From John Simpson, 11.11, urging the council to take the initiative in having a corner stone ceremonial in connection with the new hospital. The worthy doctor arriving at this time, he was, on motion, asked to address the council. Dr. Simpson stated he had suggested the advisa- bility of such a move to several gen- tlemen about town and they were gnanimously in favor of it. He re- cognized the fact that it was a , _ _ ,, A 7 ______ 1 county hospital. and that a. general opening ceremony would follow later on. but he thought that the town council should arrange for the proper laying of the corner stone and invite Mr. Ross and Mr. and Mrs. Grace and others to be present. He felt that we owed that to them and was sure they would be present. Ald. Jackson pointed out that it was not 9. Lindsay hospital but a county hospital, and the council of Lindsay as a council were not known in the question. __- A--‘l A Lu ULJV \1“V~V-vâ€"â€"v Ald . O’Reilly thought it would come better from the hospital coma mittee than from the town .counciln It would go better with the county, and would not look as though they were usrurping the rights of the coun- of the previous speakers. Ald. Hore thought that while it was a. c'ounty hospital it was also a. town of Lindsay hospital, and the donors should be recognized by the town as well as the county. He would not like to see cold water thrown upon the proposition to have a. public recognition in the laying of the corner stone, and would therefore ‘move, seconded by Mr. Touchburn, that the. mayor, and Aldermen J ack- are 100 acres each. They are well timbered, chiefly with hardwood. Thm lots are on the Burnt River and within 21/2 miles of the rail- way. For terms, apply at, this ofllce.-â€"29.

Eagleson with reference to collector’s rolls foe 1899 :1nd"o900.â€"â€" Received. Ald. Jackson stated that this "matfl ter should be promptly attend-3.41 In as the collector should be nppn'utvd as soon as possible. Another point was that a great proportion of «the taxes were collected by. the tmmsur- er. This should not be. "The c«-‘:loct- or should be the collector for all the taxes. The present system was wrong, and was liable to lead to trouble and loss. It not only gave the clerk a. great deal of additional work but was liable to end in a mix- up.

Touchburn pointed out that; the rebate system made it almost, im- perative that the taxes be paid at the office. Ald. Jackson maintained that the system was wrong. It entailed um- necessary work on the clerk and au- ditor for which they received no re- compense. The auditor in prepar'ng‘. his monthly statements had to 1'0 all over the collector’s roll to pneâ€" pare his statement. This was un- necessary when the collector could hand it over in large sums. Ald. Hore stated that it was the old custom and he thought no harm would result if it were continued. The collector; had to govern the whole town, to serve the necessary notices and at the same time make collections. Ald. O’Reilly mapped out, a system of collection on a per centuge basis. The éollector could be in his office every day at certain hours and re. ceivc the taxes. There was no rea- son why the taxes should not all be in by th 15th of December the ‘same as in ruraldnunicipalities. It was gime the collector was appointed long ago, but he would not vote for any collector before the roll was re turned, even if it. were Pontius Pilot. Ald. Touchburn said that it was the Wish of council the collector be in the office at whatever hours the council instructed him to be. From D. C.

O’Reilly stated that he was chairman of that committee and should not have been necessary for anyone to come to council to make enquiries about, its work. Ald. Touchburn informed the chair. man that if there was anything that he. did not understand he could get it at the clerk‘s- otfice, it was hardly fair to take up the "time of the meeting. ‘ Ald. Robson stated he was away when the contract was entered into. Ald. Hore explained that it was understood if they did not wish to use all the lights on the streets they could be used in the municipal build- ing's but they: were all used on the streets .'
