It was a stirpr:se to him that his name had been rneuttooed for the mayoralty. Hs tbaokd those who had shown their ooefidenoe to him by plac!og him to nomination. He thought Mayi:r 11 ikon had given a very poor exou.e for the extravagaom of the past year. The 000nhil of 1899 had left 516,000 to Inc good, and they might have bad • very sucosuful ',tar and might have built all the grauolithio walks without bor- rowing. A year ago there was • great deal of discussion about the waterworks ohim• uey ; it was stated that the chimney would be a fuel sayer, but there had imitated been as ioorease, and toothed of burning low -quality ooal they were using the very best Medallion.
