Bishop, who recently pur- chased the hardware stock from Mr. Cobbledick. "Mr. H. Bisnnp is now carryieg on a hardware business in Exeter. By his removal Parkhill loses a citizen, who was active and energetic in his business, liberal and enterprising in the discharge of public duties, and socially a smiling package of animat- ed affability. He will be much missed in the town, in the church and.at soc ial gatherings. We wish him success in his new horse, If we mistake not his rare qualifications for presiding at tea -meetings, etc., will soon become evident to the good people of our sister town. Chesley has decided to have the taxes paid to the village treasurer and to dis- pense with a collector. For ourselves we have never been able to see why this plan could not be adopted in all villages and towns. In Exeter the Treasurer has an office and why the taxes could riot be paid into him as well as to a collector our readers may be able to explain for we cannot, With taxes this year at 14 mills on the dollar and never likely to go below 14 mills, any unnecessary expenditure on the part of the council is blameworthy. Further, we chink the taxes should be paid in instalments. In this way money would be available by the council with- out so much discounting and the rate- payers would receive the benefit in- stead of the bank. Before action can now be taken on these matters, the ratepayers will bave plenty of time to discuss it and we would like to see this done. The Tate Andrew Ri.rlxs+.
