We trust there maybe a large attend-

:rnrcainri full and free dist usslcn at the

public meeting tornorrow evening to rliuuur, the question of civic lighting.

The points propu' to be considered at the meeting may be briefly recited. Lei. it be admitted at the outset that a elty of lilllrinhnbitarrts cannot reosonnhly ex-

pwt to obtain artilicial light, whether

by gms or electricity nr, both, .so cheaply :isa r~it_v of four, eight- or twenty tim”

set forth in Taxpayers letter in another; ruiunrni. The present value of gm pipes I lnid under ground forty or Mty .rgonnd now rusted and leaking badly: rnnift be far .short of the original cost..
