This was explained away by the fact that the carryover would be tliirown in- to the 1980 pool and loss avoided as a matter of bookkeeping, Tae premiers from the prairios were discussing yesterday, it was under- stood, the means for making the avoidance of & loss real instead of a matter of beekkeeping. Hon, John Bracken, interview od gst night, declined to discuss the fssue in any other way than to say that the western proviLces were 'not worrying at all" about the carryover, the Bowmanville Office of Block, King Street, May The erection of a new $7,000 equalizer tank for the watorworks dopartment was the most import- ant subject discussed by council ut thelr regular monthly session held last night, The need of this has been apparent for some timo and ospecially noticeable lately whon the canning factory wns run- ning and thore was n great short. age of wator uptown. The reason for this appears Lo be the fact that when an extra amount of water is drawn from the main at a time when the canning factory is run- ning the malin line cannot carry the amount, The need of the extra tank is then seen, It will hold an extra supply which will be avail- able at emergency times. 'The spring although 'ractically inex- haustible is not nble to take a vory heavy draw nl one time al- though it is able to take care of more than the town uses In normal times, Several other local works were approved and it is expected that a special menting of council will be held to pass the necessary by laws to put these works in oper- ation Summary «f Counell Meeting Minutes of the last regular and special meetings were read and adopted.

Hardy, superintendant of the local plant of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company wrote counell complaining of the fact that the town purchased a truck equip- ped with Firestons tires. Mr, Tardy considered that the town should have seen that the truck was equipped with Goodyear tires. The chatrman of the Waterworks und Roads apd Streets committees will Interview Mr, Mardy and ex- plain that it was an oversight and the tires were not considered in the purchase of the truck. Fire department petitioned the council for the retention of the sorvices of the Fire Mall janitor, William Barry, who {tL appears might lose his job when the new janitor for all publi: buildings is appointed, Mayor of Guelph wrote the town asking them to join in a Jepuin- tion to call on the Ontario Gov- ornment with a view of having separate municipalities relieved of the burden of expense of highway passing through these places, Baw. manville not boing n separate muni- cipality was not affected. Public works to be done in the near future are, new buiment on the base line bridge, now *'ater mains on Brown street, Second street and Lamb street, and a new sewer on Brown street, The Brown ntroot sewer will cost in the nth. borhood of $832 while the water main on the same street will cost $1522.

When My, Holman entered the room Mr, Bowen wns seated in a chair and Mr, Holman advanced and taking Fred hy the hand extended congratulations on his victory. A little before this Mr. Holman had put in his appearance in the office but was unable to ud a seat, It was suggested that he sit on the ballot boxes which he declined suy- ing "they sat on me too hard and I don't think I'll sit on them."

The first thing is the fact that out of a possible vote of 16,063 over 12000 or 75 per cent oxcercised their franchise, This record compared with many other ridings is very creditable, A coincidence occured in New- castle, number one division, when the candidates tied with 6S votes each this being the only tie in the riding while many others were vory close.
