TRUTH BEFORE FAVOR." PRINCIPLED NOT MEN.' 3 No. 3.-> Flesherton, Ont., Thursday JVIarclrt 26, IO14 W. H. THDRSTON E tad n.O A Line to be Finished By February, 1915 A delegation of Owen Sound men vis- ited Toronto last week and waited on the Hydro-Electric C'ominuairm to tind out how early the town might expect a delivery ef electric enc-gy from Eugenia falls. Reporting the interview the Times Mr. Gaby made it t mphatic that the t commission would spare no effort to ex- . pedite the work at Kugeuia falls. All winter they have beeu I usy on the prop- osition and now have everything practi- cally in shape for work in May. There bas been much tedious detail in connee- * tion with the deeds of the lands which the commission has found it necessary to kci{iiire for the purpose of forming a storage reservoir against the dry period that is inevitable in midsummer. About nix hundred acres has been acquired, and ',! the engineering plans have been laid and the route of the line located. It is the intention of the commission to develop no less than the full live thou- " sand hoisepower from the first. They will build the dam which they spoke of . at first and which would not be necessary for the generation of fifteen hundred horsepower or so. But with the virtual '.V acknowledgment (hat tha town of Owen Sound will need two thousand horse- power if the Doric Cement Company comes in- it a at -once necessary to ' provide for the full load. This will en- tail considerable work in damming and * creating a leservoir. But when Ibis is bnitihtd there will bo available froir. three to live thousand horsepoer,enoui!h 'o meet any contingency for the iifxt several years. .' An idea til the amount of power to be developed by the new Eugenia plant can bf obtained from the statement of Mr. Gaby that they will be able to iji-t a fall .f ~>'20 feet. Of course it will be necet- tary to ditch the water for some diVanci' nnd to pipe it the rest of the way. But it will be a great head when it is com- 1 pleted and the volume of water will not , hae to IIH great to insure a very large f amount of power when there i.s such a magnificent head. ^ 1 Duncan i Spring!
