WHAT IT COSTS TO MAKE GAS
tome Illuminating; Statistics
the Report of an Indian
vapolls Company.
from
The Cltleans Gas company of Indian
apolis has issued .a preliminary . report to
tiform stockholders of the results of Its
pcratlons. especially for the month of De
cember, which "was the first month of
operation of the main plant of the com
pany.. The statement 'Is Intended only to
grve some. Idea of the success of tha com
pany to those who desire .Information prior
to the' publication of the annual report. It
Is stated that the latter Is practically com
pleted, hut that It will not be published
until the audit of the books la completed
and the auditor's report la obtained by the
directors. It Is said that the full report will
published about the -middle of February,
"At the close oft the year ih .company
has 6.604 gas meters In use,''' says the.
report. "A' nlimber of others which had
been set were left In houses then vacant..
The gas aold for the month of December
amounted to 17,659,700 cublo feet.
"The company began tha aupply of gaa
on a amall acale In April. Between the
beginning of operations and the end of th
year the company has Jirttnufactured 69,869.
000 cubic feet of 'fater gaa from Its
auxiliary plant, at an" average of 27.6 cents
a thousand cublo -feet In-the holder. The
by-product overt were started In the latter
part of NovomberT and by "December SI the
company had manufactured 22,6.14.000 cubic
feet of coal gaa from Ha main plant at a
coat of one-fourth of 1 cent a thousand
cublo feet for gas In the1 holder. Although
all. of these figures are considered very
gratifying, especially In lew of the dif
ficulties under which the new. plant has
been put in operation, the Improvement of
conditions at th plant will reduce the
labor cost of operation, and when the
second battery of ovena ' la put in use It
will require practically no .more labor to
operate the entire, plant than la now re
quired for half of it.
. "Our report for December shows that
w are now producing genuine CO-cent gas
for the first time In th history of In
dianapolis. Our cost of making water gaa
was exceedingly favorable, and with a fair
volume of buslnesa such gas could bo sold
at 60 ce.nts, but the profits would never be
such that a fair return eould be made to
thoeo who have Invested their money to
establish the eo-cent gas company. By its
owns statements th Indianapolis Gas com
pany has never mad 60-cent gaa, and doea
not expect to be able to do so. It can only
hope to keep the price down to meet our
competition, truatlng that we shall be
compelled to retire from the field and allow
tho price to go up again. Now, however,
90-cent gas is actually being made by us.
"We are operating Only half of our ovens,
and are working under very trying con
ditions on account of the extreme cold this
winter, at ths very time when we would
have our hands full, anyhow, In breaking
In a green force and In adjusting our apara
tus to meet our requirements. Gas Is put
Into our holder at a cost of about one
quarter of 1 cent a thousand cublo feet.
When we begin operating our other ovens
we shall be able to make gaa still more
cheaply, for practically no 'expenses are
Increased, except our coal bills. It Is,
therefore, quite clear that 60-cent gas has
come to stay. If we can continue to have
the generous support which the people of
Indianapolis have given us la the past. We
need a good many mor consumers, and we
believe we shall get them. In the spring.
Meanwhile we are taking; car of all who
desire our service at this time, and we are
dally getting our gaa closer to the point
of absolute uniformity, which It has lacked
for the last month or two, but Is sura to
be reached Us soon as we overcome some
minor Initial manufacturing troubles.
"Our oven gas has never been as low as
f60 heat units, and has usually been nearer
to 7"i0. Its richness has surprised us. and
has given ua a great deal of difficulty be
cause It has caused carbon to form on a
good many burners. Too much of a good
thing is very often objectionable. How
ever, although some of Our consumers have
been Impatient at bur apparent delay In
bringing our gaa down to their require
ments, practically all of them realise that
we have the only fO-cent gaa that can be
counted on. and are willing to give ua
a reasonable time to mak our coal gaa
as much better than our water gas as th
Utter was better than any gaa previously
furnished In this city." Indianapolis News.

