The position. -hr said, • was that the
present towu power plant was worn
out. The question simeoeted down to
this -"How many of us are willing 10
expend considerable to repair the
plant �' For many years, he claimed,
the present plant had riot beeu of
sufficient capacity to supply the wants
of the town. If 7110 horsepower of
Niagara power at 237 were contracted
for it would not be necessary to
patch up the old plant. The wisest
thingto do, be bad always thought
was to install Hydra -electric power.
Mr. lane said further that be believed
that the publicity ecbewe which had
been launched by the county would
be .' rengtbened if Hydro elects iv
power were in use in every munici-
palit y.
Or. Holmes in his opening remarks
endeavored to show the similarity be-
tween the movement f r highway
improvement inaugurate.: by the Lib-
eria Government of (Intro iu and the
Hydro -electric- power scheme which
had „been developed by the present
Conservative Government of Ontario.
The county of Huron had lost money
by not going in with the road improve-
ment scheme. "There are many here
tonight," declared the Doctor, "nho
will live to see the day when Hydr
electric power will be in nee in every
municipality in Western Ontario." It
is the aim of the Power Commission,
continued the speaker, to finance and
supply to the municipalities of this
Province power at cost. Power will
be developed wherever the munici-
palities will be benefited, and hydro-
electric power is cheaper tbun
that which can he developed in any
other way. That in itself was
sufficient, in his opinion. That
Windsor wag negotiating for power et
$Mi mss pointed out as another remittal
why Godertch should look favorably
upon the Hydro proposition. The
llsttland Raver would be developed sa
1000 as the10 WAS a demand t„r it.
but in the meantime the Doctor's
advice was -Buckle up at once with
Niagara.' to clueing he deplored the
fact that the town was willin1 to
negotiate with then of whom little
was known and yet they would doubt
the Government.
J. Elgin Tom said be could agree
heartily with what bad `wen already
said regarding the Hydro -electric
power question. He could vote for it
as the west thing for the town. He
