Councillor J. E. Boyle of Tisdale pointed out that the Township was spending money to keep the main road between town and South End open. He thought the Town should coâ€"operâ€" ate in sharing the expense at least of the portion inside the town. The Town Council readily agreed, a motion being duly passed to cover the point. ‘ ‘The regular meeting of Timmins Town Council was held on Monday afâ€" ternoon with the Mayor, Dr. J.A. Mc Innis, presiding, and €ouncillors J. H. Bacon, E. L. Longmore, L. S. Newton, F. M. Wallingford, J. E. Sullivan and J. E. Morin present. There were two principal items of business,â€"the hearing of Reeve Galâ€" lagher of Tisdale and Councillors St. Paul and Boyle on some matters of mutual interest to the Town and Town ship, and the consideration of the Fire and Light Committee‘s report favourâ€" ing increased equipment necessary for the fire department. Reeve Gallagher said in brief that while he had no particular objection to Moneta going in with the town if the people there so desired, but in the interests of fair play he would not like to see them coerced. The question he asked of the Tinmins Council was: In case of Moneta not being annexed to the town, could the people of Moâ€" neta depend on being able to secure water from Timmins if the town had a surplus of water? If the Council took the attitude that they could not get the water unless they came in with the town it would amount to coercion. â€" In reply to the Reeve, Mayor Mc Innis pointed ouwt thaiif Moneta jornâ€" ed the town that section would naâ€" turally receive a water supply at the earliest possible time. (Moneta had applied for annexation and he thought the people desired it, unless they were affected by a propaganda that fhe thought was being used against it. The Town was making nothing by the anâ€" nexation,â€"indeed, would likely ‘be a loser financially for a year or two if Moneta were taken in. The Town‘s interest, however, laid in râ€"â€"zuoving the fire menace, health danger. ete. There was no inténtion to use any form of envercion and he could see no reason why the Town should refuse water to Moneta if Timmins had a surplus u. water for sale but of course there were other things that must be considered. Councillor Newton was agamst any form of eoercion, but he felt that in any case the matter of water supply should be contingent upon the providâ€" ing of adequate fire protection msâ€" thods. he might be the one accused of using propaganda against the proposed anâ€" nexation. He thought it would be against the interests of (Moneta. His reason for this was that he believed that in a very short time ‘Tisqaauie would have a number of producing mines paying so much royalty that Moneta and other parts would the able to get much without added taxation. He wanted ‘Moneta to share in the prosperity he saw coming soon for the Township. iHe also referred to the fact that the petition had not ‘been a proper one, lacking the proper proporâ€" law duly appointed assessor for the year at a salary of $700.00. Oflicer ‘M. Sally was appointed an officer for the enforcemeent of the CO.r:A. He wanted ‘Moneta to share in the prosperity he saw coming soon for the Township. iHe also referred to the fact that the petition had not ‘been a proper one, lacking the proper proporâ€" tion of voters. He undertsood that a new petition to replace the old one was using names on the old one withâ€" out the formality of securing the signatures a second time. He thought this was not right, and the Timmins Council agreed with him in this. Other members of Timmins Council expressed similar views to those of the Mayor in the matter of the annexation and water supply.

The score gives no indication of the fast play, the score being largely due to Corbould‘s offâ€"night in the second period when he could not stop either closeâ€"ins or long shots, letting no less than six goals by in this period,â€"two by ‘McQGuire, two by Behan, and one sach by Cameron and Campbell.

It was decided not to follow the custom of past years and have a banquet together with the annual meeting. ‘The general feeling of the meetinge was that the holding of the banquet at the same time as the annual meeting made the gathering alâ€" together too late and also had a tenâ€" deney to sidetrack the business of the evening. Accordingly this year the anâ€" nual meeting proper will be held on Monday evening next for the election of officers, etce., and then later on a banquet will be held with a number of special features. For the annual meetâ€" ing tce ‘scretary promises to have a report that will show a surprising amount .of good work done by the Board during the year, despite the fact that meetings have not been very regular. All interested in the busiâ€" ness and general welfare of the town should attend the anunual meeting of the Board of Trade next ‘Monday even ing. The Board of Trade can do a great deal for Timmins, but to ‘have the maximum of usefulness it must have all the people behind it and ready to assist and coâ€"operate.
