At a meeting of the city council
Tuesday niht, an ordinance was in
troduced and referred to the committee
on ordinances, grunting to J. L.
Cowan, L. Foley and Frank O'Ncil a
franchise for tll'teeu years for the es
tablishaient of an electric plant in our
midst. From hearing the ordinance
read, v.e believe that it means fair play
to the city and to the company. It
Imposes certain conditions upou the
three gentlemen that will insure to us
good lights ut tlie least Inconvenience
and at reasonable prices. (
It is a step ill tlie right direction. It
means "progress!" It will be the ma
jority birthday of Lebanon, when she
ceases to.be u child and will enter upon
her woman's estate.
By. oil means let the franchise be
grouted, with proper restrictions, and
let the throe gentlemen, who show so
much public spirit, be encouraged.
We are going ahead and we need this
Improvement. The paper mill will
soon be In fuli operation. The canal
will ere long bring to our very doors
the power for other and greater im
provements: Flouring mills, a long
felt want, will come In time. So will
other manufacturing enterprises. Let
tho good work go on.
