A NEW ENGINEER
FROM PAWHUSKA
Texas county has been without a
regular engineer for several months,
the vacancy just being filled last
week by the County Commissioners.
The new officer is Mr. E. iL. Wheeler,
who comes from Pawhuska, Okla. Mr.
Wheeler called at the Herald office
last week, and was such a youthful
and happy looking individual that we
r-ould not refrain from questioning
him about his age He cheerfully
gave it as twenty-four years. This
brought forth the further informa-
tion that he has had four years of
practical experience in his work since
graduating from the University of
Michigan, which is recognized as one
of the greatest technical schools in
the country. The fact that Mr.
Wheeler grad-ated from the Paw-
huska High School in his fourteenth
year, jind worked to pay. his way thru
college certainly speaks volumes in
his behalf.

count of technicalities in the oublica-

if he could possibly helo it, and so for-
warded the printed notices to the At-
toreny General for criticism this time.
He is in receipt of the following word
from Randell S. Cobb, Assistant At-
torney General, whose business it is
to pass on all such matters:
"I am in receipt of you letter of
the 3rd instant relative to ordinances
and election proclamations relative to
proposed park, water and light bond
issues. I have made an examination
of the same, and nm of the opinion
that they are correct."
JOHN O'LOUGHLIN IS
NOW A BENEDICT
Johnny O'Loughlin Jr. received a
telegram Wednesday from his mother
in San Monica, California, stating
that "Uncle John" had just arrived
■ft*om rtnee«sto«'n, Ireland, with
•"'Aunt Kate." Mr. O'Loughlin went
to the Emerald Isle several months
ago. presumably on a visit to his aged
mother, but it seems that he also had
othet business in the land of the h«ro
;i«d shamrock. We wish Mr. and Mrs.
O'Loughlin all kinds of hannines#
and prosperity, and will expect them

Mrs. O'Loughlin will learn, how* large

value of the old plant, and the cost
of a new plant of similar capacity.
Thi^ week we are printing these estl
mates in full, and in addition Mr. Kil-
burn has furnished us an estimate of
the probable earnings of the plant
outlined in the first estimate, "or
which the bond election on the 28th
inst. has been called'. Mr. Kilburn's
estimates are so complete that we feel
any comment; on our part would be
out of place. The Herald hopes that
every citizen of Guymon will study
these estimates, and satisfy themsel-
ves that they aie reasonable and conr
servative. Mr. Kilburn ranks as one
of the leading engineers of the west,
and has planned and superintended
the installation of many municipal im-
provements in Kansas and the South-
west. His company has planned and
supervised the improvements at Lib-
eral, Garden City, Dodgfe City, and
numerous other towns, the officers of
which speak in the highest terms of
their services.

District Judee Sutton, <?ourt Stenr

Gilson,- Hughes and Breslin returned
Tuesday from Boise City, where they
went last Sunday to be nresent at the
convening of District Court Monday.
Judge Sutton found the conditions
hardly appropriate for the continua-
tion of the Court after Monday, the
burning of the Cimarron County
Court House having left no room in
the town adequate for the purpose,
and the weather conditions\ also be-
ing unfavorable. However, a num-
ber of cases were disposed of on Mon-
day. Both of the murder cases on
their docket were given a chance of
venue, to Texas county, and will be
heard here at the May term of Court,
along with some other criminal cases.

