HIS DUTIES.
Mr. Plummer contended that the
duties of night watchman should be
defined, that he should be ewpowered
to arrest burglars and keep the peace.
The Mayor outlined the duties, sub-
ject to revision, stating that lie (the
new official) could be created a con-
stable.

ill.
This, however, wits left in tile hands
of the committee on officers, their
duties arid salaries, which iliet after
the Council ineeting and disc,issed the
detail. .1
I . .SOME WARNINGS. .
Mr. Searle said every detail should
lie laid down at the next Council nieet-
ing. There wits often rilistakes made.
He had noticed about a wheelbarrow
of ashes dumped from the library
building into the little arid part of the
platform burned and in consequence
the town inight, h;6ve been reduced to
ashes. The ashes were still there.
THE'STAVELEY MEIVIORIAL IIALL.
Mayor Holmes, in introducing tho
actions of the Couinlittee in regard to
the, Sight for tile proposed niGniorial
librar.y building stated that since their -
decision an offer had been received for
Purchase of a site front Mrs. Thonias
Cooper on Albert street. Tile offer
was too late for the Conituittee to con-

Respectfully submitted,
R. HOLMES, Chairman,
Deputy-fteeve Cooper wanted to
know how the vote stood when tile
Citizens Committee decided on the
rear end of the Market Square for it
site.
The Mayor explained that the vote
stood 3 to 4 in favor of the back site its
against the front; that lie gave till-,
casting vote for the rear Site ; that the
only member, absent was W. J. Pills -
ley.
WHAT'S THIS MEAN,'
Mr. Paisley rose in Lhe andience and
declared that lie had never been noti-
fled of tile meeting. He left town
Sundayevenin and thentecting was

. -c he left he
called , y. Befot
asked those in authority when the
Staveley Committee would ineet and
was told that they (lid not know, so it
was not his fault because lie wits not
present.
OPPOSED TO Tim SITE.
Deputy-Ree�e Cooper (lid not favor
the, Market for, it site for such a build -
Ing. 1-10 said Ile favored .sonic private
property on a public sbreeb for it Suit-
able location. There were lots of pri-
vate properties which could be secured
and he thoroughly believed Ili dealing
with tile public as lip woll)(I with it,

vate property should not be lessened
by it corporation in using. this $10 000
for the erection of a nieniorlal libil'ary
on the Town's property—property
owned by Lhe people.
SOM ' E BROADSIDES.
Mr. Searle made many strong points
its to tile "lost suitable location and
the ground required for public buildings
,
and their ornamentation. He could
not understand how intelli,ent ... en
would so blindly recornmenc.the peoi
le
le of Clinton to build a .morla
Euilding—a library—with $10,(XX) of
mone next Mr. Farran's. No Run
wouqwI
9Wn its window's, lofty shade
trees were thick and high. It would
be a shame and a disgrace. He in-
stanced the mistakes in not having
reasonable ground for the Ontario
street Methodist Church, the Ratten-
bury street church, the Presbyterian
church, and compared theirlocations
and surroundings with St. Paul's
Wrounds. the Collegiate grounds, &c.
e also referred to the assessment of
the Dineley property and compared
the high taxes on this property with
the low offer made to the Committee.

Mr. Hoover reechoed the sentiment$
.
and statenjus I tsilOr tile previous speak-
ers. If the lilt ding was to be placed
oil the Miti-ket, at all the back site was
tile proper one. At the saine thoe he
Was pe"fectly Satisfied tile citizens of

Mr. Plummer said lie h!Ld favored

ed and would vote fou the purchase of

nearly opposite Ttlx, NENA's-ItscoRD
office, for $01M.
Mayor Holtnes explained that the
Conaillittee wits willing to expend $500
-for a lot. At least $5,OW would have
to be funded, so that no large expentil-
tare could be incurred for ground or
there would not be enough money for

ing. He was Surprised at Mr. Searle,
who had so frequently declared he
would withdraw froni the Council if

Now he wits willing to increase expert-
ses to any amount. He (the Mavor)
still thought the front of tire Ma�ket
wits the proper place for tire site Ilnt

TIIV UNFORTUNATE.
Mr. Searle referred in repl to the
pool,, unfortunate late Mr. Xtaveley
with his $10,000, and contrasted him in
Ilife and uloney %vith our expenditure
of taxes. lie would like to know if
&,011inton, with it gift of $10,000, wolli(I
object to pity $5U a Year interest oil it

The Mayor replied that he had used
his best endeavors to have Mr. Searle
act oil the Committee, but lie had per-
sistently refused. ,
I I STRXKIN'G BACK.
Mr. Searle struck back vingoronsly,
charging the Mayor ,with appointing it
Committee who had failed to act in a
years Lime. Then another Corninittee
wa,s appointed and the first one had
never been, discharged. Legally, he
was of the opinion there weve at this
moment two - committees and tile
Mayor wits responsible fov both to the
people. 'ANOTHER PLAN.

Out of the difficulty would be to erect,

TRE MARKET THF, PLACE.
Air. Gilroy contended that of the ,9(Iv-
�
eral proper-Eies mentioned and diScLI'58ed
oil thi4and oil previous occasions the two
market sites were the only ones that
shotild be considered. There wits only
$5,0(Y) to be expended, and he serionsly
questioned if it would be in the inter-
ests of Clinton to purchase ,a site when
we could procure one f4 nothing.
Personallv he had always favored the
front of the Square. If it sbould be
crected near Mr. Farran's he favored
the building fronting Albert street.
Till-, THAT AT LAST.
A long discussion and considerable
cross -firing ensued. Motions arid
amendment-, caine thick and fast.
Finally Gilroy and Walker moved
that the report ot tire Citizens Coni-
inittee be amended and adopted by
