Br*

Being a by-law to authorize tlie issue of debentures of the Town of Orangevllle to the amount of $30,000 in two sets of $i:. hihi ear h to grant a bonus by way of loan of $30,(X)0 for the establish mont of a shoe factory in the Town of Orangevllle and to exempt certain property of the said factory from municipal taxation and to fix the rate for water supplied.

W. Hewet^ou Company, Limited, a bonus by way of loan of the sum of $30,000 in two sums of $15,000 each as in the said agreement provided:

And whereas in order to i)rovide the said bonus by way of loan it will be necessary to issue debentures of the said municipality for two sums of $15,000 each as herein provided (which is the amount of the debt intended to be created by this by-law) the jirocoeds of the said debentures to i)e applied for the purpose aforesaid and to no other and the said debentures shall be payable as hereinafter provided;

And whereas it is desirable to make the principal of the .said debentures payable by yearly sums during the period of twenty years after the issue of each installment being the currency of the said debentures said yearly sums being of such respective aniounls that the aggregate amount payable each year for princii)al and interest in respect of the said debt shall be as nearly as possible equal to the amount so payable in each of the other nineteen years of said period;

And whereas the total amount required hy The Mufii<i]>al Act to be raised annually during the first of such periods of twenty years for paying the first installment of the said debt and interest thereon is $1,307.77 and during the second of such periods of twenty years for paying the second installment of said debt and interest thereon is $1,307.77;

And whereas the amount of the whole rateable property of the Town of Orangeville according to the last revised assessment roll thereof is $986,095; 18

3

And whereas the amount of the existing debenture debt of the said municipality is the sum of $94,867.31 whereof no principal or interest is in arrear;

And whereas there is at present no shoe factory in the said Town of Orangeville;

Therefore the Municipal Council of the Corporation of the Town of OrangeviH^ enacts as follows:

1. That the said agreement bearing date the thirty-first day of March, 1919, made between J. W. Hewetson Company, Limited, of the first part, and The Corporation of the Town of Orangeville, ot the second part, set out in Schedule " A " hereto is hereby approved of.

WHEREAS the Corporation of the City of Brantford preambu has, by its petition, prayed for special legislation m respect of the several matters hereinafter set forth; and whereas The Municipal Act, section 101, subsection 1, pro- vides that the polls at municipal elections shall be open at every polling place at nine o'clock in the forenoon and shall be kept open until five o'clock in the afternoon of the same .day; and by subsection 2 provides that the council of the city may, by by-law passed before the 15th day of IN'ovember in any year, extend the time for keenine: open the polls until seven o'clock in the afternoon ; and whereas, owing to the largely increased number of voters upon the voters' list ol the polling subdivisions within the City of Brantford it was deemed necessary to keep the polls open until seven o'clock in the afternoon at the annual municipal elections for the year 1919; and whereas By-law TSTo. 1498 of the Corpora- tion of the Citv of Brantford was passed for such purpose on the twenty-third day of December, 1918, and by inad- vertancf such by-law was not passed before the fifteenth day of IN'ovember as renuired ; and whereas the Corporation of the City of Brantford desires power to appoint three addi- tional members to the Board of Park Management for the Citv of Brantford, so that such board will copcict of three additional members; and whereas the Corp'tntidii of the City of Brantford desires power to appoint three additional members to the Board of Health for the Citv of Brantford, so that such board shall consist of three additional members ; and whereas the cost of sanitary sewers and of storm sewers in the City of Brantford has been provided for heretofore by levying a uniform frontage rate of ten cents per lineal foot upon the property liable to be assessed therefor during Ihe period of twenty years under the provisions of chanter 48 of the Acts passed in the fifth year of the reign of His Afajesty King George the Fifth, and the said sum, owing to the increased cost of labour and materials and the increased rate of interest, has become insufficient to

provide the cost thereof; and whereas it is desirable to 36

provide a maximum rate for sanitar)' and storm sewers in the City of Brantford to be levied during a uniform period ; and whereas it is expedient to grant the prayer of said petition :

Hoisting.

