The council rejected this byavote of 4 to 1. Then on the 8th of August the School Board carried a b -law to raise $4,000 for the building of a igh School, to be brought before the 001111011, for which two voted and three did not. The then reeve, Mr. Thomas Broad, sub- mitted the uestion of whether that was a good or a b -law to the township solicitor, D. J. Mc tyre. His answer was that it was bad. The School Board pro- duced what purported to be the o inion of the Minister of Education, and t e reeve got also the opinion of their la. er, both of whom said the by-law was v 'd. The School Board demanded the money, and went to law because the council refused to ive it. The Chancellor decided that the ownship was liable to (pay the money. The council then agpeale , and the Court of Ap eal reversest e decision, and’decides that t e township is not liable.

DEAR. Simâ€"We would like to know what spite Capt. Crandell has against the Fire Company.: Is it an electioneering dodge, or what'is it? At one time he was our best friend. It cannot be on account of the road machine nor yet for building a twelve foot sidewalk in the east ward. Now sir, when we applied to the council for an increase of salary (from $20 to $25 per man) he was our best friend, he was the man that came unsolicited and propos- that we make the application, promising to support and carry the matter through the council on condition that we also ap- ply to have two or three bedrooms fitted up in the fire hall to accommodate any member who might be out late at night, or in fact anyone who was “strapped” for a night’s lodging. :He said as chairman of the fire and water committee he thought it a very proper thing to have such places. Well Sir, naturally we thought well of the salary matter. but the bedroom question : we detested and never spoke of it outside the company; but if we had joined the captain and helped to carry his little scheme we should now be having his best wishes instead of abuse. Wishing him a better frame of mind, a merry Christmas and a Happy New ~Yvear. Thanking you for your space. ‘ l ours, J. H. NORTHWARD. To the Editor of The Watchman. The Blundering Council. Continued 1From last week. My taxes have become intolerable, and I can’t stand it. Taxes in Lindsay havebe- come a burden and a. rent, and at the pres- ent way of managing our town affairs, it will be but a. short time until property will eat itself ‘ up in taxes. Those who have borrowed money to build houses may bid good bye to the money‘invested,'they will never see it book again. No doubt there is some of the councillors will want to vindicate their actions as well as the mayor by way of refreshing their memory ‘ and give them something to vindicate, 1 will innumerate a few items that I look upon as money‘squandered. ,A LL..A. ,m..nl»-‘lynm knnun '1 “Pull. up» ...v..-J ~i _., First.

Spending $127 for stop valves for the water works worth $72 and of no benefit whatever and part of them lying in John Makin’s shed waiting its turn to be broke up for old iron. Tenth. Spending about $500 on that dry well where no man of common sense would even think of digging to get a flow- ‘ing well, and I see at the last meeting of the council it was proposed to squander more money in buying land around this dry hole. ’ Eleventh. I hold that a species of in- sanity seized, our council, when ordering aliquor at $3.50 per gallon poured down our main sewer at: short intervals all sums mer to k .' it healthy. I have not yet ascertain the amount spent in that way but it must be very great. Is it not a wonder anybody ever survived over the' summer before mayor Walters got in power when he finds it necessary to squander so much money for the public health. _ _,L .5”? fitting 0 sit on, head, I look upon as wanton extravagance anduncalled for expenditure. Iaat around a table In the council chamber in a good arm chair for 17 years, and I think it good enoughlfor‘me, Iandlwhen it was good enough for me it was good enough for any man at that council board. Many a poo. hard working woman in town will have to stint her little family m food in order to (pay her share of_ the outrageous tunes levi_e pay for the b ling and boodlin of this years council. am satisfied to at him vindicate but not: as May or for 1889. There has been harm enough done these last two Mr. Editor as mayor Walters is in the vindicating business he might as well make a. clean sweep of it, and vindicate his care- lessness when he was chairman of the street and bridge committee, in having a large stone hauled and dumped on the corner of the street opposite the Queens hotel, and let it lie there until a. team took fright _a.t it, ran away and threw a woman outbf the the rig, who was badly injured. A suit was brought against the town, and heavy es recovered, with heavy costs at- tending it in the high court. Another matter Mayor Walters might vindicate when he has his hand in the business, is why he should allow the town to be involved in another big law suit for dams es claimed by E. Woods. The suit after ein enter- ed was withdrawn on the promise o mayor Walters having the trouble removed. It would not have cost ten dollars to do it. Now the case is in the hands of the high court again, and these two cases alone will involve the town in our $1000. You gen- tlemen who signed the requisition to have Walters come out again for mayor just ponder over these facts and ask yourselves, do you want them repeated again? Do you want your taxes increased still higher? Do you want the public money squandered? Do you want the poor man who is unfor- tunate enough to be in I‘ossesion of a little home in Lindsay, with its outrageous taxes, to have their scanty household effects drag- ed on the streets by the tax collector, and sold to pay one of the most destructive ‘ taxes ever levied upon a. working peo le. We had the first instalment of it last bat- urday when a poor womans stove, bed and bedding with a few chairs and her hus- bands tools were sold for taxes. No doubt there are dozens of similar cases which will have i0 follow suit, before spring. The worst is not yet told. I was horrified to find on investigation at the clerks office to-day that there is $6700, of money squan- dered, and, not provided for at the time of striking the rate, and I find still further there is $7000 owing by the school board and not provided for, or in round numbers $14,000, that we are owing, and costing us a high interest in the banks, this amount is independent of the $26,000 got by the school board last summer. Mayor Walters has condoned the Council in their conduct then he assumes the responsibiliy of this deplorable state of affairs, yet there are some people in our town foolish enough to want the blundering _mayor returned. It is an old saying and I am sorry it is too i true, that “the public are fools, and want 1 to be gulled” and the more they are “gull- ed” the better they seem to like it. I am grieved to think that the saying of Mr. Jeffery on the floor of the house in Toron- to is too true. At the time we sent depu- tation after deputation to Torento to get relieved of our heavy debt. Mr. Jeffery in addressing the house on the matter said Lindsay had a mania for running in debt and was possessed of more fools to the acre than any town in Canada. \Vas Mr. J eff- ery right or was he wrong; I will leave it to the readers to decide, as a. careful mayor, mayor Walters has been a total failure. As a. private citizen I have no fault to find but as mayor he has proved a failure in my opmlon. - I now bring this letter to a. close by of- fering myself as candidate for first deputy reeve for 1889, and I will guarantee there will be no boodling or squandering of the peoples money while I set at the Council "Bozfi‘d.
