A lengthy discussion took place on the clapse in. the hoard of works' re- port recommending that a by-law be submitted to. the people for the .ex- peuditure of $75,000 in rebuilding the city roads. : ' Ald. Douglas pointed out that the board of warks didu't give informa- tion enough on the matter. Before the conneil <oould take action, more tails shounld be submitted. : Ald. Gaskin replied -that the only th'ne to do was to raise .the money by de"entures and spend it judicious- ly. The $75,000 would be paid in twenty years, interest at 4} per cent. The first. year's payment would be 81,900 and the last £5,000. The yearly expenditure could be met without any increase of taxation by good finane- ing. Ald. Nickle said the principle was all right, but the council could not at present commit itself to the de- tails of the road building as propos- od Mayor Mowat remarked that $4,000 or £5,000 a year in patching the roads wanld be saved. Ald. Elliott said that he endorsed the hoard of works ' report recom- mending that a by-law be submitted. The city's three principal streets should be paved, and the remainder properly rebuilt. The council should have confidence enough in the board of works of this year and years to come to rely on its discretion as to the nature of the roads to be con structed. Ald. Rigney said he was strongly in favor of improving the streets. Such a bylaw as proposed would recom- mend itself to the citizens. However, given for the comnecil to commit itself on the nature of the rebuildine. He advised that the matter be held over { for further information. 4 Mayor Mowat pointed out that at present the council was considering only a principle. Jt would have every onnortunity to discuss the details when a by-law was introduced at its next meeting. Ald. Douglas said that as a repre sentative of one of the remote wards, he wanted to see the hv-law passed. Me would like full details first, how- ever: Ald. Carsen spoke on the awestion of permanent roads. He held that limestone macadam was no good for Kingston roads. Tar macadam should be used. The chairman of the hoard of works and the city engineer, he said, should visit Ottawa, and see the. re- sults of tar macadam roads there. To build limestone macadam roads would be to throw money awav. Ald, Craig declared himself in fav- od n chonce to discuss the details. Ald. Gaskin suggested that Provin- vineia! ' Road Inspector Camvbell be invited to give the council informa- n road building. Ald] Graham = ssid that he would not force to nat the larcest part of expenditure in the central part of the city. If the by-law was to earrv it must provide that all see- tions of the city: get 'a fair share of new roads. Ald. Kent questioned if $75.000 was sufficient. for the purpose. He sug- e¢'ted that the clause be changed, fixine the minimum at $75,000. Ald. Ross nid that .once the husi- ness streets were rebuilt. the outlying wards would soon benefit in having a laroer yearly expenditure made upon om. Ald. Angrove favored the exvendi- ture. He didn't think the auestion of ward division of the new. roads shavld ha given much consideration. Ald. Chawn claimed that the slder- men would mot be in .a position a nass upon the detoils of soeh a hydaw. He ad- wiged that the heard of works with- draw ite svort and submit a more detailed one at the next council | first conference with I. 0. Boyer, Apatiar agent of the Semi-ready, Limited, is in town in the interest of their ¥ connected with the H. D. Bivby , Where they carry full lines of these bragwed clothes. All invited to a visit, # majority of the aldermen taking nn the ground that the payment would con- stitute a spedent that would cause no end of trouble in regard to civie employees. Ald. Chown said that he hoped when the board of works considered appli- cations for cutting down trees, it would see that such trees were a real detriment before being removed. The indiscriminate cutting down of trees should not be encouraged. Ald, Nickle again requested that the finance committee present a repdrt to council regarding the shortages of the late tax collector dnd the liability of his suretics, The deficits still stand on the city's hooks as assets. Tt Ald. Nickle spoke strongly against the light department placing poles on the streets wherever it pleased. He instanced one pole at the corner of Gor> and Wellington streets, which was three feet outside the walk and most dangerous. li an. accident took point, the city, in his opinion, would be responsible. The city solicitor, it was said, had inti- mated that the city was not responsi- ble and that the light department could place its poles where it wanted Ald. Nickle held that the aldermen were elected to manage the city's af fairs. He was opposed to the tendency to treat the corporation as something separate from the citizens themselves, It was a eruel thing for a corpora tion to set a trap for its own citizens by erecting dangerous poles. There were a number of other danger traps such as existed at the corner of Gore and Wellington streets, It was moved by Al. Nickle and seconded by All. Chown, that in the judgment of 'this council' the improve: ments and extensions to the plant of the licht department should be made in such a munuer as, without exces sive cost, to cause the least possible inconvenicnce to public, and so as to obviate the possibility of danevr, and that, if necessary, to conform with this resolution, changes be wmecessary in the work now done, the same be made. The resolution was carried on this division : Yeas--Mayor Mowat, Alds. Angrove, Chown, Craig, Elliott, Graham, Hen- place at that derson, Kent, Millan, Nickle, Rigney, Robertson--12. Nays--Alds, Carson, Couper, Doug- las, Gaskin, Givens, Hanley, Ross, Toye--8. Ald. Elliott drew attention to the poor suburban train service {ram the outer station, and the city clerk was instructed to write the board of trade with regard to the matter. On motion of Alds. Gaskin and Hi- liott, it . was decided to have Queen street sewer pipe extension constructed by contract in so far as the under water work is concernéd, and to have all work on land done by day labor, under the supervisiog of the city en- gincer, >A The council o'clock. adjourned 'at cleyen Br hE Any Ache To-Day?

Richardson Has to Say--He* Claims That King- ston is Getting a Better Car Service Than it Deserves, Th following letter from the presi dunt of the Ningstom street ras, company was received by the ety council last evening : "The writer has noticed a report from the Light, Heat and Power com- mittee regarding the contract the streets car company have with them This was brought about accidentally, through the heating of the bearings of the engine, We note that it has been reported that the city is work- ing at a loss by furnishing the street car company with power. This we take exception to, because, instead of a loss, the city is having a profit, antl from going carefully over every- thinz, the profit is not less than 81,- 000 or $1,200 per year, which the city has made from the street car com- pany, Since the present company has taken hold of the road, therefore, in- stead of receiving injury from the company you have been receiving a benefit in more ways than one, mak- ing the cost of your electricity cheap- er than it otherwise would be to the consumer, also giving the people a fair service and making the town more attractive than it was before the pre- scnt company took over the cars. i "We arc very loath to express our selves at all in this matter, but in justice to ourselves, we cannot Jet. the statement go without being challenged when we know that it is incorrect. "To go _ back a little in history. When the ®ontract was made with the street car company for furnishing pow- er it was th t that it was a fair contract for both parties, saving mon- ey for both as any one who is accus- tomed to handling poyer knows that the greater the output of the power the cheaper it can be manufactured. This appears to be forgotten by, some of the public, and the statements have Leen twisted so as to try to show that the city is receiving a loss in- stead of a profit. "The city of Kingston is getting from the "street car company a better service than it is entitled to, that is than the population warrants, A town of this size is fortunate in having a car service, and no one but citizens who are deeply interested in the wel fare of the city would have thought of undertaking to do it, therefore it err eset.
