Some endeavors were made to show that Mr. McKechnie had unloaded Tobermory Lake in the Company for $450). This was a trade of property for Cement Stock. made during the promotion period, and no money had ever been received by Mr. McKechnie. \Ir. McKechnie agreed some time ago to “trade back” if the Company was ness to do so still. A resolution to that effect was made by. Mr. \V'hitton. of Hamilton, we think, but there was no sec-under and the mattex stands just as it was. The gov emuient repor ts this p1 operty 1 ich ‘ in marl the officials authority fox the statement, being M1. H. H. Fan, late superintendent of the works here. Mr. Farr, it seems gave out this infor- mation about a year and a half or two } years ago to the government omcial of J the Bureau of Mines. This was ex- ; plained by Mr. Hoyle, and the contrast 1' between his report to the government ! and the written report submitted that 7 day to the Company was a strong fac- : tor, in weakening the case of the offic- ials and the old board. This, we pre- : same. is one reason and perhaps a strong one why Mr. W'hitton got no i one to second his motion. In the examination and cross ex- amination of Mr. \Voods regarding the quantity and quality of marl in \Vil- der’s Lake. he stated that. as in the case of all marl deposits. there were marked differences, but that in his ex- perience he seven Exaxxxsn A DE- Posn‘ WHERE THE QUALITY “’AS so UNIFORM. It was also shown that his analysis and the analysis made by the government analyst. differed but a slight fraction of one per cent on the amount of carbonate contained in the samples. )1 r. “'ood stated also that he made his calculations with the ut- most care and feeling his responsibility regarding the test. and knowing that any mistake would militate against him in his profession. he endeavored to be. fair and honest in his report, and would not at all attempt to he optim- istic in regard to the matter. The die is cast and it now remains with the new direvtorate to make the mill a success. \Ve believe. we have plenty of good material: we know we have a good mill: we hope we have a good board of directors: we expect to h ave a good wise and economic man- agement. and we look forward to the end of the. year for a. good dividend. Messrs. Scott. Cline and Cobbledick. of the old board. were defeated. the new members being Messrs. Hoyle, Me\Villiauxs and Dyre. \Ve have no knowledge of Mr. Dyre. but under- stand he is a practical Railroad Engi- neer, with sufficient time at his dis- posal and bids fair to giving us an honest administration. \Ve never had any serious charges to urge against Messrs. Ratz and Cobbledick. the for- mer of whom has been returned. Though always treated very nicely by Mr. McKay, we felt that he should not have been returned. but the people evidently differed in opinion from us and now that he is back on the board we. shall give him our support so long as he deserves it. and hope that this. year’s Work may prove satisfactory to all stockholders. money without making a through in- vestigation and bringing the matter before the stockholders prior to taking such action. It was intimated in the discussion that Messrs. Cobbledick and Ratz. were willing taken the option off the Company’s hands and pay all expenses in connection with the deal so far, and a resolution was carried allowing them to have it. Thus the Port ColbOrne business was disposed of. Thme was a general feeling that too many employees are engaged in the office and we understand the pruning process has already commenced by the new board of which Mr. Mc\Villiams, of Owen Sound, is President and Mr. W. H. Hoyle, of Cannington, Vice- President. A meeting of the board is to be held here on the 2lst inst. when it is ex- pected that some changes will be made, and steps taken towards the appoint- ment of a superintendent to take the place of Mr. Farr. who resigned. “'elmve now come practically to‘ the end of the discussion. and we be-: lieve that much good will result from the agitation of the past. three months. ; \Ve hope we may continue in the; futux-eas in the past to be on goodj friendly terms with the management and directors and that we may be in a. position to publish all such informa- tion as will be for the welfare of the Company. Many things had better not be revealed to the general public. It would not be in the Company’s in- terest to do so. We must therefore use descrimioation and judgment as tothe information we give out. We have-high hopes for the prosperity of Erbe mill. Let us hope they will be ; fully realized. An enquiry comes in to ask why stock-holders in the National Portland Cement 00. had to pay a third fare on the return trip when the certificates were signed stating that three hun- dred were present. \Ve enquired of Mr. Ehrhardtwho informs us that the certificates were signed. in anticipa- tion and with a full expectation that three hundred or more would be pres.

Miss Mae Dickenson is no stranger here. and her re-appearance on this occasion has tended only to in- crease her popularity. The Durham people are. much taken with Miss Dickenson. because of her modest, un- assuming demeanor, her utter lack of a still’ and stilted “stageyness,” and the excellent style in which her selec- tions are presented.
