Tu< rntou'a burden has become so heavy that there ia no economy and very h:ile satisfaction iu using electric- ity at the price. Cookttown and Bradfotd are groaning and Beetou and Tottenham are paying an extortioner's price, Lately it haa been stated in town that Hydro was not paying its way, so the Herald went en the Chairman of the utilities commission, Mr. Js. Whiteside, sud asked him if Hydro here was running behind. " Yes, Hydro is running be- hind," he saii. Mr. Whiteiirie would not say much, and the Herald did uot press him, knowing that, .- well as having the towns it serves by the throat Hydio i- -null-- an imperious altitude towards anyone who dares criticize it. Sic. \Vhiteside said there were 100 huuses iu town that were not using any current. He seemed to think they could be induced to take the juice. When it was suggested to him that if the extrava- gant wiring regulation! were relaxed so that the people might wire within their mean?, the'sefvices might be extended, Mr. Whctestde would not crinmit him- -f.t. Some time aijo an intimation was given iu these columns that the South Simcoe towns were- due for a raise in rates. With a privately owned plant 12c per kilowatt hour was the price. Hydro wa goin? to greatly reduce that. At present the front street is paying 12c per kilowatt honr. Can it be that Hydro is going to charge more for current than we paid a private owner I Mr. Whiteside was asked. " \Vo cin't do anything ; it's tha hydro dots it all," was what he answered iu etfect. And he was right | because the Hydro has us tied up body and soul and bleeds us at will to meet its annual salary bill of 89,027, 03'J. 75. citizen of Proton Station, and brother of very pleasant evening was spent Mr. Joseph BUkely of town, passed away Tuesday morning of persistent A.

Taking a witness along he went out and interviewed the delinquent, with the result that he was mat witti a point blank refusal to pay any more ts.ies. Upon an invitation to go to the stable and show hia horses the gentleman aei/ed a stick and stood iu tha door of the stable, threatening to spread on the ground the btains of any man who tried to enter. In fact he raieed the stick preparatory to digesting the unstable. Tha latter pull ed his gan, when Mr. Fighting Man apparently thought better of it and drop. ped his stick. In a twinkling tha stick was kicked from his hand and a pair of handcuffs grautd his wrists. Ue called for help but there was no response.
