T. King, the Temiskaming and Northern Ontario Railway agent there, is not assessable by the town of Cochâ€" rane, put the issue squarely up to the municipalities. It is unlikely the Town Council there will appeal from the judgment of His Honour, as it was agreed by the members of the fegal profession on hand at the time that the new contract introduced into the dispute settled the matter, in law. But the unfairness of the system remains and the municipaliâ€" ties, if they expect to secure any reâ€" dress, will have to take it upon themâ€" selves to bring pressure on the powâ€" ersâ€"thatâ€"be in this respect. _ Public opinion, including that represented by the railwaymen themselves, will be behind any effort made to place Comâ€" missionâ€"owned residences on the same basis as other dwellings."‘ There does not seem to be any reaâ€" son why the T. N.0O. should not pay its employees enough wages that they can manage to pay their share of the maintainance of the towns _ in which they live. Railway employees receive all the benefits that anyone else does from a townâ€"roads, streets, lights, water, sewerage, health proâ€" tection, fire protection, â€" police proâ€" tection, schools, ete. If one of these ailway houses should take fire, what would the Commuission think if the municipality said, ‘‘Oh, it‘s Crown property,â€"it doesn‘t need municipal protection ?‘‘ How would it be if municipalities asked the children of nonâ€"taxâ€"paying railway employees to trot along â€" to ‘‘Crown schools!" It takes money to maintain the pubâ€" lic services of a municipality. Why municipalities asked the children oT nonâ€"taxâ€"paying railway employees to trot along _ to ‘‘Crown schools?"‘ It takes money to maintain the pubâ€" lic services of a municipality. Why should any class be exempt? The question should result in a persistent demand that fairness and equity should prevail in such matters. It is probable that the towns of this North may coâ€"operate to secure jusâ€" tiee in this matter. In the report of the last meeting of the Cobalt Counâ€" cil, The Northern News makes the following reference along this line:â€" appear that all railway property in a town should pay taxes to the municiâ€" pality in the same way as any other property. _ Anything else is unfair and unjast. â€"In commenting on the question last week, The Northern News, of Cobalt, had the following editorial reference:â€" ‘Council discussed briefly the d4eâ€" cision of Judge Caron at Cochrane, THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TTIMMIN®S, ONTARIO n V n 101 NULoS, Diles, Chifâ€" blains, Neuralgia, etc. A nuntliwr took :ul;'zmlug() of â€" the i ; fine weather on Sunday to motor to * * ©ougLas N“‘mm bER | Connaught, [roquois Falls, Montieth, j Matheson, and other nearby towns.

Emigration from this Proâ€" vince, as from England to United States, is dueâ€"as my critice now says â€"to the lure of a better wage. It is not due to the export of our pulpâ€" wood. Mr. Barnjum, to make good his own case, must show that keeping pulpwood in this Province would make wages rise. What he offers in proof is his own statement, without any real evidence, that the supply of this material in the province is ‘‘totally inadequate to the demand."‘ Why, then, are not the mill owners buying it in large quantities? They will do so, he hints, if they can get an embargo imposed, and there will then be vast new projects to give emâ€" ployment. In short, if they can get the produce of woodland lots foreed down in price by Government interâ€" ference, these â€" phlanthropists â€" will show their zeal for the province by buying it for a song! We have seen such philanthropy befdre. Yours very truly, Economist. has favoured The Advance with a number of letters during the past year or two in regard to the embargo suggested by some to be put on pulpwood. Last week the following letter was received from "BEconomist."‘* It practically knoeks the bottom out of the propaganda for the embargo. ‘‘Economist‘‘ Replies to Letter by Mr, Frank Barnjum. standard oT living and wages are lower.‘‘ Exactly, What . causes emigration is not just the export of raw materials, as Mr. Barnjpumâ€"folâ€" lowing Sir John Willisonâ€"has sugâ€" gested. Nor will it be stopped simpâ€" ly by an embargo on such exports. It depends on quite complex conditions. Montreal, Sept. 12th, 1925 To The Editor, The Advance, Timmins, Ont. Dear Sirâ€"Mr. Barnjum‘s reply to my article pleases me well for it corroborates just what I said. He quoted from Sir John Willison to the effect that when raw materials are exported from a country they are followed by an exodus of the inhabiâ€" tants to the place where they are manufactured. I asked whether this had occurred in regard to the exports of American raw cotton.
