City electric lighting plan questioned amid competition
The proposal to electrify the city faces criticism for favoring Brush Electric Lighting and denying Jenway from bidding. Critics warn it risks higher costs, incomplete coverage, and limited practical benefit while other electric firms and markets could provide better prices. The piece also notes diverse local items from political editorials to crime and public notices.
