the best he can do, as every person cannot
be served in this particular first. Now let
us look at the advantage of a Mar ket
House. You can go there IN the morning,
saw three days in the week; step up to
the butcher and find everything nice
and neat; the friendly farmer
is there; and there you find
everything in good order and
the other departments for trade equally
we'll conditioned. Besides this it would
concentrate this business to one point,
which in itself is matter too important
to overlook, as everyone would know
precisely where to go to get desired
article in that line. And again 1t Will
encourage farmers to bring their pro-
duce here, which otherwise reach other
places. And thus by our not having the
desired facilities we are deprived of
! large proportion of the country produce,
which is, at present. afforded better adj
vantages at other places for Its disposal
by the producer. Perhaps some persons
will say, Oh! such an institution will De
too expensive, it will cost the city too
much. Yes you said that when the
water works were proposed, but would
YOU to-day if the city authorizes were to
step up and offer you in cash all the
money YOU have thus far expended and
tell YOU hereafter they would give You
the S. or so which you pay per year II
YOU would do without it, you would not
| for an instant listen to sucn proposal,
| but instead say | would rather give
double the amount than be deprived OF
its use. So it would be with the market
house after you once have it you cOuldn / do
without it, Now US to its probable cost.
! Men who seem to know estimate it, for
plain column, fiat roof, brick paved
market house, $40 feet long, at from five
to ten thousand dollars. And now what
would this investment pay the city!
! Surprising three market mornings each
week, at fair estimate would average
SIS per week, which estimate is certain
" low enough, making $500 per month,
or $1,000 per year. We ask, could this
amount of money be invested more adj
vantageously, waving the necessity
and convenience of such an institution
in the city of Bellarc? 1t certainly
could not As to the situation,
there is no position more favorable orac-
ccssiblc from every part of our city than
our "lentral Square. The market
house could be- built across the south
end. fronting Fourth street or Central
Avenue. The street railway will pass
near ii, atiording faclitic- topcr,onS from
Gravel Hill, and taking al III all there
is nothing more needed or wished for
than Il market house. This is Il matter
that should engage the attention Of our
city council, and We PREDICT that if the
people of Bcllairc are put i'll possession
of market house they will never regret
it. Let others speak on this matter.
