Seldom ‘ is any attempt, made by the contractors to do this. I think the principle ofiletting the contracts by tender for so much for the season is wrong. . The would-be succwsful tenderer sits down, and figures that there will be 50;. much snow, and that he will have to makq‘ so many trips. Weather prophesy- ing is proverbially risky, and the chances are that he has woefullyimis-v calculated the fall of the beautiful. Before the winter is half over he finds that he has already done as much work as he will get paid for. and grows careless, and naturally does just as little as he possibly can. ‘Ln fin“- Premier Defends Convention’s Bejeeticn of that Preposal â€"â€" The 25 Percent Petition Clause Covers Case Premier Ross, in a lengthy letter published in the 'Globe of Thursday, replies to the assertion that he in- structed his colleagues to oppose clause 3 of the resolution on tem- perance, presented to the Liberal conâ€" vention, bufrejected by that body.
