City faces water plant sale to Western Public Service Co
A long analysis argues the Sidney water, light, and heat system should be sold to Western Public Service Co for 200,000 and a rate cut. It details net earnings, city expenses, and possible tax relief, claiming the city could gain 155,000 in treasury and lower taxes if the sale proceeds. The piece critiques current charges, urges business judgment, and warns a non sale could raise rates to cover bonded debt and obsolete machinery.
