The plarts were purchased by the city, in 1569, and a profit has been realized on them every year since. The sum in- vested is two millions of dollars. Cri: ginally the private owners were given stock in payment of their interest, and later the city bought this stock, and went on reducing the rates from $1.50 per thousand down to 48c. for i shased.

It is the result of the theory that succeeding generations, not the present, shall pay for these things. It is not Glas- gow's iden. Here it is héld that the debt shall be reduced, that the plants shall not be burdened with debt, but that the interest account being re duced or wiped out, there will not be the need of raising so much money, and the cost of the servico go down ~No_ Steat About This, The letter of Ald. Nickle contains suggestions with regard tp street lighting which aro entitled, on their merits, to serious consideration. The cost of street lighting has perhaps varied according to circumstances, and it may be necessary to make a caleu- lation each your, upon the data then available, in order that the city may he given every advantage which is ac- oring to it: In 1905 there was a substantial re- duction in the charge for strest light- ing. The plant had not been long in the possession of the city, and the ex- periment in public ownership was somewhat limjted, It may be that the reoords of the departments were not complete, and that the price per lamp per year was not based on any close analysis of accounts. But now, though the improvements in the power house are not complete, it should be possi- ble to get at the actual cost of the street lighting, and it is for the coun- ¢il to decide whether, that cost being below the amount now charged for lights, there should be any adjustment or reduction in the rates. ; The Whig is not certain that the charges has beeu added into the esti mato for the arc lights. There was a amount whith would be necessary for this large amount is not 'necessary for maintenance during - the current year thore must, of course, be a vety ma- torial difference in the results. WH there is any surplus. over and above the cost of the service the city's claims should have due consideration. There should, however, be no guess work about this. The manager of the plant shoulds submit "a carefully prepared statement of the facts and finances, As to the procedure with regard fo practically bo a yearly' one. That is, if Ald.

Tliére js only one point in the letter of Ald. Chown which calls for com- ment, The Whig has emphasized the other points referred to, and a repeti- value. A reselution of the council has been quoted to the cffect that the Bell Telephone companys pays $750 a year for "the exclusive use of streets." The word "exclusive" explains everything, and pecalls conditions which will stand investigation. ; The Whig has stated that the Bell Telephong company holds a charter Irom the federal parliament which per- mits it to enter towns and cities at will and put its poles down where it likes. It is only necessary to go back a few years and revive the clash which occurred between the city and the company, when the poles were be ing erected along Ontario street, and in front of the city hall, Objec tion was taken, and an effort was | made to prevent the company from cafrying out its plans. But it triumph. ed. It had the law on its side, and after a patley, to no effect, the work went on. : ' Some years later it was observed by Dr. Curtis that the company was al lowing some western cities a certain sum annually for the monopoly of the telephone business, and a special com- mittee of the council 'made represent.- tions which brought to the city 84 a year for a number of years. In 1905, when Dr. Bell was mayor, he was anxious that there should be -competition in this telephone business A company which is operating an in dependent plant in Peterboro wanted to come here. An American compan) had correspondence on $he subject The Bell company pressed for a re newal of its agreement 'on the ground that it proposed improvements, and did not desire, to enter upon them un- til it'had a new understanding with What did it "seek ? The use of the strects ? Nay, it had that already, and while negotigtions were pending it was pushing ils extensions in different directions, What it wanted was the "exclusive use of the streets," and the monopoly it" enjoys to-day for $750 a year. Eventually the council agreed to this, and for three reasons: (1) That the other companies were not in a Position to do business, (2) that the city did not desire to sec a new com- pany disfiguring--the streets: with its poles, and (3) that the competition would probably add to the expense of the service since the business men would have 'to be attached to both the telephone systems. » It will thus be seen what the "ex- clusive use of the streets" means in this case.
