prised tire other eveltirrg 21'114.12 taking;
a walk on some of our bash streets to
find at the corner of Gilley nod Carl-
ing- streets an old time coal oil street
lamp suspended from the limb of one
of the beautiful shade trees thatadol'n
our streets. On making inquiry from
some of our neighboring rate payers
•2s to the cause of this i was informed
that the lamp had been erected for the
purpose of locating the whereabouts
of our Electric lights. We would ask,
is this as it shoulel be? Our ratepayers
)?sty the enormous :Mtn of over *2900.0(1

have to resort to the old time method
of lighting the streets by oil reflects
very badly on the xnarlag'ers of the
