up and too many Councils or other pub -

into a law -suit, the outcome of which is
said to be nearly always against a nor•

such a thing as being made a mark on

BECAUSE Provincial Attorney General
Rainey stated a few unspoken thing
about race track gambling, the thorough
enforcement of the Ontario Temperance
Act, the., the Liberty Leaguers are al-
ready whetting their scalping knife and
threaten to have his scalp or that of any
other mac who does not swallow their
cordials or say their prayers to these
ieth century dictators. IE the League
did not heed the bump administered so
forceably on the Referendum vote their
snarling now will not be wondered at,
A program that spells toboggan in every
number is not likely to be much sought
after by people whose ambition is to
climb rather than slide. If the Liberty
League were taken seriously it would be
a menace to Ontario but now it is a
laughing stock and the more they rave
the more they prove it,
Good News About Hydro
Lucknow Sentinel says 1—"Mr.
Flint, one of the engineers in connec-
tion with the Hydro Service from
Eugenia was in town getting up-to-
date information about Lucknow's re-
quirements, and incidentally giving
out some information of a gratifying
nature,
Some changes have been made with
regard to the plans for supplying
Lucknow and Ripley. One of these is
that a transformation station will be
located at Hoiyrood to serve Lncknow
and Ripley instead of having a station
at each place. This enables the Com-
mission to materially reduce the cost
of service. For example, Lucknow
can now get current $60 per h. p, hi -
stead of $68, which was l.l>e first esti-
mate ; and the tate for Ripley is re-
duced from $88 to $60.
Sit'. Flint said that everything is
in good shape for going right on with
the system, and the Commission is
anxious to see the necessary By-laws
passed in order that it may get the
poles on the ground with sleighs.
This will be a great advantage over
doing the teaming with wagons. If
this can be done a number of gangs of
men will be put to work in the early
Spring, and Mr, Flint said that the
Commission might be able to supply
current to Lucknow by the first of
August, and certainly not later than
Oct. 1st.
Let us hope that these expectations
will be realized.
Another advantage in having the
transformer faerners in locality of
113olyl'ood and Ripley can be supplied
with current. No doubt a number
will take advantage of this.
