have , and If nny wni were made on
the compiny , It Is easy to see that the batiks
would find themselves out of pocket to
the amount of the depreciation In the com
pany's stock. All the citizens of Council
Blurts who are financially Interes''d In the
banks nre consequently opposing "he Idea
of awarding the contract to any company
excepting the one now In existence. It Is
likely that the agitation will result In nn
appreciable reduction of the tolls now
charged.
The following communication received at
The Bee office jcstcrday bears upon the sub
ject :
WHAT A CITIZEN THINKS.
COUNCIL BLUFFS , July 19. To the Editor
of The Bee- March 12 , ISO I , the Council
Bluffs Gas and Electric Light company ad
dressed the following communication to the
city olllclals"To the Mayor of Council
Bluffs , In. ' Under the contract for lighting
the city , bearing date September 17 , 1SS9 , It
Is provided as follows4
" 'It Is further agreed that the city of
Council Bluffs shall have the hole option , on
the cxplintlon of live jtars , to extend this
contract for the term of five years more. It
Is also provided that the company shall de
mand of said city In writing , six months
before the expiration of this contract ,
whether It Intends to exercise the option of
extending this contract as herein or not. '
"March 11 , 1S9I , Is six months before the
expiration of said contract. The undersigned
company hereby agrees to the five year ex-
tcns'on ' of tald contract on the terms and
conditions therein found and hereby requests
the city to decide by proper order whether It
Intends to exercise the option of extending
this contract as therein agreed , and If It
will do so. - ,
"Under the present contract for lighting
the city , dated September 17 , 1SS9 , the price
per lamp for 1890 was J100 ; 1S91 , $93 ; 1S92 ,
$9G ; 1893 , $94 ; 1S9I , $92. If the contract is
extended five jears , the price will be : For
1893 , $90 ; 1S9G , $ SS ; 1S97 , $80 ; 1S98 , $84 ; 1899 ,
$82 , nnd the company Is compelled to pur
chase the Iron towers owned by the city at
$520 cnch. " u * . * , v
Whal are you city officials Intending to
do In this matter ? The sum of $90 per year
for a lamp that burns but little more than
halt the time looks like a good deal of
money. It ought to bo Inveitlgated. The
committee appointed by the city coun
cil , aided by that appointed by
the Economic club , has had a good deal
of correspondence , accumulated a good deal
of data , but the only official that has read
any of It Is Mr. Nicholson. Mr. Hauss , an
electrical eng necr of Cincinnati , 0. , writes
Mr. Nicholson that the "average cost of pro
ducing a 2,000 candle power arc lamp In
this country Is $6 per lamp per month. "
That Is the average co t of a lamp burning
all night not half the night. The cost In
clude' ' ] nil expenses , Inclusive of Interest
upon the Investment.
Now , It Is clear that If the average cost
of producing this light Is but $72 per annum
for n lamp burning all night nnd every
night , $90 per year for a lamp burning but
little more than half the night can only bo
Jtibtlfied by showing this to be aery ex
ceptional town. Wlio says that ? What are
his reasons for saying It ? Why are the
city officials acting , nppirently , on the theory
that this Is aery exceptional place ? If
they ha\e Information to that effect why
not disclose It ? SUBSCRIBER.

CDOCMONT , S. D. , J/uly / 1C. ( Special Cor-
rcspondence. ) Mono of I Ho tymptoms of
business depression , fliiancl.il stringency or
conmierclnl lethargy prevailing to a greater
or less extent throughout the country arc
to bo detected In this thriving m tlrcpubllc
city In this exceedingly democratic summer
of 1S9I. Bustle , push , development and lin-
piovcmcnt constitute the order of the da ) ,
and under the Impetus of this steiuly progres
sion the foundation of a Ihe and prosperous
city has been well laid.
S tuated as It Is at the edge of the Ulack
Hills , with the mnrvoloualy rich peaks and
hollo\v3 of that wonderful region stretching
away 100 miles to the northward , and tens
of thousands of acres of river valley and
bench lands rolling far to the west , east
and south , oflorlng unuiuulled Inducements
for agriculture and grazing , ndgemonl pos
sesses natural advantages that cannot be
exceeded , and It Is upon these and their In
telligent development that her c tlren * have
so ( Irmly and happily pinned their faith.
The Initial move was made b > the railroad
company , as Is almost Invariably the case
In tne opening up or a new country , and the
town of Edgemont , slgnlfjlng , as the name
Implies , "tho edge of the mountain , " was
thus born.
Us location made It of necessity a Junc
tion point , and because of Its many advan
tages and the future that was apparent for
It , the 11 A. M. company seized tlmo by the
forelock and made It u division terminus ,
locating here Its round house and all the
plant and equipment necessary for the opera
tion of Us Ul.uk Hills division.
Prom lodgement the nnd was built to
Newcastle , where the great Cambrl.i coal
mines were at once opened up , affording con
stant omploj incut to 400 men nnd having an
output of 1,000 tons per day , or ne.\rl > 500-
000 tons annually. The rapid development of
the 1111 s country called for almost Immo-
iHate further extension of the lines , and from
lodgement a line was built to Ueadwood
lodgement's twin sister on the north et'gs '
of the Hills , cutting almost exactly In twain
what President Marvin Hnghltt of the
Chicago & Northwestern , cnaracterlzes as ,
"the rlcheit 100 miles squat c of territory
In the world , " Away to the northeastward
diving still deeper into the heart of the
hills , another branch line was built to Hot
Springs , that wonderful health and pleasure
resort so aptly denominated "the Carlsbad
of America , " the future of which e.-cn the
most sangulno cannot adequately foretell.
