.Is it for the best? That Is tho ques
tion which the city council has wrest
led with for the lost few days and
which will bo settled definitely at the
regular meeting noxt Mondnv evening.
Shall the city be lighted with elec
tricity? Parties hare been here this
week and proposed to the city council
to put in a $12,000 electric plant and
lurnlsn the city ten arc ligats tor
$1,200 per year for so many rears. The
council are muchly tempted to acenpt
tho offer, tho particulars of which of
course we have not extended into. The
property owners and tajc-payors are
of course to be consulted, they having
tho more interest at stake. But as
tho charter limit for city taxes 10
mills has been reached, this added
expense will not raise taxes and tbcre-
loro win not be uoticcd, lue only dif
ference is this added expanse will de
lay the payment of the city's indebted
ness just so much longer and of course
taxes will remain as tbey are at pres
ent until the town is out of debt.
However, as Medford claims to bi
the hub of tho valley is it not timo she
was taking on somewhat more of a
metropolitan air? i There is no deny
ing that improvements are at all times
beneficial, and. especially at this dull
season of tho year. It would without
a doubt be a great feather in tho city's
cap if she could out inform the world
that improvements within her limits
are the order of the day even in the
dullest season. Streets well lighted
take on an attractive air and -while
serving as a good drawing card tor cap
ital, they enhance the value of property.
Is it for the best?
