Musgrove was voted to the chaii, Mayor Spotton and outlined the Commissioner speaker and in a plained all the was the first speaker abject of the by-law. orton was the next ery dear manner ex- etails in connection with the water orks system and the plans as had )een adopted by the Commissioners. t was purely a matter of what the Co missioners considered good business in changing the location of the position o the wells from the upper to the low r power house. They thought it bette to have the water and electric light pla is in the one place. By doing this th upper water power could be used f r generating electric power for a day service for the town and the lease to Howson & Brockle- bank for the wat r privilege could be cancelled and thi firm supplied with electric power, he water from the wells had been to ted by the Govern- ment Analyst an had been pronounc- ed good drinkiag ater, and the plant they purposed ins ailing would supply ample water for our times the present requirements, Are water was what the town needed but the first thing to look to was th safety of the town from fire and the proposed system would give us ex ellent fire protection. The by-law vote on in January, 1909, did not provide sufficient money to complete the sys em and did not pro- vide anything f r installing services where there wer water mains in front of the premises and it was unfair to take the cost of t ese out of the cur- rent year's revent`ie so a sum was in- serted in present liy-law to cover cost of this work. If li -law is carried Mr. Morton felt sure t ere would be from 120 to 140 rcyri sery ces. He felt they would have suffici nt power and in every way felt that the system as pro- posed by the prest by-law was the one for the town o adopt. With the water and light sytems under one roof a saving of fully '` 00.00 per year would be effected in wa: es alone, a sum suffi cient to pay the in erest and debentures on the $5,000 ask:d for in the by-law. Mr. Morton said t e Commissioners had relied on the eng neer for their plans and estimates an he felt sure the $5,000 asked for ould complete the system. Mr. S. Bennett *as heartily in favor of the by-law. Helfelt that the people of Wingham did no aprreciate a good thing when they h d it. He would do all in his power to carry the by-law. Mr. Thos. Gregory was opposed to the change of the 1 cation of the wells and thought that plant should have been placed at the pper power house. Coun. Bone said a was not opposed to the system of p re water and felt that the Commissi ners were now do- ing what should h e done 15 months ago. He was oppo ed to the changing of the location of t e wells. Mr. W. A. Curr"e was not opposed to the scheme if in 1 its opinion the wells were in proper c.ndition and properly completed. He d d not think the eas- ing in the wells h : d been put down to the rock. Mr. John Eidthought if present scheme were a„opted more motive power would be n eded at the plant. W. S.
