M-tf To meet there dttoentulea the town will have to raise the *um of $2.276.141 each year for thirty veers. This will mean another addition to the already large tax bills of Ooderich ratepayers, and. as we shall show further on, the auw named by no means represents the full amount of extra taxation' which the propo.ition involve'. On the other .ride of the a�count, what does the town get out of the scheme? It gets a plant to provide electric lighting at about the name rate as Goderich consumers now pay, and electric power at a price which puts Goderich absolutely out of the race as a manufacturing centre. And to secure these rather doubtful benefits the tcwn will have LO sign a contract which for thirty years will stand in the way of any cheap power develop- ment in this district. t s $ of the aid hereinafter mrnoon . s s- li-h and eounue.,oe and continue to operate There is one excuse -and that a very upon the said land:. namely, lot uunnTwrt due oo pr one -for the submitting of such the sold town of Goderibh. the proposed try for the ni inufacture and sale of toilet se- a proposition to the ratepayers of evidence that the limit is wnuewhere east of Goderich. and :a good distance east.

An elaborate plan of street lighting ie presented, but, nothing 1- -.rd ss to what 1t will cost the tuwt,. in course we can have as many lights as we like if we are willing to pay for them. It is safe to say that,the town will have to pay a good round sum to the Commission for the additional street 'labia on the proposed system. This will be another burden for the already weary taxpayer•. If the man who uses electric light in his residence imagines that' under the new system his Tight will he cheaper he is probably in Zine for a disap- poiotwent.

In this con- nection it must be reicemb.-red that Gude,'ch. with its own electric plant. has always had a rate that compared favorably with those of other Ontario towns and cities and that was consid- erably- lower than the rates Rhee the electric light plant was under pi ivate ownership.
