PEOPLE VOTE TO SELL CITY'S I
POWER AND LIGHTING PLANT I
WM
ggj
Vote Is Seventy-Two For and But One H
Against the Proposition Not
Much Interest Shown. H
Price Utxpnyers today voted U sell the city's municipal power H
and lighting plant, the vote bclrg a light one, but almost unanl- M
mous seventy-two to one a total of soventy-thrco votes being H
cast. Price Election District No. 10 had forty-six votes, forty- M
five for und ono against. District No. 17 polled eighteen votes, all M
for the snls, while thero were nine votes cast Ui the district south H
of the Denver and Rio Grnndo tracks, District No. 18, nnd nil for . M
the snle. r H
The council was to havn mut this evening to canvass tho vote of H
today's special election, but the meeting was this afternoon ad- H
journcd to next Monday afternoon, when the vote will be officially I H
gone over. At the same mectilng the matter of giving Utah Power H
nnd Light company a fifty-year franchise will be also considered. l H
It may bo that the franchise will run for but ten years. j H
This afternoon a message came from a representative at Salt ' H
Lake City of Utah Power and Light company otntlrig thnt it would M
1)3 impossible for r.nyono from that company to be hero this oven- H
lug, hence the adjournment of the proposed cCuncll meeting. The i H
next movo of the council H to xcelve tho appmlAcmcnt of tho ; H
plant and in duo course offer it for sale. This may bo as n whole M
o" it may lc ssirrcgatcd. f H
Mayor Woolton says there may bo n H'cgrcgatlon as there are f H
some bidders in eight Cor certain portions of ihe property, and it H
might be that more could be reallza'l In this way. This will be t H
determined by thn council, however. If Utah Power and Light i H
-ompany takes over tho property, as now acorns most likely, that H
company will establish rut offico nt Price and later put in a stock H
' electrical goods, similar to branch houne nt Provo nnd c'sc- 1 H
where. I 'H
Utah power and Light's coming means it reduction in house- H
hold, business and ower rfjtKll round. Tlicso are regulated by H
the state utilities cominiailon. "K, ! H

coal mining and otherwise, up nnd down the Price river nnd Its M
tributaries will be represented nt the mooting at City Hall In Price . M
next Monday to discuss totter water conditions. Tho meeting l H

the invitation sent out by Mayor Wootton and the city council of M
Price have been received. Hero is thnt of A. II. Cowic. vico presl- H
dent and general manager of Utah Fuel company, which shows h (j H
most friendly feeling and Is in the samo good spirit as most of ft H
them. He says: h H
"Many thanks for your letter of recent date, enclosing excerpt I IB
of minutes of proceedings of city council of Price on July 2, 1018. I HJ
The cordial invitation requesting representation of the various in- y M
torcsted parties evidences a v6ry commcndnblo spirit on the part HJ
of thu good K'oplo of Price, and cither myself or a representative 1 H
will gladly be present nt the meeting next Monday. Yours very 1 H
truly, A. II. Cowic." I M
At Helper last Thursday evening there was a meeting of the I
, mayor and city council, together with citizens, when tho water ' H H
. situation as applying to residents there and all users up and down H
, the river was discussed at length nnd from various angles. Helper WM
l will be represented nt tho meeting Monday next, intent on a purer fl
, water supply. Mayor Wootton nnd othcrH from Price were at tho H
Helper meeting. H

Senator William II. King has again taken up with tho nntionnl H
reclnmntion "service the mntter of the Pleasant Valley reservoir H