December 1, 1920.
Hon. Mayor and Council, Guymon,
Oklahoma.
Gentlemen:
Complying with our agreement with
you to make estimate for the nec-
essary additions and betterments to
be added to the existing light . and
water plant as now owned by the Guy-
mon Electi*ic Light Co.. to make the
plant a suitable operating plant for
the city of Guymon. <
\V> are handing you herewith at?
tached three estimates as foMows: Es-
timate No. 1 gives the amount of bonds
necessary to vote in order to buy.the
nresent plant at $35,000.00 and add to
it iri such a manner that the service
will be reliable and everyone able to
eret lipht and water, and have fire pro-
tection.
Estimate No. 2' gives the present
valuation of such parts of the old
light and water I plant 'as the' city
would use in v the construction of a
suitable jilant.
'Estimate No. 3 gives the estimated
cost of an entirely new plant, and in-
cludes all items except light and water
meters, and 'light and water service
line's which it is assumed "would be
paid for by the consumer of light and
water.
Yours truly,
BUCKEL ENGINEERING CO.
By F. JI. KILBURN.
Katlinatr >o. J.
In this estimate it Is considered that
the city of Guymon will' purchase the
present water and light plant - a« is
now *dwne<V fry 'the "Guymon Electric
Light und, Power* Co., and make' such
additions and improvements as here-
after nofed.
The fallowing ectimate considers the
additions of two Semi-Diesel engiiles
direct connected to generators, and
the rebuilding and repair of the 100
horse power engine that is now in
place at the plant. The new engines
to be, one 150 horse power engine di-
rect connected to a 125 K. V. A. gene-
rator, and one 100 horse power engine
direct connected to a 75 K. V. A gene-
rator. The two new engines combined
with the old engine Will give a total of
350 horse power.
The new 150 horse pow^r engine
will give ample power to carry the
night load, and the new 100 horse
power engine can carry the day load.
Complete breakdown service will be
nrovided by operating the two 100
horse power engines together In case
the larger engine was out of order.
A five panel switch board is provided
so that all three engines can be opera-
ted in paralel. or a combination of any
two of them.
Provision is made in the estimate
for the installation of two deep well
double acting pumps, to pump water
into the ."tandpipe, the combination ca-
pacity of these pumps to be 324,000
r-jiHons of water per day of 24 hours.
The pole lines and water mains to
be extended so that all business and
residence houses can be furnished
with light and water and have fire pro-
tection. A fire pump is included so
that a pressure of seventy pounds pan
be manitained on the water mains In
case, of Are.

cost of the improvements and additions
as heretofore mentioned:

The following estimate of the pres-
ent valuation of the Guymon Elec-
tric Light and Power Company's wa-
ter and light plant in the city of Guy-
mon, takes into account only suoh
parts of the Company's property as
can be made use of by the city, in
rnse they buy the old plant, and re-
build and make additions as shown
in estimate number one.
Your attention is called to the fact
that no valuation is placed on trte
water mains of less than four inched
in diameter, as all water mains less
than four inches are small pipes rang-
ing in size from three-quarters inch
pipe to one and one-half inch pipe,
the smaller sizes predominating. A
value is given to the water service
lines from street mains to property.
In ^determining values, where unit
prices are used a depreciation of at
least twenty-five per cent is consider-
ed, as a minimum, and ranging to a
depreciation of fifty per cent in some
cases. .
The unit prices used are the prices
which would have to be paid for new-
material at the present time. You
will also note that when the valuations
made, as outlined above, is arrived at,
a discount of twenty per cent is taken
to arrive at the /I'eal tfalue of the va-
rious materials in place, • as they ex-
ist today.

Amount to be raised
by taxation 576.00
Attention is called to the fact that
only an increase of 33 1-8. per cpnt is
estimated in earning powers. It
would hardly be safe to figure that
the earning power would increase
more than this the first year, but
considering the opportunity to build
up a day motor load, which load could
easily amount to 160 horse power,
and the fact that the more general
use of electrical accessories would
grow, when reliable electrical service
was assured and that the income "rom
the sale of water would greatly in-
crease with a better supply and dis
tribution, it is perfectly reasonable to
say that the eross income would in-
crease to $3000 per month in 3 years,
which would eliminate afty deficit.
The burden to the tax payer, consider-
ing the valuation of $1,080,000.00,
a 7 mill tax the first two or three
years, after which time the plant
would be self sustaining.
The above estimate is based on the
assumption that the sinking fund and
depreciation fund would be set aside
each year, so that at the end of the
life of the bonds the original invest-
ment would be paid out and the money
provided for renewals.
