THE PURE WATER BY-LAW.
The public meeting called to con-
eider this 13y -law was rather slimly
• attended,and did not betoken the
interest that so vital a question
should command.
c s o owas .elected
Mr. A. Ii, Ai r gr v d
Chairman. The Aiayor spoke briefly
until Mr. Morton, chairman of the
Commission, arrived, who went fully
into tbe history of the question, the
reasons for the change of location of
the wells, etc. Ho stated that the
engineer calculated that there was a
• sufficient supply of water to supply
a town four times the size of Wing -
ham, and with the largo reservoir
containing 200,000 gallons, which was
proposed, and .our standpipe holding
180,000 gallons, there would be an
abundance for all purposes. The sum
originally voted was altogether in-
adequate, hence the Commission bad
no alternative, but to ask for more,
Farther there was no provision in
previous by-law for installation of
water services ; of - these 120 were
wanted, which world prodnce a
revenue as soon as installed. It was
also the intention of the Commis-
sioners to establish .a day -power plant
at the upper dam, and the increased
revenue from that source alone would
more than .inset the sinking -fund
necessary to meet the annual deben-
ture.
In replyto questions asked, Mr.
Morton said tbe Commissioners
would satisfy themselves that the
casing was into the ``rock, before
proceeding. The proposed improve-
ments to the stains provided for in the
By-law were also explained.
Messrs. W. A. .Currie, McKenzie,
Gregory and others, announced them-
selves as, opposed to the by-law; Mr.
ne Currie was in favor of pure water in
▪ any location, but gave his reasons for
opposing the by By-law ; they are—
the present wells not satisf.tctory,
the casings not being down to the
rock, and flow of water decreasing,
Mr. Bennett would support the
by-law; he thought the town had a
good thing in the flowing wells and
should be delighted over it. The ad-
ditional sum received from the upper
water -power alone would pay the
debenture, to say nothing of increased
income from scores of services people
were asking for.
Some present expressed doubt as to
the power being sufficient, Mr. Mor-
ton explained that • the pumping
would be done at night, when the
electric load was light.
To the Advance, the question ap-
pears thus:-
1—Wingham wants pure water.
2 -Wells have been drilled at con-
siderable expense ; it is too late now
to discuss location—there they are.
3—The Commissioners will not
_ proceed until they are satisfied the
wells are right, so far as casings being
put into the rock.
4—The water services now wanted
will produce ii largely increased
• revenue.
5—Day.power is desirable if our
town is to make progress.
6 -The increased revenue from the
upper power alone will meet the
annual debenture on thedeht created,
and the town will have the water into
the bargain.
ain.
7—When the question is so .far
advanced, is it worth while bickering
• over location of wells 2
8—There is about $4000 now on
hand that can bo expended for no
other purpose. The Commissioners
can (and no doubt will) go on and
expend that as far as it will go. The
Town then Will have no option —.
either lose the whole $6000 already
voted, or before long vote more to
complete the work. That means the
submission of another By-law before
a year :passes and of course more
expense. -
The vote on the byelaw will be
taken next Monday, at the following
places :—Ward 1, at Wm..ohnston's
tailor shop. ' Ward 2; at Wm. Gan-
nett's- implement shop. Ward 8, at
Cho Town Hill. Ward 4 (No. 1) at

High Temperature.
Tho weather last week and part at
leastof this week has been remarkable
for its high temperature. Monday is
set down as the hottest day on record,
at least for many years. In`Toronto,
the thermometer marked from. 101 to
101 in the shade, and Stonecliff, Al-
goma (said to be the hottest place in
Ont.) 109 was registered. Many places
in Ontario are suffering for want of
rain. In this vicinity we have -had
occasional showers, but to the south
and east, drought has prevailed. The
excessive heat and dry weather was
predicted by Prof. Hicks, a year ago,
and he of
e intimates that a she
e shortage
rain -fall may be expected' through
July and August, though in many
places, there may he local showers.
The drought, is serious in southern
Ontario, and prayers for rain were
made in merry churches on Sunday
last. Near Port Stanley the cattle
owners are driving miles to the lake.
In big barrels and in milk cans they
are carrying the water back to the
farins that the animals may have the
supply they need.
