X . K « rT f ORONO WEEKLY TIMES CLARKE ACCLAMATION (Continued from page one) courtesy and i-ou-'deration--equal rights. to: all and special privileges to name, ■ Deputy-Reeve Patten spoke briefly of the work done by the council during during title year -and llhainked' the electors-for electors-for hi- re-election. oGouncilior Win, Lining spoke highly highly of the manner in which Mr. A, J, , IStnpl'as, Clerk -of thé Màmicipiaiity, •and Mr. Aiwdie, tax collector, handled their offices:/throm-ghouit the year and gave a summary of the finiamoi-al : .'standing of the 'council,' p-binting out tllna't altihouglh the expertes this year were excessive, still they had been .a,bite to comic -oütt on top: with rto money borrowed,- no raise in the rate of taxes and money on hand. Tliis report received a; very dfeervihg clap of appréciai Im: from the assembly. assembly. . . Councillor Lowery being the fourth speaker ,of the 1 .afternoon remarked vthaf'the previous: speak-cri/ had pretty thorougMy covered -all he intended to say. Ho stated (bait there bad 1 been some criticism- -regarding (his surplus. surplus. P-eoiple asked why, ilf there was a surplui- why coiuild-n'-t more of our roads have, been gravelled I Why carry a surplus' Willi $3700 less than we had liast, year means that some lime during the year we would have had 'o borrow : or spend less, eon.-e- ijiuMitjy a surplus is always a, wise course. - Every ddl-lar saved 1 is a dollar earned. If it had not been for the heavy stomiis last year we would have had $4000 more for township business. Someone asked the Reeve of this towmship if we had a road policy. Our ipolicy is to rebuild bridges, repair and do necessary work on ro-aicb and maintenance work. Expenses Expenses on roads .liast year amounted to $18,087.69, We never have a delegation delegation coine before us with a ipiropo- sitioh that dodsn'it entail spending money. It: is quite a job to gat interested interested in shovelling' snow in J illy but that it? what the council talked -about during (lie hoit weather and hiad it not been for 'the high road expenses expenses we would have started on snow expenses sooner. We have spent considerable money-on summer roads but we want better winter roads. 'Obuncilkir L-ovekm explained in detail several special jobs that were done last year on certain bridges and the expenditures resulting jn this and equipment. "I libre henrd it said til'iJat the township of Clarke has the poorest roads in the county, but T •would like to eay I have been over praeticiaHy all of them and with the exception of Hiasitingisi the roads in Clarke Towqy'hip far surpass any other township roads. We have been- as ocono-niical as we can be and perhaps perhaps we have "been considered tight- at times but we do not: -spend money -before we get; it and 1 think you will agree this is a good policy. J. Roger Rowe addressed the as- .somtily, no-1 as a candidate for election, election, but discussed fully the questions questions 0# comity auditing and equalisation. equalisation. v * Cm m TRUSTEE NOMINATIONS (Com inued front page 1.) have never been renewed. If they take the wires oil the pales the poles will fall down. There is not one transformer in. Orono- fit to carry the load and if Or-ono buys it 1 hope they realize they a re buy lug a heap of junk. With this remark Dr, Colville came hack with tile argument that if it wals so about the poor condition: of the hydro poles and. wires as Mr. Halli says, wouldn't Or-ono have to- replace them anyway L' There is a great deal tin what Mr. 'Riddell says, $6,500 was handed out of Orono. We might 'just- as well have had it. 1 think although although it is -a heap- of junk, let us buy-it if"We have to n-placc it in any -cais-e, j -Mr. Riddell replied to Mr. Hall's ! statement--thalt the fact "that the -.poles were only a. small ordinary pole and that under the circumstance.- -they mast remember that they /had 1 given uninterrupted service. Mr. Chase is ready and willing to cooperate cooperate with Us. The.-'.poles, in How inanvillv 'were put in, the same time as the -ones in Grono--have they fallen fallen down ? It would not take long or lie of a very big expense to set poles in' Grono. They need not be placed all a! once. All our money goes out of Grom, and n or a. cent comes back. Mr. Roy Corn !► It remarked that in Port Perry they had purchased 1 their own power and it was all paid for., iWe have no service charge whatever. | The question of the fire siren was ; brought up again but .soon: faded in thin air when Mr. Wm. Armstrong saill he didn't think it was- necessary to spend $150 on a new arrangement, that as far as- he was concerned he didn't -see why our present- system wasn't mtisIflaKtory. The fact that some people don't hear the fire alarttri is no reflection on the system, but more reflection qin the soundness with which some -sleep. Advertising of the Village of Oriouo f-or light industry received aho-ut tih-e same enthusiasm as that of the fire eiifen, Mr. Dent's statement statement t hat, there wias no us-e of get- ing nva-iiiifiiciuring concerns in the ^illiage when hydro was so expensive, s itielelied further discussion.
