For years the site on the hill has Men condemned by farmers and stockmen. One complaint was the necessity of having to unload and rv-load hogs and such animals be- fore taking to the station to ship them, but what was most found fault with was the climbing of the hill and the inconvenient way of getting in and out of the weigh scales The ideal weighing place would, of course, be one from which the stock could be turned from the scale into the shipping yard, but with two railroads as lar apart as ours are this would be difficult unless the roads were ln-oua'ht together in some way and a common stock-yard acquired. This seems at present to be some- what irnpracticable witthout in- fringing on private rights for the enforcement of a right of way from one railroad to the other. and. moreover, the cost of a rail- way track is high even if the ground he comparatively level. In llolstein and Priceville, there is one railway and we understand the wales are owned by private l-o-zwozls. The disputed site was just win-re it is for years and to our kwnuvlm'lsze there never was, till lately. any serious thought of con- Vertinsr it into a park and keep- in; it up as a park should he kvpt.

Watt The factory will notbe extended unless the by-law carries, and it is "up to the electors on Friday next, September 2nd, to say by their votes whether they are satis- fied to have things remain as they are, «or whether they wish to have an increased labor market, an in- creased population, an increas- ed value of property, and a more prosperous and pro- gressive town. We feel the electors Will make a great mistake if they defeat the by-laws and We hope to follow the example cf Owen Sound by giving them an overwhelming majority. ‘ The company has also 1400 acres of timber land, all paid for, and three saw mills, all in operation for a considerable portion of each year. Not only do they make their own lumber from the raw material, but they sell in large quantities to outside places. This. every citizen can easily find out for himself. A report has been circulated by one citizen, we are told, that the Durham Furniture Co. is 'now $60,- 000 in debt, and the person who started the damaging statement may soon have the opportunity of explaining himself in a court of law.. On this point, we ‘made en- quiry also, and found the report to be absolutely untrue. When the present factory was rebuilt after the fire, the town voted them a loan of $10,000, repayable in ten equal annual payments without in- terest. These payments have been made regularly each year as they became due, and there are still five years to run, or a debt of $5000 in all, :no part of which is yet due. In speaking to the president of the company, Dr. Jamieson, we are advised that this is the correct interpretation, and if not suffic- iently clear in the pubfiistled agreement, the company is ‘willing to have the agreement so amended or corrected, as to place the matter beyond any possibility of doubt. ' an average of one hundred hands in the new concern. The new a- greement has nothing whatever to do with the former agreement and under the terms of the former agreement the company will still be bound to employ sixty men. In other words, the whole concern will be bound under both agree- ments to give employment to 160 men on an average, men on an average. The extended concern, they think, are bound to employ only forty men more than they are bound to employ now. This is not the intention of the new agreement, which binds the company to give emplpyment to nnnnn \p‘l tle plainer. They have an idea, that the company, when extended will give employment to only 100 men, while the existing company is under agreement to employ sixty A few opponents Have awrong concgpt‘ipn of the by-law, which Only last week, the town of Owen Sound voted to grant a loan of $20,000 to a new industry to a new comer. The terms of the loan are almost identical with the terms agreed to between the Furniture Company and the Town of Durham, with this very im- portant difference, that Owen Sound calls for 'the employment of only fifty men, while the extension to the Durham Furniture Company is to give employment to one hundred additional employees. That is, the employment of double the number of hands required by the new industry in the town of Owen Sound. Voting on the By-laws takes place to-morrow, and as this paper has been stating all along the furniture Company By-laws art likely to meet with Very little op- position. Somehow, we are im- bued with a feeling this time that the citizens of Durham have learned to appreciate the import- ance of the factory and the workshop, and are not going to turn down an industry that will most assuredly increase the p0p- ulation and commercial import- ance of our town. As we endeav- ored to point out on previous oc- casions, the progressive and pro- gressing towns are those that are always reaching out after indus- tries and giving a helping hand to industrial development. VOTE FOR THE BY-LAWS. , DURHAM, 0NT., THURSDAY, SEPTEMBE -‘ I, 1910. SAUGEEN VALLEY. 