It is interesting to note that three of the candi- dates who were responsible for instituting the enquiry were elected. Twenty-nine candidates contested the fifteen aldermanic seats avail- able. The electors indicated by a decisive major- ity that they favored having the Light Com- mission utilize the vacant offices in the new eity hall provided for them instead of the quar- ters now occupied, the vote being 2,456 for and 1,181 against. His splendid record of service to the com- munity m which he was a leading figure and in the positions of trust which he filled with such acceptance will remain as an enduring monument to his endeavors and his name will be revered as one who exemplified most worth- ily the qualities of good citizenship. i-.-.-."-.--..-.-.--.--.----------..-.

When the position of manager of the North Waterloo Farmers' Mutual Fire Insurance Company be- came vacant owing to the death of his father in 1909 he succeeded to that office and during his occupancy of the position the company con- tinued to grow and expand until to-day it is one of the leading Farmers' Mutuals of the province. His high standing in the insurance field was recently further evidenced in his elec- tion to the presidency of the Ontario Fire Un- derwriters' Association. of making and retaining friends. He was not only broad-minded in his views bot genial and approachable and his passing a the compara- tively early age of sixty-one years after a short illness was a matter of keen sorrow to his associates in the various organizations with which he was identified. In the family circle especially, where his kindliness and largeness of heart found frequent expression, will his loss be deeply mourned. The late Mr. Stauffer was also prominent- ly identified with the municipal affairs of the County, serving with characteristic efficiency and zeal. For nine years Mr. Stauffer was a member: of the Waterloo Township Council, the last two years of, which he filled the posi- tion of Reeve. . A staunch Liberal in politics he for many years actively associated himself with the Lib- eral party of the riding. being for. a number of years we president of the North Waterloo RetirFE Associatioii. . - Those who enjoyed the privilege of his ae- quaintance, and he had an especially large circle of friends, came to recognize his sterling' qualities of character and such was their con- fidenee in his integrity and business ability that he was elected to positions of responsibil- ity and honor in business and municipal life as well as in the political field. _ A SECOND ALDERMANIC ELECTION j .--.-.w---uk " ' WM um In I)“ -- your .........

According to the Weekly Bulletin of New York City's Health Department of December 20th between sixty and seventy per cent. of the typhoid cases of that city have one common factor, the eating of raw shell fish. Likewise m Chicago the oyster has been blamed for in- fecting about seventy out of ninety was of typhoid fever. Certain oyster beds on known to be in polluted water, and these oysters are forbidden to be sold. The Shh of Manchu- setta is now supervising its enter beds very carefully hut, us has been pointed out, time who eat oysters had better cook them first over800ba-Mstmdttrthiairtatitu- than last you udwlth a wry few exceptions they are giving good tsatiatatstioet. Owing to the fact that typhoid has been traced to the shellfish dug in Massachusetts, the oyster industry of that state has been seri- ously injured. The State Department of Health proposes legislation to protect the oyster beds and the public. Rules and regulations are to be laid down for the handling, transportation and sale of oysters and diggers. and dealers are all to be licensed. The State of Massachusetts pho- aides its full share of the supply of the 75,000 tons of oysters which the country consumes annually. Some enlightening facts concerning Hydro- electric finances were recently presented to the Ontario Municipal Electric Association by Sir Adam Beck which attest the success that has attended the enterprise. It is interesting to know that the people of the Province have now invested in the publicly-owned and operated Hydro enterprises $251,000,000, which is an increase in one year of nearly $10,000,000. Reserves have been ac- cumulated against this of $40,000,000, an in- crease as compared with the previous year of over $6,000,000. Sir Adam states that the total contribution to reserves will soon be $10,000,- 000 per year which will further materially strengthen the position of the Hydro. Revenues continue to expand, the revenues from the municipalities to the Commission be- ing over $16,500,000, an increase of nearly a million in a year. The revenues from the con- sumers of electric current to the municipalities are estimated at $20,000,000, an advance of nearly $3,000,000 while the net surplus which must be returned to the municipalities is $600,000 as compared with $345,588 last year. The ‘levy‘oir imaymeshrthmada it-consider- ably in excess of that of the United States. On incomes of $3,000 the Canadian levy is $40 while in the United States that amount of in- come is taxed $7.50. Here we pay $126 on .m income of $5,000; in the United States the tax is $37.50. On a $10,000 income our rate is $619.50, while in the United States it is $207.50. In the United States these taxes have been reduced on the principle that high income taxes are bad for business. It is pointed out that a considerable surplus on all large incomes goes back into industry in one form or another, viz: a factory extension, larger farm acreage or into the purchase of bonds and securities, meaning more trade and industry, and the em- ployment of more labor. _ These figures indicate in a convincing way the splendid success which is attending this great public enterprise whose uninterrupted progress is a matter of keen satisfaction to the municipalities immediately concerned and to the Province generally. f TYPHOID FEVER TRACED TO SHELLFISH H Y DRO ELECTRIC FINANCES THE LEVY ON INCOMES It l Operating under that policy last Wear. the MM~Hydm =ottuni:e. sion constructed 154 miles or rural power lines, at a cast to the Govern’ Intent at $180,000, or, roughly, a |1nue over 31.000 a mile.

MANITOBA'B LIQUOR PROFITS Manitoba‘s Liquor Commisslon reamed a ptoitt of 70 per cent. on the sale ot Scotch whiskles during the past tiscal year, according to the annual report ot the commission for 1924. On the total turnover ot $3,639.179 for the twelve months the laid down cost in Winnipeg of all goods sold was $2,270,122. Now the Government has under consideration. as a result of com tinued representations ot private members and the result. ot invetrti. gations and findings made by the Agricultural Committee, the increas- ing ot Government bonus to two- thirds of the cost ot primary and secondary lines. which would make the Government’s cost something like tMoo a mile.
