First and (General Mortgage Bonds. The bonds are very attractive from thevinvestors‘ standâ€" point, PRESIDENT OF BEAVER TO SEEK REâ€"ELECTION In the advertisement elsewhere in this issue of the Nesbitt, Thomson and Co. offering Canada Qtedmshlp Lines 6 per cent First and General HOLLINGER NOT TO BLAME FOR POLL TAX REDUCTIONS .’ASmne annoyance has been caused to men at the Hollinger Mine through deductions from their wages for the new town poll tax. It is only fair to. state that the Hollinger is in no way to blame for this deduction. The new town council some time ago passed a byâ€"law to collect this tax, The Provincial law gives the council this authority and further the law provides that the employer must take this tax from the payroll when reâ€" quested to do so. The mine has no option in the matter.~ The law makes it compulsory for the mine offee to assume this disagreeable work. The new poll tax has caused conâ€" siderable annoyance, being deducted from propertyâ€"holders as well as inâ€" come tax payers. In the township â€"of Tisdale the tax is collected from inâ€" come tax payers who are acquainted with the fact that the amount is creâ€" dited on their income tax to the townâ€" ship. In the township propertyâ€"holâ€" ders are not put under this tax <at all. There is an opinion here that the collectiqn from property holders is not regular. However, as noted beâ€" before the mine has no option in the matter, simply being required by law to deduct the amount from the list submitted by the town. It is underâ€" stood that some of those who feel that they have been imporperly taxed in this way are taking legal advice in the matter and may test out the legalâ€" ity of #the proceedings in the courts. In answer to the argument that the $5.00 would be allowed on the regular property taxes on his residence one man said, with some show of reason: Mr. F. L. Culver, president of Beaâ€" ver Consolidated Mines, who stated last weéek that he would not be a canâ€" didate for reâ€"election at the forthâ€" coming annual meeting, announced on Monday of this week, according to a Toronto newspaper, that he had reâ€" considered his decision and would enâ€" ter the ring.‘ In a statement yesterâ€" day, Mr. Culver stated that he will advocate a policy for the distribution of Beaver‘s assets. Beaver has in its treasury â€" approximately _ 1,200,000 shares of the common stock and 500,â€" 000 shares of the perferred stock of Kirkland Lake Gold Mining Comâ€" pay. There has been an agitation aâ€" mong some of the Beaver shareholders for the distributing of these . assets and talk has been heard on the street of the formation of a shareholders‘ committee to try and bring this aâ€" bout. Present market malue of Beaâ€" ver‘s assets is about $2,000,000. ‘‘Why should I be one of the few paying any taxes at all this year?‘‘ This seems to be another case of unâ€" necessary â€" annoyance and â€" illâ€"will created by the council‘s silly desire to do something different from what was done by previous councils. The new council will find its only plain sailing is when it follows the preceâ€" dents of former councils in such matâ€" ters. All these things have been stuâ€" died out before. The new council is not fishing up somthing new, but simâ€" ply foisting forward something that exncrience has shown to work poorly. HON. RAYMOND D. MORAND M.D. GOUNCIL ORDERS TAXL/ suitoinG to B Mr. G,. N. Ross App{'mted Auditor The regular meeting of the town council was held on Thursday evening last with the Mayor in the chair and all the councillors present. _ There were many interesting items of busiâ€" ness, and at least one item that while not business was of, some interest. This item was a dissertation by the Mayor in regard,.to The Advance. The Mayor apparently does not love The Advance, but who cares? Mayor found fault with The Advance for m'frmv ihe counell to take some action in re; ’md to the power and light franâ€" chise so that the people will not have to continue paying a higher rate than necessary for lights, The Mayor also seemed to be annoyed because The Advance will not confine its sources of information to the soâ€"called * offiâ€" cial‘‘ lines that please the council. The Advance has no interests to serve but those of the public, and is content so ldng asâ€" its information is correct. The power and light question should be dealt with by the council. _ _ The Advance will not be content with the question being used in any other way than the _;mterests of the people.