'l Referring briefly to his last an- ticle, he claims 'that I was a sup?- L porter of the motion to buy the I'McKechnie lot. He has no right to i make any such assertion. The .facts are that McLachlan is the ,party who did the wire pulling in 'this matter, and it was all cut and .dried before the matter came be- lfore the Council. At this time, I lsuggested that the property was all right at the price asked, but we should hold the option until fur- ther information was obtained, and power given to buy the property. Later on, when more wire pulling took place, and plans and speci- fications were presented to the Council, I strongly opposed goâ€" ing any further with the matter until the funds were provided by the ratepayers and a vote taken. er. ‘C‘ochrane also refers and sug- gests the building of the pig pens, and then making it attractive. Just think of the possibility of making a pig pen yard attractive by plant- ing out flowers, trees and shrubs on the lot, with the pig pens in the centre. Oh, Mr. Coehrane! You are certainly a “Lover of Pigs,” In conclusion, let me say, that the vote will be taken on Friday of this week on this Byl-law, and it seems to me to be plainly the duty of the ratepayers to turn out and vote against the By-law, retain ’this pretty little spot for aPark and remove the scales to another lot, which can be obtained where the convenience to the farmers and those using the scales will be . much better. One report being circulated is that the building of . the scales will still go on, and the . money will have to be raised and ; paid this year. Do not be alarmi- . ed by any such report. The Count: * oil has no such power. The rate 1 has already been struck, and cam:- l nct be altered. Vote against the 1 Byâ€"law, and save the town at least , 81000. 1 Thanking ydu for space, I am, . Yours trulm. 1 Dear Sinâ€"Permit me to briefly reply to the long letter which ap- peared in the Review last week. One thing has at least taken'place. Mr. Cochrane now signs his name as Robert Cochrane instead of “Pig 'Lover.” or “Lover of Pigs." In both of his rambling articles he gives a good deal of «ancient his-v tory which does not concern the ratepayers very much. His arti- cles would at 'most convey the imé- pression that some lovei-sick youth of ten years had written the arti- cles instead of a party of his mature years. 'Perhaps, after all his advisors are the parties res;- ponsible for the effusions which have appeared. Generally speak- ing, when you see Laidlaw, Mo'- ‘Lachlan and Coohrane in some. corner with their heads two inches apart, and their noses touching, that the readers of the local pap- ers will be treated the following week 'with an article signed “Robt. Cochrane,” or “Pig Lover.” RE COCHRANE AND MARKET SITE. To the Editor of the Chronicle. The funeral to Latona cemetery on Tuesday was largely attended which attested the popularity of the deceased, there being over one hundred vehicles. His fO'mer pasâ€" tor, Rev. Mr. Little, preached an appropriate sermon at the home. The present minister was also in attendance. The pan-bearers were John Johnston, Henry Hughes, Geo. Heys, Mike Casey, Jas. Buch- anan, and John Reay. The pen may portray it, but. no one can fully realize the poignant ,Q'rief incidental on such an occa- sion but the bereaved ones. We extend our heartfelt sympathy, and hope that time, the great healâ€" er, will assuage their sorrow, and the expectation of a re-union hereafter. AS friend after friend softly in- Vaded the sacred precincts of the death chamber to take a fare- well glance at the loved one, and upon whose tranquil countenance a smile lingered, their thoughts reverted ‘ro bygone days, and with blinding tears they hurried sadly away. He leaves an aged father and mother, one brother and five sisters, and his niece and nephew, Miss Cora and Mr. John Johnston, who will ever revere the memory of an affectionate son and brother. The deceased had not been en- ioying his usual robust health since early spring, but bore his sufferings with patient submis- sion. He was tenderly cared for by all the loving *hearts in the old home, who procured all the com- forts that could be suggested, and spared neither time nor money to bring him back to health and strength. .