I have never heard that an analysis has

vantage point won by the last sklnmlsh in
the combat." ' '. . ... ' ?'
Mr. Rosewater traced the development of
paper, type, press and stereotyping from
tho earliest! date of wl.lch any. knowledge
U obtainable to our own day, to the point
where the linotype machine and the per
fecting press became the usual thing In the
ordinary newspaper office, and said:
"The production of the modern newspaper
is alao largely dependent on, and therefore
concurrent with, the perfection of our
means of rapid communication and trans
portation. The gathering of the news to
day taxes all known devlcea of communica
tion and the distribution of the printed
newspaper calls Into requisition all the
available facilities for transportation. The
growth of the newspaper from a locnl
chronicle of petty happenings and neighbor
hood gcsslp Into the contemporaneous
mirror of world events could proceed no
faster than the evolution of these auxiliary
agencies.
Newspaper of Yesterday.
"But nearly all the achievements which
have made possible the nowspaper of today
would themselves hardly have been possi
ble without the- newspaper of yesterday.
The newspaper has been an aotive con
tributor to the upbuilding as well as a
beneficiary. Its mission has been and Is
to use Its great power to the end of still
further broadening the area of popular In
telligence and helping along the triumph
of truth over Ignorance.
"How does the newspaper1 perform this
part of Its work? It does It by bringing
home to the people what Is disclosed by
the searchlight of publicity directed at all
our human activities. Nowhere has popular
government been really successful without
the existence of a free, vigilant, and un
trammeled public press on guard as the
sentry of Individual liberty, ready to ex
pose corruption and oppression and to
sound the alarm against the approach of
the tyrant. X venture to affirm the belief
that the most potent deterrent of wrong
doing and the most promising corrective of
nearly all our crying abuses, social, In
dustrial and governmental. He In the line
of publicity and the molding of a public
opinion -whose penalties fall more certainly,
and morel heavily, on the offender than
any punishment prescribed by law."
Tendency to Extremes.
iiisiauclng the support of medical pre
ventive measures against the white plague
and other dlseasta as a homely example of
newspaper willingness to aid science in
humanitarian effort, Mr. Rosewater pointed
out the alacrity with which the modern
press gathers and circulates news. He
took the North Pole discovery as a case In
point, and contrasted It with the fact that
it required a century after, the dlntovery
of America for the achievement of Colum
bus to tneom known. He closed his ad
dress In, these words:
"We deplore that newspapera are too
often tenipted to "go to extreme In every
thing and to exaggerate the less important
at the expense of what proves to be the
more Important. But the newspaper la
itself constautly tested in the fiery
furnace pf a discriminating public opinion,
a publlo - opinion becoming all the time
bitter educated and more exacting. As
the level of popular Intelligence Is raised
by the combined efforta of preaa and pul
pit, school and university, the standards of
all theae agencies are bound to be elevated
along with It.
'Ignorance alone. Ilka a dismal swamp.
furnishes the breeding places of noxious
creatures, and each time ignorance Is put
to rout the circle of Intelligence Is widened,
nd the power for evil of Ignorance Is
weakened."

CENTENARIES FOR THIS YEAR

To ths man who know, whole chapter
of history, atlrring chronicles of adven

single date. The mention of one name may,
to the discriminating, sum. up an essay In
literature, art or aclenca. In whloh view
one cannot but approve of the present-day
world's custom of making much of the
anniversaries of the achievements of its'
past as their birthday come around with
the "coursing months." Nineteen nine

men and deeds recalled from Poe In Janu

Dr. Johnson and stout old John Calvin, be

EVERY PERS0N A BOOSTER
How New Ken landers Impress Won
ders of the Country on
Strangers.
To the New Zealander the object of In
terest1 Is the country. He will not gratui
tously talk politics, but, heavens, how he
will talk New Zealand. From dawn to
dark and back to dawn again he'll talk
New Zealand. And thourh New Zealand
la amall not much over 100,000 square miles
and though It hasn't quite 1.000.COO inhabi
tants, counting the Maoris. .of all the peo
ple of the earth who by right can buait of
their country not barr ng Ame leans those
with the best right are that samo nine
hundred and odd thourand New Zealander.
Remember that It wasn't till 18t0 that
New Zealand was really thought of, and
that It was 1870 before the white man had
his feet fairly set upon the shores and had
fought the final battle of the Maori war;
then let him go ahead and talk. What he
says Is inspiring even to an American. It
la all about hi "Ao-tea-roa," his "L'jng-brlght-world."
Long it surely is some
thing like 1.100 miles from tip to tip but
so narrow that one could hardly establish
onesulf 100 miles from the ocean, or from
mountains, olther, for that matter; and
bright so bright that between the showers
the sun germs chining and the breezes
blowing pretty much'ull the l!m. It makes
a climate that Is perfection never either
hot or cold and u soil producing In abun
dance almost anything that floutlshs un
der the blue heavens; while beneath are
gold and sliver, coal. Iron, tin. antimony
and what not. There are vast forests, with
deer-stalking and all that kind of thlnr,
and snow-topped mountains the whole
length of New Zealand, covering the coun
try with streams streams full of trout.
.There are vast tracts which have not
yet been touched, aa hlnta of future possi
bilities end there'a near 4.600 miles of sea
coast, where pretty much all the fish that
flourish are founS wsimming.

without a headache" they have christened

the climate, and they grow eloquent, be
sides, over every imaginable marvel of
wild nature and every phase of nature'
grandeur and beauty to be found the world
over Norwegian coast wIldneFB, Switzer
land's mountain glories, with a native
fauna and flora unparalleled. And the
marvel of It Is that they do not exaggerate
because words can't. The goods are
there. Every New Zealander's heart Is full
of New Zealand.
There are no millionaires In New Zea
land. Wealth is distributed more widely
and equitably through the people than In
any other country on the globe. Poverty,
as tho won! Is understood elsewhere, does
not exist. There are no beggars except
the Salvation Army. There are no trusts,
no private monopolies. Industrial peace
prevails. There are no political machines.

of gloom still pervaded the Navy depart
