BAD ALDERMEN.
Toronto Has an AlderGnaniC ROodling Sem
satiOn.

BAbAaBua
TORONTO, Ont, Dec. /. AS investi-
CATION proceeds into the aldermanic
Doodle charges it becomes evident that
the amount OF boodling and ~rascality
was greater than could be thought pos
sible. Already damaging evidence has
forced two aldermen to resign and
more are in bad positions. Counsel
for the prosecution read q docu-
ment in which Aldermen Hall and
Hewitt undertook, in consideration of
$4,000, to reveal to the Edison Electric
company figures of the first tender SUBJ
mitted to the Toronto railway of the
supply of electric motors in order to
afford the Edison Electric company an
opportunity of submitting a second
tender, in which they could put figures
that would be lower than those of the
other tenders. Elk Alderman Hal, who
was a witness. admitted the transac-
ton but claimed he was not alderman
at the time. He got 81, 900 for his share.

"A dago was before Judge Carl

R. Smith, charging the Italian with
having broken into his residence
and having stolen some bedding
and other articles of value. Of
late number of houses have been
broken into during the absence of
the owners and articles have been
stolen. The stealing is thought to
be the work of a gang of dagoes

Six or eight of these fellows have
been holding out here this winter,
and there is no doubt but what
they are the ones who have been

This Information will certainly
prove very surprising as we'll as dis
appointing to our readers. All a.
long we have been assured by the
Surveyor Generals office and by all
the parties connected with the sur
vey of this township that the matter
would be hurried along with all pos
sible haste. The surveyor general in
particular was to see that there
would be no delay in his Office.
But here we find that although
the surveyor general was authorized
by telegraph so long ago as Sept.
u, last, to have the matter attend
ed to at once, he has neglected to do
so in most shameful manner.
And the town of Bonner's Ferry
and the people living hereabouts
must suffer therefrom, The princi-
pal part Of the town of Bonner's
Ferry is vitality interested in get
ting titles. The town annot advance
with any degree of rapidity till
this all important matter is settled.
The people here should get after
the Surveyor General an jump onto
him with both feet. Mr.. Petit,
the ex-officer is mostly to blame,
but the present incumbent seem to
to be making equally as poor a
record. They want to be stirred
up right away and in no tame
+ manner.
