Mayor and Council Pleased at Franchise (Continued from Page One) "I was very much pleased with the way the officers of the power company ccnducted themselives. They were jJust as fair as they could be. "It is the people‘s personal question â€"they should come cut and vote." Councillor A. Caron "I think we made a real bargain for the franchise and we should put it through," commented CouncillOr A. Caron. "It is much better than I exâ€" pected. I believe it is as fair as .we could get anywhere; and I believe it is better than the Hydro could do. I am really in favour of giving the franâ€" chise right away. "Everybody should turn out and give their vote in favour of it," he advised. Councillor W. McDermott Councillor Wm. McDermott expressed himself wholeâ€"heartedly in favour of immediate acceptance of the proposal. "I think it‘s going to be all right," he said. "It will undoubtedly be of great benefit *o the community at large and 1 believe that every man and woman who has a right to vote should mark his ballot in favour of the franchise byâ€"law."‘ Councillor John Morrison "To me it is a big reduction," said Councillor John Morrison. "It means about $62,000 to the people of this town in one year. In the street lighting and disposal plant we will save about $2,000 right away. wWith the reduction in street lighting costs we will be able to instal many needed lights. The reâ€" duction will come into effect on June of 1936. The power company has been very fair with us. _ I would advise every elector to vote for the new franchise." Courcillor J. P. Bartleman "I‘m certainly gratified at the proâ€" position we‘ve got from the company," Councillor James P. Bartleman told The Advance. "I think we should be well satisfied. The rates are lower ever before but of course I would like to see them lower still, The company seems to be very considerate and met us in every request we mads.. Where they found it impoassible to come all the way they at least met us half way. They granted savings to the town imâ€" mediately on acceptance of the franâ€" chise on the sewage disposal plant and street lighting and have offered the general reductions in June instead of December, 19836. 1% iiext if the byâ€"law is passed and will mean a saving of $22,000 in the balance "As to the vote, I personally would rather see it on December 2nd. There would be no confusion at all with other ballots. Generally speaking, it is not fair to the people. The result is that those who favour the byâ€"law get out and support it. Supposing there are elements that would like to defeat the franchiseâ€"they are not able to organize at all. They‘re just not in it. "I would like to see everybody who is a user of light and power get out and vote. They have the opportunity now to voice their opinion now whether they want the franchise or not." "but the way the proposition was put up to me seemed that if we fell in line and approved the franchise unanimously it would mean a saving of $22,000 in a single year to the people of the town. I thought it only right to accept proâ€" position like that. "I have always been against 10â€"year franchises," continued Mr. Bartleman, Referring to the recent death and funeral of H. R. Channen who died at his home in Timmins on Wednesday Octoser 2nd, The Barrie Examiner on Thursday last had the following:â€" "Citizens of Barrie who knew him were shocked to learn of the death of Funeral of H.

Taylor 57 Tamarack Street Harcld Robert Channen, popular resiâ€" dent of the Porcupine district for the past ten years, at his home in Timmins on Wednesday, October 2nd, 1935. Alâ€" though he had been at his job as water commissioner for the township of Tisâ€" dale the day previous, he had not been well during the past few weeks. Death was due to diabetes. "Although born in Orillia 40 years ago, Mr. Channen lived most of his life in Barrie, graduating from the colleâ€" giate shortly before the outbreak of war. When he joined the overseas forces, he was employed in the C.N.R. offices at Allandale. After three years in the war, he was sent to hospital, poiâ€" sored by gas. He never completely recovered from the effects. "After the war Mr. Channen returned to the railway and was soon advanced to the position of C.N.R. representative at North Bay. There 11 years ago, he married Miss Myra Reynolds. The Channens went north in 1925 and after being in the insurance business at Iroâ€" quois Falls and Timmins for a short time, Mr. Channen was offered the post of assessment commissioner. This posiâ€" ticn he held until 1933, when he accepted the office administered by him until his death. "One daughter, Helen Rhea; his wife; his mother, Mrs. H. C. Channen of Barâ€" rie;~two brothers, Edward C. Channen, of Barrie and Rev. Gordon Channen, of Trinity Anglican Church, Bradford; and his sister Eleanor of Barrie surâ€" vive him. "A short service was held at Timmins on Thursday morning, Oct. 3, prior to entrainment for Barrie. Rev. Canon R. S. Cushing and Ven. Archdeacon Wocdall officiating at the service which was attended by a large number of Mr. Channen‘s friends of Timmins, Schuâ€" macher and South Porcupine. A priâ€" vate service was held from the home of his mother, 47 Worsley St., Barrie, on Friday, Oct. 4 at two o‘clock. Serâ€" vice was held at 2.30 in his old church, Trinity, with Ven. Archdeacon C. A. Moulton officiating. The pallbearers were Dr. W. C. Little, Gordon Longâ€" man, Harry Armstrong, E. Welte, E. G. Coles and Fred Serjeant. Interment *was made in Barrie Union Cemetery." "The late Mr. Channen was promiâ€" nent in many circles in Timmins, ho‘ aâ€" ing office for many years as secretary of the Liberalâ€"Conservative Association, and at one time was secretaryâ€"treasurer of the Timmins branch of the Canadian Legion, as well as other positions showâ€" ing public confidence. The weekly meeting of the Timmins Girl Guides was held on Friday evenâ€" ing. The attendance was taken by Captain Cranston. Lieutenant Tilley took inspection and Lieutenant Habib read out the marks. Horseshoe was formed. The flag was raised by Patriâ€" cia King assisted by Hilda Tomlinson and Marie McCann. The Guides went to their Patrol Corâ€" ners. The Patrol leaders were given a copy of the Guide Prayer. Every Guide is to have a copy of this prayer, The Rangers selected Helen Landers as