PERRIN & CO, LTD., LONDON, NTT, Vote For The Bylaw.. On Saturday next, August the propertyowners of thevilLageofExeter will be asked to record their votes for or against the 13y -Law, to loan the Ex- eter Canning and Preserving Company $10,000 to assist them in their opera- tions. Probably no more important event has ever been placed before the people of Exeter for their considera- tion, It is a matter that every voter should consider most seriously; not from a narrow, selfish or indifferent standpoint, but from the standpoint of your duty as a citizen and in accord- ante with the importance that the ne- cessity of the case demands. On it, to our atind, depends to a greater or less- er extent the future prosperity and welfare of the village, for should this By -Law be defeated there is not the slightest doubt bat what it would dis- courage and retwd any future attempt at procuring industries for the town,. as well as letting out of your grasp this excellent and desirable institution for a inere bagatelle compared with the valuable benefits to be derived both for the town and surrounding country. We have a pretty little town situated as it is in one of the richest agricultural districts in the Province of Ontario and it should be the desire and aim of every citizen who has the. town's welfare at heart to see that her, position is raised to that standard itso deservedly merits and prevent it from drifting into astate of retrogression and recedence.' The town should, there- fore, avail itself . of every reasonable opportunity that offers to keep pace with the tunes and in maintaining -its business-prestage. The posed in- dnstry is along that line, and we con- sider it deserves the heartiest support of every citizen. It bas been the gen- eral cry for years that the town needs factories. In response to the till men have taken the matter up and now ask your assistance. Can you afford to turn them down? We say no. They are men well-known to everybody - tried and true -are progressive and energetic audlhaving the interests of the town and community at heart they are determined with your assistance to push the proposed industry to a suc- cessful issue that will be a general ben- efit to all. In the first place valuable buildings are to be erected and equip- ped with the most modern machinery at an estimated cost of $12.000 to $15,- 000; in the second place a large num- ber of hands will be employed as well. as consuming the products of hund- reds of acres of land in the surround- ing country, and the marketing and handling of all this produce from the time the seed is put in the ground un- til'the-eanned goods are shipped from the factory will bring money to many pockets and the most favorable fea- ture of it is, practically every dollar expended by this concern is left in Ex- eter. It. is essentially a "home" indus- try. The output of the factory is ar- ticles of every -day consumption and for which there is an unlimited de- mand not only in Ontario, but in the great Northwest and other provinces. The tharket isracticall all outside of -the town hence the money realized for it will come from outside and the greater part left and spent in our midst thus benefitting all. There can be no two opinions as to the benefits and there shonld be no two views as to which way to vote. Let us new see what it requires to secure this factory. The amount of the loan asked for is $10,000 for fifteen years, payable habit in ten annnal instalments of $1000 a year after the sixth year; the town to hold as security a first mortgage on the entire buildings, machinery and capital of about $20,000. • Surely no fault can be found in this direction. Then to provide for the sinking fund the town would have to raise $931.10 annually. But to offset this the Com- pany has to pay back after the sixth year $1000 a year; school taxes on their full investment, together with a fixed assessment of $5,000 for ten years. These two combined returns would amount to at least $150 a year, thus waking the net cost to the town of only $781.10 per year, for the first six years, then the town would receive for succeeding ten years $1000 per year,or in other words about $220 a year more than they pay out. These being the facts we ask every property owner how we can possibly afford to let this opportunity pass without taking ad- vantage of it. The law governing the voting on such by-laws requires that at least two-thirds of the available votes must be cast for the by-law to carry it. You will then see howvery necessary it is that you should record your vote in favor of the By -Law, and thus you will help the town, help the community, help your fellow man and help yourself.

