evidently just do not care as they didnt bother to turn out and votefor or against it on mon day and the council are now empowered to go ahead with the installation of the system for a bylaw involving such a great amount of money the lack of interest was remarkable during the three weeks time from the first publication of the bylaw we never heard more than two or three even ask about it and those who did did so in a most perfunctory way how ever it is all over now and if the project is proceeded with uxbridge will have an uptodate sewage dis posal system to hitch up with their already fine domestic water service which is proving more and more useful every day and twenty years from now the town should be in a most enviable position from a tax ation standpoint with revenues flowins in from both systems that should allow a considerable drop in the tax rate there is only one point that we can find fault with and one which the council are not to be held responsible and that is the term of years for which the debentures run we think this should have been for i thirty years rather than the twenty years called for and suggest that i the council again endeavdc to have the department of municipal affairs allow the change and let posterity pay some at least for this necessary improvement gherrywood mr and mrs wm davidson and family had tea on sunday evening with mr and
