my Aid. McDiarmjdâ€"Sir Charles Tupâ€" pe: was a prophet once. ‘ The By law For 32000 is to Submitted Over Again in January Ald‘. O’Reillyâ€"I was always against making all walks 5 feet wide. This street is one that does not need one that wide. It will never have any more traffic than it has now for it can go no further north, and has no feeders. In 40 years there will not be 100 more people thee than, there Ald. McDiarmidâ€"Council pays 60 per cent of the cost and has as much to say about the wall: as the peo- ple over there who pay 40 per cent. The tramc will after a. while need a. 5â€"1001; walk. It the walk is now to go past property that needs no wallj we can atop that, but if it needs a. plank Walk we had better put gram olithic. S DOW Mr. Feeâ€"Excuse meâ€"the people 0V- er there want a. 4-4001: walk and if you are sensible men they will get it. Ald. McDiaxmidâ€"Excuse me, but We have no power toâ€" Two Tenders Ask Fourteen ,and Three Quarter Cents 8 Foot â€"York-St Enterprise Four deputations appeared before the meeting of committew on Satâ€" urday night. â€"- - n 1121!. -.A u) ua" - a v The first was Mr. Ancil Mills and Mr- W- B. Fee who asked that the cement walk on Caroline-st should be made 4 feet wide instead of 5. The second was Mr. Albert Jewctt who spoke in behalf of a petition from York-st people who want to be allowed to build that street between Kent and Russell streets. A The third was Capt. Crandell who; Wanted the fireman questioned as to their delay in arrix'ing at the fire on Friday morning. _ Mr. w. Flavelle and'~"Bév. J. .w. Macmillan were the fourth. They again asked r council; .50 provide 9. public li-bran}~ site. " 7‘ ,__-‘ - ‘zAâ€"n-n mm Mr.- Feeâ€"We don’t want that delay We want the walk, butâ€" ‘ 13 CEHENT WALKS HIGHER Mr. Fee then endorsed Mr. Mills' request. Dr.- Burrowsâ€"I think I have the floor now. ‘Either take that walk of! the list or change it as you are ask- ed to; Am. J acksonâ€"We have followed the course laid down by the statute. . If the people on that street do. not! want the walk and petition against? it, as the law requires, we cannot go on with it. Dr. Burrows (sitting down) â€" All right, all right ; it’s your usual imâ€" pertinence, that’s all. _v__v The first :two deputations were granted their requests ; that of the: third was refused ; and for the‘ fourth, counqu promised tobsubmit a. bylaw at thé January elections to raise $2000 to buy a site with. i THE YORK-ST MATTER Mr. Jewett said that he and his neighbors would like to be allowed to underdrain York-st, grade it and put a foot of gravel on it. Commission- er Chalmers had estimated the cost at $175. The propertyâ€"owners would individually and collectively guar- antee at least $200 or whatever the actual cost might be. ~ , . Dr- Burrowsâ€"What gravel do you intend to use ? .. ~ Mrs J ewettâ€"Pit gravel. Dr. Burrowsâ€"If you do you will have no better street than the others have been for 26 years. It will be better to take the street in with Kent. and William streets and have all done under Mr. Campbell’s direction. Mr. Jewettâ€"We are satisfied for Mr. Chalmers to overSee it. Aid. McDiarxnidâ€"\‘.’e have no powâ€" er to make a bargain with these peoâ€" ple. that they will pay so much. There was a case of that sort in court between Mariposa and some in- dixiduals and the bargain was proâ€" nounced invalid. If we do York-st on the frontage plan, adopt, that plan generally. Ald. O'Reillyâ€"Mr. Jewett wants the work to begin at once. We could get the commissioner to report, and then advertise the work in the usual way, but while it was being adver-, tised the work could be going on, be» cause there will be no petition against it. ' â€"- .. . ‘7, Ald. McDiarmjdâ€"You had better hear him now. You may‘ (mange your mind after you hear him. Dr. Burrowsâ€"I am not a. lawyer. I don’t change my mind. Chairman O’Reillyâ€"It was moved and seconded that Messrs. Mills and