A PROGRESSIVE MOVE
o the Editor of the Exeter Times. -
When the present council took of -
ice we were given the impression
bat many improycments would be
tide in the town, such as fire pro-
ection, etc. but, as yet very little
as been accodiplished, outside of
aiding a few meetings and securing
be services of as expert to go over
he ground and submit estimates for
he installing of a waterworks sys-
em.
The question of purchasing the pro-
erty at the river and rebuilding the
am hos often been suggested and ad-
vocated so that power might be goten
to furnish water for fire protection
purposes and establishing an electric
light plant. Also for giving water
to local consumers who wish it.
At present the town pays several
hundred dollars per year to operate
*he pumping station and nearly
11,300 for electric lighting and those
who use electri•• lights have to pay
considerable m than other places
for it. la '1'o. > the city's electri-
cal department is preparing a sche-
dule of prices to .be charged for
house lighting whish will be two cents
less than the Toronto Electric Light
Company charge, and they expect to
lower it still another cent. In Otta-
wa the civic electric light plant start-
ed by reducing the price of house
lighting 100 per cent, and the business,
last year was so good that a further
reduction of one cent was decided oft,I
snaking, the rate 6 1-2 cents per kil-
owatt hour.
In Exeter consumers are compelled
to pay 25 cents a month meter rent,
while St. Marys where the plant is
owned by the corporation charges
only 15 cents per month. The rates
in St. Marys are also lower and an
all night service is given. and the
profits go towards increasing the
town's exchequer.
The fault does not altogether lie
with the council. It is a matter of
great importance and the citizens
In gcueral should take an active in-
terest in the matter and assist them
in every way possible. Atc meetings
held during the winter when these
various topics were discussed thor-
oughly, especially that of fire pro-
tection, the dam scheme seemed to
ase with most favor.
One-third of the year has now
gone and I would suggest that the
council buy the old grist mill pro-
perty and erect the dam and carry
out their intentions of installing a
water system. as soon as possible.
There is no doubt but that sufficient
power could be developed by water
during most of the year. and besides
bringing in a revenue for ice, eto.
we would have a place for amuse -
petits, such as boating and swimming.
which Exeter woefully jacks. I
would also like to see the council put
In an electric lighting plant for town
and private use.
I would like to bear the opinion of
others on this question as 1 feel that
this is the only way to arouse public
sentiment.

GENERAL SIIERMAN'S ]'RAISE OF
GRANT
We have had some fighting ahead
with the enemy's cavalry, a pretty
formidable body sent ahead from Mis-
sissippi. the same division that was
in my front at Big Black and all of
Wheeler's Cavalry that escaped from
Tennessee: but 'I can engage their at-
tention and then divert their minds
from the road which supplies Rose-
crans' array. Grant I suppose now
is at Nashville, and will by his pre-
sence unite the nrmy more in feeling
than it seems hitherto to have been.
ile is so unpretending and honest
that a man must be base who will
not yield to him. The only possible
danger is that some may claim his
successes hitherto have been the re-
sult of nccident. but then too I hope
they will find themselves mistaken.
I have telegraphic notice from
Memphis that be has assumed com-
mand of the Armies of the Cumber-
land, Ohio and Tennessee. and that I
am to command the latter. My de-
sire has always been to have n dis-
tinct compact command. as a Corps.
but spite of my efforts I am pushed
into complicated places that others
aspire to and which 3 wish they had.
But with Grant I will undertake any-
thing in reason. From ' tGeneral
Shertnan's Letters Ilome," in the May
