ONTARIO thus Last week The Advance received a letter frcm a re‘ader which gives a very general vieWpoint on one phase of the of The Advance has several times call- ed attention to the breaking of the spirit as well as the letter of the law by some of the beverage rooms in the town of Timmins. Some of the bever- age rooms are conducted in excellent way. Those who are around to see the rooms will agree that there are three at least that have shown the proper regard for the law and for the public interests. Some of the others, however. have not only broken the law. but they have also disregarded decency. The local police have been handicapped by the fact that co-operation has not been established between the provincial police in the matter. Something.‘ however. has been done by the local police to remedy the matter and no doubt more is planned. Actual evi- dence is difficult sometimes to secure in such cases though it may be known that the law is not being observed. Whenever the police arrive everything is all right, but others see things that are far from all right. It might help straighten up matters if people in gen- eral would tell the police instead of telling each other.

T the front entrance which was very fine and ornamental and made the house into a. two-family one of six rooms on each side, and it has been occupied as such ever since. “The siding on the north and west sides and the window frames are as they were put there by the original carpenter Zenas Adams 100 years ago. The ornamental window in the Gothic is exactly the same with mouldings and carvings as when built. A daughter of Mr. Adams who was approaching the century mark some years ago. told me that this front window lighted an upâ€" stairs room which they'called the “Pro- phet’s Chamber" as it was their father’s study and also was used to accommodate travelling-preachers." Continuing Mr. Mackenzie sayszr "This house is counted as being the first frame one erected in Acton and was built by Zenas Adams who was a carpenter and also a preacher. The dwelling was the headquarters for the early Methodists of the surrounding district. The Adams family were the founders of Acton and f-Or a number of years one of the sisters kept a board- ing school for pupils in the domicile. ”When I bought the property in 1906 it was much too large for a one family house and had been used for two fam- ilies for a number of years without being properly separated.

This latter figure is at the old legal price of $20.67 an ounce. If the Can- adian Government should fix its gold standard at the current American figure of $35 an ounce, the govern- ment's gold would be worth $50,000,000 more, leaving Ottawa with approxi- mately $86,000,000 more gold than on notes. n I! The Dominion Government holds $36.- 181,224 more gold than is required by statutory necessity. The total gold held by the government is $73,206,570.

'According Lo word from Matachewan last week this is not the case. If the su1vey wo1k was stopped for a time then it has been renewed ii 1eports f1ofn Matachewan are correct. Accmd- .ing to despatches dated Matachewan there is still a chance that one or both of the roads surveyed may be built in l the comparatively near future. One of the routes for which the late govern- ment promises a survey was the pro- posed road to run from Porcupine to Sudbury by way of Matachewan. The 30ther mad was one from Matachewan to Swastika. The latter road would mean that the distance by road from Matachewan to Kirkland Lake would be cut down to about thirty miles in- stead of the present eighty miles. This i would be a good thing, of course, for both Matachewan and Kirkland Lake, but would not be as important to the North generally as the proposed road from Porcupine to Sudbury via Mata- chewan. This latter road would not only open up a, notable stretch of new country. and shorten the distance from this part of the North to Toronto and other‘points south, but it would be also prove a great benefit to tourist trade. allowing. as it would, people to come by road to this North by one route and return by another.
