JAMES FAIR, Clinton Correspondence We are not responsible for anything what ver tbat.appears under this heading. A Citizen's Association. To the Editor of the New Era. DEAR Sri.—Would it nob be advisable for the property holders to form themselves into an aeeociation and have meetings to dismiss questions that would come up, that would be tor-ihe benetit of our toe n, as we then could hear the opinions of our nei;h• bore. Take for example the water works question, the drainage question, public health, the granolithio sidewalks, eto. How it oan be done and if our trees would come in the way doing so, and if the prop- erty holders would be prepared to pay the extra taxes it posts. Some will no doubt say, let the council attend it. There are those who enter the council for the name only. If any person had a building to drain, the same as our town hall requires, would it be a sane act to first put down an expensive sidewalk and then have to out through it for a drain; as regards plaoing the sidewalk outside of the trees, there are two opinions; eome say they are too close to the dust of passing vehicles and you do not get the benefit of the trees from the sun; in the dark you may stumble into the ditch. Property holders, give your opin- ions on the association. Yours truly, W. C. SNARLS. Duroe-Jersey Boar for Service.

Sta.—I saw an item in your paper Baying that Clinton boys were not mischievous. Web, I don't know what name it goes by, but I do know that it iagetting past putciog up with. When a person works hard to keep a garden and fruit trees, and about a dozen boys come in and break the trees and tramp the garden, if you go out they will oa]l you names, and yet if you tell their parents, they get clad 'and say they were not their boys, Now I ask you, as Mayor of this town, what is going to be done about it. If a house is empty, they kick in the doors, break the windows, and olimb on the roof and tear off shingles, and so what is to be done abcnt it, leave town altogether ? For there seems to be no law here; we pay taxes and help to keep the town, and are not bosses of our own lots. Now, as e. Christian man and Mayor of our town, I ask your advice about it. Is there no way to stop such work ? What ie a person to do if he can't get the fruit that grows on his own garden ? We • had better leave town altogether, for if there is no way to prevent it, I for one am not going to pay taxes on a place 1 do not get the use of. Ie there any law in this town ? If there is how does it act, or are we to take the law in our own hands. I am, yours, A CITIZEN OF TUTA ABUSED TOWN. [Without desiring to shield or encourage boys in wrong.doing, we think it is much bet- ter to deal with small boys who are more mis- chievous than bad, in some way other than by holding a court over then. There is generally some mild way of overcoming the things our correspondent complains of, but if he wishes to put the law in operation, all he has to do is to lay an information, and if he is able to sub- stantiate the charge the boys will be punished. Unless a constable is appointed whose sole duty it is to look after misdemeanours of this nature, It is utterly impossible in this or any other town to prevent some of the things com- plained of.—ED.

S., with a difficult operation for umbilical hernia on a very valuable filly belonging to Mr Hamilton, three miles east of the vil- lage.

The skin was removed and the cavity laid bare, The sides of the abdouienal cavity, tissues and skin were brought together with catgut sutures, and the whole stomach covered with strong adhesive plasters.
