The present cut through a central part of the town will thus be removed. The resoluâ€" tion covering this matter was as folâ€" lows :â€" The regular meeting of the town couneil onâ€"Thursday last was a comâ€" paratively brief and ~quiet sesswn, the business being transacted in busiâ€" nesslike way. _ The Mayor presided and all the councillors were present. ~Moved by Councillor Geo. 8.

D.S., that the offer of Northern Canâ€" ada Power Limited to transfer and release to the corporation of the town of Timmins all their rights to the Company‘s rightâ€"ofâ€"way known as Broadway avenue, extending from the Broadway avenue, extending from the Mountjoy line being the original town boundary between Elm and Mountjoy streets, to the east side of Pine street, upon condition that the Company be granted a permanent rightâ€"ofâ€"way to carry their Sandy Falls transmission line from the Hollinger Townsite south along the west side of Mountjoy street to Second avenue, and east along Second avenue to the east side of Pine street, and upon the further condition that the Town make appliâ€" cation to close Broadway avenue from the original Mountjoy boundary as aforesaid, to the easterly limits of the lands Cowned by the Power Co., on the north and south sides of the rightâ€" ofâ€"way in the block between Pine and Spruce streets, and consent to the title of the surface rights of the rightâ€" ofâ€"way opposite the said lands being transferred to the Company, be acâ€" cepted.

These fur hats and winter boots are for the police force, of course, and not for general distribution, as might be thoufrht from the wording of the resolution. _On motion of Councillors Eplett and Drew the police on duty on eleceâ€" tion day, Sept. 14th, 1926, as requestâ€" ed by the Chief, be given double pay for said day. _Another resolution in regard to the police was carried as follows:â€" _ There was still another resolution relative to the police. It also was carried as follows :â€" L P Oe CE EC CE Moved by Councillor Brennan and Drew, that the pay of the police offiâ€" cers be raised to $150.00 per month, same to be effective from Oct. lst, 1926, The new council, affecting openly to be concerned with economy, made the mistake early in their term of office of reducing the salary of the police officers from $150.00 to $140,00 per month. It is not ‘‘cheap‘‘ men, however, that are needed on the police force, and so there will be approval of the council‘s move to put the salaries back where they were. Any time the new council reverts to the plans and practices of the former councils they do all right, while practically every time they have made a change they have made a mess of things and usâ€" ually have had to remedy the situation created by later going back to the plan that more experienced and able councils have established The matter of the poll tax. collected here improperly and the return of the same to adjust the matter still has its sugzgestions and memories. In witness whereof read the following resolution passed at the council meeting Thursâ€" day evening :â€" On motion of Councillors Joyal and Longmore, the amount of $200.00 was passed for payment to take care of further rebates of poll tax. The usual list of accounts, payrolls, ete., and other routine matters were duly passed, as well as a number of rebates for water rates where the water had not been used.
