A question o very much importance to the Town of Ingham will be settled by the ratepa rs on Friday of this week. The We tern Foundry Co. is in the position 'of eing unable to meet the heavy dema ds for the products of the foundry in the way of Stoves, ranges and furn ces and in order to keep pace with the increased business the company is fore to 'enlarge their premises so as to e able to employ more workmen. T e company asks for encouragement from the town and in order tha the ratepayers may clearly unde stand the mat- ter before easting their ballots we again give the poin in the agreement between the Town and the Western Foundry Co:— The Town is to g've $750 fer the pur- chase of a new sit ; loan $10,000 for ten years without nterest; gives the company exemptio from taxation for ten years, except f r school and county rates and fixes the assessment for ten yeare at $15,000. In return for th se favors the Wes- tern Foundry Co. agrees to purchase a new site of not ess than four acres within the corpor tion; to erect build- ings and install miichinery to the value of P0,000; repay file loan POO per year for nine years and the balance at the end of the term; to employ at least 150 workmen the fiifst year and not less than 200 men thetsecond and following years; time she 'ts to be assessed if workmen are ot up to the number specified in the greement. The town to have as seeur ty a first rnertgage on the new plant. To the writer' mind this is an extel- lent proposition or the Town and one our ratepayers s °led heartily support. Wingham needs all her present in- dustries and ap the neW ones that can be induced to locate in the Town. In this case we are dealing with a com- pany that has ade good, one that has paid out a large um of money in wages, which in turn ha been a benefit to every business man a property owner in the Ttlwonoking at and cents wa he matter in a dollar the Town stands to largely benefit y the passing of this by-law. The tiital Ott to the town in the way of inthrest on debentures to provide for theiloan and $750 for the site trill te years amount to $4,- 328.50.
