FOUR MORE THINGs TO KNOW
There are at least four paint* on
which the Skagwav city council should
be advised fully before It concludes a
contract to lease or purchase the watet
and light plants of the Northwest Light
& Power Company. If necessary It
should have expert advice on them.
These may be stated this way:
What kind of a title can the North
west Light A Power Company give to
the properties which it controls?
What will it cost to put its plants in
oondltion to give the people an adequate
water supply and a trood water and
light servlne for 12 months in the year?
What are the company's income and
operating expense'.'
What other sources of water supply
are there available? What would be the
eoet of their development and operation?
Could they be secured in such a way
that all the elty's interests would be
safe, certain and without complications
of a disadvantageous character?
Until all of these questions are
answerable the water proposition is not
on a business basis.
Considering thai Skagway's baseball
teac. has had less practice than that of
either Whiteburse or Juneau the show
ing made tn Saturday's anc Sunday's
g aires was eminently satisfactory.
Whitehorae is showing baseball form
that is a reminder of those old days of
a few years ago.
Juneau is the town that began the
practice of importing baseball players.
The cup was never In danger.
