Friday, July 10th, 1908. A Possible Industry. Fothhe past three or four weeks ' correspondence has been» passing, be- tvveenx the local authorities and a legal firm in Toronto who are looking for a lecation for a. client in England to es- tablish a large factory, the nature of a which has not yet been made-public, ’ but it is understood to be something not at present made in Canada. The new firm wants from eight hundred to a. thousand horse-power, which is more . than: the commissioners have at their disposal at the‘ present time, conse- > quently they could not give an immed- , iate answer to the Toronto gentlemen’s enquiry for power. or more, if necessary, can be supplied . at an extremely low figure and a. conâ€" ,tinuou-s service given, if wanted. . ‘ The commissioners are now in a posi- _ tion to make a; definite~ offer to- the enâ€" quirers, and this will be done at once. ‘ _It is too: soon; yet to- make a specu- lation as to what the outcome of the negotiations will be; but if cheap, re- liable power, ample and cheap build- ing sites, low taxes, good shipping fac- ilities and other favorable conditions area; consideration to these people, we can certainly entertain a reasonable . hope of hearing from. them again.

CLEARING TEE STREET.â€"‘AS‘ the owners: of the boathouses2 on Oak street,- below the railway bridge, failed to comply with the order of the village council for the removal of the buildings by a cer- tain date, the council, on Monday morn- ing, set men to work shoving the houses- into the river. Two or' three- were: dumped in, whereupon ' the others got busy with the removal of'theird. and the-a street is now about clear. The council's. ostensible reason for ordering the re« moval‘ of. the boathouses- was that they' were unsightly and that they would en~ danger neighboring residences in case of? fire. The owners of the boat houses: consider they have been treated very unfairly in having to] move- out while- other heat houses and other building's~ and things have been allowed to remain ,.. and about 95- per cent. of the population agrees with them. With this 95 per cent, the council has made itself very unpopu-- lar, and has got itself into a very uncle-- sirable situation, as. it will now almost: certainly, be 'éalled upon to either re» store-'theboat houses moved, or to clear' every. street‘and‘~ other public place in. the village of buildings, woodpi-l'cs-2etc._ And why not ? They are all. j'ustgas um» sightly, and just as, much, or more, of a. fire menace, as the buildings which: have been persecuted out of town ' Powles’ Corners; (“Correspondence of the Gazette)" Do n’t forget the telephone meeting: here fur the school-house on- the evening: of'Tuesday next, the 14th inst.

Fifty“ or sixty feet firom the barn a small log: building st‘ood‘,. which was occasionally. used as. a hogrpen;_and there was some dry pea straw over head. Sometimes: curiosity runs high in young minds, and; a mate-11 was stuck to see how things. would materialize. Ina very short time-‘- the fire was beyond: control; but the- wind- happened to be» from. the east,.. which saved. the barn. In the town of? Three Rivers no- fewer than three hun- dred-buildings were burned by children.-. playing with matches, and no doubt 1111-- merous tires are caused in the same way.. The frequent showers are very much; appreciated; byeverybody, whether they have tater patches or- not... The officers of theSabbath school here. have decided to have' a picnic in Mr.. J. W. Gillis’s. grove~on the 23rd of this: month. It is a difficult matter to obtain;~ a. steamboat, so a- picnic has been deâ€" cidediupon, ;. andiperhaps: next season it- may be possible-to charter an. air-ship for one day only. , Miss Cora Gillis spent part of last: week visiting around Oakwood.
