LMUD Presents: This Day in Susanville History – November 16, 1918

Looking down Main Street from the Elk’s Lodge around 1920.

Electric Company to Install Auxiliary
November 16, 1918


The Lassen Electric company is making preparations to place in commission the engine at the old ice plant just above the cemetery to help take care of the overload at certain times of the day.

At the present time the plant is loaded to capacity and for several hours in the evening when the use of the current is the greatest there is not sufficient juice to give satisfactory service.

Another auxiliary engine at the Lassen Auto company may be connected up to help out.

These arrangements are for the purpose of getting through the coming winter as the company expects to connect up with the Great Western Power company next spring.
