At It is nearly useless trying to reform Village policy and rehabilitate the Municipal Council in public confidence if our leading citizens do not help in the work. There is a. kind of distaste abroad for municipal duty.

The time is close at hand‘to apply the remedy. \Vhile these general remarks are applicable to almost every munici- pality as well as to Millbrook we wish to emphasize if possible the fact that just as “ England expects every man to do his duty ” so it is the bounded duty of each and every elector in Millâ€" brook to see to it that the best material is selected to represent the interests of our village, upon our municipal and school boards. Being entirely a new comer, we may be allowed to make these remarks divested of any personal animus or private predilections. The very best men may be now at- the helm for ought that we know, but of one thing we are convinced and that is for all there is in sight to show for the outlay, the levy of 2 cents on the dollar for our village is too high by one quarter, but the 20 mills we are in- formed are not sufficient to carry the business forward until the. taxes of 1894 are due, it requires 24 mills according to the estimates of the council themselves, which deficiency will have to be borrowed to complete the year’s expectations. No doubt this phase of the question will be fully explained to the electors on nomina- proud of the part he took while mayor in putting the elty in the front rank of well-administered communities. Let our leading men get rid of the notion that; civic affairs can take care of them- .selves, and that no particular harm is done to material interests by a second- tion night.
