A COMPLAINT
AND A REMEDY
One of the arguments advanced for
the purchase of the Northwest Light &
Power Company plants Is that there is
insufficient pressure for Qre protection
purposes from the present source of
sappy. Id answer to this It is urged
the complaint is too easily remedied to
warrant purchase of a #25,000 plant,
"unslgbt and unseen." It is contended
that the erection of another reservoir
higher up on the mountainside would
give all the pressure required and the
coat would be relatively insignificant.
CHICAGO CHRONICLE

nally a Democratic paper but .became

became evident that Biyan was recog
nized as the Democratic leader.
