and nothing else yomk flnusuaii bargains ef used oars this is the time of year when many taxpayers are at their wits end to know where the funds are coming from to meet their taxes this is especially true of municipal ities where taxes are not paid in instalments the township of mulmur in duf- ferin county has its new system of paying taxes in instalments under trial this tall for the first time and from all reports it is working quite satisfactory the sponsors for the new system had the idea that it would be more advantageous ti many to pay their rates in instal ments rather than in one lump sum also that those who could and would pay early in the fall should receive a discount this would it was hoped held to finance tho years expenditures without having to borrow so much from the banks the new system necessitated a general speeding up the works the levy is struck in june instead of august as heretofore the tax collector makes his demands early in august and a discount of 2 per cent net is allowed for payments made on or before august 15th a discount of one per cent is allow ed if paid on or before october 15 from october 15 to december 15 at par after december 15 a penalty of one per cent is added for every month up to the time the collectors roll is returned on march 15th although an entirely new system mulmur officials are said to be well pleased with results several thous and dollars were received early on which the discount was paid the bylaw provides that one halt the ratepayers total tax may bo paid early and receive the discount and the balance paid in later

thankful citizen the evening telegram ontario reciprocates the warm greetings extended by hon dr bruce upon his entry into the olfico of lieutenantgovernor the un animity of the congratulations which have been showered upon him in convincing evidence of a general opinion that the honor has been worthily bestowed there will bo less unanimity in the reception of his first message from government house there is a growing opinion which refuses to agree with tho assertion that either government house or the office of lieutenantgovernor is an institu tion which is an essential and vital part ot our national life the legislature of ontario has been described as a glorified county council in his associations with that body a lieutenantgovernor is about as vital and essential as would be a lieutenantgovernor of the county of york or of the city of toronto in the social duties of his office a lieutenantgovernor is to ninety per cent of the population known only as an unnecessary source of expense the administration of sir william mulock illustrated that the office of lieutenantgovernor is neither vital nor essential to cne despatch of legislative business in him ontario had a worthy representative of hi majesty at all public functions it must ho admitted that there are diverse views as to the reten tion ot government house and the office of lieutenantgovernor in view of this divergence it would be traditionally correct for the lieutenantgovernor of ontario to recognize the limitations of his odico and to refrain from expressing his own opinions on the subject level

justification for in creased taxation of interiirban mot or coach services is the verdict of the royal commission on railways and transportation on the much vexed question of the relation be tween rail and highway passenger carriers examination of the full text of tho commissions report recently released from ottawa reveals that the recommendations regarding highway transport are much more significant than was indicated initial news despatches some suggestions are made for further governmental control of motor truck traffic but the existing status of the motor coach in the passenger field is completely justified the commission finds that the motor coach is providing a satis factory service of great social and economic value to the commun ities through which it operates attributes tho growth in its popu larity to its greater convenience as compared with that of railway ser vice and declares that the effect of motor coach competition on railway passenger earnings has been relatively small when compared with that of the private motor car the report also states that a free and unhampered uso of all forms ot transport which demonstrate their efficiency is essential to tho gener al welfare and asserts that the railways in their own interest should cooperate with highway services rather than seek their re striction the section of the report dealing with taxation of the various types of road transport definitely explodes i ho theory that tho motor coach us es a subsidized right of way the commissioners finding that tho coach pays a fair share of the cost of the highway over which it oper ates after examining tho evidence re lating to the contention that the motor coach was now paying more than its proper share of tho cost of highway construction and mainten ance tho commission records its verdict as follows though in the case of motor trucks next to be dealt with it would appear that there is room for stricter regulation and for increas ed taxation in tho case of the motor coach there is little prospect that cither by further taxation or in creased regulation will- the rail roads henollt there does not scorn therefore to ho any necessity to recommend ad ditional taxation and regulation of motor coach iterations in the inter est of tho steam railways of ctn- ada figures tho quoted showing that tho gray coach lines in ontario paid in 1911 highway taxes of m0 per coach or at tho rate of 143 38 per annum- for each mile of high way used which amounts tho com mission states are at least at fair contribution for highway vr a popular minister the late rev alexander mclel- jlan had been the minister at clare mont church for over 15 years and was dearly beloved by his people both at claremont and brougham when the presbyterian and meth odist churches united in clare mont in 1920 he became the minis ter when church union was con summated in canada in 1925 he be came the pastor of the joint united church charges at claremont ami brougham where he labored faith fully and with a considerable de gree of success he was an earnest preacher of the gospel and a won derful worker in all departments of tho church the news of his death shocked the community on wed nesday night as no other event has for many years not only in the church but in the community will he be missed prominent mason the deceased was a prominent member of the imasonic order be- j ing a past district deputy grand master of toronto b district a member of suceoth chapter ux- bridgo and a member and past master of brougham union lodge claremont about three weeks ago ho gave an address at keystone chapter meeting in whitby h was regarded as a man well versed in the craftsmanship of masonry graduate of knox born in dresden ontario ho lived there until he went to study for tho presbyterian iministry he was a graduate of knox college toronto deceased is survived by one son john with tho hydro in toronto and two daughters miss margaret with the civil service at ottawa and miss mabel of the vocational school staff at st catharines his wife passed away in july of this year stouffvillo friends attended the funeral service in claremont on friday afternoon the remains be ing taken to dresden for burial on saturday it is learned that tho deceased minister was identified after the accident by traffic officer hilliard by a biblo in his pocket which con- tainetl the name of one of his daughters dangerous crossing tho crossing where the tragedy occurred is regarded as very dangerous the view coming from tho north is not very clear but it is not too bad going north it is thought that the noise of tho car engine and tho poor visibility of tho afternoon were factors against tho minister hearing or seeing the approach of the train the force of tho impact did some damage to tho front of tho engine his last act the late ministers last official act was to preside at a chicken pie supper and concert at claremont community hall on tuesday
