Smalipelice, J.P. r Daily Wibig, TIME FOR A OHANGE, The laét \was a remarkable meeting of the city council. It was difficult to secure a quorum, and - when this was attained resolutions were passed remit- ting to individuals and committees, with power to act, work' which should have the sanction of the coumil. In other words some members of the council have no particular regard Tor their public duty, no particular apprecia- tion of the service for which they pro- fess an anxiety when election time comes around. They absent themselves from the council chambers and prac- tically intimate that they do not. care what becomes. of the public business: The rest of the members tire of the strugg'y, and decide to let the officials and committees manage things as they please. More and more the people must be convinced that the council method of doing the people's business is not the best. It is haphazard and inefficient, and one must long for the time when the law of Ojtario will be amended 80 that commissioners will be elected, men who will give their whole time to the duties of the day, and 'be reason- ably recompensed for their service. Wherever this 'system has been tried it is pronounced a success. I Kingston had it there would be better city gov- ernment. The jealolsies between the departments would disappear. ~ There would be no friction anywhere. The city's business would be grouped so that each ' commissioner would have charge of the business for which he had a special training or aptitude, and he would be on the job all the while. Better still, the power of recall, on the part of the people, would assure them of a satisfactory service, Any- one scamping his' work, or neglecting his duty, or disdaining public opin- ion, could be called to account und displaced by 8 vote of the people. A change like that would give Kingston what it has not now, the continuous Cham- H E ; CORONATION OFT) i be observed all over x sire as 8 public holiday.

He does usually as he is advised, and by the men who are chosen for the-elect of the people for the purpose, but there are times when, dcéording to the unwritten rather than the written law, he has to assume re sponsibilities of the gravest character. I'hese responsibilities are dramatized of which he gives the pledges that, guided Ry an all-wise God, he will do bys part, and do it fearlessly, con- sistently and well. Few of the multi tude who are now in London can, in Westminster Abbey, see his magesty make these pledges, but they can get a glimpse of him as he pasees along the pitreets and they can be satisfied that he will walk in the footsteps of his gracious father and grandmother' and guarantee to the millions of his king- dom the rule they desire. To Andrew Carnegie all this has no meaning, but it has a meaning to those who are engaged in the service of state quite as great and comprehen- five as the meaning which ' great trasts attach to the articles of incor poration and acts of caucuses by which the lives of the people are cramped or cared for. ------ CONSOLIDATION IN ORDER. Mr, Hewitt, who has been the su- perintendent ¢~ the water - department since the city took over the plant in 1857, 'tenders his resignation, and as it is based upon the desire to cease sor vice with the city, in the interest of health, will probably be accepted. All who know Mr. Hewitt will recognize in him a faithful servant. He is one of the type too seldom found. His inter: est was the public interest, and he gaye to the discharge of public duty his best thought and consideration. With him there was a constant sense of responsibility, with the result that he was active and alert at all times, and carried a burden of care which it care af the people's business by the [18 feared the council did not always people's representatives. EL + MORMONISM IN CANADA, The Whig was not/ impressed very much; by the declamations of the church against Mormonism in Canada. To Teal that a great evil exists and that it is intolerable Hne mist know a good deal about it, and he turns from the indifferent and indirect criti- cism of the church to the secular press. Nan Moulton, in the Canadian Couri- or, skelches in a fascinating way the settlement of the sect in Canada, It 'was of gmall dimensions in 1887, when a few of its members found a lodg- ment near Cardston, Alta., and for a few years the numbers did not in- crease very rapidly, but in the last 'ten years the Mormon influence has been extending in a remarkable way. According to this special writer for the Courier, the sect covers a stretch appreciate, 1 Ho was perhaps too sensitive to public criticism and criticism which was not intended to be personal. 'So conscientious was he, so deeply con- cerned with the details of the service, that he felt keenly anything that was said about the water department, and this was an evidence of his devotion. The average official does not care about the criticism of the press and people, and occasionally does not care about the public approvel or disap- proval of his wervice. Mr. Hewitt con- tewplates retirement 'with a mind that should be at ease on one point, that his was 'whole-hearted service and that he gave to the city the best thai was in him. f And now, with a prospective va- cancy in office, what is to be done?
