As election day is drawing near, and
a vote is to be taken on a Hydro Bylaw
The New, Era has been watching the
various weeklies and daily papers for
more "light", and we give a few editor-
ial views from a few:-
(Stratford Beacon)
The passage of the bylaw requested
by the 1•lydro-Electric Comntisison
will not commit the city to any expen-
diture" without another bylaw. Pro-
vision .is made In theactpassed last.
session for the development of power
at Chippewa for its being done by the
Government. The.Government 11 will-
ing, it appears, to have this work done
by the Hydro -Electric Commission if
municipalities interested or that be-
come interested by requiring more
power are in favor of that being done.
Whether it would be better to have it
done by the Commission inay be ques-
tioned. Some of the movements made
by the Commission have not shown
thatitis any safer than the Govern-
ment would be, but that may be dis-
cussed further before the time of vot-
ing comes. There' is a suspicious look
about the haste in endeavoring to get
the bylaw passed in such a short time:
It ' could have been ready sooner and
have given the people a better oppor-
tunity to understand it.

Dear Mr. Editor:
It is impossible to convey to you and
the folks at home any idea of tite-con-
ditions in the old land compared with
Canada. Here we see more .of the real
preparation and'also more of , the real
effects of the war; Everyone seems
to bear a burden and yet there is a
feeling reflected in the speech andman-
ners of Ole people here, that we will
win out but Ole price is staggering.
The .1 dist boys are all fine and set,

very well. It is a: regret that we can-
not keep together as a Battl. but we
