Ethel Rathmell’s dog had been poisoned, and she wanted a fair re- bate of the tax.

C. Burke said that council was mistaken in its idea. that it could not allow grocery stores off Kent-st. to keep open after hours, and cited chapter and verse of the statute to prove his point. Mr. O’Leary ap- peared to say that the early-closing byâ€"l'aw was bad, and that in the in- terests of Mr. Burke and the other small , grocers, he .would have to quash it. . ‘ “All women ?_” asked Ald. McWat- ters when the lighting petition came in. _ ‘ e It arose out of Aid. McW-atters' saying that some of his. constituents had been toldâ€"and by a colleague of hisâ€"he had prevented the cast ward from getting its share. of work done. Who was the colleague ‘? The ma- yor thought the name should be given, and assured thv man of privi- lege trhat he had said no such thing about him. These were two sentences that rang through Echo Hall at Mpnday night’s council meeting. The speaâ€" kers were Ald. McWatter’s and Ald. Robinson. The latter words were those with which the teamster alder- man wound up the most impassion- ed address that has churned up the languid air of the legislative hall for many moons. In fact, since that- memorable nomination meeting at which the same speaker thrilled the applauding multitude with his dramatic description of how certain civic employee had been "hurled from the throne.”-â€"sincc that oc- casion no such oratorical OilflbUrst. had been heaid in the chamber as that with which the alderman over- whelmed his cast-ward adversary on Mon-day night. "I understand" replied Ald. Mc- Watters “that it- was Ald. Roth“:- son.” That, was the signal for the deliverance, an extract from which, stands at the beginning of this ar- ticle.

I said: '\\'hy Jon't you get to work in the least ward ‘? You'll- wait tillthe mo- iney is all gone, and nothing will be ;done.' Ald. McWatters said he was lgoing to wait till he got the Queen- ist. sewer. If he was a man he would own up to it. But he is afâ€" ter me. If anything has been got {for' the east ward, I got it, with iyour help Mr. Mayor. When that lterrible hole was over on King-st., lAld. McWatters told Ald. Storer it 'could not be filled up. I found a I poor Woman stuck there with a bug- égy and she had to unload her bosâ€" fkets at Staples’ store. I went and 'saw the mayor to see if 'he would ’not have the terrible disgrace filled up, and the bushes were put in and covered up. When the men were out of a job on Bond-st. I told them to "Mr. Mayor, I am sorry that Ald. McWatters has nothing else to talk about. I have had to stand alone before. I had to stand alone before whgn that white elephant ox'er here on the park was given to the Pub- lic Library by Ald.

I had to stand alone again, Mr. Mayor, on the hog parlor, that I can prove cost about $500. It is a disgrace that in a town with a debt. of 83551000 he spent $500 on a. pig pen. Now he come here hang,- ing onto straws. Gentlemen. he'll hang on that hog parlor. When it was proposed to raise $12,000 by by-law, he Wanted to make it $40.- 000. Cree and Robinson objected and it went to the Board of Works. A POINT OF PRIVILEGE Eloquence, thy name is Bob- inson. It will be some time before an alderman disregards the scrip- ture “Lot sleeping dog's lie" or takes chances on a broadside from the southward alderman. As before sta- ted. Ald. McWatters made a charge against Ald. Robinson and the rest is as follows: go to the east ward, and they did and worked on Queen-st, which was a. disgrace to Lindsay. Then this man comes here and talks about me. He madeéno won; for the wand. He is not fit to be in charge of the east ward. He is only a dough man. Deny it if you can. Aid. McWattersffi Ald.

The mayor restored the peace. ROLLER AND BRIDGES Ald. Storer said that Mr. Walters doubted if the new swing bridge on IAndsay-st would carry the road roller. The mayor was opposed to risldm ‘it on either part. of the bridge. but Aids. Cinnamon and Sto- rel: add the iron bridge would hold it. and the new swing should be made strong enough to. I: was de- cided to take it on the cars, as pre- viously ordered, and not. wait for the. bridge, as is stated in error in anâ€" other report in this issue. 1 Coming to that conclusion was not ‘such an easy matter as a brief re- port might indicate. , .3. ___:_1 I‘ll. CONTRACT NO TENDER The next move was a mmarkeble Piece 0! business. The people on Sussex-st. between Peel and Welling- ton want a sewer, and want it right away, Contractor Lindsay had of- fered to do it for $954, and without asking for tenders or advertising the work it was proposed by Al'd. O'Reilly that Mr. Lindsay be gixen the job. The property owners had been there to endorse that policy, but the fire alarm for Pete Massaw' 5 house had taken all but one of them out of the chamber. The mayor approved the scheme, but Alds.
