Th utilization of the water tup- |
ply in the important mining dis-1
tricts of the Yukon-Tsuaua region
is one of sue important eKaients in |
reducing the cost of mluing. The
water supply is rot o:il> utilized i - •
rcctly in placer mining but is a!-1
so of importance to ti.e lode-;
mining industry in furnishing a.
source of power. Duri „ the period (

in measuring the streams in the
various placer camps of the Yukon- i
Tauana r- -ion, notably in the Fair

these measurements have been

CHANGE IN ELECTRICAL SERVICE
lof the
HOME POWER COMPANY
a lie iu«.vesaed uemuud of our patrons for a day service iias
prompted tlie Honiu Power c- tupany to install a meter system
and a continuous service, wliicU will enable consumers to
list) electricity at tlieir pleJ-ijre.
In tlie past tliis company uas supplied only those REQUEST
LNU MKT lilts, tor which meter the consumer made a cash de
posit.
In all cities tlie meter system is used, aiid a cash deposit
is required by the company furnisliii.g same. Tlie deposit
ranges from $5.00 to $10.00, and m some towns in Alaska,
is us high as $15.00.
TUe Home Power company will not require a deposit oa me
ters, and no charge will be made at this time for the installa
tion of the same.
Nor will any change b® made in the present meter rates,
which are as follows:—
Minimum rate for one light, per month, $1.00; for two or
more lights, per month $2.00.
Kate per Kilowatt, 10 cents. A sliding scale oer Kilowatt
for large consumers is now under consideration.
It is not the intentiou of ilio Home Power company to in
crease tiio cost to the consumer, but to place all consumers
on a standard basis, so that each may be able to tuke advan
tage of the continuous system.
The Homa Power company further realizes, that during the
summer months the average home will not use 20 Kilowatt
hours for lighting purposes, which is the amount of the mini
mum charge, but with the continuous service the consumer
has the privilege of using electrical appliances at any hour
of the day or night, and can use such elc-etrical ap
pliances as Flat Irons, Toasters, percolators, Vacuum Clean
ers, &c. This will give the consumer the opportunity of using
up the full amount of the minimum charge.
The day service will be turned on about June 1st.
The Homa Power company will carry a full line of up to date
electrical home devices, all of which will be sold at a small per
centage abovo actual cost. ,}• '
Those having receipts for cash deposited with the company
for meters can have money refunded upon presentation of
tne same to the treasurer at our office, corner 4th and Broad
way.
