On Friday evening at the requ'est of ltecve T. 41. McCallum a large number of the citizens suet 1n the Town Hall and dist uased waterworks. The meeting was opened by the reeve who spoke to the subject from the three heads, -The present eyetent, a new system for fire protection only, and a system to em- brace domestic and fire purposes, with sewerage connection. Many of the tanks In our present system were in a state of decay and too .mall for use In a targe fire, besides the system was out of date aid the question was whether we ought to Install a system for fire alone or to fire and domestic purposes. Certalit towns he knew of had standpipes at a cost of 85Ocu and then they were not satisfactory for fire purposes. Clinton is Installing a system for both purposes at a coat of $52,000. The reeve did not think wo were prepared to go that far, as the town was very scattered, and nearly every house had a good well of water, consequently we could not get revenue enough from It. The council, however, wished to know what the town warted so as to be able to tell ths ex- pert if they secured one. In reply to a statement by Richard Delbridge that atone or cement should make a better standpipe titan iron or steel the reeve said that he knew of none but iron, and they were said to last 25 years by an expenditure of 4150 a year fot repairs, palating, etc, Fire Chief James Weekes here stated that he would be pleased to answer any qu::atione that might be asked with re- gard to the present system. T. D. Carling favored buying the elec- tric light plant and the river property, building a dam and putting In a water- wheel. The tank system he thought no good. A man should be secured to look over the town and tell ua what would be most suitable. N. D. '-furdon agreed that the tank system was no good, and thought tnc springs oil Frayne's nod Dlssett's farms one nine elect should be. utilized in the way of forming a reservoir or filling a standpipe as these springer were. on a level with the top of the Central Hotel. Ile also spoke of a new Idea of obtain- ing high pressure from standpipes. 11. Spackman believed in acquiring the river property. Some yeats ago the coun ell got an estimate of $15,000 for a standpipe and mains along Mann street. He thought an expert should be. secured A. Q. Dobler said he had received a quotation of $3,000 for a 16 foot stand pipe. 100 feet high. He believed 1n es- tablishing a system for domestic pur- poses as well. Thought 625,000 would pay the bill. J. W. Taylor thought it would cost $50,000 or $73,000. Only two systems would be suitable for Ezetcr; Reservoir but we have no high ground ; and stand- pipe. welt 1. he favored with mains for u,c Mat:i street at least. .\ motion was here made by T. 13.

Hyde, Rice and Gra- ham brothers. these gentlemen being among the promoters of the line now :u thing from Stratford to St. Marys. Reeve McCallum took the chair and ex- plained the object of the gatnering. Mr. Hyde was the first called upon, who briefly explained matters pertaining to the project, 11e thought there was no rlu .stion as to the prospects o1 the road going through It the municipalities along the line of the proposed route would do their share towards financing the scheme to a succoastul issue. Mr. Rice said he was connected with the project of putting the road through front Stratford to St. Marys, being treas- urer of the company. The road had proved to be a great benefit to St. Marys and it would also prove of equal benefit to Exeter and all the rnunlcipalities through which the road runs. It was his desire to have the line extended through to Sarnia, but it would he necessary for the .nUnicipalltles to give t hetr assist- ance it the road was to be put t trough, as the coat to bu'1d would be about 42:1,- 000 a smile, irrespective of bridges. The C. P. R. were prepared to do their snare. Mr. L. H. Dicksoir then addressed the meeting. Hu said he was a warns friend and advocate of the new rail- way project and better railway facilit- ies. We want the proposed road the worst way and u :less we give some en- couragcnteht we arc not Ilkely to gel it. That the road would be a great benefit there is no doubt -that is conceded by all. 1Io would like to know what prop- osition the delegates had to offer. Mr. John W. Taylor said he was very n.u:h interested in this matter of better railway facilities and accomoda;lon, he thought we should have the road 1f 11 were possible. but Ito thought we should have some definite proposition and asked teat the St. Marys deputation lay down some proposition as to what might be considered a reasonable amount tor Ex- eter to contribute. Mr. J. Graham of St. Marys said he was not a railway magnate, but he ttou;ht there was every chance for the road to be put through Exeter and 1f tate good pceple of Exeter will give the needed assistance it is an assured thing. Ile child he was prepared to state that Inc station would no, be more than three or four hundred yards north of the Town Hall and not any further south than MO Manston Ilouse. 11e further stated that it would be necessary for the town to raise 410.000. Mr. 11. Spackman atter listening to the discussion suggested that a committee be formed, consisting of tha Counr-ll Board. Messrs. L. 11. Dickson, J 3tin W.
