Wilson, died at Gueliph on May 12th, 1919. For a year or two previously he had been in poor health and from January of that year he had been unâ€" dergoing treatment at Guelph. At the time of death Mr. Wilson was 45 years Oof age. He was one of the piongers of Porcupine, coming here in 1910 and being closely identified with the busiâ€" ness and municipal life of the district. In the early days he conducted a hardâ€" ware store in Golden City and later moved the building and business to Timmins where he had the town‘s first hardware business. He was the first mayor of Timmins and for five sucâ€" cessive years was reâ€"elected by acâ€" clamation to this honoured position. For some years previous to his death he had conducted a teaming contractâ€" ing business, doing pracstically all of this class of work for the Hollinger Mine. The late Mr. Wilson was widely known and highly regarded in the Porcupine and his death came as a decided shock to large circles of friends. The funeral took place at Kingston, Ont., on May l4th, 1919. The many floral tokens evidenced the esteem in which Mr. Wilâ€" son was held by all who knew him, the floral offerings including wreaths, sprays and designs from the Town of ‘Timmins. Golden Beaver AFP. AM., and large numbers of friends and assoâ€" ciates. In addition to the bereaved widâ€" ow one daughter, Olis, and four sons survived. There was a large attendance twenty years ago at a meeting of the Timmins Ratepayers‘ Association, when there was a very extended discussion on the assessment and on tax collections here. Particular objection was taken to the plan of collectinz income taxes. Marâ€" ried men whose families were elsewhere were assessed on the same basis as single men or nonâ€"householders. It was pointed out to the members of the council present and to the assessor that this was not according to law., The law gave the same exception to the heads of families that it did to householiders in the municipality. Some of those present pointed out that they could not move their families here because of the lack of high school facilities and@ that they could not afford the. imposition of the assessor‘s wrongful interpretaâ€" tion of the law. There were some stormy passages but the assessor held to his reading of the law and the council supported him. This plan was mfimmmmznumm Just trot right over to our shop.

To show how little things have changed in some matters in twenty years reference may be made to an article on the front page of The Adâ€" vance of May 14th, 1929. It was headâ€" ed, "See that your name appears on the voters‘ list," and some parts of the article are worth noting. For instance, take the followinz sentences: "Last year there was much complaint and dissatisfaction regarding the fact that a number of names that should appSar on voters ‘list failed to do so, and the parties concerned feel that they have been cheated out of a vote. The fault can be traced to the indifference or carelessness of the ratepayers themâ€" selves, There is time and opportunity given to every voter to see that it Is there, and he should take the time and trouble to give the necessary attention, or hold his peace about t."

Harringâ€" ton, Annie Scott, Iola Dorway, Ethel Allworth, Gladys Hughes and Edna Ducsharme, and by Masters Wayne Slipp, Ernest Martn and Allan Scoot. ‘"The message by the pastor, Rev. J. D. Parks, for the occasion might well be given as the emphasizing of the moral that service to others is the best honâ€" our that we give to our mothers." said | The Advance in its report. ‘"There were many beautiful floral tokens in evidence as symbols of respect and afâ€"' fection for Mother on this Mother‘s : sult the assessor‘s roll or secure any information might have better opporâ€" tunity to do so at their leisure.
