IttI700Y 11WNSIt 00000» sllrh0W1 yr. The submission of a Bylaw by the Council of Bennie, granting exemption of texee to Robert Thomson, of tbie plane, on a gold etorege building and plant, to be; erected on Lot 105, Minato an the corner of Turnberry and Market streets, at a oast of about 64,000, will come before the property owners ou Mon• day of 'text week for en expression of their opinion by the ballot. It is a matter of no email importance to our town that tbie By-law should be sustained by a good majority as it means the permanent location of a modern neoeaalty t0 every enterprising place, and with the animated rivalry exieling be tween villages and towns euob advantage gained means much for the future. Tbie is not a bonne as ao money 1e paid to Mr, Thomson. About 98 00 a year ie collected on the lot upon wbioh he pro. posse to build and his tnoreaeed share of eohool tax and Business tax will poeeibiy quadruple the amount now reoeived from the vaeant premieee, The sewer and eidewalk taxes will have 6o be paid by Mr. Thomeon ae no Conuoil no exempt these. It the By law unties arrangements will oommeuoe at onoe to erect a two story cement baildiog with the most modern ooldPP Y d n enrage apparatus. An e ' Is sore to that part of the village will he removed and at the expiration of 10 years the regular quota of taxes will' be paid. With nob a building' will oome of labor 0.9tb employment e 'I d n and var. a icklin will be oarxte o ions other forme of work with the np-to- date faoilitiee poeoeeeed. By oold storage the poseibllities of better market are aseored as the risks of oarrying over perishable produce or fruit are largely obviated. This will not only benefit Mr. Thomson but the whole com- munity as persona requiring the nee of oold storage will have the privilege of the tome at a moderate charge. Since tbie que0tiou of cold storage tine none np other plane have approaob ,•d councillor Thomeon with a view of inducing him to remove from Bruaeele but he desiree to continue to do bnoineee if the property owners will allow by carrying the Bylaw next Monday that they too ben faith in our tidy little town. Mr. Thomson is no fakir nor swindler who comes hunting for special privileges bot a tried, trained, energetic booinecs man who has eetnbliehed a trade well worthy of hearty aommende lion, Hta possible removal from Brae - se's would mean a serious lose to many interests. There is a total of 270 owners o0 the Vetere' List but out of this number 44 are absent, leaviog 226 poesible votes. The ipw ie stringent on the passing of by. laws and demands that at least two thlyde of the pollable vote be recorded. 'Tbie means that 180 owners moat record their vote favorably to put beyond a peradventure the carrying of the Bylaw granting the reads -don of taxes and thereby 000001ng the greatly to -be desired utility. Unmarried ladies and widows with the necessary property goeliSoation t the entitled to vote on B•law next 9 Monday.