Fee be heard, we will hear you after- them; Dr. Burrows. ' Ald. Jacksonâ€"There is another member of the deputation to speak. Dr. Burrows (rising)â€"That's what comes of this promiscuous advertis- ing walks that cannot be built this year. I will ventureâ€" ' Mr. Millsâ€"Mr. Morrison's property would hardly pay for what would be charged against it for that; walkt Dr. Burrowsâ€"I will let him speak after. Aid. J acksonâ€"That won ’t do ; let} us refer the case to the solicitor and l consider it again on Thursday night. DB. Burrowsâ€"Get the opinion at once. Go (in with the work. You have over-ridden every bylaw of this council surely you can overâ€"ride the common law of the country. . The solicitor's opinion will ‘be con- sidered on Thursday night. THE CAROLINE-ST WALK It was proposed to build a cement, Malk 5 feet Wide on Caroline-st for the entire length. Mr. Ancil Mills and: 111'. W. B. Fee asked that it. be made 4 feet wide and not go beyond lot 1‘3 or a point south of the creek over which the work would be very- expensn‘o. PAGE EIGHT Mayor Ingleh-Submit a. bylaw, and declare that if it is defeated the park will be given. wide. ' ' Dr. Burrowsâ€"-We~represent the peo- ple and when they ask a 4-foot walk- we should give it. On motion of Dr. Burrows and Aid. Robson the change was made. THE FIREMEN SLOW Capt Crandell said the firemen did not reach the fire on Friday morning ning for about an hour after it broke out. Their excuse was that they had received no alarm, and did not pro- pose to go out until they hand. That theory Was new to the captain, and he believed. to the rest of the town. He wanted an investigation. He also found fault with the positions of the alarm boxes and was speaking at length on town topics in general when Ald. Jackson interrupted with the reminder that he had been a. mem- ber of council when the boxes had been placed. Ald. Heroâ€"Ii the captain asks the Town Property Committee for an in- vestigation he shall have one. Dr. Burrowsâ€"He wants a. fire in- quest. - . Chairman O'Reillyâ€"That will cost. 320; do you want the job. Aid. McDiarmidâ€"He Wants the $20. Dr. Burrowsâ€"No I don't; just wait, it is not customary for the chairman to take part in discussions. 1 don't Want. the job and I am not on lthe Court of Revision either. Chairman O’Reillyâ€"Iet us haVe an investigation. -- -v I, - .1- 9L L‘ALOAI- a special act enduring us to give the site. I do new, believe the bylaw would hurt the good roads scheme. People can distinguish between them. was any use in doing that I would favor doing it. We could submit a bylaw for $2500 and take a. plebisâ€" cite on the same ballot as to whether Wilson’s or Britton’srcorner or the park shall be taken. If Britton's were chosen we would have the 82500 to buy it with and if the park, no money need be raised. In that case we would have to gpend $100 to get Ald. McDiarmidâ€"The promise was made at the first or second meeting this year. Ald. J acksonâ€"No ; last year. ‘Ald. McDiarmi-dâ€"We told the board to accept. the $10,000 and we would find a site. I want to take Car-â€" negie’s money. I agree with what Aid. Jackson says about the park site, but what are we to do ? We may need the park for market pur- poses ; I hope we shall, but if we do not take it, we can only submit a. bylaw to the people again for money. to buy a. site. If I thought there ‘bylaw to buy it was voted down ;' then the park was asked and the soli- citor gives his opinion that the park; cannot be given. A legal member of our board,(Mr. Steers.) tells me that thewalidity ofiihaflfl'opiniorn may be itested by appeal to some provincial ’ofl‘icial and at small cost. Mr. Hop- kins agrees to that appeal. If he is sustained, we cannot "build on the Ipark ; .ifihe is not we‘pfin. i I have opposed building on the park. The act says it is to be used for market purposes Many already complain that the market square is too small, and if the town