ferries, etc and yet pays a one half higher rate than the Railway. The companies and Brms using the City water are large

tax-payers, while the Railway, being a

wcdid so from the neutral sl-andpoint fedeml Government concern Wye no

20 F1' 1 -jl ' ~ of n. disinterested partyand reached the

taxes. These are facts and conditions which may fairly be taken into account. On the other hand it may be that the meter rate of 30 cents charged to various consumers is too high. The Railway contention is that the average consumer who is charged a. fiat rate really pays no more that 10`cents per thousand gallons.

It appears that the original contract

between the Water Commissioners and

the Railway was made in November 1880, to run for tive years, and was based on an estimated consumption not to exceed 5,000 gallons daily. This contract was continued to 1001 when the rate was raised to $750 yearly, nnd in 1904 this was increased to $1.000. On July first 1005

the miyer was put in and for the five months ending with November- the

Railway was charged witha consump- tion of over 14,000 gallons n day, or $447. 71 for the five months. It is understood that the Iteilway was willing to continue at $1,000 a year, while the charge for the five months extended, would fora

year amount to $1,075. But the oper- ation of the Murray Harbor Branch must largely increase the consumption of water by the Railway.

Of course the main olriect ot selling by

meter, whether it be gas, electric light, or water, is that consumers shall pay in pro- portion to what they use, and that thc large wnstage which is inevitable under a

ilatrato rate__`may_ be avoided. In regard to the cost oflsiipplying water, the inter- est on the oi-ii;fh,iiic`Qs't of the plant, the annual depreciation, the contributions to

the sinking fund, together with repairs, maintenance. cost of pumping, collecting,

&c all have to' be taken into account.

\Ve are still of the opinion before ex- pressed that the Riillway and the Water Commissioners are not so far apart but that an agreement ought to he reached

so as to avoid the necessity of the City losingarzcodcustonier and of the Rall-

wny putting ina, water supply system of its own. 'l‘|§‘§" City' water supply is omindant for bon. nie city and the

Railway,'and it seems unnecessary and wasteful to provide another and inde- pendent supply under the circumstances.

It would he much better for the Railway authorities and the Water Commissioners to adjust or even compromise their differ- ences, where the margin between them

is no greater than at present exists.

D0 YOU DESIRE _

FREE DELIVERY ?

_-.__;.i_1..___.

Free delivery of letters by carriers appointed and. paid by

the Government is in operation in » many cities of Canada. There is reason to believe that the system may be adopted here if the people express their desire for it.

WHAT 1-*REE DELIVFRY MEANS.

Free delivery means that responsible carriers, wearing

uniform, and sworn to the faithful discharge of their duties shall after the arrival andsorting of each mail at the Post Oflice take the letters received and deiiverthem to the persons addressed at their homes or places of business. The city would be divided into, say four districts. with a -car- rier for each district. He would make his rounds iwlcea day, and if there was a letter for you at the Post Oflice would take it to you. Arrived at your house

'he would ring or knock-two short rings or two sharp

knocks. You would know by the knock or ring that it was the welcome postman-and the letter or parcel would be left. If you had a letter to'send out you would hand it to him and he would post it for you. But he would call only at houses or places of business where he had mall matter to deliver.

These privileces would he, for those on the carriers’ lists.

Any persons who chose could still receive their letters at the Post Oilice as they now do. The carrier service would not deliver the newspapers printed in the city. Letters posted in the city addressed toother persons in the city would not be delivered by the carriers unless prepaid by a two cent stamp instead of one cent as now. 'This is the only additional charge in connection with the free delivery system.

in order to learn the views of our citizens on this ques-

tion we invite all readers of The Guardian residing in the City tn fill out and- return to this oilice the enclosed coupon, showing whether they are in favor of free delivery or against it. Mark an X in the square under the words "For Free Delivery,” or in the square under the words “Against Free Delivery", give the street on which you reside. sign your name and return to Guardian Oilice.
