Light the Town. Borough urged to accept gas street lamps
The gas company offers to furnish lamp posts and supply gas for one thousand dollars annually, with borough ownership after five years. Assessed valuation is 1,500,600, yielding a public gas tax of 67 cents per thousand. Lighted streets protect pedestrians, aid police, and deter highwaymen, making the proposal advantageous and fiscally modest.
