? tuwri can make a little
j j money if it charges 15 cents as at
present, hut if it sells current at 8 1-2
cents, it will Certainly lose money.
Since people have stood a 15-cent
charge about a kitn; as they -will
'stand for it, the town v.-ill be forced
•to lower its. charges at least 25 and
jierha|* ,i 0 |ier cent, liven then the

Then, two, if the town increases
(its equipment, it will have to in-
Icrease its debt. (
It the Virginia Electric & Power
( o. takes OVTI our plant, it will at
.once reduce the bonded debt of the
town $75,000. The company will
also furnish the town fr e power
to the amount of $5,000 per year,
according to the present estimated
value! !M,QOO for street lighting and
■ i.2,UQQ for water .pumping, Bunt
i this SS,OOO item should he subtract
• ed the J'l,ooo now received front the
* t i\yn of Kveretts, making a net
amount of $4,000 a year for 30 years,
or the equivalent of $120,000 added
to the $75,000 purchase price, mak
| in# a total for franchise and distri
bution system of $195,000.
The third alternative is to sell the
i light plant for SIOO,OOO and the wa
ter system for $25,000. There are
no details whatever as to whether

for the water system, which cost the
town $225,000. If the offer for the

[ When it comes to a disgraceful dis
