Mayor Goodeve threw bouquets a: himeelf and the candidates for the coun cil before elected as being couservativ ‘Dusinese men and said if elected they would conduct the affairs of the city th sume as if they were theirown. Itlookr a little like they thought they owner thecity. We would like to ask Mr Goodeve when in his bueinees career hy ever paid a man for a ‘month when hi only did eight days. work. He favored the donation of $800 to the” so-called “school of mines.’? Did Mr. Goodeve ehow that he believed it wasright to the extent of giving a single cent out of his own private fortune? We should say mot. When he voted to donate $100 of the city’s money to aend telegrams to, the Lord only knows where, he did say. ‘Well, [think this a good thing. I will contribute to the fund myself.” If Mr. Goodoye wanted to publish a $313.60 legal notice concerning his own business does anv one think he. would giveit out.to any newspajer without acking. what it - would. cost or seeing what other papers would print it for?

Then.the water company is desirous ; of being fair withithe people to the extent of telling :them: exactly what they may expect if they establih a-competitive plant. .The worst part of it.is the water company is fully-equipped:to carry into effect its threat and the city isnot. The city can notoperate a plant without the necessary water, and the $150,000 is $59,000 less than the city engineer’s eatimate as to .the.cost if.the water: cannot be taken from Rock creek, and there is . probably not a citizen of “Rossland who really be- lieves it can. — The city council isas much pledged ‘to providing the city with a lighting plant as they. are a. waterworks system.

The consumera are. paying twice as-much for light as they are for water, and the mayor acknowledged upon the platform last night that the : city waf helplees for at least five years as toa lighting plant if they did not buy outthe present..company.
