Mr. Bartleman claimed that the tax raze had never been discussed in the Rateâ€" payers‘ Associaticn and that they were not responsible for what any paper might say. "You ought to give your paper the right information," Councilâ€" lor Parsons suggested, but Mr. Bartleâ€" nman thought this was not his duty. He suggested again that too much atâ€" tention was paid to what the newysâ€" tail,". he said. Mayor Drew:â€""If such a resolution were passed it would be an insult to the council. It is not a detail." He added that for any selfâ€"elected body to refuse the councillors the rights of other CltiZe man veste Dr. Honey asked for particulars in regard to any such resolution affecting members of the council, but Mr. Bartleâ€" man could not say it had been passed, nor would he say positively it had not been passed. He knew it had been disâ€" cussed, but he did not believe it had been made into a resolution and passâ€" ed. He thought personally it was a proper stand and that members of council should not influence the Rateâ€" payers‘ Association nor vote on quesâ€" tions that might later come before the council. *"However, that is but a deâ€" tail," he said. also referri criticism 0o tion had be structive. repeéated not. take Mayor Drew replied that any inforâ€" mation desired by any ratepayer would be gladly given and was available all the time. He psinted out, however, that some wers given to jumping at conclusions and making wild stateâ€" ments about municipal matters and there seemed to be no advantags in giving them ammunition. The mayor also referred to the report of one meetâ€" ing of the Ratepayers‘ Association where it was decided that members of the council should not be‘ allowed to speak on questions before the assoâ€" ciation or to vote in the meetings. Mr. Bartleman said that reports in the papers should not be depended upâ€" on but that the meetings of the Rateâ€" payers Association should be attended. He suggested that there was no such resolution though the matter had been discussed. "On, if you don‘t wish to meet the ratepayers, all right," said Mr. Bartleâ€" man, who claimed that there was inâ€" crmation that was not available otherâ€" wise to the ordinary ratepayer who had a right to know how municipal affairs stood. "Iâ€"simply wanted t Stewart it was," said Councillor Parsons all information was ratepayers. They we all the council meetin follow procesdings all in the local paper. mayor. "Do you mean the candidate for the CC.F.?" * "Yes," replied Mr. Bartleman, but he seemed to think the question had no proper bearing on the matter. "I â€"simply wanted to know which ‘Mr. Stewart it was," said the mayor. "Why not have them come here?" asked Councillor Parsons, who added that they could got any information at any of the meetings of council. Mr. Bartleman replied that they did not wish to intrude or take up the time of the council away from regular busiâ€" ness. He thought an evening meeting preferable, as it would allow more people to be able to attend. "If you would prefer that the ratepayers come to a council mesting, it will be all right," he added. He proceeded to say that at a meeting of ratepayers on Thursday evening last it had been deâ€" cided to ask the council to meet the ratepayers so as to give an account of their stewardship. He said it was quite an enthusiastic meeting. In answer to the question as to how many of them were ratepayers he said he did not know, but he thought they must all be ratepayers or they wouldn‘t have been there; they wouldn‘t have been interâ€" ested. <â€"Mr. Bartliman said that Mr. Stewart had been appointed by the meeting on Thursday night to attend the meeting of the council and ask council to meet the ratepayers as sugâ€" gested.

