Fifty-year franchise! Fifty years! A franchise that shall hold good for two and one-half generations! That shall hold good in spite of all co-operative tendencles on the part ot a more enlightened citizen- J. N. CAMPION, 2ditor of The t ship! There are two points of view in this matter. One the “material interest” of the electric light company, the other the “‘ma- terlal interest” of the city and its citizens. The light company is entitled to take the former and the citizens and their represent- atives are In duty bound to take the latter. It that be done the greater s bound to have precedence and I have no fear as to the outcome. But there Is often the danger of one or both of two intruders stepping in. First, the personal “materfal interest” on the part of one or more of a city's officials, and also the embracing by some citizens or thelr representatives of that point of view which exclusively belongs to the light com- pary. Five years is a sensible franchise. | Ten years is a long franchise at this | Juncture. Over that fs preposterous and | unthinkable.
