Hughes for some fine shooting the latter bad done somewhere.

ANNUAL MIETINO of RIFLE OLUB.- The annual meedeg of the Lochalsh Rifle Club was held at Lochaleb on Monday evening of last week, at welch business, chiefly of a routine nature, was tntweeted. All the offi- cers were re-elected with the excep- tion of the secretary, P. D. McLennan, who expressed his desire of resigoing his office. Edgar Robb was appointed secretary in his stead. It was unan- imously decided to refund $1.26 to R. A. Grant, which had been kindly given by him to the club in connection with their last year's social gathering. under cit:umstances which need not be recounted here, and fcr which he had not been reimbursed. As the Government grant is not sufficient to defray the expenses incurred in the operations of the club, the executive wish it to be clearly understood by the members that an annual fee of fifty cents will be required of each meo,tter in accordance with the regu- latioi.s. which call for some such an- nual i e. The officers of the club are: Joh'. McIntyre, captain ; Dune. C. Mcli • • , i ie, 1st lieutenant ; Dune.

The Act of 1910, Chapter 9p section three, subsection 4, amended the Act of 1908 as follows : " 141 The initiating municipality may "make agreements with any bank or "with any person or body corporate "for temporary advances and loans for "meeting the cost of the work until "the completion thereof, and may then "pass the necessary bylaw autism izing "the issue of debeutures nut of the "pa oceete of which the amount of the "temporary loans and advances shall -be paid as a first charge, but the by- law for the issue of dntuies, shall "be passed not later than two years "after the initiating municipality shell "have enacted the bylaw for the estab- "lish::tent of the local telephone eye - "tem. and the debentures under said "bylaw shall be issued within twelve "months after the passing of such by - "law." Having passed the bylaw to raise the money it was, under the above sec- tion, the duty of the council during 1911 to issue debentures, sell same and pay off the money borrowed on the credit of the township for the building of said system. The council should also have shown in their annual state- ment what money had been borrowed on the credit of the corporation Tho rat •payers are entitled to this inform- ation, and according to law should have been furnished with it.