secretary and Marjory Bacon as treasurer. The Ranger funds will be kept separate from the Guide funds. Arrangements are being made for the Rangers to have their meetings apart from the Guide meetings., A circle was formed for Campfire. Captain Cranston made an imitation caimpfire with a flash light in the cenâ€" tre. The effect was quite realistic. Songs were sung and the meeting was brought to a close by the singing of *A ‘ News and Notes of Timmins Girl Guides Interesting Weekly Meeting Held Last Friday Evening. Rangers Plan to Meet Separately. Phone 1160 Moosanee Diocese Changed to Ontario The Diocese of Moosonee, in which Timmins and the surrounding territory has been since its foundation many, many years ago, was originally connectâ€" ed with the ecclesiastical Frovince o‘ Rupert‘s Land. Now, it has been anâ€" nounced from Belleville, where the Synod of Ontario is in session, Mooasoâ€" neée diocese has become a part of the church‘s Province of Ontario. Diocese Formerly in Church of England Province of Rupert‘s Land, Changed by Synod. Constant advances in transportation facilities and settlement in the North have brought about another changs, this time in the work of the Church of England. Until now when the diocese of Mooâ€" sonse has been involved with a numâ€" ber of other dioceses in the work of the church, the provincial headquarâ€" ters to which this territory belonged was at Winnipeg. In the future, it will be at Toronto. From Labrador to Saskatchewan In the very early days of the Church of England in Canada, the diocese of Rupert‘s Land covered the immense area from Labrador through to the Saskatchewan boundary, including the northern parts of what are now the political provinces of Quebec, Ontario anq Manitoba. Travel was done mainâ€" ly by canoe; the Hudson Bay, James Bay and Mattagami, Abitibi, Missinaâ€" bi river basins were reached by boat, either from England or the long way round from Montreal. The height of land was a governing factor in transâ€" portation and hence in the division of the church‘s working territory. Winâ€" nipeg could be reached by a continuâ€" ous water route from a large part of the area. Now the railroad has steadily pusheq the slower, unreliable water travel into the discard. Northern Queâ€" bec and Northern Ontario have become more arki more strongly connected with the South rather than the West. At Belleville the lower house of the synod elected Rev. H. F. Woodcock of Toronto as prolocutor with Very Rev. Dean Riley of Hamilton as deputy. Rev. R. H. Waterman of Smith‘s Falls was elected clerical secretary and E. L. Brittain of Ottawa lay secretary. Judge Evans McLean of Picton and Chancellor Gisborne of Ottawa were appointed assessors, and Archdeacon Doherty was chosen registrar of the synod. Rev. Archdeacon Woodall of South Porcupine was in attendance at the synod meeting. "When Jack Judd goes back to paâ€" trolling Toronto streets as a city policeâ€" man he will have the memory of a cold, wet halfâ€"day in northern bush counâ€" try where bears abound, to make him happy with frigid beats in winter time in the Queen City. Judd, who is here on vacation, was lost with Bill Kenny, Teckâ€"Hughes miner, from around four o‘clock Saturday afternoon till two o‘clock Sunday morning in the vicinity of Grenfell Lake, about 20 miles from here, where he, Kenny and Judd‘s host, Bill Steel, also a Teckâ€"Hughes ernployee intended to hunt ducks. According to the story of the search party comprised of Provincial Constable A. McDougall, Township Constable Carl Tripp, Cliff Baker, of Poilock avenue and Bill Steel, Judd and Kenny were found, thorâ€" cughly drenched, attempting to warm themselves at a fire they‘d lit. The three men left here around thrse o‘clock Saturday afternoon on arriving near the lake split with Steel going down the lake for the boat and the other pair circling aroung it. The arâ€" rangement was for Steel to meet them over at the small cabin which served as Still Another View on Sale of Temagami Timber (Kirkland Lake Northern News) . In another column on this page The Northern News reproduces letter written to The Sudbury Star by the lumber firm of William Milne and Sons, defsnding the Hon. Peter Heenan‘s proposal to allow commercial logging in the Temagami Forest Reserve. The firm‘s argument, from the comâ€" mercial point of view and from their own, carries logic. The question is however, whether they should be allowed to continue their business at what amounts to pubâ€" lic expense, even if there is a return to the provincial treasury. Kirkland Police Locate City Cop Lost in Bush And if it is a precept that under such conditions such firms must be nursed along to continue operations, the Hon. Peter Hesnan had better find some other timber limitsâ€"even if it involves the Milnes‘® moving their equipment. The letter states that firm only wishes to have a bid on timber that is overâ€" mature and liable to blow down from year to year. The story of the city policeman lost in the bush near Kirkland Lake, and found again by some of his North Land police friends is told as follows by The Northern News this week:â€" Whether such operations would be profitable to them is for the lumber firm to know and decide, but it cerâ€" tainly is not to the advantage of peoâ€" ple of the North Land and their tourâ€" ist guests to have the forest thus inâ€" terfered with. The Milne argument is selfâ€"conâ€" demnatoryâ€"private enterprise agailnst public rights. Even if Milne and Sons have paid large sums of money on freight, emâ€" ployees‘ railway fares, stumpage, eltct., they have not done so because of their love for the province of Ontario, but because they found it profitable, camp. When there was nothing to be seen of them at either meeting place or camp Steel called in the provincial police. Arriving about nine o‘clock the search party split two ways, one beatâ€" ing the shore, and other going out on the lake with the boat. From the lake the winking camp fire built by the lost pair was seen and about two o‘clock Sunday morning they were located. In making its way to the fire the search party ‘found packsacks apparently abandoned by Kenny and Judd on one of the trails. Since the searchers saw A bear on one occasion it is assumed that the desire for light travelling came from a similar sight by the hunters."
