councillor beebe was absent through illness james muston appeared before the council again protesting against the water rates of 20c per 1000 gallons as provided under the bylaw he contended that the green houses were a valuable asset to the town the firm now had a half acre of glass and expected this summer to increase the plant to one acre under glass the present rate was too high after much discussion council offered a special rate of 12c per 1000 gallons which mr muston still contended as too high it exceeded the rate in toronto he said and did not encourage industries the flat rate of 12c was estimated to produce a revenue of about 60 per year on the amount of water to be used by the green houses and the council contended this was a very low rate and any lower rate could not be entertained a resolu tion to this effect was put through setting the rate as stated above on motion of scott and silversides the purchase of 500 worth of can ada permanent bonds bearing 5 per cent interest was ratified for cemetery investment funds the veteran clerk j urquhart requested an increase in salary com mensurate to the large volume of work that has been heaped upon the office of late and more to come when the hydro is installed coun cil readily granted the request and attached an extra 100 per year to the present salary which will now be s50 this amount however includes office rent and heat furnish ed to the town it was decided to advertise locally for hydro poles as indicated else where in this issue it is expected that the shorter poles can be secured from local farmers who may as well have the money that would other wise be sent out of the locality for rebuilding the town lines some 74 new poles will be required including five 40 foot six 45 foot thirty 35 foot and thirtythree 30 foot length the longer poles will have to be procured from the hydro but the shorter lengths will be found in this section on october 28th the treasurer of the corporation of

day the opposition to hydro in stouffville is so insignificant that their votes could scarcely be found in the ballot box out of 235 pro perty owners who cast ballots on the question of enabling the council to enter into an agreenvut for the pur chase of hydro powor for this town only two persons cast ballots gainst the bylaw while 233 voted avoraole on the question of issuing deben tures to the extent t 11 000 to rebuild the electric linos in he -or- poration 233 people voted hut them were eleven dissenter evidently these eleven citizens thought it pos sible to run the hydro over the present dilapidated system but hydro regulations will not permit this all lines must be in a safe condition the eligible vote on either question was 321 so that only 86 failed to vote at all of the two dissanting votes for hydro one was in each of the two rviiug divisions anil there is inuh speculation to win markfd ihose ballots tho couple may justly sing tcgher that little balant writi btsrtft thus when musing on our ballots cast we doubly feel ourselves alone however citizens have a right to their own views and we respect them the more for their indepen dent thought even though it is wrong
