NEPHI SIXTEEEN PAYSON SIX liie high pressure pipe line which connects the Electric Light Canal with the City Power Plant broke at a point where it is Monday laid underneath the Sanpete Valley The cause of the Railroad track. break was due to the settling of the track on the pipe line which caused the wooden pipe to become impaired and unable to withstand the weight of the engine and train passing over it. About 12 feet of the pipe had to be taken out and as it was impossible to obtain this size pipe in the state it was necessary to order it On account of from San Francisco. thiB break the plant was shut down Monday and Tuesday and the city was thrown into darkness for two nights. Tuesday morning Mr. Ernest of the Big Anderson, manager Springs Electric Company of Fountain Green together with a couple of directors of that company met with the Mayor and City Council and went over the situation with them. The outcome of this meeting resulted in the Big Springs Company being able to furnish this city with enough power to carry the ordinary day load with the exception of the mills, and also to furnish enough power for lighting the residences and picture show. In this connection Mr. Anderson of the Big Springs Company suggests that the people be as economical in the use of the light at night as possible in order that there will be enough power for the needs of the city. It is very fortunate that the city had the present contract with the alBig Springs Company and were with connection for ready wired up their plant. In about another month the new plant at Fountain Green will be completed after which this company will be able to take cartf of this city in any emergency. It wil probably be two weeks or more before the present damage to the local plant is repaired.
