Induction of mo Pro-l Last You. â€"-Conncil lad lild Session lon- The oft-delayed and much~tatked-' of appointment of... a town constable was amicably settled at the Monday night’s session of the Town Coun- cil hy the appointment. of H. A. Fal- coner, last year’s chief. who applied for the position at $200, a reduction of $100 from last year. Two other tenders were also on the table, those of Dan McLean at 8150 and George Mackay at $150, but on motion of Boll-Macdonald. Falconer‘s name was inserted in the. by-law. The salary motion of 8200 by Murdock and McFadden was met with an amendment by Reeve Calder for Slfi‘). but the latter got no seconder for his motion. and the $200 was in- serted. Messrs. Calder and Noble also mount an amendment. on the appointmo‘mt. asking that the name . of HPOI‘SH‘ Mackay be inserted as . constable, but this was defeated. The meeting an Monday was at- tended by a full council. A couple of communications were laid on tine table. one from the London City (lmmcil asking that, Durham Council ,iuin in a memorial to the Attorney- ('w eral requesting a. full investiga- Lion into the recent rise in the price of gasoline. -- r. Four Durham teamsters, Messrs. G. McMeeken, R. Alexander, A. Hillis and J. Snell laid a communication before the Council requesting that a license fee of $10.00 a year he charged for teams and $5.00 for single rigs, with a suitable license fee for trucks, be imposed on all vehicles engaging in the teaming business in town. The request was »lai¢l over for further investigation by the Council. In the meantime, the Clerk will prepare a by-law. -__. AA Accounts amounting to $552.80] were ordered paid, and an insurance ‘ premium for $41.40 on the Town Hall building was paid on motion. The town Auditors, Messrs. H. H. Koch and U. H. Darling, presented their report. and while it was not [adopted at Monday’s meeting. the auditors were ordered paid $25.00 each for their services. Besides the by-law appointing a Constable, three other hy-laws were also passed, one naming a salary or $2.00 each per meeting for the three Hydro Commissioners for not more than twelve meetings in any one year. This hy-law caused consid- Ierable discussion, as it was felt that .it was establishing. a dangerous 1 --__- U """ J v..â€" precedent in that if the Commission- "" ers were entitled to pay for their t” services, the same was true of mem- "0 bers of the Council, school trustees A1" and other town officials. The orig- 0‘“ inal by-law was to have been re- troactive till January 1st of this year, but the Council advanced it G] to March 2nd, and made it effective only to the end of the present year, when it will have to be dealt with by the new Council of 1926 to be- come effeetiVe next year. M Dr. A. M. Bell, who refused $75 per year as M. U. H. and asked $100, was appointed for the balance Or the, year at $8100 and will be paid additional for any services rendered previously this year. The. by-law to increase the license fees on hawkers and transient trad- ers was left over till next month. when a new by-law' will be drafted _ that will conform with anticipated ‘ amendments in the Act now before the Legislature in session at Toronto. Councillor Macdonald, chairman of the Property Committee. reported having met the ladies of the I. O. I). E. regarding the preposed im- lirovements on the Town Hall. He said it was the intention to install 1, a new heating system, re-decorate .. the interior of the building. and n ‘0 make better dressingâ€"room facilities for the stage by partitioning off a .portion of the lower hall and run- :ning a stairway up to the stage he- “.hind the wings. The total outlay " ‘was to be about $600.00, and the I. f). n I). E. were prepared to pay $100.00 of this. The matter was not further , dealt. with other than that tenders '3 are being asked for, when the Coun- ‘t' rill will again take. the matter up 'y at their next meeting. an Several other minor matters were gone into. the principal one being 1° the matter of Messrs. Lawrence and Smith. sawmillers, allowing logs to _. ' ., on the street in front of 0“ their mill on Saddler Street. After discussion. it was decided that the D“ Council turn the matter over to Constable Falconer. as part of his duties were. to keep the streets les cleared and in a passable condition for traffic.
