Special to The Advance. On Tuesday evening there was aA session of the council of Tisdale when the reeve and all the councillors were present. Thre was considerable discussion over the bill on municifptiul income taxâ€" ation which is at present before the legislature of Ontario. For townships like Tisdale income tax is the fairest tax of all. Should the present bill go through the legislature it might mean an increase of 16 mills on the dollar for such a township as this. Bornâ€"At Timmins, Friday, March 6th to Mr. and Mrs. W. Fields,â€"a son, Denis William. Drcpping Income Tax Would Mean Additicn to Tax Rate, Townm hip Councii Discusses Need for Water Meters and Other Questions, H. V. Grewcoe reported on his exâ€" amination of the fireâ€"truck at Schuâ€" macher and from an external examinaâ€" tion did not seem to think the cost of making the engine as good as new would be out of the way at all. _ As nearly as could be judged from the scaling of the enamel it had been burnt out at some time which would mean warped valves, etc. He was directed to The routine bills and accounts were passed for payment. give it the propsr overhauling and while the work is being done a truck will be rented to carry hose, etc., in Schumacher in case of emergency. Considerable discussion came up re the installing of water meters. This seems to be an absolute necessity in the west end of the township where the water is paid for by the gallon for the conmvenience of the patrons and the amount used is abnormal on being cocmpared with other localities. so in the South Porcupine part, while not such a necessity yet, as one councillor remarked, a meter would be the fairest method. Then those who wished to use tap water for frigidation in summer would pay accordingly, etc. Liverymen with empty stalls in their barn would only pay for amount used. The clerk was instructed to get prices on a quanâ€" tity of meters. Assessor Smith reâ€" marked on the extra time this work was taking in Schumacher owing to the extensive building that is going on there. The sale of the wood cut as an unemployment emergency was taken up. The Coniaurum had contracted to take 100 cords which helped some. It was remarked that the rockâ€"cutting on Fourth avenue in Schumacher for the same purpose had been more costly than if it had been let on contract. The council wished it could get sale for rock as readily as for wood. *4 * 4* 5 5 5 5 i5 5 i5 i5 05 05 54 Nine Men in Court on Vagrancy Charge Washer Store at Timmins have not been judged.
