maTOI BUTLCS'a ADDIS/•,
Gentlemen -We are met together to
carry on the affairs of the town for 1890.
This will be on easy took. Oar feeds
are very low and • great deal remains to
be done. No ordinary people can carry
on work or improvements without mo-
ney. The waterworks committee may
be required to lay down MUDS on main
streets now asking for tows water.
The following are some of them -Welles-
ley St and part of Britannia R isd in
St Andrew's ward ; St David's, Stanley
and Hincks streets in St David's Ward ;
Bruce (east of Victoria), Nelson, and
Albert streets and (perhaps) Newgate-st
west of Victoria in St Patrick's Ward.
All these are demanding water, and is
view of the disease that has scourged our
town and believed to arise from bad
water, can we refuse 1 If not, where is
the money to come from 1 This is not
easily answered. I bey, to suggest use
way of raising it, viz : sell the steam fire
engine. Wa ought to get $3,500 or
$3,800 fur it. This value put in
pipes in the yr mod with more hydrants
will give os far better fire protection and
mans per citizens to procure pure water
where It cannot be got now, We also
want a hose waggop instead of the reels
as they are not suited to the new order
of things. They are neither so useful
nor easily handled as • seggoo. The
harbor hill also needs attention.
A petition has been sent to the Gov-
erment asking their attention to
the deepening of the whole harbor and
extending the North pier. It may also
be dvisab'e to have soundings taken to
show the Government the need of
dredging. I am esti•Aed f. -roan the hate
seven gales and the open season that
the entrance is greatly filled up since the
close of nark -stem. The Pubic Works
Committee (I think) win cot require
much money this year, as there is ase
new work needed. The repairing of
sewers, a few new drains, or extension
of prevent one,, and putting some more
cmodere on our footpaths is all we can do.
We may have to put op two or three
electric lamp in one or two wards if
you think we can afford them. The
house water service will, in my opinion,
be the woe wetly pen of our work. if
the demand for services be such se I
anticipate it will take about four thou-
sand dollars fox this season. In view of
this I arranged for ten lone of lead
pipes at a price that will to 20o per
hundred ler than the very cheeped
bought hitherto. This le subject to -02
your apprroval.
Wednesday moaning. 15th inst., word
was received that Harry Hutton, Wal-
ton, well known in that vi:inity, had
died near Paisley, of typhoid fever.
