Orontplon spoke for the objecting citizens, slating that the franchises should be held by the citizens as they were anxious to Incorporate, He quoted the Cumberland situation, where lhe company [ collects $ 10,700 annually from the I citizens, and the cost was $2,500, leaving a profit of **W,200, The Klectric Light Company wascapital- J i/.ed at $50,000 and paid a dividend [of 17 percent, [f Courtenay owned these utiltiestlie rale of taxation 1 .would be very low. Colin Campbell said we should [Incorporate at once, as there was about 1000 acres of hind to be taken in which was worth an average of $1,000 per acre. Some laughed at this, but it is true nevertheless. Several corners have been sold lately at $1,250, two are held at $5,000, and, there isn't a lot inside the proposed district that can be bought for less than $250, and there is nu average of 8 lots to the acre. Mr. McPhee said Cumberland was pout, and had large schools to keep up nnd could not liny the companies out. Wouldn't it be better lor all to join bauds and lu- corporote at once, nml build the Water and Electric Light works for Courtenay. He was prepared to lend money aud would be a large user of water, but would oppose to ih: utmost the efforts of any private company to secure control of these franchises, Dr, Millard said Mr. McPhee and others in the lower part of the town were opposed to the company because they had plenty of water for their lawns and baths, while those higher up had none, except what they got out of their wells.

Allan, Secretary. Mr. McPhee said be sympathised with those higher up as they doubtless did not have as much water as thoie on the lower level. Had a lot of property here and would be willing to take water and pay for it, and wanted to know what about the chemical engine. Dr Millard said there would lie no dividends tor two or three years and that the company would he obliged to sell to the town at an advance of 30 per cent on cost, as fixed by arbitration, and that they had a supply of ,5 cubic feet per second, which would supply a city of 15,000. Mr, I larrisou said that arbitrators usually placed the very highst value possible on anything thev could. Mr llodsou corroborated him, aud said the stream which the company proposed taking passed through his farm, and through his neighbors' as well, and they needed the water just as badly as did Courtenay, aud didn't intend lo let the company have it if at all possible. A motion was passed to the effect that this meeting was opposed to allowing the company to get the water record, and supplying Courtenay with water and light. Mr. Fechner was very sorry to see the people putting them down as a lot of crooks and grafters; said, they wanted everyone to take stock in the company. Dr. Millard said nothing would hurt Courtenay more than an outbreak of fever, which might occur if we did not secure a supply of pure water, Mr. McPhee said he was still of the opinion that we should incorporate at once and build our own water works and electric light plant. We only had to have 100 male citizens who owned 50 per cent of the value of the taxable property in order to do so. At this stage the company got together and Mr. Fechner said that all they wanted was water, and proposed that all citizens take stock ard sell it at par to the city when incorporated.

Every parent of a growing girl and every young woman who looks after herself, should be constantly on the watch for symptoms of Impoverished blood.

Mr. Bryan has been much in demand by religious organizations since he took office, so far he has made no promises, but he, as wi 11 as the President and Vice-President, are active church members, and any of them can aud will preach a sermoil, lead a prayer meeting or teach a Bible class. Religion is not only the moral link that binds man closer with his Ood, but with his fcllowman and it speaks well for any nation when it lias such christian gentlemen at the head of its afiirs. It has been said that one's personal value depends upon their possession of religion. One is worth to society what they are capable of imparting and tho man whose aims are low who has in his heart no adoration of God, whose will is not subordinate to the supreme will, cannot be worth very much to himself or to society. There is every reason in a Christian country why all of our public servants should stand for Christianity, and we are glad these men are making their influence as potential for good as possible.
