MUNICIPAL MATTERS.
,
. ,
`The time is fast approaching far.the se-
lection of repsesentatives to serve at our
municipal boards during the ensuing,year.
So tar there has been scarcely a ripple
upon thesurface that would "indicate the
Intetitions of it-idivi ua,s, or of the piiblTc.
It,looks as if the latter were so content
with" the work accomplished by this year's
Council that they have no "desire for it
change, and, would be well satisfied., to
have our town affairs managed by the
same hands that 'have conducted thews so
-well during the past year or two. But
while the public may be satisfied in a
general sort of way with the existingstate
of affairs, it may happep that some .of-
thoses,vho have been devoting their time
and energies tdthe sei vice of, the inuei-
eipality will feel that they have done their
share of:public "duty, and that: it is their
turn to enjoy a season of repose. We cans
net expe,ct that men who have their regu-
lar business to attend to will dentinue to
sacrifice their time, year after yearfor
the benefit of ,others equally' able «fo fill
the positions and quite as liable to bear,
their share of the respOnsibilities of °office.
It is only nataral; therefores that'sothe of
(he older beads may conteniplate retire-
ment, and it would be as well , for. those
who take an interest in municipal affairs
to leols to the younger, Members of the
,community to come forward and assialie-
their share of the burden of government,
Mayor Forrester,, it is said, wishes to, re-
stires_whilesthere ,aressa- gooel-many who -
insist on Isis continsiing in offide. Should

again be a candidate for Reeve.: 'There,
are a "somber of men' in town ,viilio are
qualined. te :discharge the duties of this
office, butthey will not accept it.
. ,
For the positions of Reeve and deputy,
it is reported that it tontest willtake place,
but who will be the 'opponents' ,of. „these
officers, assuming that they will run again,
it is impossible to say. One or two names
are mentioned,but they are regardedmore
as improbables than certainties. As there
is alWays more or lesichange in the Coun-
cil Board,m
it is safe to surise that there
will bethis year. , - '

It would be advisable to take the sub-
