' THE ELECTORS ARE DROWSY. Woodstock is having an experience which may come to any city under similar circumstances, It wants a new | school. Indeed the people some time ago because aroused upon the subject | of education, and in January elected or re-elected those who were inclined to be animated by a desire to meet the people's wishes, One of the results was the proposul to add to the school accommodation, and a money by-law was prepared and submitted t, a vote of the qualified voters, It was defeat- ed, This was a surprise for the trus- tees, and one they were not looking for. Of over 4,000 possible votes less than 700 were polled, or as the Senti- nel-Review puts it, "less than a quar- ter of the possible vote was register- ed against the by-law." The anomaly was also presented of one of the most active champions of the new school; working the hardest against the by. law, and presumably on the ground] did not suit him. , - The defect in this campaign--the de- fect which is evident Wm many other appeals to the people--is this: That the opponents of a4 measure were more active thalt its supporters, or rather they more interested in seeing that the available votes were polled. Sometimes there is a change of hase, and the voters for a measure only are in evidence, the opponents of it. not deeming it worth their while to go to the polls and vote, 4 were One thing more--the summer ig not the time in which te hold the bye- election which is not political. The electors cannot be induced to express an opinion, and the issue goes by de- fault. In other words a few interested persons may control the situation through the indifference of the many.

The, works department should have its ol hose supply, and maintain it out of the annual ap- propriation which is at its disposal.

Certainly diz. ging through the lawns would be much easier and cheaper than the same through the hard roadbed, and much more could kg done in the soft- er ground in the 'same space of time than in the road. So digging two ditches would not cost much more than digging one as at present. At the same time, there . would be no branch draing from the centre to each house, and this would considerably lessen the amount of dio%ing to be done and pipe to be used. Then if any changes were to be made later on, or il any breakage occurred, it woilld not be necessary to tear up the road but only , the lawn. If this sys tem were once in action, the roads of Kingston would picsent a new an- pearance.
