cLimns AND GENTLEAtEN:-At a pub-
lic meeting held at the close of the
nomination meeting on Monday night,
I expressed my intentions of resigning
my eandidittute for the Reeveship, be-
lieving then that there were to be
three or four candidates in the field,
and at the same time being well satis-
fied with the work and administration
of the Council of 1902. Since then
and almost at the last moment for Bl-
ree ing my resignation the inaeicipal
Olerle Mr. G. EL Bissett., informed me
that all candidates, with the excep-
tion of Mr. Cobbledick, Mr, Gillespie
and myself had resigned. I assure you
I did not like the look of things; I felt
that the public interest (mad good name
of our village demanded that some cit-
izen should stand in the breach and
that no matter what motive had
prompted the other nominees to resign
I would not have it said or published,
as no doubt it would have been, that
the civic affairs of ant prosperous and
thriving village wereen such a condi-
tion. No person could be got to ac-
cept the office of Reeve and I thereup-
on announced that I would take the
office, rather then allow it to go by de-
fault. Within half an hour after I had
expressed myself. I was surprised. :to
learn that Mr. W. G. Bissett had not
resigned and would not resign. I did
not want a contest, nor do / court the
office fe one a business standpoint. I
would be better out of naunicipal office,
but I was not going to allow Mr. Bis-
sett to play any Of his double -shuffle
on the ratepayers, and I ain going to
give him a lightfor the Reeveship, so
that if he gets the office it won't be by
any "hunker sliding." The office of
Reeve of Exeter is one ivbich any citi-
zen should be proud to occupy and if
theratepayers seeefit to elect me to the
osition T will not only appreciate the
minor, but will. to the utmost, of my
ability, endeavor to render good, hon-
est ane faithful service; clean, fair and
-economical administration. Respect-
fully soliciting your suffrages and
wishing you all a happyand prosper-
ous NewYear, Tremain,
Yours very truly,
T. B. CARLING.

many of those nominated to the m-
inus positions are far from ',Awe corn -
mendable and in keeping svitii good
judgment. We, like litany others,
would like to know the reason a as-
signed for the many reeignations of
these candidates nominated. On the
day following the nomination we had
a plethora, of aspirants for the various
positions, all apparently anxious and
more than willing to engage in the
contest for whatever 'honor, glory or
preference theremity be in the muni-
cipal arena. Yet we are informed that
eight of these "would be" village fath-
ers deliberately and in a body walked
into the office of the village clerk
about an hour before the expiration of
the time appointed for the reception of
resignations and one after the other
placed his resignation in the bands of
the cletk, one witnessing the other's
signature to his withdraw' paper, like
so many school boys engrigedin a little
game of puzzle of fox and goose. We
hear they offer as an explanation for
their conduct the statement that they
intended the public and the ratepay-
ers should be taught a lesson. What
lesson they intend to teach the piddle
the public would like to know. When
all the expense and work of preparing
for the election had been incurred, the
Public nomination meeting held and
well attended, municipal matters thor-
oaghly discussed, and these gentlemen
pieced in nomination by reputable and
respectable ratepayers in the best of
faith when they accepted their nomi-
nations and led the public to believe
that the business of the nomination
meeting was completed and that areg-
ular and proper election would follow,
it does seem worse then child's play
and was a mighty shabby trick, that
they should trifle with the suffrage of
the ratepayers in the miserable man-
ner they have. We are much mis-
taken if the public will. look with
much favor upon the candidature of
any of these municipal tricksters
shoeld they ever seek office in the fu-
ture.
At about 7.30 o'clock the Returning
Officer, Geo. H. Bissett, took his seat
and aftee announcing the object of the
meeting recorded the following nom-
