column opinions we regarding the wfeJom ilie ffithou the covert id rum 1 and Light Co While outwardly to a rational as be ne factors He says horns of most eminent engineers in liie country pronounce Ihe he man by feasible If we arc to understand by this that modern cii1 and mechanical skill is capable of surmounting opposing in the way of construction then we con cede the simple ground of possible feasibility but feasibility in this sense does not mean practical utility as an investment or commercial enter prise Our Deputy says Some engineers endorse the project but equally qualified engineers men like and others who have a large interest in Torontos success tell us otherwise as a commercial under- taking considering the lockage stop pages and consequent expense these us it would take a stream vessels almost touching one an other and passing at a rate of speed now averaged by vesselson the Canal five months in the year to pay less than two per cent on the investment In other words we have to assume an almost impossible state of things to enable the enter prise to pay capitalists less than two percent In this sense we contend the enterprise is anything but fea sible and hence all the other non sense about Uncle Sams millions without bavin shrewdness to see about its commercial feasibility is a vain attempt to cast a glamour over the scheme of who attempt to justify conduct that bears the impress of want of judgment Bui supposing the position taken by our Deputy to be tenable then we hold he and his colleagues were remiss in not so qualifying the petition to the Legislature as would protect both public and private interests Why did not the Council ask Assembly to see to it that the proposed company should be com pelled to build bridges at every con cession or side road the canal crossed or inteifcrrcd with Why did they not limit that all etc should be made by the Company Unlike a railway farmers cannot drive across an open canal without bridges Many farms may be so split upas incon venient for farm operations without bridges Why did not the Council ask the Legislature to protect these interests and not Lave indivi dual at the mercy of sharks Why did they in shorty ask Legislature to grant a perpetual of immense worth without a cent of return to the people Their entire plant is asked to he made frecof taxation and should they come near enough to an town or village to put in light or power private enterprise would be taxed and this monopoly untaxed But we do not intend to pursue matter fur ther than to say if the County Coun cil would confine to the legiti mate work for which it is organized and not three- dollars a day each of the peoples taxes for doing outside business of a private character and on which the ratepayers of the country have not pronounced our Deputy would be spared the necessity of calling attention to the ability its members If a private individual or company want legislation ia the Assembly they are required to put up to cover expense and we do not tee why the general taxpayers of York should be called to pay to Councillors to express an Opinion on the speculating schemes of private corporal ions or companies Council Is not legislative it never was to intended Its sphere is one of practical within certain limits and when that body trans- these bounds it travels beyond its functions and assumes what does not properly belong thereto The Aqueduct Heat Power etc scheme is simply a business enter- that should oh its merits and contribute its quota towards law and order taxation the same as any
