More than fAfty signatures were secured to the retition during the first few hours of its circulation. Nearly al] the busi- Less men on the street are among the signers, the great majority of whom are also taxpayers. At the present time the street light service is suspended after midnigh Advocates of the all-night service s they would, rather have the street lights in use from midnight *o day- light than they would to see half & dozen officers on duty. The signers of the petition reside in all_the sections of Danielson. Just what the cost of the additional service would be has not heen definite- Iv_determined. In any event, it is not believed the rate will be o ex- cessive as to prohibit the adoption of ike plan which would also prove very convenient for the hotels, = business baildings and dwellings now equipped with electric lights, which cannot be used after the power is shut off at midnight. k TO FORT WRIGHT.
