In the by-law, providing $85,000 for 'the improvement and extensions of the light plant, the people have a very important question to decide, They should get all the information that can itl be given on the sub- ject, so that their decision may be a sound one. : In the first place it is well to clear away a misconception as to the pro- posud extensions to the plant. : --t It 'Will Not Increase Taxes. A misconception entertained by a good number of voters is that in voting for the by-law, a man is vot- ing to increase the general tdxation. There is not a word of truth in this. All that the citizens do by carrying the by-law is to pledge the general credit of the city for. the payment of #85,000 in debentures which will he issued to pay for the extensions, but these will not be paid out of the general taxes; they will be paid out of the profits of the light plant, and the users of the gas and electric light help to pay for these. The, citizens need be under no apprehension that their taxes are goimg to be increased. The plant will take * care of this debt: the taxes will not be increased one iota if this by-law is carried, pro- vided that the plant can be made to pay a profit on the added amount of capital put into it, viz., $55,000. The great, the all important ques tion, therefore, for the taxpayer will the plant, pay a profit on amount of, capital invested ? a If it does, then he is safe, and it is the duty of those. interested to give sucp information as will enable hip, to decide this question. Now 'the only way in which it can be decided on the merits is by review- ing the history of the plant since it was taken over by the city. We must judge by its past record of what to expect in the, future. the. Will The Plant Pay ? In the first place it can be truth- fully stated that up to the present time the plant always has paid. In the hands of the old company it paid handsome dividends. It asserted, indeed, that it was only through the dividends from the light plant that the Street Railway company managed to keep afloat as long as it did When the light plant was taken over hy the city, the street railway had lost the goose which laid the golden egg and was soon obliged to go into liquidation, It is said that during the seven years that the street railway had control of the light plant, the latter earned over $43,000 net. But, it is asserted, at that time lighting gas sold at $2 per thousand feet. Now it is 'being sold for $1.50 per thousand feet and the question is can that be done profitably ? Besides $85,000 is per year is being added to the burden of the plant in order to pay off this £85,000, and interest in thirty years. That is very true and that is a fac- tor that must be borne in mind in discussing this question. (To be continued). Real Good Advice: Mr. Progressive Citizen, yout. Cobalt is right here. So use your surplus earnings in the town in which you live as to open the gold mine under your eves. You risk, perhaps, more than you care by going abroad. At home you can place investments in safe channels. You can oversee things and join in co-operative movements for the common good. By acting from a feel- ing of loyalty to your own town you can help to create conditions here that make for a rich mine undisturb- ed by the "manipulation of & broker, and immune from the operations of a board of directors intent on feathering their own nests. These are the days of town building. Show your mettle and loyalty by praiseworthy work in behalf of the community in which the best that is in you becomes an object lesson for less enterprising fellow- townsmen. Wheel The Baby Out.
