[Kenneth Marcy]

*First electrical power to Moscow, Idaho*

Here is a one-paragraph news item recovered from the archives of the 
Internet:


 From the third column on page 18 of Western Electrician, dated July 2, 
1904:


The Moscow Electric Light and Power Company of Moscow, Idaho, has 
secured a 10-year contract

from the City of Genesee for lighting the streets and pumping the city 
water, and will put in a substation in that town,

taking the current from the new transmission lines being run to Moscow 
by the Lewiston Water Power Company.

It is expected that the line will be complete to Genesee before 
September 1^st and to Moscow October 1^st .

Power is being transmitted at 22,000 volts over a 60-mile line from 
Asotin, Wash.
