Ballard Forfeits Franchise Bond After Settlement
The city of Ballard forfeited H. G. Starkey’s $2,500 cash bond after the sixty day completion limit for an electric power and light plant failed. Starkey’s backers failed to secure California capital, and the costly franchise fight ended with the city treasury receiving the forfeited funds. Meanwhile the Ballard Elke steamer Fairhaven carries excursionists to the Tulalip reservation.
