THE MUNICIPAL CAMPAIGN.
The co Mug year will be an im-
portant one for G ertch, and the
electors should use t t• beat �mtdg-
ment in selecting from the candidates
for office those who will Most wisely
and energetically conduct t e town's
, atisirs during lila" year': hem'
great issue to divide the electors in
their weighing of the candidates'
claims. There is no politics, furtm-
ately, in the contest. The lot -al opts a
campaigndoes not affect thy electio
of members of the council. All the
candidates are reputable men. The
task before the electors is simply to
pick from the men who otter thein
services those who have the best
grasp of municipal affair. and who
possess in the, greatest degree the
ability to advance the interests of the
town. The only advice The Signal
-
can give in these eircumstances is
that the electors should see that a fait
proportion of those whom they elect
sate men .frith .. -some experience ..ill
municipal business. A glance over
the list of candidates shows that even
this advice is 'hardly necessary. as
with only a:few exceptions the -
inees either are members of the past
year's council or have been in the
council in previous years.

We ars afraid that 1. Clark has
made a mistake in not 'giving an
earlier announcement of his candi-
dature for the mayoralty. potted
a good vote a year ago, whet any
of the electors thought his five py ri
service in the council entitled him\to
the higher honor ; but he has Is*
out of eight during the year and the
people forget quickly. Ur. li lacklin
astonished many of the townspeople
by holding on to the mayoralty; with

nut -anaw election. after the peculiar
developments which followed the con-
test of a year ago ; but he has ivade a
good record during the year and un-
doubtedly is stronger than he was in
the three -cornered contest of lts17.
How he will fare in a straight light
with Dr. Clark remains to be seen.

This is not to it y, however, that
The Signal is altogether plead with
the course Which the water and light
commission has pursued during its
two years' existence. The Signal was
a pioneer in aim advocacy of the
eatablishnient of a commission. and
while it must conferee that the results
are not quite up to expectations, it is
still in favor of retaining 'It. Two
years is not a lung enough period 'tu
allow a fair test of the workings of
the commission, and it would be folly
for the ,town to reverse its footsteps

upon which it entered when the com-
miaeion was established.
We hold that the council was quite
right in submitting the bylaw for the
abolition of the commission and thus
allowing the electors to say once
again whether they wish the water
and light systenss to be managed by
the council or by the commission. :yo
one who mixes with the people can
fail to know that there is a consider-
able amount of feeling against they
commission, and when this feeling
was made patent in the petition to the
council asking for a vote the council
could hardly do otherwise than grant
the request. Apparently this hurt
the feelings of the commissioners. who
very fooli.ebly got on their high horse
and demanded of the council its rea-
sons - forgetting that the council in
Responsible to the electors and not to

causes of unrest among the ratepayers
in regard to the commission is a cer-
tain indefinite feeling that it is not

—that it can do about as it pleases
without the Roue scrutiny as • corn-
mittw a of the eminent had under the

and disa.tWart ion will is' nllay.•el
when en, ratepayees realize that
whenever any rnnaiderable number of
them desire it they ran have a vote on
the question of patting an end to the
eommission : and these who wish to

sponsible to the council tiroughout
the year. The people held no. hohl
upon it except through the yeti
elections to the council. and then only