Such Is the location of Ecgemontwith
reference to the Black Hills , literally nnd
In fact the gateway city Uirough which
must come the untold millions of bin led
treasure now barely hidden Trom view , and
certain , with the recent Improvements In
reduction processes , to bo speedily uncovered
and placed upon the markets of the world
All but two of the knQwn minerals are
found In paying quantities In the Ulack
Hills , nnd the extension of the railroad
has rendered localltic.3 now accessible and
susceptible of working that were hitherto
barred for that very reason. illn
Ing experienced a setback , as did
all other Industales i nnd branches
of business , but It Is now picking up rapidly ,
and there Is mere placer gold mining going
on In the Hills today than , over before. The
gold output will clotely approximate $6,000-
000 this jcar. Tha natural outlet for all this
wealth of mineral and t precious metal is
Gdgemont , and more especially InIew of
the certain contact Uiero"wlth the coal and
coke from Newcastle ; the latter being of a
quality that Is hot exceeded any A hero In
the world. It Is burneU In large quantities
nnd renders the location of a large smelter
at Edgenipnt as certain 'Ifs any of the un
known posslblllfles of the near future. The

that point Is very slight , as It Is a down
grade , and the coal trains from Newcastle
are made up of fifty loaded cars , bearing 2,000
tons of the black fuel , vvhllo the same is
true of the grade on the Deadwood line , Im
mense ore trains to ndgemont being possi
bilities , vvhllo seven or eight loaded cars Is
the limit the other way.
OTHER PROMISING FEATURES.
But while certain to profit Immeasurably
from the mineral wealth of the Hills , Edge-
mont la not depending solely upon that for
her future growth nnd prosperity. That Is
merely an Incident that wld contribute to
her coming greatness , for agriculture In the
surrounding valleys promises ns much for
this little city ns the mining In the adjacent
hills.
The soil of the valleys and higher bench
lands Is of tha kind to make glad the heart
of the husbandman , water being the only
essential for a heavy crop that Is not natur
ally furnished In abundance.
This year Its lack Is not apparent , for it
has been the wettest season ever known In
the Hills country and crops arc all that could
bo desired. Corn , grass , small grain nnd
vegetables are of a quality that would at
tract attention at a state fair. This simply
shows what the soil will do under favorable
conditions , and It may bo stated hero that
favorable conditions for good crops will exist
In the vicinity of Edgemont hence
forth. Regardless of the rainfall ,
soil tillers In the Cheyenne
valley will be strangers to drouth , for the
Edgemont company has Just about com
pleted n $00,000 Irrigation nnd power canal ,
and Is going Into the crop Insurance business
on a large scale. The canal taps the Chey
enne river fourteen miles above the city , Just
below the mouth of Beaver Creek , swings
over to the edge of the bench lands , and Its
mains and laterals will Irrigate 10,000 acres
of as pretty bottom land as the summer sun
ever shone nbove , while below the city the
tall race will furnish the water for 2,000
acres more.
But the Edgemont company , made up of
capitalists with not only the perspicacity to
foresee the possibilities of the future and
the brains to plan for them , but the money
as well to put those plans Into execution , did
not stop with the building of an Irrigation
canal. It was made for a slzo to furnish
power , ami factories destined to lo
cate In this promising section of
the great northwest will find
hero 10,000 natural horse po-.7er developed
for the use of man. But It was not the In
tention to write In this article of the canal
and the seventy-two loom woolen mill now
In course of erection , nor of the train load
of machinery from Philadelphia now block
ing the loner railroad yaras and waiting
to bo placed In position In the mill as soon
as completed. The same Is true of the
sheep raisers of this section , who arc al
ready negotiating cpntracts with the manu
facturers for their reason's clipping , of
drouth-suffering farmers who arc seeking
new locations In the Irrigated Chcyonnc
valley ; of the scores of now buildings now
In course of erection ; of the grading of
streets , and the many evidences of metro-
polltanlsm that this wonderful llttlo city Is
rapidly putting on ( In , fact , of what has
been done to Increase Edgemonfs popula
tion from 300 to 1,100 In three months , and
of what will mako'lt ' a city of G.OOO people
Inside of three years.
As Mr. Kipling says , , "that Is another
story. "
Edgomont Is undoubtedly to bo congratu
lated In having BO wealthy and enterprising
a corporation as the Edgemont company be
hind It , as It Is thus put In a position to
more speedily realize Ha hopes , but the
confidence In Its future Is by no means
confined to the members of that company
The actual citizens of the town arc largely
from central nnd weitcrn Nebraska and
from other towns In the Hills. They are
thoroughly Informed as to surrounding con
ditions and the possibilities of the future ,
and they are banking on that confidence to
the extent of putting every dollar they can
get hold of Into real estate , Even the men
working their teams on the cam ) construc
tion work put part of their earnings Into
land , batlsfled that with assured crop * , fac
tories with cheap power and the Increased
population that each would bring , there could
be but one outlook for ndgemont realty.
They have done 'what Hon. W
! ' . Ourley so strongly advocated
at a recent monthly banquet
of tha Omaha Commercial club. In reply
to a number who d ri1 ihw r w > t
resolution * which accompllihcd n < tlil'tR .lr
Ourlcy took the other side , nnd In a ringing
speech gnld It made nil the difference In the
world whether the parties pausing the reso
lutions meant what they said. He declared
that If 100 of the wealthy and representa
tive men of the city should get together nnd
resolve that Omaha must ho made n great
city , "and menu It , " there would lie such a
rattling of dry banes as had never b en
known before , nnd things would hum Inside
of three months. The citizens of Edgemont
nro ful.y . alive to their possibilities , nnd
they are not nlone In that realization. They
have resolved that Edgemont shall speedily
take the position In the business world which
she Is destined to fill. And "they mean It. "
