Mayor Hutchison occupied the chair, Hill, Norgate, Dickson, Saunder- son, Linden, being also! 'present. "The minutes of previous meet- ngs were and finally adopted. Some correspondence was sub- mitted; including an application from M. Bailey to be allowed the same rate on power for his mov- ing picture machine as was given ion other motors. The request was granted, with a minimum of $2.50. A great number of visitors were present on various matters--num- bering at least a dozen at one stage. . The Mayor suggested that they be heard at once. Wm. Tew stated that he was laying gravel on the Barclay road, and made an offer to gravel the section within the town limits. 'The road and Bridge committee were instructed to meet him and make arrange- ments. Tom Lewis Somplaified that he had been improperly assessed $9 in pound fees, and explained that he thought the pound keeper had been somewhat vigorous in apply- ing the By-law. "He applied for [re-imbursement. The Mayar sug- gested 'that iti was rather a tech- Council to. decide, and asked that ihe laid over. Dr Dingwall appeared with a petition to have an 8-in. drain Taid along King Street, which he con- sidered large enough to carry off all drainage. As edical health officer he pointed out the absolute: necessity for the drain in the in-! terest of public sanitation. - After discussing the matter Council decided to lay a 12-in, pipe, which would allow surface water to be drained at the same time without adding unreasonably to the cost. This would allow of the unsighily ditches being filled up. As expert for the telephone com-| pany he explained the present' position of the contemplated sys- tem, and said that as soon as the permit from the Railway Board was received they would be ready to go ahead, and he believed a system would be in operation) by, September. of several householders who wish- ed to be connected with the elec- tric lighting system. He submit- ted a proposition which was fav- orably. considered by Council. Mr John Rhodes submitted his. account for the new road by the . river, which is now completed and - open for traffic. : Accounts to the amount of $825.15 were passed for payment. Coun. Saunderson then brought. to their attention a complaint he had received against 'the town: electrician. Mr Davis complained. that two men entered his home' to read the meter without knock- ing or otherwise getting his per- mission. As he was en deshabille to bed, he to being put in such an embarras- 5 sing position. The electrician was present, and stated that he was | aiways careful to knock before he yentered a house, 'and had done so in this instance. He had received no response, and had simply. en- tered, as he believed, in the execu-. {tion of his duty to examine the meter. Mr Davis had appeared and some conversation had been xchanged relative to his right to be where he was. Particulars of this light banter were not given, but it was indicated that the dis- cussion was conducted at a high voltage. described unnecessary difficulties | that were put in his way, such as finding doors locked at times | when he was due to examine the meter. It was necessary for the efficient discharge of his duty that he spend as little time as 'possible inspections, and he thought citizens ought to co-oper- ate in facilitating this necessary duty. i ' A hot discussion then raged on | the privilege of an inspector in makinwg these visits, "several more or less relevant instances being quoted in support of various arguments.