(60) The o^vner or manager of a mine, where a hoisting engine is in use, shall depute some competent person or per- sons whose duty it shall be to examine at least once in each week the sheave wheels, the hoisting rope and the attach-

15

ments thereof to the drums and to the buckets, cages or skips, the brakes and depth indicators and the buckets, cages and skips and any safety catches attached thereto; the guides and hoisting compartments generally and the signalling arrange- ments ; and the external parts of the hoisting engine,

(61 ) Such owner or manager shall also depute a competent person who shall examine :

(a) at least once in each month the structure of theJi^"*"*'

hoisting ropes with a view to ascertaining thc****^*"- deterioration thereof. For the purposes of this examination the rope must be thoroughly cleansed at points to be selected by said person, who shall note any reduction in the circumference of, and the proportion of wear in, the rope;

(b) at least once a month the safety appliances of the safety

cages or other shaft conveyances, so equipped, to be tested by testing same under load conditions. Such"*^***^' test shall consist of releasing the cage suddenly, in some suitable manner, so that the safety catches shall have opportunity to grip the guides. In case the safety catches do not act satisfactorily the cage or other shaft conveyance shall not be used further for hoisting men until the safety catches have been repaired and been proved to act satisfactorily.

(62) If, on any examination, as is hereinbefore required b*J!|^|j*^*^3 there is discovered any weakness or defect by which the*' one*- safety of persons may be endangered, any such weakness or

defect shall be immediately reported to the owner or man- ager or person in charge, and until such weakness or defect is remedied the hoisting plant shall not be used.

(C)^) Such owner or manager shall keep or cause to be Machinery kept at the mine a book to be termed the Machinery Record Book to be Book, in which shall bo recorded a true report of every such **"'^'^**'' examination as is hereinbefore referred to, <3i'<rned by the person making the examination.

(04) Tn case of hoisting engines there shall bo not less Length than three rounds of roi>e upon the drum when the bucket. ?Iqui^ on cage or skip is at the lowest point in the shaft or winze i^yj} g^,P from which hoisting is eflPected.

Electrical Supply Station mean.s any building, room, or .separate space within which is located electrical supply equipment and which is accessible, as a rule, only to properly qualified persons. This includes generating stations and substations, and generator, storage battery and transformer rooms.

"UtiiiEation Utilization Equipment means equipment, devices, and

Equipment." , . . "' C . , .,. , '. ' ' . ,

connected wiring, which utilize electrical energy for mechani- cal, chemical, lighting, testing, or similar purposes and are

not a part of supply equipment.

•Voltage." Voltage or Volts means the highest effective voltage be-

tween the conductors of the circuit concerned, except that in grounded multiwire circuits, not exceeding 750 volts between outer conductors, it means the highest effective voltage between any wire of the circuif n^^<] tbo oromu],

In ungrounded, low-voltage circuirs. vuiiagc to ground means the voltage of the circuit.

"Grounded.- Grounded means connected to earth or to some extended conducting body which serves instead of earth. This ground connection may be at one or more points.

"Cut-out." Cut-out means any device, such as a fuse or circuit-

breaker, by which the electrical continuity of a conductor may be automatically broken by changes in current or voltage.

From Oakville the line will strike straight for the Hamilton Radial crossing of the Bronte Creek, from which point it is pro- posed to parallel the Hamilton Radial to Burlington. Through Burlington the line will cross through the town in the neighbour- hood of Wellington Avenue and thence direct to a crossing of the old Des Jardins Canal at Valley Inn.

Hamilton City Section:

Through the City of Hamilton it is proposed to parallel the main line of the Grand Trunk on the west side between the rail- way and the existing highway. Through Harvey Park and Dun- durn Park the line will be south of and as close to the Grand Trunk as possible, and will continue easterly, crossing Barton Street in the neighbourhood of Greig Street, and keeping on the 170

11

south side of Barton Street to the corner of Tiffany Street, where it will cross Barton and continue in a north-easterly direction across Bay, Park, Murray and McNab Streets, and James Street between Murray and Stuart Streets; thence in the same general direction across Hughson, Mary. Catharine, Ferguson and Welling- ton Streets, at which latter point it turns and follows south of Ferrie Street, across Victoria and Emerald to a point just north of the T.H. & B. Railway spur, which it parallels on the north side to Sherman Avenue. From Sherman Avenue the line bears north- easterly to the south side of the Hamilton and North-Western Railway, which it parallels to the city limits.

Hamilton-St. Catharines Section:
