There has been, so far, very little ob: ection taken to the general question f management by commissioners, bu• it has been urged that eu soon after t. beginning of the year the municipal equilibrium should nos have been Menu bee. In this objeo• tion we see very 1i tie force, for if the commission is likely to give better sans. Iaotlon let no have it as :loon as possible.

The decla ation taken by oom- miasionere was m ch stronger than that of councillors; th commissioner% kept separate books of a000nnt, furnished a yearly statement of all the affatrs in their charge, and there was no salary attaohed to the po ition; moreover, the council could at• any time, if they thought things were not going right, bring in a by -la • , and with the assent of the eleotors, displace the commission= ere and assume control of the plant themselyee.

Blandon Id followed with a very oompreben•ive review of the management of , e plant einoe it was purchased by the own over four years ago. It was a col business proposition; the money had b: :n invested, and it was the duty of the citizens now to take steps that wontbring the very best results. The do tor presented a tabulat. ed statement ehwing the receipts and expenditure for eaoh of the four yearn. The grand total eoeipts were $33,946.16° with an expeniture of $32,229.65, of whioh nearly $r 000 was tor permanent improvements t the plant. The speaker emphasized the importance of having the manageme•6 in good hands; as commissioners ere elected directly by the people, it s probab.e that better men would be s: oared, and consequently more efficient work done. Besides, there would be • ore permanency to the body who ma ages the plant. Then there mast be : competent man at the head of the ' .rks, who would have authority to en age and dismiss men; and there shout • be only one " boss." In regard to the g neral question of light ing, the doctor boughs the town paid too low a rate or the street lights ; a comparison of leven towne, mostly in Western Ontar o, showed the average rate to be $70 whereas the rate in Wingham is on y $45 In regard to the improvements t .be made, it would not be advisable to issue debentures at the present time; better to borrow the money. Dr, aodonald's address was, well prepared, nd showed that a con-' siderable time ad been spent in getting facts and figure in regard to the matter.
