The members of the Utilities Commission realize that = the new electric power rates will have to be adjusted. They do not expect the power users to pay the amounts "prescribed" in the bills being issued, as the charges under the new systein are out of all reason. The Whig has spoken with members of the Commission, who 'intimate that as soon as they have all the bills of pow- er customers before them they will be able to adjust the rates. The bills so far issued for July show' that power users are be- ing charged from 200 to 400 per cent. more than they paid for the same month a year ago. % <« o> GB be bb bdo dle ded de ob PP Letters to the Editor | A Kind Word For "Poor Baptiste Kingston, Sept. 1.-- (To the E ter): '*'Poor Baptiste" is for perhaps] the 150th time incarcerated at the publie expense in Castle Corbett.

Christmas, reéruiting! men for service with the 59th Bat-| talion, when asked for his opinion on recruiting gave the Whig the fol- lowing statement "While recruiting during the past few days for the 59th has been ac- tive, it is noticeable that Kingston men while in the majority are not enlisting as should be their duty. From the number of men loitering around the streets without any vis- ible means of support, it would ap- pear that their place is over in Bar riefield doing their, little bit for the country, instead of posing In the eyes of their wives, family, sweét- hearts and friends as a little worse than a fifth rate circus exhibit. The country needs all the soldiers pos- sible, and to those who enlist wiil accrue the honor, also the everlast ing gratitude of the generation who wants to go but are toe old, and the generation who lcok with envious eyes on the men in uniform but are too young to go."
