We do not for a moment wish to injure Mr. Crawford. nor yet do we Wish to allow sentiment to run so. high that the majority may be caused to sufier for the sake of one or two. The good of the whole town should be taken inqo con- sideration in every broad minded mu- nicipal movement. If Mr. Crawford could supply the demands of the town and hold out an inducement in that direction, his appeals to vote the By-law down would be much more in order. But he hasn’t the water and he can’t do it, A letter from Mr. Crawford ap- pears in this issue opposing the By- law. It came so late that we have neither the time nor space to devote to a full answer. Mr. Crawford, however, has been consistent from the first in regard to the purchase of the Well and the installation of a system of town waterworks. It must not be forgotten that Mr. Craw- ford is one of the owners of the only so-called system of waterworks now in Durham, and the installation of a proper and adequate system would naturally interfere with the concern he is interested in, and it will. there- fore. not cause any surprise to hear him appeal to the elect’ors'to vote down the By-law. The plans referred to in regard to Other sources of supply are no doubt reasonable, but quite as visionary concerning cost and equipment as the one to be submitted. The bare, bald statements in the closing paragraphs of Mr. Crawford’s letter and the appeals to vote down the By-luW are more a matter of sen- timent than argument. and a careful perusal, we think. will cause them to appear as such to every u'nselfish elector. To think that a. good sys- tem of Waterworks would cause a decrease in the town’s population is preposterous and absurd. THE Alaskan Boundary Line DiSpute has been decided to the loss of Canadian interests. In every ter ritoial treaty so 'far the Yankees get the best of us. The Canadian Press is a unit in condemning Lord Alvers- tone. The Yankees should now put in a claim for the wtole of Canada and by putting English bloods on the Commission they would be sure to get it. Our population is over 1700 if the assess ""3 figures count for anything. This made an increase of about 300 since the taking of the decennial cen- sue in 1901, and an admitted increase ..f ox'er live hundred during the peat tivé years. Our Debr-mture debt as 1 appears. is not an exact measure of our indebtedness as a municipality as a large block of it is repayable to the town and. other large amounts are incuried through local improvement. The in“ u is in good sh ipe financially and is much in need of a Water ays- lem. Longs DAY ALLIANCE on Thursday evening: the 220d insg. Rev. W. R. McIntosh.

THE citizens of Durham were shocked on Thanksgiving Day to learn of the death of Miss Ryder, who left her position of head milliner in Mr. Ireland’s Store about two weeks previous when taken with typhoid fever. Full particulars have nor been received, but as reports came of her improved condition dur- ing: the early part of the week we presume that ssme complication must have set in. We can only speak in highest praise of the honest genial chriStian character of the deceased younglady. IT Will be noticed elsewhere that Disnrict Diputy Grand Master Work- man H. H.
