TMMING T0 Bt A GTVY â€" DF 35,000 1N VE YEARGS In an interview. with a Toronto newspaper, Mr. Geo. Wright, propmâ€" etor of the Walker House, Toronto, and one of the Commissioners of the Toronto â€" Hydroâ€"Electrie Commuissgion, speaks in more than optimisic terms of the growth of the North Lanxd in the next five years,. Mr. Wright is a man of the world of affairs who has taken a keen interest in industrial and mining matters and has been in a position to secure much special generâ€" al knowledge. ‘**I see in the undeveloped amineral resources of Northern Ontamo,‘‘ he said, ‘‘the greatest opportunity _ to create neow wealth of any province of the Dominion. .If this province since 1905 can produce in silver and gold, with the limited development that has taken place up to the present time, a sum greater than one hurdred millâ€" ions of dolars, with a properly orgaâ€" nized method of â€" development the possibiliies are Dbeyond the dreams of the average man. 1 see nothing but unlimited prosperity for Ontario Mr. Geo. Walker, of the Walker House, Toronto, Has Visions of the Growth of the North. and for Toronto in the development of the mineral resources of Northem Ontario. â€" I can see Timmins in the next five years with a population of at least 35,000, and in ithe Kuirkland Lake district a city of 10,000 people, and in the other undeveloped sections of the great North Land there are bound to be many, many prosperous cities. I can see a total population of not less than 250,000 people settled in ithe North Land. â€" When mines such as the Hollinger and ithe Dome are employing from 3000 to 5000 men, not to say anything about the Melnâ€" tyre and. other largo p.r(rperties,. one can readily see where, in the mning section alone, at least 60,0000 to 80,â€" 000 will be constantly employed. This is not only possible, it is probaible."‘ Mr. . Wright is equally optimistre about the lumber industry‘s possibiliâ€" ties in the North Land. He estimated the total mineral outâ€" put in gold and silver for the next five years at $200,000,000.00. _ He also touched on the possibilitres of the deâ€" velopment of water powers, ete., and mentioned the possible development of agrieulture in the North. â€" Homes and work for returned soldiers, he said, could be acceptably provided in the sreat North. ‘Mr. Wright is certainiy enthusiasâ€" tic enough albout, the North Land and all will trust that the next five years will fully justify his vision of iwhat may be.

AKLhough there was only a small, attendance at the meeting â€"of the . Ratepayers‘ Associatign on Friday evening last in, the Timmins Council Chambers,> there was â€"much _ lively, and interesting diseussion of municiâ€" pal matters. _ Mr. Wm. DeFeu, tirst president of the Association, ocâ€"] cupied chair for the evening. Mr. H. MeQuarrie was one of the members delegated to attend all the Townr Council meetings and report to the Association as to the proceedingss Wihen asked on Friday evening if he had ‘any report to make, Mr. Meâ€" Quarrie walked up to the front of the railing before the â€" president,. (‘lmirma.n and gentleman,""‘ he said; ‘* T have a full and authentic report in detail of the last Council meeting. And there it is!" And he tuhrew down on the table a «opy of the last issue of The Advance. "Then AKchoug!) ittendance vening la: Latleor in the evening Mr. MeQuarrie referred to Councilior Brazeau‘s proâ€" pn-dl that the Council advertise askâ€" ing for all who â€" wished â€" sidewalks built to make the necessary petitions. Mr. MeceQuarrie thought that it would be unwise to spend all the money aâ€" vailable on sidewalks, while waterâ€" works extensions and better roads nwere so badly needed in some parts of the Some of the residents of the town, he said, had to earry their groâ€" ceries home on their baecks like prosâ€" pectors, and plough through the mud to their knees on account of the bad condition oÂ¥ Hhe roads. **Most of us would be ready to do without sideâ€" walks for another little while," he suggzested, ‘‘if we had good roads to walk® on ‘and if the ~money _ were spent on road improvements, sewers, waterworks extensions, ete.""‘ _ Pracâ€" tically all present agreed with Mr. \Iananm s suggestion, and a resolu tion was passed asking the Council to give first consideration to sewers, waterworks and improved roads, even if the sidewalks â€"remained â€" unbuilt for the« present. The matters of sanitary dairies, meat inspectors, etce., were again disâ€" cussed. ,The meeting considered sanâ€" itary dairies, inspected mesk and wholesome foodstuffs as vital to the healitlin®f the townm _ _ The appointâ€" ment of a third policeman, allowing Officer Burke to act as special saniâ€" tary inspector, was considered _ as helpful by some, but some believed thas an expert on sanitary matters should"be secured for the work. To this ‘end a resolution was adopted asking Councillor DeFeu to bring beâ€" fore the Town Council the question of Tigdale and Timmins uniting to secure the services of a firstâ€"class exâ€" pert sanllary inspector to look atter meats, dairies and the general health of the two municipalities. $ Mr. J. A. Theriault suggested that an effort should ‘hbe made to adverâ€" tise ‘the Town of Timtiins, so as to help in the growth of the Town. Lo thought an adverl ising! campaign: in the outside daily papers would soon make. known the advantages of the town and attract more men and more eapital to the place. The question, however, was looked upon as of parâ€" tieular dinterest |o, the â€" Board _ of Trade and so the meeting left it with that body to deal with. In the view of the eonstitution not allowing a member o he Town Coun cil to hold a place on the executive of tie Ratepayers‘ Association, there were two places to "ill,â€"Mr. DeFeu‘s place as president, and Mr. L. S. Nowton‘s as a member of the exccuâ€" tive committee. Messrs. D. Lapraimie J. K. Moore and J. P. Bartleman were nominated for the presidency, lC Nnowton‘s as a memoer of the excecuâ€" tive committee. Messrs. D. Laprairie J. K. Moore and J. P. Bartleman were nominrated for the presidency, two former retiring in favor of Mr. Bartieman who was eleeted presi dent by acclamation. For the exceuâ€" tive member, two names went to ballot,â€"Mr. D.
