DARLING MINING ENGINEER Examinations, Reports, Developâ€" ment Programs. Reed Block, Timmins, Porcupine District, Ontario. aATISC A much is resourceluiness in making plans and getting preparations under way for the reâ€"esta‘blishment of the town. Haiâ€" leybury people are showing the right spirit and are ready to do their full part. The Government should do its part. Haileybury has a deabenture debt of around $250,000.00. The tax ‘ate in Haileybury is already a very high one (56 mills on the dollar). Now Haileybury can scarcely be exâ€" pected to be able to meet the pay ments on its debenture debt with its sadly depleted tax roll and in view of the fact that most of the citizens have had all their resourees wiped out, exâ€" cept their faith and courage,â€"the faith and courage that have made the North Land‘s growth and progress possible. There were T741 houses burned at Haileybury and only T71 houses left. Such a blow might well discourage any town, and would disâ€" courage most towns. But the people of Hairleybury have shown that faith and courage afe their outstanding features and already they are busy planning the building of a new and better town on the site of the devastâ€" ated one. That is their part. The Govâ€" ernment of Ontario should see that it meets the responsibility of its part with equal resourcefulness and couâ€" rage. In view of the amount of money that has come from the North Land and the comparatively small amount that has been returned in Governâ€" mental expenditure, it would not be amiss for the Government to relieve Haileybury of the whole burden of its bonded indebtedness, as a part of the contribution of the Province to the reâ€"establishment of the town. In any event Haileybury should be given very material grants so that its past inddbtedness may not prove a erushâ€" ing burden in its new life. HAD /41 HOUSES BURNED; 71 LEA Will be Reâ€"Built Bigger and Bettor Than Ever. Government Should Assist in Matter of Debenture Debt. The question is of very great import ance to every centre in the North Land.

If a North Land town should be foreed to default in payment of its debentures for even a year, this fact would be added to the other excuses now used ‘by the financiâ€" al men to handicap the legitimate borrowings of North Land municipalâ€" ities. It will be a straight disgrace to the Province of Ontario if Haileybury has to default or defer payment on any of its indobtedness. PFurther, it will be another serious blow to the credit of the pioneer municipalities of the North Land. With individuals, corporations and municipalities all over the Province and beyvond, showâ€" ing generous humanity in contributâ€" ing materially to the stricken people of Hailéeybury, the Ontario Governâ€" ment should find a way or make a way The ‘Mayor of Sudbury ts severey censured by the Sudbury Star for his inaction in regard to relief measures for the sufferers of what will generalâ€" ly be known as "the Haileybury fire.‘‘ The Star points out that the‘ people of Sudbury have shown as great sympathy and as much concern for the Haileybury fire sufferers as any other town in the Province, but this has not been made apparent on ac count of the Tack of prompt action by those in authority. While Copper Cliff for example, made a grant of $500.00 to ‘the relief fund, and other towns throughout the North Land rushed supplies and clothing to the stricken area, as well as making money grants, no offiGéial action seemed to ‘be taken [?by Sudbury. The Star is quite corâ€" rect about the heart of the people of Sudbury being all right. ‘This was amply provengby the individual donaâ€" tions made by Sudbury people just as soon as the need was known. The Amalgamated Catholie Societies of Sudbury have also organized to reâ€" ceive anrd forward contributions of goods.or cash. The Sudbury branch of ‘the Red Cross is doing excellent work along the same line. Sudbury is making other individual organized effort to shew ‘its feeling towards the relief work. Sudbury is all right. As for the Mavor and others in authority ment. â€" AnNnQG ] adopted than liftipg the h benture debhbt. Government‘s will be that it cedent. â€" This SUDBURY SYMPATHIZES WITH FIRE SUFPFERERS at the Nickel Town, The Advance would not presume the reverse of this proposition is worthy of note. It is not too much to.say that the prompt and wholehearted action, and continuâ€" ed action and interest, of Dr. Melunis, Mayor of Timmins, were largely insâ€" trumental in making the help from Timmins of dowble benefit to the fire ‘‘They give twice who give quickly.‘"‘ In this case, Timmins gave *‘ twice,‘ thanks in quite a measure to the May or who did not lag behind the good impulses of this town. The rest of the Council, the Board of Trade, the I1.0. D.E., the Red Cross Society,â€"indeed, all public and semiâ€"public bodies, not excepting the FirgeDept.â€"and the town officials generallyâ€"were all prompt in action and generous‘ in effort. No one can say that the authorities here misâ€" represented the generosity of the peoâ€" ple ‘by any lack of action or interest in the case of the fire sufferers. And what is true of Timmins is equally true of Tisdale Township where the response to the need and generous. The same is true of Iroquois Falls in fullest measure, and also of Cochrane and other towns of the North. The people and those in authority alike showed that the people of the North Land give generously and speedily when they hear the call. ‘Mrs. Umpleby, who has been the guest of her daughter, Mrs. H. M. Martin, at South Poreupine for some months past, left last week to return to her home in Yorkshire, England. During her stay in the Camp Mrs. Umpleby made many friends and all will sincerely wish her a pleasant voyage and an early return visit to her friends in this North Land.
