Evening Republican, Volume 16, Number 310, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 31 December 1912 — City Will Go Out of House Wiring Business. [ARTICLE]

City Will Go Out of House Wiring Business.

The pity of Rensselaer has decided that, ho far as possible, it will go out of the private light wiring and electrical supply business. For many years there was no private wiring contractor in Rensselaer but since the meter installation and the employment of various electrical devices in the homes that followed the day current, the wiring and supply business has greatly increased. K. T. Rhoades & Co. have taken over the city’s wiring contracts and some of the city supplies and all havmg work to do will be referred to that firm. The city will, of course, continue to do outside wiring and will from necessity have to take care of some repair Work.
