When Mr. T. F. King was a member of the Town ‘Coun cil he advocated the purchase of town scales and the adoption of a local Weights and Measures byâ€"law to cover the situation. From Mr. King‘s efforts Byâ€"law No. 200 came into foree and effect. This Ibyâ€"law appointed the Fire Ohief as Inspector of Weights and Measures for the Town with full authority to enforee the provisions of the byâ€"law for the advantage of the pneople. Under the provisions of the werge ‘*Therefore, be it resolved that we, the members of Poreupine Mine Work ers‘ Union, eall upon the powersâ€"thatâ€" be for the strict enforcement of all laws pertaining to the vending of wood and coal, and if these be not adequate that byâ€"laws be passed comâ€" pelling all vendors of woous and coal to have each load weighed or sealed by parties authorized to do so before ofâ€" fering same for sale to the public, and that they shall present to purdhaser an official certificate showing correct weight or measure; and ** Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Mayor of the Town of Timmins, to the Reeve of the Township of Tisdale, to the local press for publication, and that a copy ibe spread on the minutes of this meeting."‘‘ ind juestin meeting of the ‘Miners: Union, with the request that the reâ€" solution Ibe published in full:â€" **Whereas, the fuel question is of vital interest to the wage worker ot this district; and ‘* Whereas, at the present time there is nmno law (or if on the books, it is not enforced) to compel vendors of wood and coal to have their loads sceaieqd or weighed ; and ‘*Whereas, there is general comâ€" plaint of short weight and measure, with the consequent hardship upon the workers, IGHING AND MEASURING O0F ALL COAL AND WOOD SOLD jOwWin 11 T 911 ht i | n V E DL > ady »\‘hCI’E Advance has recerved the £f resolution ive 284,565.21 443,428.83 6.59% t wo (ult omer an Cline at A TreceLa no â€"Miners W € than Robt LeHeup, chairman; Mrs. D.
