'flic's tine pcoi-le had been endeav- iuj;, by, the same methods, to do to ,the people of Toronto what they luive be 11 trying to do to the people of l'ornie ever since it was incorporated as a city, .lust before that incorporation look place, the representative of George A. Cox', Robert .1 utility, K. It. Wood, Sir, Henry l'cl- latl, and oilu-rs, told the people of Keniij at a meeting of the board of trade held in the lire hall that if the City'cf J-'cniic- at any time desired to take over his company's water plant, Unit the company .would not lake any advantage of the'city by demanding, the " legally authorized bonus, but would turn it over to the city at its value. The 'manager has taken . advantage of 'every • legal technicality, and .in every other way lias obstructed the will of the' people of the city in, their efforts to'establish their own si stem, rtiu.siiig,-' to' set-a. price-upon his plant when asked to do-1 so. These same people are interested .in two companies holding franchises in Toronto, one for operating a city el- - I'ctric light and power plant, the other to transmit, power from Niagara . 1'alls.'" They are more heavily interested ■ in the Niagara"" Transmission Coinpaiiv than in "the city "light, and- power company, and as directors in - tie city cimpauy, they made'a bar- . gain ivii.li themselves ,as the Niagara Company .lo supply the city coinpauy wilh power at "a Very high rate. Hy relerring to, an'editorial taken from the Toronto.

The electors voted as, they did, not because they liked JMr. ,l,in- d-Ja more, but' because they liked Mr. Coatsworih less, iiud their feeling was effectually voiced by Ihe- de- Teal of the three civic by-laws—in the case of the Yonge sired bridge, ,,in- di-ed, its,cc nlciiuiUioii!; rejection', the mayor must,.realize thai his renewed 1 have to tliiink ]*sychincformy present henlth.

Hut, as is always the case, their ineshaustibli 'appetite for gain has brought defeat upon themselves, as is shown by'the very large vote by which the city has authorized the council to contract with tlie Provincial .Government foi power, and ligh't at a greatly reduced rate. The Worl'd article »ay* -in part; "Wlml'is specially gratifying is the so,ere condemnation pronounced.. up- r.n the underhand methods of the cl- eari'c i'in'g,''which has'laile'd. to -in- llutiKC the,, electors lo any material extent, lii'fact, the ring has entirely over-reached itself, and' has . been taught, with much needed point, .that ;'t'lii.'giimi: of trickery and deceit is not a safe one to play in. these days.

''The election demonstrates the increasing favor, with 'which public ownership and operation of the civic franchises is regarded by the people It serves another notice on the franchise-holding corporations that' the day of their power is rapidly passing away, and that they wijl be held to strict account for the administration,' of tlie public 'services entrusted' to them. ■ If Mayor Coatswortli desires to re-establish himself in the confidence of his fellow citizens, .he must adopt a different policy and set himself res'.lulely to maintain- the public rights conferred by the contracts under which the franchise-holding corporations held their-'-'privileges. The citizens have shown, in a mauiK-r ' whicli cannot be ignored, their, determination thai the companies be compelled to act up to llu- full .measure• of their" obligations. A feeling is iinipieslionablv abroad that th.'re has been too much truckling on the part of the city' council ,to the masterful ,mcn-who"arc manipulating the corporation influence to llie prejudice of the just claims of the people.

Title | The Fernie Ledger |
Publisher | Fernie, B.C. : D. V. Mott and G. G. Meikle |
Date Issued | 1907-01-12 |
Description | The Nakusp Ledge was published in Nakusp, in the Central Kootenay region of southeastern British Columbia, from October 1893 to December 1894. The paper was subsequently published as the Ledge both in New Denver, from December 1894 to December 1904, and in Fernie, from January to August 1905. The Ledge was published by Robert Thornton Lowery, a prolific newspaper publisher, editor, and printer who was also widely acclaimed for his skill as a writer. After moving to Fernie, the paper continued to be published under variant titles, including the Fernie Ledger and the District Ledger, from August 1905 to August 1919. |
