IMMO
PUBLIC MEETING.
Preposod Foundry Discussed by Messrs.
Oalt and Bullock aria the Ratepayers.
The public meeting held in the Town
Hall on Wednesday evening was largely
attended by the ratepayers. Mayor
Clegg called the meeting to order and told
the audience the reason he had called
ahem together and said the first business
`would be the election of a chairman.
On motion of Dr. Macdonald and
'Councillor McKenzie, the Mayor was
voted to the chair.
Mr. Clegg said he was pleased to
'occupy the position. Wingham had
aided ninny industries in the past and all
would agree that the money was well
spent. We had received ample return
both directly. and indirectly. Town had
now been paid back dollar for dollar,
' except $ 8,000 and parties owing that
aiilotiut would pay it back if council
would give them a reasonable rebate.
This was a new departure. He had
thought for years that Wingham should
have something in the foundry line'; The
,gentlemen. Messrs. Galt and Bullock
were not bonus hunters as the council
had taken the first steps by placing
advertisements in the daily papers. The
agreement had been signed by these
gentlemen and by Mayor and Treasurer
and it could go no further until the rate-
payers gave.their verdict. He felt sure
the ratepayers of Wingham knewa good
bargain and would vote accordingly.
The reason Wingham was in the fore-
front was that its citizens. were pro-
gressive. The Mayor then read the
agreement between town and. Messrs.
Galt and Bullock. The Mayor went on
to show that the $17,000 loan would be
paid back in $1150 payments for 14years
and $:000 for 15th year, payments to
commence at end of 1901. Tho town's
total assessment was $567,614 and a, levy
necessary to pay interest on loan would
amount to $378.78 or tib cents on every
$1000 assessment, not to say anything of
the benefits to be derived from the new
enterprise. The new firm would pay at
least $100 per year in school takes. This
Lasts a
' Lifetime.

The motion was Parried unanimously
and the meeting brought to a close.
Dr. Macdonald said all ratepayers
should he interested in a matter, of this
kind. Wiugllam was the very best ti:wn
west of Toronto. The town had never
yet 'made a inistake in assisting
iudastries. Moneys loaned had brought
back good returns. He was well pleas-
ed with the explanatious. He was
satisfied thattbere would not be 10 rate-
payers who ' would come out and de-
liberately vote'against the by-law . after
hearing the . explanations. Every
person iu town would be benefitted by
the new industry. When it was to cost
only bOc on every $1,000 assessment
shoald be sufficient argument for any
property holder. Average the wages at
$1.25 per day,a low average,for each man.
would make $85,000 per year paid out
in wages by tile new industry. • The
money would 'be brought into the town.
froiu all quarters. • Furniture maul-
.from
of town sending, furniture' to
all quarters and bringing the stoney to
Wingham. The Dr. said, he:was person-
ally acquainted with Mr. Galt and he
was a man he could recommend to the
citizens of Wingham. Ho was 'not
personally acquainted with Mr.. Bullock,
bathed heard of him and Was satisfied
they were both good melt. It would be
wisdom on the part of the ratepayers to
make Wingham more progressive and
have it the best town in 'Western
•Canada:.
Councillor McKenzie eves in favor of
the by-law. He told of the time the'by-
law was defeated when Fraser & Gillies
wanted to locale in Wingham. He
always felt that Wiughani needed an
industry of this ]rind. It was he • who
ask the council to put advts in the daily
press offering inducerneits to nianufai,c-
turesto locate here. At the enol of two
or three years stock in this establishment
would likely bo worth. $1.50 ,on the $
The town bad made a success of, every-
thing they had yet undertaken.
Jas. A. Cline was in favor of by-law.
He pointed out that during the past year
$19,000 had been paid out in wages by
the Union furniture Co., and that dur-
ing the last five years $93,000 had been
paid out in wages by this company. The
hew industry would be a benefit to
every person in town. The four factor-
ies aided by the town bad this year paid
over $1,000 taxes.
Thos. Bell said he was in favor of the
by-law and would do all he could to
help carry it.
