Shelby is the man; vote A special session of the City Coun- cil was held Tuesday night of last week, to consider the feasibility of submitting the question of Water, Gas and Electric light works for Butier. The only proposition sub mitted for the condideration of the! Council, was that of Dr. Betz. in which it was agreed to put in three plants at a cost to the tax-payers of fifty eight hundred dollars per year. The Council after considering the matter, by a unanimons vote decid ed to accept the Doctors ordinance and the same was put to its first At its second reading the necessary amendments will be made by the Council, and should changes made by the Council be acceptable | to the Doctor, the ordinance will be put to its final reading and passage at the first regular meeting of the Council in November. After which the ordinance will be published and submitted to avote of the people. Provided the proposition receives the sanction of the people, then Dr. Betz. proposes to put up one thou-| sand dollars without reserve as a guarantee of good faith that he will comply with the dictates of the/| rdinance. Fifty eight hundred dollars a year looks like a very stiff price for the tax payers of Butler to; pay for water and light. and in our} oO ‘opinion it will take some pretty tall financiering on the part of the coun cil to figure out just how (without materially raising the taxes) they would be able to meet the expense and keep up the actual and necessary running expences of the city govern - However, we shall loo! lat the matter ful may have t of and $12.50, worth 2: \edge the receipt jto 8. “tailor made” overe ) per cent more.
