Pieces or Tapestry Brussels, LET OS HAVE TRUE REFORM, THE BOROUGH SHOULD OWN A LIGHT PLANT. WHITE HAVEN HAS ITS OWN And Public and Private Blootrio Lights are Supplied at Almost a Nominal Figuro Stroet Paving. HE STATEMENT by ono of our Coun cilmon that the bor ough is in a position to pay off every cent of its indebtedness is gratifying as It is sur prising. We hope the statement is back od by facts.for if it is there is no reason why tho streets should not be paved and the borough may just as well havo Its own olot trio illuminating plant. For tho benefit of our Councllmcn and taxpayers wo rofor to an article just pub. lisbed in tho Frooland Progress. It says that "White Haven has the cheapest illumination of any town in the state. The streets are lighted by 2,000-candle power electric lights and tho total cost less than $000 per year. The private resi dences, too, aro illuminated at a compara tively trifling cost 20 cents per month for each 16-candlo powor incandescent light Tho low rate is duo to tho borough own ing tho plant and the fact that the dyna mics are propelled by water from the Lehigh river, which power tho borough enjoys without cost. Now if our pooplo should decide to havo thoir own water works they would be the samo position as White Uaven is for motor power, but if the water works do not materialize we havo culm banks and other sourcos from which cheap luol bo secured in abundance. Now is time for reform all around. Ou Councilmen, who say tho borough is in position to free itself of debt, should now bo a position to givo the poor pooplo town employment by deciding to - per manently Improve tho striets by paving. This work, coupled with tho contomplated work on tho borough wator works, would make Shenandoah a veritable bee-hive. Lot tho Councilmen bo honest in thoir roform doclarations. THE LAKESIDE FESTIVAL.
