Hub.icriliir nayinif advance Bet tlie Montreal Herald ?1.00 strictly in one year The Eugenia Develipment To till" Editor of The Alliance ; Dkab Sin,â€" It is •/ritifyiiiij to mo to know that Ihedeveliipnieiit of thi.s power in about assured 'I'liiitoen years ag" [ went to Eugenia to live, saw at onco the LToat po.s^i^)llilic.s and .set to work to do what 1 could til that end. As is genor- ally well known, tho greater part of the power belonged tip a certain gentleman in Tiiroiilo who held it at such an exorbitant price that, to gel any ono even to look in'o the matter wam iinpossiblo, the property being aKsessod at $800 and the amniiiit of taxes paid being less than $20 a year, and the owner asking $400,- CllO for it. I thought it unfair that the township wa.s getting so little and the iiwner wanting kh much. I saw the ti'Wnvhip council, and after pointing out to tlieni the injustice they put up tho »8i>es«nioiit to 82000 â€" that was better â€" then the next year to S5000, and I believe the asHessuieiit for the next ten years will he 840,000, so that 'he municipality will ho vury much beiienitcd, as well as by the $2000 which the company will pay .-the township f«r tho falls proper, winch was worth nothing to tho towpsliip but m very valuublu to the company. During my nine years' residence at Eugenia 1 spent both time and money in an en- deavor to have snmelhiifg done, and was taliooed and told many times that it woul.l never he developed. However, later on outsiders beg.<n to investigate and aeiii' power experis 1 1 look into the liosniliilities, and through them I got considerHhIe information and went to Toronto to seu tho owner, paying part of my own expenses. The promoter.'t, who wanted an uptioii for thirty days, nrt'ered $10,(K)0, >50 down, halunco thirty day, but the owner would not sell lesi than his price, $400,000 ! This was r.'illier discouiiiging, and many times ha8 the development of this splendid power been liliick<<d. It is astoiiisliing hoi« hard it Is to got some of the most Intelligent men in other mattera interested even so far as to iiuestigato for an instant. H.niiig holpeil Wat erpowof experts upon two o(:;:»siohs to inonsiire the water, I was, iH-rlmiM, hciior informed «• to the poiailiiliiius at Eugenia. In return for ussisliiig I hum they gave me their estimate pf the viduinu of water, the number rif hoivepower it would develop under dilTer- ent [lUos of doeelopmeiit. As an instance of stupidity I will give you a case in p)iiit. About live yea>H ago I had huni iiesH ill the town of Collinuwood wiih 'i Mr. Cooper, and I wan telling him ahouf the powv'r at Kugenii, and remarked that tho town should secure this power for lighting and nmnufaciuriiis. I to!d him tho oinount of power which it would kIvo aU'l ho seemed intereHtud anil said if I iroul4 â- Â«n4 Itiai all >h9 iofgrmAtion \ b«tl ho would 'ay the matter bisforo the BoarJ ' (if Trade, he being a member of that ,' body. I did ho, and after about two months, not hearing from him I wro'e \ asking him to return my pipers also ask- ing if there was any chance of his ti>wii raking hold of tho matter. In returning my papers ho said he had laid tho matter hoforo the Board of Trade and one of the members had assured them th.it bo was well aciiuainted with Eugenia and he was quite sure that \'A)0 iKoaepowor would he the most tli.kt could bo ohliined, and it was decided that so small a power was not w(nth bothering with. This wiih either ignorance on his pait or else ho was deliberately trying to mislead the lii aid of Tiado, the act heing that 300 lioisepower was'oiily a sipall fraction of ilio power availab'o. Itesult, Oweii Sound will very soon have several thou- siiiid electiicil horsepower at about linlf what it Would cost to generate the same amount of power by Bteani, and Colling- wood will ho the loser. Many have pro- iiouncfjd adversely on the jiower, and this is how they were deceived. In the early days the bed of tho river at the brink of ilio falls was level and the water flowed over in ono continuous shoot, not broken as it is now by the displacement of rocks causing a division of tho waters. 1 lived ni:io years at Eugenia and 1 dn not think tho volume of water was any less the last year than it was nine years ago. It IS astonishing hnw readily smiiti people will try to ciicourage others withimt making the leant investigHtlon. 'lliuy know it all and that settles ii. A case in iioinl in our own village : Some live or six years ayo myself and another party decided that if Fleshortou woulil Hubscribo for lighting wo would [lut in a plant. We bad a uioeltng to tidk tho matter over, and after several pre.ient had given their views, tho then leading merchant was called upon for his tipinioii. Tills waa what he thought, that if the old coal oil lamps wore fixed up and eoiiio- ono paid to look after 'hem, ihey nera good enough for Flesherlon That settled it, alihough there wan no bonus asked, simply will you buy our lighting? ilow- ovcr, shoitly after that Do.igio brothers camu to Eugenia and I went with them and looked tho power over. They being practical men who understood what they saw, declared it to bo a very fine power. The result was thttthuy wanted toseouie our Eugenia power for the purpose of lighting flesherto I, and had Flodherton 1 .. not secured the liglits at thai, time it is TnfAllA/tf | very doubtful if they would have ever lUHJliOVil, A man named Adamsmi was stabbed by an Italian at Shallow Lake and is in a precarious ceuuil ion.
