Without oil there is grinding friction that will quickly destroy the machine. Oil is just as vital to the machine of ‘municipal government as to the automobile; {et some municipalities seem to neglect to supply it. Municipal officials and the taxpayâ€" ers are like two major gears that must run together perpetually. Neither can operate without the other; and yet deadly and costly friction is conâ€" stant in some municipalities. in harmony with other wheels and cogs, viz., the Federal and Provincial Governments and the taxpayers, irreâ€" spective of politics, class or creed.
