New mines, all over the district, are springing up and the older ones are employing more men. The populaâ€" tion of Timmins keeps pace. Year after year an everâ€"increasing influx of peoâ€" ple keeps pouring into Timmins: workâ€" men, professional men and business men; ang but few leave Timmins. "How does this trend affect Timâ€" mins? A large proportion of these newâ€" comers find work in the mines; a few more professional men are added tn May Increase Debenture Debt "If all these improvements go through we shall have increased our dejenture debt by over $200,000. In the long run, though, these improvements ars absclutely necessary and the peoâ€" ple of Timmins will, I hope, not regret the expenditure." tories, $101,000 000 "The following improvements are beâ€" ing considered this year, subject to the approval of the municipal board and the issuing of debentures: "No doubt." he continued, "some lsmall economies can be practised in the police, fire and health departments and in general administration. These reductions are at best small anq genâ€" erally mean reduced efficiency. The council have practically no control over the expenditure for schools and for relief. These two items combined make up over 47 per cent. of the total exâ€" penditure. Reducing Costs of Streets by Paving "However, the maintenance cost of streets, sidewalks, and so on can be greatly reduceq by paving. This is a genuine saving but is smaller at least for _the. first few._years â€"than is ~genâ€" erally imagintd, as improvements cost money and therefore must be financed by debenture issues, a debt which must eventually be paid. Paving Planned "The reduction of roughly two mills in the estimates for public works which was so well advertised is occasioned by the fact that we are considering paving some eight miles of streets which, if we do, will cut down maintenâ€" ance cost by roughly the two mills mentioned. Should we decide not to do all this paving or be unable to sell debertures for this work, then, no doubt, this department will show a deâ€" ficit at the end of the year."

Although the place was conductâ€" eqd at most times in accordance with town byâ€"laws, ti was felt that the time has come when all stables should b> removed from at least the central part of the town. Objection to the stable was voiced by the owner of a neighbouring property who said that if the business were not removed from the district, he would lose his tenant. Odour and flies were the chief causes of complaint. The council discussed the question briefly at a meeting two weeks ago, asking that the boargq of health recommend removal.
