A lrlcky fire burned the Atlas Woollen MiII. and the town drew the Insur- ance amountling to about 4.000. The Mar- tin Company repaid their Joan the day It be- came due. The tax -payera of thé town have paid $5,ooo Interest "~ these loans, about $ oo expenses 0of one sort or another, and aMout $14,200 of the principal, making $îi,* 8oo or thereabouts that the town pal dfor Luie folly of hiring three firme to corne here and etart business experiments. Beside. this, townspeople took about f to,ooo stock in the Patterson foundry and loti t haIl.

The bylaw undet which these Joan. were granted called for a sinking fund to be ralsed to meet the $6,20c ofa bonus given the Martin Co, which oui counicil of ten yeare mgo and for several vestrs thereafter neglected' to raie, thui. trifling with the towns honor In order tri keep down taxes and secure electione foi the councilors by acclamation. It also be- came apparent about elght years ago thai the Patterson and Atlas comparues would neyer repay their loans. Still no effort was made to raise a .inking fund. This journal pointed out that the towns honor wae ai atake, and that there would b. very littie money to psy the 8ýî,6oo debentures at me turity. An agitation was started whicli plactd a new set of men in councîl, and P plan wme at once arrmnged to collect a sink- ing fund. In the meantime the Ontarioi bank had refused further credit to the town, and to ward off a criais Ex-Mayor James Campbell etood for a time personal security for its finances at the Western batik.
