He intends to replace the money again.:` but the meagre salary that drove him. to the necessity of taking the money, renders him unable to return it. Con- cealment follows, and th8 end is rain and dishonor. g A T1 4dm f Dos. Not Necessarily imply 1215: we 391;, ; It'll: fhnlnn no 4.1.- m_.IL__. A Mr. Editor,` `the above is a statement of things applicable to many munici- palities. What_gain_is. to pi-ate about the duty of a Treasurer to live? within `his means, {when the means are so small thatlto live within them is. im- possible I ` Giveahim means he can live within and do not require a man to work` miracles.` Defaulhers and debt- ors generally are not commonly the men who get fair pay for work performed. In `THE ADVANCE of the 27 th April there appeared an article signed Rate-t payer," the writer of which seems very anxious to take such a - meaning out of my former letter as would allow him to make contemptiblereferences to the Treasurer of Innisl. He compares the salary of the Clerk" and _ Treasurer with the salaries of the Teachers of Innil. `Were there large sums of money belonging to a corporation con- venient to their hands there might be some -defaulting teachers in the Town ship of I Innisl. I ;I As *4-R1tepayer"has introduced the subject of teachers, I might give him an example of what a teacher may, be guilty of. T Over twenty years ago when I was ; quite a boy, there came to the town of lBarrie two men to write for Second Class Certicates. These two fellows had been, I think. studying together for some time while they were engaged in teaching. They eat in adjoining seats and succeeded in copying as they had previously intended. One of them, if not both, -passed. The one who I know passed, tanghtvfor many years on the certicate thus dishonor ably obtained. When I last heard of him he was denouncing for dishonesty and incompetence, a man immeaspre ably his superior. _ ' in ' Let Ratepayer remember-_ that every Vpo_aiti`on ha` its own" peculiar temptations, and that he who publicly and oatentctiouely denounces others for wrong doing in public affairs, and call; vociferoosly for their pnniahmentp` is seldom 3 men to bevtrueted.