grows We shall have to buy more land. Shipâ€" pers of cattle say there are very poor facilities here and there is no other place we can get for a. siding, because the G. T. R. owns the land and will not sell it even to makes. place to to ship stuff onto their own cars. We may be forced to use“ the park as the town gets bigger. It is too far west, for a. library site anyway. - Capt. Crandellâ€"You hadn’t better hold it here. We want a place where decent respectable people can comeâ€"there may be ladies. It will be a bigger affair than you suppose. V’WY' " Tfie motion to hear 150th sides next. meeting on Thursday night ‘ carried. 4 ‘ ‘ -- , ,,L- Ald. Robsonâ€"I think there should be an inmtigation; Iâ€" Chairman O'Reillyâ€"The motion ,is Carried. Ald Robson-Oh, twas only giving my opinion. . PUBLIC LIBRARY SITE Mr. W. Flavelleâ€"We have though‘ that if it is thought the park is the best site, it could be got insome way notwithstanding the legal a3- pect of the ease. Ald . McDiarmidâ€"Would you favor a. rob-submission of the bylaw for $2000? Mr. Flavelleâ€"The board feared it might make against the good roads bylaw. â€"‘ ‘ A '»._I“ Ald. J acksonâ€"I am sorry I am not rich enough to buy a. site. When the promise of a site was made I voted with the understanding that the cost of it should be. paid back out of the library boand’s funds. When the board refused that, the proposition was killed so far as I am concerned. -Ald. Robsonâ€"We present the deej to Mr. Carnegie ; so we are not deal- im with the library board, but. with Mr. Carnegie. go to that expense. Rev. J. W. Macmillanâ€"Council promised Mr. Carnegie a. site. The ‘bylaw to buy it wasvotedi‘down; Dr. Burrowsâ€" Who would stop you from building there ? Mr. Macmillanâ€"I presume any citi- zen could get out an injunction. Aid. 0’ Reillyâ€"Mr. Carnegie would require you to present the deed be- fore he would pay over the money. Ald. Jackson--A special act would be better than appeal to the official you spoke ' of. You would get his ‘opin‘ion in about four years. Dr. Burrowsâ€"If thevw went ahead to huiid on the park, who \mmd ston them. , w-.- ’; .â€"-.-â€"_ _‘ _ We are not arbitrary or irrecon- cihle, but ask for the fulfilment of your promise to give a site. I do not like the park site myself. When it was proposed to put the fireball there 1 objected, and only agree to using it. for a library site by over- riding my personal views in defer- ence ‘ to the apparent needs of the case . Ald. Robs'dp-It should be 4 feet should lat. The walk contracts will be con» sidered again at tonight’s (11m!!- dayfs) meeting. Dr. BurrowsTâ€"I: an old person stop- ped down onto a. crossing which Is 4 inches lower than the walk and a, thigh bone were broken. should We not be liablefltv ‘ ‘ ' ‘ ‘- I Ald. McDimrmidâ€"We may get. into trouble if anyone gets hurt by slip- ping on the bevelled aida 11! these entrances to lanes. Ald. J acksonâ€"Peterboro was held liable in such a case as Md. McDiar.‘ mid mentions. . Mayor Ingleâ€"After being in Lon- don- I am very proud of our walks. Some places in the London walks jolt down seven or eight inches. Ald. O'ReiIIyâ€"Dr. Burrows voted to let Mr. Chalmers go there. Ald. Hareâ€"Yes he did. Ald. Jacksonâ€"I am only saying that such insinuations should not be made. I favar letting the contract now. Ald. O’Reilly-Jfllo is doing it. ? Dr. Burrowsâ€"I am only saying he should not do it, either at the hos- pital or'elsewhere. Hold over the contracts and do away with a. comâ€" missioner for the rest of the year. Ald. Jackson-Mr. mvelle asked council for the 1mm of Mr. 01ml. mere at the hospital and it Was granted. Ald. McDiarmidâ€"Oh, don’t take any notice of Burrows. He is al- ways chewing. ~ next year's council. ' Ald. McDiarmidâ€"Put the three sites on a. belief, This proposition moved Ald. Rob- son to hearty laughter. Dr. Burrows â€" I have been much amused but very little instructed by the speech I