Over $3,000 was spent on this . road. There was criticism that local but it was impossible to get men to work at the wages paid, and the men would not do a day's work when given a chance. Regarding the new equalization, Mr. Leslie thought it very fair to Inn-i=sl. It was raised owing to the expensive buildings gwoinxg up on the lake front. The `assessment on the lake shore pro- perties could be raised and he was in favor of doing this. Regarding the change in the road system, Mr. `Leslie said he was one who ad-vo- ` cated this change. The increase in : traic demanded -that some better ' system be adopted. Under the old : system they had some fty men I Ioveqxseeing the work in the township. ` 1 ll men did not get a -chance to work, Some places work was done right, and some places there was little or may not be perfect, but it was a : step in the right direction. Over . two-thirds of the townships in On- I t3a.rio have abolished statute labor, and few have gone back to it. The j big trouble was that so many were opposed to the new system and in- stead of trying to make it a success, I were doing everything` possible to : nothing done.

Eben Todd Mr. Todd referred to the clmnges that had taken place since last nominlatlon. The passing of the late Cl-emk, R. M. M'cCon`key, was a dis- tinct loss `to the townsl1i.p. There ~ was much talk this year a:bou`t road ' condivtions, whether it was justied -" or not. Lt was a trying fall on roads ' with so much wet weather. The ` change in the road system may be all right, but evidently is not pro- perly handled. He would not be a t canddlale for Reeve this year, thoulgh I pressed by many. IV /V A11 1 U. rxuuu Mr. Allan said he had been a member of the council for twelve years. He had been out for the last two years, but was in the eld for the Reeveship this year again. The road system appeared to be the big problem. Two years ago when the statute labor was connnunted there was little dissatisfaction. Every dol- lar commuted for each beat was spent on that beat and the money was well spent. He was not in avo-r of the new system. Ashford Warnica Mr. Warnica said he wa.s oflerinp; himself as a candidate for Reeve a._':a*inst his will, but had been urged, by his friends. He was not criticis- ing the present council. They had pr-olbably done their best. They were not giving satisfaction and taxes were too high. He had been in the council before and had saved the township money. If given a chance he could do it again. He was not ashamed of his record. The expendi- tures of the township were increas- ing at an enomnous rate. In 1914 . the amount on the roll was $26,224, while this year it is $71,676, and what more are we gwettinig to-day than we got then ? Mr. Warni-ca. said that his taxes amounted to 21/. .per cent. of the assessed value of his property, and it would soon be bank interest. The council, no doubt, done the best they could (;for them- selves). A whole lot of the expendi- ture was in the Ooumty Council and he wanted to get there to cut down the expenditure. He was out for Reeve and would endeavor to give honest service. If taxes were not lowered he would go liome and pre- Ipare to move out of the township.

Eight for Coun'cil'1o-rs Harry Stewamt said the big tromble - was in the road system and the Pro- ` vincial 5 t e e rl ,1 Government was to blame. The council had to obey the rules or lose the gra-nt of $3,500. He knew there were many things not right. They were grading` t-he road>s too wide.
