The Tisdale township council met on Monday evering with the reeve and all the councillors present. The session was lengthy but was mostly tayzen up in discussion over rock, water rates and charity. ROGK, WATER RATES, RELIEF, FORMER SOUTH PORCUPINE BEFORE TISDALE GOUNGIL â€" HOGKEY PLAYER INJURED RBusy Regular Session of the Township Council Monday Night. Much Disâ€" cussion About Rock Cuts for Water Services at Schuâ€" macher. __Mr. R. Langdon was present on beâ€" nalf of a taxation appeal for a widow living out of town. They are to be let stand against the property. A man on Golden avenue said he couldn‘t pay his full water connection now so was allowed to pay half and the remainder later. » i l i l \ The next man from Schumacher g)aid $110 toward his water connection and rates. Then came a series of discussions on rock, rock, rock. Appellants seemed to think the reeve and councillors had hearts of rock. The council seemed to think the appellants had heads wholly composed of material resembling rock. Appellants claimed no rock existed in their trenches. Contractors and enâ€" gineer‘s reports .showed rock there. Most of the trouble seemed to centre around Railroad street in Schumacher. That particular spot has proven the rocky road to Dublin for Tisdale counâ€" cil. If you walk upr Railroad street it rather looks that way too. Still acâ€" cording to what our ear taketh in, contractors must have put the water and sewer pipes in sand gullies, through breaks in the rock, where none of it had to be removed and at times even laid it on the surface of the earth and then filled in over it. The clerk exâ€" plained that in one of the cases apâ€" pealed the contractors had come in to ee about it and had told them in the townsmp office that it would not do to fill in with what they had taken out because of the rock in it; the pipes would freeze; so a team had been hirâ€" ed to haul earth for filling in, as in all that rockless surrounding there was not enough earth to be got for a proâ€" iper fill. . some of these people want to dig out their trenches and find if there ever was any rotk there. A resident was again present from the lower part of Strachan avenue. In the meantime it was ascertained by the engineer that a sewer could be placed â€" there. Councillor Williams wanted to see the location so it was arranged that he would inspect those properties on Strachan avenue next day. People there can‘t even get a well. F. Rich was. before council again re the extra charge for his connection at the corner of Golden and Railroad streets. He had made many visits to the council asking for water in a loâ€" cality where it was necessary to use castiron pipe and where Enginser Hendry was opposed to the proposition owing to the lack of proper drainage level, the necessity of breaking up aA newlyâ€"formed etc. Mr. Rich signed an agreement offering to pay all extra costs .entailed. The job was done some time ago. Now he objects to the cost of opening up the road, which at that low level was questioned | by the engineer, as it could not be tunâ€" ‘ nelled under as in higher localities. | In the court of revision an aged couple had the taxes reduced on some of their empty houses on condition that the remaining taxes be all cleared off. If this were not done the decision of the council would be reversed. Another man objected to the amount. of his taxes which council decided were reasonable, considering the value of the property. The man said, "I tink I make nice house; I pay more taxes. I tink I plaster it with tar next year." Mr. Wuori was there asking for a reduction on the taxes for the Finnish hall. He thought this ought to come under the same caption as the skatâ€" ing rink but was told that it was an: entirely different proposition; that it was being run and managed according to the views of one class of people. The rink is open to the public and beâ€" ing run bÂ¥ Canadian citizens according to Canadian laws and is for all who wisch to attend, Finnish as well as others. In some parts of Canada the Finnish youths who attend the public skating rink are becoming very adept in both skating and hockey. Hence one such building is enough for the council‘s patronage. The taxes were confirmed. Variocus other tax questions came up. Councillor Laforest asked if the time could be extended for payment without penalty but this could not be done legally now. Various charity cases we sidered. Kusela asked for a donation toâ€" wards sending a woman back to Finâ€" land but as she is a resident of Whitâ€" nsy this could not be done without creating precedent that would be harmful in future. Mr. Kusela then asked the councillors, reeve and clerk each for a donation of 25 cents toward sending her back. This was given. Whitney township of which the woman is a resident is donating $50 toward her return to Finland. Various other cases were considered.
