Jackson rose and read from a copy of the Watchman-Winder of recent date Mr. Pllkle's letter regarding his responsi- bility. It. is as follows :â€" SIR,â€"By reports in town papers of last. week the council of the Board of Trade thought it wise to take up the question of road-making and throw a. little dirt. at. the street: foreman on drainage. I wish the Board of Trade and all other ratepayers to understand that I am simply an employee of the town council for the time being, to do the work as I am told to do it, as near as I can. Beyond a hole in the road or a broken plank my authority ceases. The word "commissioner” attached to my occupation seems to impress some people that: it is very authoritative, but. such is not. the case. The town coun- cil is elected to transact the busrness of the town for the time being. and I am employed as foreman with the men employed to do the work by the town council. When I assume to do any tovVu work upon my own responsibil- ity and don’t do it right, in will then be time enough to sling dirt at. me.â€" Yours, P. G. PILKIE. Ald. Jackson said: The actions of the commissioner caused trouble last year, audit often cornes to my ears that he is saying he does as he is told and is not. to blame for errors. I am not. interferring with him, but: have shielded him in every way. I have even made enemies by doing it. Regarding drainage, I always held as does Mr. Campbell, that underdraining is necessary. Mr. Pilkie says it is no use where sewers are down. He has found tile dry after being down years, but. that. must. be an exception. Last year 1 supported Pilkie against; another man, but. was not. satisfied nor: am 1 this year. The time has come when the town needs something more than a woodworker. The wooden age is past. We have work above ground and under it. That. is why Ashbridge was appointed. The gravel on the bridge has caused annoyance. Neither council or Board of \Vorks gave any authority for putting it. there. I knew nothing of it. till it was on up to Cullen's shop. Yet, I defended it. as an experiment made by the commissioner. I object to this letter. In is unjust and unfair. A clause of the by-law appointing Mr. Pilkie requires him to get value for money expended in his department. He has not done it. If there is glory he takes it, but. if criticism he blames the council. If he makes mistakes let him admit it; like an honorable man. His letter is unjust; The regular meeting of council was held and unfair. on Tuesday night. Reading the minutes Ald. Touchburnâ€"Pilkie has been putting of former meetings was the most extensive down 70 rods of old plank sidewalk on item, if not. the most important.

He would as soon oversee men to do it at. 30 cents as at 77c. The stone on the bridge was not. complained of by this council. The chairman should have things stopped early if they are wrong. Ald. Jacksonâ€"I would not have men- tipped the bridge if the letter had not ap- peared. The sidewalk is only just. finish- ed. Ald. Touchburnâ€"Pllkie is worse every year. He acts as though we had no right. to find fault with him. He does as be like. and then says it. is not. his fault when it. is wrong. The walk he laid near the Methodist church had to be laid over again twice. Council adjourned to meet. Monds y. NOTE â€"In another column will be found sts., with extra for the overtime referred Ald.
