amused considerable indignation, and it is
whispered freely around that 't certain re-

sentative for the north east ward, but I can-
not imagine that this wonderful typo of
economy would so far forgot himself as to
allow any such motive to prevent him from

owes and promised to perform to the rate-
payers. Now, I do not mean' to contend that
$75 is too ranch for performing the import-
ant duty of collector, but I' do emphatically
say there was 'undue haste in making the
appointment, There should have been more
time taken to ascertain if the work could be
done for lose money. I think the new mem-
ber would have displayed. more common
sense had he left the moving of this
appointment to an older member of the
board. But no! he wanted to have memos=
enforced. Mr. Editor, do you see any in-
consistency or hypooricy manifested in this
gentleman's action as far as economy is con-
cerned ? Like Artemns Ward, he has not
the least; objection to sacrifising all his re-
latives even to hie thirty-second cousin, in a
similar manner. Thanking you for the space
allotted, I remain yours truly,
