opinion that it is not necessary for any ablebodied per son of this village to be on relief and be a burden to himself and the rest of us it is possible for the coun cil to provide work for everyone who is in need which would bring them considerably more remunera tion for their labour than they would receive on relief and save council for reeve and a choice from among the following for coun cil mr wilfred imorden mr hugh boyd mr telfer rennie mr iross brown and myself there men have time and ahility to make a considerable change for the better ment of the business principles of this village i am vitally interested as a tax payer as i am paying close to four hundred dollars a year taxes there is at this time a number of different bylaws which are of vital them the humiliation that every importance to this municipality and ambitious person must feel men on ambitious person must feel men on relief are often more physically fit to earn their own living if they have a chance than some of those who shoulder the relief burden and would it not make better more satisfied citizens their labour should also provide a revenue to the village and lower the tax rate in stead of increasing it the transient should be submitted to the people for their approval or disapproval at the coming election the present council is giving the rate payers a chance to voice their opinion con cerning who is going to be elected and who isnt one byone that should be voted on is for building restrictions then there is a business restriction bylaw the council prom- necessary properly handled every worthy transient is willing to labour for his accommodation if he has the chance and is humanly treated this could all be provided for by the council at a profit instead of a loss restriction bylaw the council prom- problem has also become a serious to sudmit to the people at th bu a necessaryi election the time bylaw i wish it understood that such a bylaw will never be passed by my vote unless it is first carried by a vote of the people it appears to me the council is being run by a dictator for which we should not our present council continually stand this is a democratic country offers the excuse that it is imposs- yet and let us keep it so fble for them to accomplish any there is mucl im work to more than they have without rais- be doile otherwise we are going to ing the tax rate which they consider suffer seve for our neg in the to be high enough i maintain that very near future the main igsue they are wrong that word fa tlle c0u that will be elect- impossible should be left out ed js to find ways and means of cop the wise man confucious said if a ing with these facts without burden- thing is hard to do you am doing it j the tax payers the wrong way this should bear t may i advise you to make a me out that too many things are be- tu change an the council a change ng done the wrong way which has m b f that you will not regret whatever caused so many things to be left you do shoulder your duty hy using undone that should have been done t jndgmant and exercisln and are going to cost considerably your francniao more to do now through neglect a stitch in time saves nine and a dol- wishing one and all a happy and lar spent to make two dollars is p new year i remain good business sincerely yours our present council bewails the adv d holden speaking of feeds going back
