In one night never known here at this time of year for the past years When the walks on Main St were cleaned the snow wae piled three feet high and people wondering what the road would do in such a It has reminded the oldest residents of the snow storm in March when snow commenced to fall on Saturday and con tinued for two days and two nights All trains were blocked from Saturday till Tuesday evening The snow on Main street was nearly four feet high from walk to walk Mr Bogart has a photo of the scene Three men drove to In a boggy on Sunday and it took them from a to get home next day Another man was with a livery Sunday and be rode home horse back morning leaving the boggy behind Mr says that in all his experience of nine years at the milk bust he never had a time in deliver ing It toot team from am till pm to get over the rout and be was forc ed to feed his horses town Laborers had lots work couple of days cleaning walks levelling Main street and out of yardi School children have had great fun jump snowbanks The sleighing It grand and everybody hopes It will continue till after Christmas The Deputy Lloyd making a At the Council meeting on Monday evening becaute the lights wero burning around town at three oclock in the after noon He complained that lights were started too scon and burnt too long in the morning a waste of fuel This intter will never be adjusted satis factorily people pay for what they use This can only be done by meter and If the meter rate reduced to would he an object for the people to pot In metere and be more It all to talk about tho lights going on too and off too late Many persons who the light know that this in not the esse but there are again many people who contrary to the provisions of their contract allow their lights to burn without turning them off all the time the dynamo is in mo tion thereby causing a loss to revenue An reporter was at tfas trio light station when the dynamo was started before four oclock one bright day last week and at thai hour there no than lights in service This is al together unreasonable Had everybody been paying by meter we venture to say not onethird the lights would be in The people who are using lights are tbe ones tbat are paying for them and the overplus is giving the street- lighting at a We strongly advise the Council to leave the flat rates they are and reduce the meter rate Many of the stores have meters and they are satisfied that it is the correct method to adopt The only residence in town that has run a meter Is the editor and we are perfectly satisfied that compared with flt rate for residences the present meter rate is too high We installed ten lights and ran them for over ft year gn flat rate Although we burnt them the same as other people wo were satisfied that ft deal of light was going to waste Mors than once the collar light was acci dentally left burning all and some times a light was not out when the boys went to bed We are that this ie case in many other houses because at any hour of the night a person can count ten lights burning to one before the light was introduced Our ten lights cost for the year We added six more lights rooms that were not very much and put in a meter We are dent we do not use much as we did with the ten lights on the fiat rate the house practically shut up for two- months in the summer the meter rate cost 919 or an advance of At the same time wo must admit that the present meter rate pays person who Is economical fiat rate for our lights is a difference of our favor The meter cost and to install so that in years it pays for itself with interest at per cent on money Invested It Conooil put the raw down to it would be mors encouragement for people to put meters in and the town would be paid for all the light need There are only twenty people who are paying for allnight lamps but the indicator at the light elation shows over are carried all through the night In point of fact the users of electric light are paying for nearly all tbe street and it is not very becoming for one who pays nothing to find fault The Council next year should make a reduction in light prices and tbe meter only proper way to do it Another thought baa occurred to Why not take the overplue andpurchsBe meters Lai the town provide meters for everybody the light the same a a gas companies and charge uniform rate of ten or twelve cents per watt They would pay for themselves in two or three years Put meters in the Town Hall and Council Chamber and the to the respective accounts and then we would know how the matter actually stood We might explain that the reason the lights were burning at oclock on Monday afternoon was to test the trans formers Owing to the storm on night three were burnt out and had to make
