Let me illustrate a case a few days ago ; I met a man, or rather, the man met me. He was a Jittle ratty and his first salute was * well I hear vyon are going MceGowan‘s sarety for $15,000. *‘ â€"**Yes. " * Well " be says. " you may just as well hand him over the money at once and be done with, for you will have to pay it. " _ *"*Weil, ""‘ I says to him ** it Me Gowan was a poor man you might be right, just to hand it oyer to him and be done with it, but fortunately he doesn‘t happen to be that. He bas a fine property that he has sunk about $30,000 in, a property every way suitable for a large business, a business that seeins to be there for the making. And where could the difficuity arrive from an establishâ€" ment of that kind paying the interest on the money, amounting to about $700â€"with a large slice of the prinâ€" cipal added. In my bumble opinion sir, with the establishment well insured and a first mortgage upon it, we will not have to haud any over, not to the ex tent of u Aye cent piece. In leaving, that man said that 1 bhad pa, a differ ent face upon matters. With the reâ€" sult I fancy that he will support the By â€"Law. Again the remark is made that the MeGowans should not have gone into such an encerprise unless they had the money to earry it through. In going into an enterprise of this kind it is a difficult matter to count the cost and had they have done so and come to the conclusion that they were far short, the resalt might bave been that toâ€"day we wouid have nad no fine concrete dam, banking up the waters of the Saugeeu. ©There is another class who tell you that we have got the mill and why should we endorse their paper? Let themn paddle their own canoe. If they can‘t run the mill, some one else will. Sbhams on you, knowing the great work they have done, that you would turn your backs upon them and leaye them floundering in the mud. They say we have got the will. _ Well we bave got the mill a id we haven‘t. We have got a fine building, but a fine building withous the life inside of it is not a mill, and I have it from good autbority it the Byâ€"Law be defeated there will be no lifte there for how long I dont know. It may be tor years or it may be torâ€" ever. The grain, of which there is a pretty large amount, instead of being manufactured here, will be disposed ot and sent to a foreign market. Vote against it and you strangle the induetry in its intancy for a time at least. Vote for it and if carried, I am informed there are men in town who will put a few thousand into it, making it financially and other ways a strong concern,. You vote for a bonus or a loan : you carry it ; that mmoney sooner or later you haye to payâ€"you can‘t get out of it. This, gentlemen, is a different affair of course. There is a little lottery about itâ€"you may have to pay it. But the chances are a hundred to one that you don‘t. ‘The interest upon the money amounting to $700 with & part ot the principal added, to an establishment, a business such as it will be, will be but a drop in the bucket. I don‘s expect you will give them the medal, instead give tnem your vote;, by so doing you will show them that you appreciate the fine work they bave done. I |may say here that Iâ€"have no more | interest in the matter than any of the rest of you. We have too many empty houses in our town and any industry baving a tendency to fill up these houses it would be bad poiâ€" icy on our part to throw cold water apon. It is thought they won‘t emrloy many men, but when the establishâ€" ment is in fall blast, the number of men employed might astonish you. It will create a big oat market and bring farmers in that never were here before. Hoping you will all vote forthe Byâ€"law, I remain, pra 4 THE DURHAM REVIEW Th EDITO AXD WHEREAS in order to the fall completion, erection, and equipment of the said oatmeal mill and elevator, it will be necessary for the said " The McGowan Milling Company " to bor row the sum of Fifteen ’fhouuud Dolâ€" lars, which said sum of Eifteen Thouâ€" sand Dollars, shall be applied to the completion, erection and equipment of the said oatmeal mill and elevator, and not otherwise : AXD WHuEREAS the said " The Mcâ€" Gowan Milling Company " propose to issue debentures of the said Company to the amount of Fifteen Thousand Doilars for the purpose aforesaid ; and bas applied to the Municipal Council of the Corporation of the Town of Durham to guarautee the debentures of, the said "The McGowan Milling Company." to the said amount of Fifteen Thousand Dollars ; A Byâ€"Law gumntoeu:fl Debenture of * The MeGowan Milling Co:," of Axp WuerEkas the said debentures of +‘The McGowan Milling Company" will sell more readily, if guaranteed by the said Corporation of the Town of Durbham, and the said Municipal Counecil, in view of the circumstances, and the benefic lhkely to accrue to the said Town and community from the erection of the said oatmeal mill and elevator. deem it expedient to guaranâ€" tee the due payment of the said deâ€" bentures upon maturity thereof, reâ€" spectively. ts § Axp WurrEas it is desirable to issue the said deveniures st one time and to make the principal of the said debi reâ€" payable by yearly sums during the perâ€" i0d of twenty years, Lelag the curreucy of the sard debentures, said yearly +ums being of such reâ€"pective amounts that the aggregate amount payable in eacu year for principal aud interest in re spect of the said debt. shali be as nearly as possible equal to the amount so payâ€" uble in each of the uther Niueteen years ot said period, as shown in Schedule ** A " hereto annexed : Axp WurREAS the amount of the whole rateabie property of the Town ot Darham, accordiug to the last revised assessment roll thereof is $615,741.00 : Axp WurrEas the amount of the exâ€" isting debenture debt of the said Muniâ€" cipality is $52,927.41, whereof no part of the principal or interest is in arrears : Bs it thorefore enacted by the Muniâ€" cipal Council of the Corporation of the Town ol Durham, and it is hereby enâ€" acted a» follows : 1.