have just heard. Ald. McDiarmidâ€"Nobody could inâ€" struct you. - look at such a ballot as you talk of. I don’t want ~the library near meant I believe a suitable site could i! got south of my place and at a low price. That is my position. » Ald. McDiarmidâ€"Just another tool p08it10n . Dr. Burrowsâ€"I favor that site be- cause we can get it for nothing Mr. W. Flavelleâ€"The bylaw did not have a fair show last time. ' We pro- pose to make a regular campaign with lantern views of the building. We have chosen the present plan af- ter a lot of investigation and think we have a model plan. An aldermanâ€"Will your plan cost as muchaswasreportedinthepaper? Mr. Flavelieâ€"Those figures should not have been published. We agreedâ€" Dr. Burrowsâ€"It was the duty 0! the press to.publi3h them. Mr. Flavelle â€" They were wrong ; some member oi the board acted in. bad faith ;, we meet! not to ‘tell What. the figures were. The architect said in justice to his clients they should be kept secret. The Watch- manAVarder should not have puma!!- ed them. I didn’t like that article. I was surprised at the Watchman- Warder. The article shoWed a bad spirit. .That is not the spirit in which the board is taking hold of this question. The article should not have been published. Mr. (naming the Watchman-Wade: ire- porter) knows better and should not have done it. This is a matter that concerns the town and we want the press‘ to help. It was very union-t- unaite that the figures were published and that sort of an article should not have been published. Dr. Burrows-Those estimates have been made when the price of labor and material is high. The present. commissioner is not. satisfactory, so I move the contract he held over. The commission; should not under- take work from private individuals. "I am not tenderingfrr’eplied the doctur. “You said there would be others if we let it. stand till tonight, " rejoin- ed the chairman. “Oh, I did it just. to give anybody a chance,” was the doctor’s defence. Geo. Coombs and Mr. Boguc war. the only tender-erg, and their prices were practically the saine at 14} cents a foot. We can put up a. strong campaign and carry almost. 'any {nylaw tint may be submitted ; but I have more tuith in the judgment of the bound in selecting asite than in that of the people at large. Dr. Burrowsâ€"Re people are 09908- ed to increasing the bonded debt. ReV. J. W. Macmillan-We could find no Way of giving a choice of sites without hurting the general when. "Where are the tenders you said would be in, In‘. Burrows 1' " asked Chairman O'Reilly. 'THE WALK TENDERS The tenders left OVer, at Dr. Bur- rows' request from last meeting were opened. Ald. O'Reillyâ€"If the people vote heartily aghinst using the park, the legislature would not legalize its use. Dr. Burrowsâ€"Md. Jackson says the room will be needed for market. pur- poses. When that was agreed re- garding the fireball We were told the hall would make more room. If one building makes more room. surely two will make more still. Ald. Robson usotl the old saying about consistency being a, jewel, aghinst Ald. Jackson's fear now that the market square would be too small. MINOR MATTERS Wooden additions to the snowplow Shara will throw the snow further out so that it will not fall back Into the track so much. The entrance to the drain crossing the lots from the cbrner of Wellington and Cambridge- sts will be closed. A crossing will be put south from Ald. Robson's store. The chief will see if the ms are shunted or left standing. more than the law allows on the crossing in front of Mills’ store in the east ward. Mr. W. B. Fee ofiered to give a. free site in the east Ward, and put up with the five foot walk, it it, was accepted. Ald. Jackmn moved, seconded by Ald. Hore that a. bylaw for $2000 be submitted. The motion carried. Dr. Burrowsâ€"Let the board bring some definite scheme. Ald. McDiarmidâ€"You don't know where you are at. 7A Ald.
