The auditing and purchasing committee of the board of supervisors objected.

W. Schroeder will sub- nit to the common council Monday evening, the amendment to the charter will also make provision so electric light de- paitment can extend its lines outside the city, over and above the 25 per cent of capacity which the state statutes permit.

The present charter does not permit the erection of power lines outside the city and on the other hSnd it does not give the authority to the electric light commission to erect lines outside the city. The state statute does, however, and so it was thought best to include in the amendment to the charter I the express provision that the commission may erect such lines outside the city limits and furnisii power therefore, not in excess of 25 per cent of the total capacity of the municipal plant, as provided by state law. It is merely a technicality but probably a necessary provision due to the fact that the city is now' furnishing power to Ifnes outside the city, which were built hy private parties originally and since taken over by the city in some cases and in others still privately owned. With this provision in the charter there woulcf be nothing to hinder the pf power lines by the city; instead qf by private individuals, That the KROGER SPECIAL THURSDAY 21b.
