SEWER Alderman O’Reilly was impressed while in Orillia last Friday with the usefulness of the receptacles they have on the streets of that town for depositing papers and dust swept up from in front of stores. and he thought Lindsay would do well to adopt the same .plan. COUNCIL COMMITTEES. The sex'eral committees met and passed the reports for July. Somee ohdectiOn was raised as to the. pay.- ment of $2 a day forspecial con- ; . each. Mr. Hare and Mr. Robert Naylor were present and spOke forthe peti- xioncrs. Their plea is that the pri- vate Sewer is sufficient for the needs of the residents and it 'is built. to the river. Those who have not con- nected their drains with it are at liberty to do so. Mr. Sisson was present and in- formal the council that his property is not connected with the drain and he is told that it cannot be successfully connected on account of the sewer being higher than his drain would be. - -- ”A _.1.- n.0,; before the Council. - Meanwhile the commissioner’s re- port and the petition were filed. It was received on motion of Mr. O'Rvmv that council prepare a veti- tion to the Dominion government asking that a. bridge be built span- ning the Scugog river at Colborne street. as the bridge is greatly needed by.the people in both Sec- tions of the town. 0n the report of Commissioner 0’- Neil the council passed resolution to build on the initiative plan a gran- olithic walk on Albert street "from Kent to Durham streets. four blocks. the walk to .be four feet Wide.

Begg and McFadden the petition was referred to the board of works. Later in the evening. when the council was again in session this question was again dls‘cussed. The question of the re- sponsibility of maintaining 'the sewer along the county jail property which is exempted from taxation, whether it should be built at the expense of the town or county,’uas considered. The mayor took. the ground that the property is exempt- ed from taxation at the expense of the town. and'the town should build and maintain the sewer. The alder-men endeavored to a!" iye at srme conclusion and take some definite action. but there are interâ€" 85:5 to Consider an all sides. and the question will again be brought h0fnl‘a‘ the council. - Meanwhile the commissioner's rc- 3631.) u v. , _ town bzing opposed, and it 'cost some of them from $100 to $130 U) as“ W vu Mr. Hore said that others who are absent Could be got to Sign the peti- tion against building the sewer, and the people who want. it now are the ones who opposed it before. uThe Mayor and Messrs.
