Thomas and three candidates for the office of Councillor viz:â€"â€"J. J. St. Paul, G. Helmer and A. Kincaid all spoke to the audience. Mrs. Thomas asked the people to support her in her effort for real economy. J. J St. Paul thought the tractor snowâ€" plough should accomplish more, and spoke of the good work he had done while on the council and of his wish to have another try at it. Mr. Helâ€" mer reiterated the fact that perhaps he knew more of what economy meant than most people. Mr. Kincaid in a neatlyâ€"worded speech asked for the people‘s support and promised faithâ€" ful stewardship. On Monday evening again many gathered at the Majestic Theatre for a word from the successâ€" ful candidates as is the custom, but none of those elected appearing, the people _ dispersed. _ However _ we learned that Mrs. Thomas, Reeveâ€" elect, had just come in from speaking to her adherents at Schumacher and was then on her way down to the Majestic. However it was too late to get the people reâ€"assembled and instead of listening to our ladyâ€"reeve, we are now looking forward with pleaâ€" sure to see the fulfilment of her proâ€" mises of economy, better adjustment of imunicipa!l affairs, etc. Besides Mrs. Thomas as Reeve, three Councilâ€" lors are now conceded to this part of Tisdale, one J.