CLINTON Business CoIIege (Affiliated with Wingham business College) OPENS SEPTETV.I]3ER 3rd in McKay Block. Three Courses-- - Preparatory, Shorthand .and Type writing, Commercial. GEO. SPOTTON, Prin. Vote For The By -Law. To the property owners of the Village of Exeter. Ladies and Gentlemen:• -- Un. August 4th you will have an op- portunity of casting your vote for or against a By -Law, which is being is- sued for the purpose of loaning the sum of $10,000 to a Company, to be know a as the Exeter Canning and Pre- serving Company, Limited, to be used by the Oompany as working capital, after the factory has been built and fully equipped. with all the most mod- ern machinery, ata cost of not less than $12,000. As my business duties will not prenrit me to call on you and make full explanations of the great advantages that the town as a whole will derive, I take this opportunity of placing, before you a few facts concern- ing sortie of those advantages. (1) The most of you are aware that our town is decreasing in population every year and if something is not done to stop the flow; Exeter will only have a population of ten to twelve hundred in five years time. (2) By carrying this By -Law we will assist iii starting an industry that will 'employ a large number of men, women, boys a;iid girls and by giving our young peepkemployment at home we keep 'oily"money in town and it all tends to " iromote prosperity. (3) The following gentlemen are the Directors of the Company: Jos. Snell, Manager of the Sovereign Bank, Pres- ident; R. G. Seldon, Farmer, Vice - President; J. G. Jones, General Mer chant, Sec'y-Treas.; J. Hunter; O. H. Sanders, W. D. Sanders, A. Marchand, Thos. Harvey and S. Martin, Directors. The above gentlemen are all men of good business ability and having made. a success of their own business are determined if the By -Law carries to make a success of the canning indus- try,- which means much for Exeter. (4) Vote for the By -Law and make a home market for all the pioducts,in- stead of sending them to other places to be inanufactured and helping to build up other towus at the expense of our own. We have the prettiest and cleanest little town in Ontario, but we lace industries and by voting for the By -Law you help to keep our young people home and bring in others to help pay our taxes. Also if the can- ning factory conies I assure you there will be other industries follow and in- side al' five years our quiet little vil- lage will be turned into a hive of in- dustries. with as population of three to five thousand persons. (5) Remember our security is as good as gold. We get 0 mortgage on 535,000_frir a loan of $10,000 and with tire taxes -which will be paid by the Company and by people who will come here when they can secure work, there will be no necessity of the rate of tax- ation being any higher than it is at the present time, as there will be so much more assessable property. (6) You elected the present Council expecting them to bring in some in- dustries. They have done their best and have secured a good thing. Stand by then. and vote for the By -Law. (7) Other towns have held out in- ducements and have secured industries and are going ahead. Why not give Exeter a boost and make a town outof it. We have been a village long enough. (8) Every business man in town is in favor of the By -Law and is satis- fied that the security for the loan is all right. Every solicitor in town thinks" the security all right and why should you think otherwise? (0) I understand there are a few people in town who are working very hard against the By -Law. Stop and think; can you recollect any one thing those same parties ever did to help fur- ther the best interests of Exeter? How many families are there in Exeter who have not been obliged to send their children to other places to make their living; all on account of our own citi- zens not pulling together and getting industries of our own to keep our young people home. If all the people who have been obliged to Ieave their homes here to seek a livelihood else- where were all to return at one time what would we do with them? Could we accommodate them? I think not. (10) The future prosperity of Exeter hinges on this proposition which is be- fore you. Vote the By -Law down and the town goes down, for if this By - Law is defeated there will be no use tiling any further to get industries to locate here. But if it is carried it will be the forerunner of many industries coming to Exeter, which means higher wages, higher rent, higher prices for real estate, plenty of money in circu- lation and good times for all. Exeter never had as good an opportunity to get one of the hest industries in Cana- da and all local capital subscribed by local citizens, as it has at the present time. Vote for the By -Law, even if it does raise your taxes thirty cents. Thanking you, Mr. Editors, for your space. Yours truly, A. Q. BOBIER.

August 4, 1906 Voting on By-law FOR �5T The y -law AGAINST ' The 'By-law How to Vote Saturday. We believe the retired farmer al- most without exception will vote for the By-law onSaturday. They should, too. When it comes to voting Saturday don't be a herniae on the wheels of progress. Vote for a good thing when you have the opportunity. Retired farmers are still interested in their farms. The Canning Factory will help the boy by voting for the by- law. The cost to you is so very light that it is not worth considering. Remember that your taxes will not he any higher if the loan is made to the Canning Company because the Town Hall debt is wiped out, as was explained in Mr. Fake's letter last week. A large percentage of the voters Sat- urday will be ladies. They know the value of an industry in keeping the boys at home. They will vote for the by-law and help their own town. Every lady voter should vote. It is said that some Exeter North people would vote against the by-law because the factory will be'built at the south end. Nobody knows where it will be built. Tn o essentials are plenty of water and convenient for shipping. They would indicate that the fact- ory will be built nearer the north end than the south end. Every person should vote for the by-law, no matter what part of the town you live in. There are 482 available votes on the by-law. If less than 96 votes are poll- ed against it 290 for the by-law will caro* it. If 96 or over are cast against it then 322 for the by-law are necessary to carry:1t. When you consider the large number of voters who are out of town, yon will see that it very nec- essary that you should cast your vote for the by-law. It is not often that yon have so good a chance to boost the town so do not miss it. The actual cost of the loan of $10000 to the Canning Oompany during the whole 15 years is $3966.50 (Interest), less ten years' taxes (about $1500) and five years' taxes ($1250), which equals $1216.50, less the increase in value of your real estate, the wages to em- ployes, etc., which means that instead of being a cost to the town it will be a money maker, not only for the stock- holder, but for the taxpayer. Vote for the by-law and secure the industry. Dashwood Ernest,Bender of Blyth was in town Monday shaking hands with old friends. -E. M.
