The
Salt Industry in Goderich
TO THE RATEPAYERS OF GODERICH
It is to a former Goderich citizen, Mr. Samuel Platt. that
the honor is due of being the pioneer in the Salt industry of
Canada. It was in Godetich that Sak was first discovered•
Goderich at one time. 1870, was the head of the Salt
trade. At that time there were over 14 different works
in full operation, giving employment to a large number,
and bringing much trade to the town. THOSE WERE
THE DAYS OF GODERICH'S PROSPERITY.
The N. A. C. Co. have been making Sak in Gode-
rich for 35 years. and during that time have never received
assistance from the town. We are now making an effort
to make Goderich once more an important Salt point.
We propose. at a large expense. to erect an up-to-date
plant that will produce, at a minimum. 500 barrels of
Salt per day; and with a maximum capacity of 1000 bar-
rels per day, necessitating the employment of between 40
and 60 hands. Our Salt has a reputation second to none.
We do NOT ask for a free site. We do NOT ask for
a large cash bonus. We do NOT ask the town to im-
peril its credit by guaranteeing our bonds. But the ad-
vantages we have named can be yours by the granting us
exemption from taxation (except school taxes). and 12 elec-
tric horsepower for 10 years. Read the Bylaw published
in the local preest and vote for it on the 22nd inst.
l i Yours tespectfully.
