THE GAS FRAN(3HISE.
The Signal believes that the people
should have at direct voile in the
granting of ft'aurhiser extending over
*term of years, sod in this belief it
dissents from the aetiuo of the town
council in granting* frenchfw• to the
gal company for twenty years with•
out auhwittiog the matter to vote of
the people.
There is little doubt that the grant-
ing of the franchise would have (leen
approved by a majority of the tete-
payers ; bit there are those among
the ratepayers who would give n..
such franchise without o.curing tonne'
tingible return to the town in consid-
eration of the privilege thus granted.
Tlwre are others who object in tato to
the grontiug of franebiaes to pt•ivnte
corporation... (';Baena holding these
and other shades of opinion should'
have nn opportunity of measuring
their strength on a question .14 this
kind whenever it ramie. up. The
granting of thin franchise without a
vote of the people ms)- easily at wane
future time be taken ass precedent
for the granting of i franrhire of an
entirely objectionable mil ire without
ronsolting theratepayer•a, and the rule
should be eatabIidh.d and maintained
that in all motto -EN 4)t this Lind the
people of the town Ann be given an
upporlunity for the direct expressi*.n
of their opinion.
Having granted a eondilinual frim
tibias. if will he the duly ill the coinl•il
to wee tht the terms acettnipauying it
are stitch es will amply and surely oath -
guard the interests of the town
throughout the duration of the fran-
chise.
