ELECTRIC LIGHTS.‘
Since it seems to be rather an ex..
pensive and coubtful undertaking to ]
get a flow of artesian water, and the
fact that it will have to be pumped,
it is now bewng talked generally
talked that it would be better to at
once irnstall an electric plant in con
nection with the well, The same
machinery and labor would run the
lights that it would take to do the
pumping. In the opinion of all
whom we have heard express them
selves, it is the most popular thing
for council to do, and now that the
spirit of progress seems to be taking
100 t amoug our citizens, wouldn't itl
be wise to go a step farther? The
town will have ta borro¥ money to
put in the proposed improvements,

plete the work under way, as well as