As a result of the peculiar accident the little sevenâ€"monthsâ€"old daughter of Mr. and Mrs, Dionne is likely to lose her life from the serious burns sustained. The baby‘s fiveâ€"yearâ€"old brother was standing near the baby playing with a celluloid comb when the comb took fire and dropped on the baby‘s clothing. The child was seriously burned as a result. First aid was given at Noelâ€" ville and the baby then taken to Sudâ€" bury hosp‘tal where hopes are not very high for its recovery. The trip from Noelville to Sudbury took six hours on @ccount of the bad condition of the roads. * Mr. Bartleman replied that the mayor was again taking newspaper reports as to what had been said. He added that if the mayor wanted the real facts about the situation in Timmins he should read the editorial in the last issue of The Varsity, the paper of the students of the University of, Toronto. Councillor Maltais again brought forâ€" ward the suggestion of supplying water to two houses near the end of Kimberâ€" ley avenue in town. The owner of the two houses was willing to pay for four. Mayor Drew though anxious that all in town should have water thought the cost was against this work. The matâ€" ter was left in the hands of the waterâ€" works committee to see if a cheaper way could be found. If the work could be used on the relief work programme it might also be kept in mind in this regard. CELI ULOID COMRB CAUSE OF sSERIQUS BURNS TO made at the last mesting of the Rateâ€" payers‘ Association as to the number of blindpigs in town and other bad condiâ€" tions. He said that if Mr. Bartleman had any evidence or information to back this up he should give it to the police or the mayor and it would be attended to. Nov. 13th. This will allow council to get along with general business before they arrived: Councillor Maltais agreed with this, and it was decided by counâ€" cil to make this arrangement. Mayor Drew referred to statements made at the last mesting of the Rateâ€" payers‘ Association as to the number of blindpigs in town and other bad condiâ€" tions. He said that if Mr. Bartleman had any evidence or information to Councillor Honey then asked Mr. Bartleman who the ratepayers were who asked for the meeting. He sugâ€" gested that Mr. Bartleman tell who had moved and seconded the resolution. Dr. Honsy thought they would be found to be members of the association. He questioned Mr. Bartleman very closely with the idea of allowing Mr. Bartleâ€" man to show that the meeting of the ratepayers referred to by Mr. Bartleâ€" man and the Ratepayers‘ Association meeting were not very much the same. The mayor thought there might be a similar difference as between the Rateâ€" payers‘ Association and the Ratepayers‘ candidates at last elâ€"ction. Mayor Drew:â€""You want to criticize rather than help. The council has dons more in the past week for the people of the town than your associaâ€" tion since its commencement." To exâ€" plain this he referred to what had been done in the way of getting a number of men to work in the bush. Councillor Maltais said that the reâ€" quest for a meeting with the council did not come from the Ratepayers‘ Association but was passed at a meetâ€" ing not held under the auspices of the Ratepayers‘ Association. sons, ‘""we only collected the poll tax from the men entitled to pay it."‘ Mr. Bartleman said the 1926 council could not do it that way because the mine would not give them a list of the single men as they had done since. "Then the council should have made its own list" responded the councillor, "instead of doing something illegal." Councillor Parsons also accused the Ratepayers‘ Association of calling one minute for more lights and the next for lower taxes. ‘"You can‘t have both," he said. Mr. Bartleman thought they could by having the light rates reduced. Councillor Parsons pointed out that the light rates were not in the power of the council to reduce being controlled by contract duly entered into by the town. Mr. Bartleman said he believed that if the council were to ask for a reduction of light rates the comâ€" pany would be likely to give it. "Have you asked them?" queried the mayor. That was up to the council Mr. Bartleâ€" man said. Mr. Bartleman also said that Counâ€" cillor Parsons had been wrong in sayâ€" ing that the 1926 council had garnishâ€" eed every man at the mine. They had not garnisheed them at all. "They had the money taken off the men, so what‘s the difference? asked Councillor Parâ€" sons. "You‘re doing the same thing now" asserted Mr. Bartleman. "That is not the fact," replied Councillor Parâ€" sons, ‘""we only collected the poll tax from the men entitled to pay it"‘ Mr. Bartleman said the 1926 council could not do it that way because the mine papers might say. Councillor Massie:â€""So far as I‘m concerned there‘s only one newspaper."

Councillors called attention to the fact that some wedding parties were an annovyance through the unnecessary and continued tooting of horns,. Many citizens had complained and though there was no desire to interfere with reasonable joyousness on an occasion like a wedding, still the nerves of the people in general had to be considered, and this nuisance stopped.

A reâ€" presentative of the Workers‘ Coâ€"operaâ€" tive was present with samples of the goods. Council felt that other merâ€" chants should have an opportunity to submit prices and samples also.

After the men had been looked after, thirteen of them failed to turn up for work, but the other twenty were on the job and played the game fairly with the town. The thirteen who failed to play fair are cut off any further help or relief from the town. All the men concerned had been residents of the town for some time. In such cases as this where men fail to live up to their obligations it is easy to see how their poor sportsâ€" manship hurts good fellows who may be in difficulties for a time. The town can not be expected to help men in the way of clothing or ctherwise when they do not intend to accept work, and it is clear enough that it is such incidents as the one in this paragraph that makes ‘the town reluctant to do anyâ€" thing in the way of any kind of special help.
