yaIrce ilas Deen advocalting ToOor years an increase in the amount of the royâ€" alty paid to Timmins. The matier at various times has been brought to the attention of the Board of Trade, the Conservative Association and other bodies, an(}l resolutions passed favourâ€" able to a mhore equitable arrangement. At election time in several years past, The Advance has emphasized the fact that the cure for high taxation for Timmins was simply an increase in the royalty received. The growth of the town forees expenditures for health, safety and comfort. _ The growth of the mining industry is what has made the growth of the town. Further expansion by the mines will necessarily mean further growth of the town and the accompanying in-‘ crease in the expenditures of the, municipality. â€" To relieve the situaâ€" tion, the only fair remedy is that the growth of the mining industry should be accompanied by a «corresponding growth in the revenue to the town from the mines. The $35,000.00 limit should be taken off the royalty divisâ€" ion, so that as the mining industry expands the town enjoys additional revenue. ‘The Government does not incur any additional expenditure of no general objection to the.. limit placed. _ The Advance, however, at the time objected to the imposing of the $35,000.00 limit, believing that with the development of mining here the provision would soon prove burâ€" densome. It is only fair to say that at the time the $35,000.00 limit was amposed, Dr. MeInnis was one of those strongly opposing it. Dr. MceInnis and Mr. Gauthier both suggest that next year they will make a determined effort to secure an inâ€" crease in the gold royalty, so far as Timmins is concerned _ Mr. Brazeau no doubt will also favour this fair play to the municipality. The Adâ€" vance has been advocatinge for yvears tnhe candidaltes Tor the Mayoraity Ts year make reference to the handircap under which {Timmins labours through the outâ€"ofâ€"date apportionment of the gold royalty. Under the law, as it has been for years, the municipality is supposed to receive one half of the royalty, but no matter how much the half may amount to, the town is not allowed more than $35,000.00 in not exceed anyV one Veat In their election addre the candidates for the M TIMMINS SHCULD GET MORE OF GOLD ROYALTY.

The idea of the club was first started by I. 0. Upham, of the San Franâ€" eisco Golf Club, who on a $50 bet went ahead with the notion of teeing on foreign golf links across the world, one hole on every course with the same ball.

It is doubtful if any other man in the town could, or would, would not prove good Councillors for this town. While The Advance beâ€" lieves the ratepayers would make no mistake in reâ€"electing all the present members of the Council in the field, the fact remains that any six that can be chosen would be six good men and true. The ratepayer may feel that they owe ‘the present Councillors special consideration for the service given in the past, but apart from this, choice may safely be left to personal 1t may standit the lis sible f a pilace in i cival affairs THE CANDIDATES FOR f MUNICIPAL OFFICE, 1926. This year Timmins is particularly fortunate in having so many able and resnonsible citizens ready to accent any moment through the normal zgrowth of the mining industry, and so the Government should surely be conâ€" tent with a straight half of the royâ€" alty paid by the mines each year, the other half to go to the municipality. Dr. Melnnis has been urging this upâ€" on the Government during the past year or two, and there is reason to believe that in the coming year the Government will see the fairness of the request and remove the handicap of the ©#35,000.00 limit. ate msible Ccitizens rq ice in the manage affairs.
