M. Lerou and shows tnat this municipally owned lighting vlant has had the best year In is history in the 12 months up to the first of last May. The gross income for the 12 months was $498,810.41, and the net profit was $51,095.98. This was after charging off $33,208 for depreciation. This deprecia- tion charge is a percentage on the equity i the plant, not on its book value. Thers was spent in maintenance in the vear the sum of $41,000, so that practically all the net profit went into malatenance. The figures of the rasi vear, compared with the figures of 1995, when the city took over the plaii. Which at thai *ime was doing a total business of $97,800, show that the city is now doing over five ' times the amount of business the plant did then. At that time it was doing a business of §97,800 on a bonded indebted- ness of $627,000. In the past year there have been added 398 new electricity customers and 58 new zas customers, a total of 456. As not over 55 per cent. of the houses in the city are at present wired for electricity, it is apparent how great a fleld there is for the local plant In obtaining new custom- ers as the number of userr of electricity increases and when new residences are built. Although new building has been almost at a standstill in the city in the past year, thers is a substantial increase in the number of new customers shown. It has been arranged with the gas and electric commissioners that the mayer is to have monthly reports in the future on the business of the municipal lighting plant.
