will And it very much more comfortable than it is and to our knowledge and experience has been for the past years cold uncomfortable not well heated for the comfort of those who drive miles to attend this market and dispose of their produce and patronize the trade of the town We hope that the Town Council just elected acclamation will not think it too late this season to have a good Furnace put in the centre of the basement in order that the salesroom be more comfortable also have outside porches built with on the east west and south sides of the building to prevent the wind from entering We also hope to see the walls cleaned and painted white the floor scrubbed clean the windows clean and in the early spring time have a wide granolithic walk put down the centre of the market square put in by town mechanics from the south door to Timothy street with roof covering to project over each side to protect tbe people from wet weather and hot sun and also to protect the produce in the wagons which will be backed up on each side of granolithic walk And if corporation are still owners of the Water Works Department a foun tain might be supplied with advantage to the visitor and his horse If the Electric Light plant is still own ed the town lights on Main street leading from the Grand Trunk Railway might be run rill after the midnight train arrives These improvements we think are fully due the long suffering attendants of the market and also townspeople The and money spent this way will be much better appreciated by the taxpayers of New- market than given the Metropolitan Railway Company who been given everything in sight without money and without price even to the franchise without end to the great inconvenience of the Farmer who so largely patronizes tho trade of the town and who makes use of Main street so much more than townspeo ple His convenience has been totally ignored for which we think the Town Council of should apologize The newly elected and progressive Council of this year will we hope make application to the Legislature at once before any change of Government and with the assistance of our very esteemed member the Honor able J Davis who is always alert to the interests of the Farmer the Reform Government we know will come to our relief and put a time limit on this Franchise that was so very generously given away the Town Council of We are justly entitled to a price for this Franchise it having a value the same as any Franchise has a value its only a matter of finding out what that value is and that is the easy part the only trouble now is that our Town Fathers of forgot it or did not know that we had such a good thing which in justice to the Farmer patronizing the trade of the town we should own today we parted with it without consulting him We never thought of his comfort or convenience his wile or his daughter driving into town through the main thoroughfare Now in order for their safety and comfort we must oblige them to enter by the hack and side street Not very nice of us is it When we receive an income from the franchise through the help of the legis lature let us use it to reduce our heavy tax of mills on the dollar and let us make a by learning a lesson- from the good Scotch city of Glasgow the most economically managed city in the world where they have- In conclusion let us be thankful that Mr the able manager of the Metropolitan Railway Co did not ask for the market building for a station who never were in favor of an electric railway on the main thoroughfare as per the information given the Council of by them of the experience of an Eastern town with electric care This information was given before the agreement was signed Newmarket Thursday morning January London Ont Jan 5 Death came in
