There are other questions where coâ€" operation will prove equally advarnâ€" tageous for all concerned. The gold royalty is mentioned simply as an exâ€" ample. The Town of Timmins has shown appreciation for public serâ€" vices given.

Johnson Passed . Away at Dome Hospital from Pneumonia, After \ Brief Iliness. The new Council will face a great many serious problems. They know they have the approval of the rateâ€" payers. If to this is added the fact that they are constantly made to feel that they have also the full coâ€" operaâ€" tion of the people for the advanceâ€" ment of the interests of the Town, then surely 1926 will prove the best year in the history of Timmins. Forâ€" cetting thoughtless criticism, and faultâ€"finding without a knowledge of the facts, the people can give a moral support to the authorities that will assure the best success for the inâ€" terests of the municipality. The peoâ€" ple have made their choice, now let the people back their choice to the limit! Among the questions to be taken up by next year‘s Council will be the matter of securing a larger share for the Town of the gold royalty. _ For this, a united people, wholeheartedly backing up the Mayor and Council and other authorities, can practically assure success to the efforts to secure a fair return in this matter for the Town.
