stronger, and the spread between the

A MASS MEETING.

On Monday a circular was sent out
broadcast through the city inviting
and urging everybody to attend mass
meeting of citizens in the evening for
the purpose of discussing the issues
of the election to be held on the follow
ing day. There was a representative
assembly of nearly 300 citizens-a
right down good old-fashioned town
meeting. And it would be well if
many of these gatherings were held,
not only in Sank Centre, but in every
community, that there may be free
interchange of opinion upon questions
about which men are bound to differ.
DR.. T.. j. Lewis was elected chairman
and while it took some time to get the
meeting stirred up, there was'no lack of
Interest after the restraint Of mOdesty
was lOOsened. The issue in the cleo
ton was declared to be the purchase
of the brewery property principally
for a pumping station But the dis
cussion took a wide range, and MEM
bers of the council disavowed any in
tention of putting a pumping station
on the property even if purchased.
They said that it was required as a
public park, and place where a
pumping station might be erected in
case the milling company should ever
refuse to make a satisfactory contract
for furnishing power. The advocates
of the purchase seemed alarmed lest at
some future time the city should find
itself at the mercy of the mill. AS a
matter of fact the city has not during
the past year, or the past four years
ever asked for a contract. The oppo-
nents of the purchase urged that the
city has no use either present or pros
pective of the property for a pumping
station, declaring that if it should APP
pear that it would be impossible to
make terms with the milling company
suitable property for locating the city
pumps. eithN this or some other could
easily be purchased. After two hours
spent in a running discussion partici-
pated in by a score or more of citizens
the meeting adjourned without accom-
plishing anything other than a disa-
vowal of any disposition to take any
action hostile tn the mill cOmDanV

The Municipal Election.

Feeling was high on election day,
and from the opening of the polls till
it's close there was manifest consider
a0le bitterness. Groups formed at
various points and at frequent inter-
walls, at times discussion was loud and
not always in choicest language.
The vote, however, was not DIS large
as was anticipated in either ward, the
total in the city being 391 as against
534 cast at the general election last
fall, while the issue was clouded over
by a half score of foreign and extran-
Gus circumstances, it was supposed
to be the purchase of the brewery
property principally for pumping
station for the city water works. In
the first ward Ransom Buck repre-
scented those in favor of such purpose,
and John McGibdon against it. In the
second ward, George c. Ingram was
the candidate for and William Scher-
ffius against. The result was as fol-
lows:

OLD YEAR, FAREWELL!

The year 1897 is dead-one of the
most remarkable and memorable of
all the years, born in the dark hours
of want and misery, when all hope
seemed to have fled, its short career
has brought to millions the blessings
of peace and prosperity. A poet mus
ing on the doorstep. in the twilight Of
shat dying year might have seen the
strange paradox of a nation almost
starving in the midst of plenty, and
then through a rift in the fog of dis
trustfulness came the sunshine of a
new hope, and the poet still dreaming,
at the noontide of that dreadful year
might have seen the most gigantic
struggle since ever undertaken ard
then between midnight and morning OF
the third day of November he might
have seen the gaunt for-n of want stink
off hand in hand with the defeated
hosts and lay down in utter despair
before the rising sun of prosperity.
Every field on every farm in the north
west, laughing at its munificience, has
bid it hail and farewell and the loom
and spindles of every factory in the
East sings a requiem to the old, and a
glad anthem to the new year, while
every man, pausing a while, breathes
a silent prayer that the passing away
of 1897 may not carry with it the por-
tentious schemes and high hopes that
have builded themselvs in the more
gracious days of the dying year.
The lights and shadows of life fall
fitfully on the hearthstone OF the years
which measure the destiny of all and
the end of the years mock the fancies
of youth and lay bare the purpose OF
each. accenting for all the great truth
that each should SO shape his course
that his going out of life shall no
leave behind the relief of his going,
but rather that the dawn of his greater
expectation shall cause regret, and
then with a cheerful heart we may bid
each succeeding year hail and fare
well' as we place the old calendar
with the new.

AT THE citizens meeting on Monday

was defective in certain particulars re-
latiye to the finances of the city. There
are a score of points wherein the char
ter is weak and inefficient, and mas
much as it is not possible to remedy it
BY amendment, a new one should be
prepared and submitted to the people
for adoption. A law was passed last
winter, supplementary to constltu-
tional amendment adopted at the last
general election, providing the method
for securing a new charter. 1t pro-
yides that a resolution by the city
council. or petition of citizens to the
fudges of the district court empowers
the court to select fifteen free-holders
to draft a charter; that within six
months after appointments they shall
submit the draft of their work, an cleo
ton shall be called, and an affirmative
yote.of four-sevenths of the electors
voting shall adopt the charter which
at once became effective. Now is the
time to move in the matter. Let US
have a charter purged OF the admitted
defects OF our present one

IT NOW appears that the city coun-
ell does not want the brewery prop
erty for the purpose of erecting a
pumping station, but is willing to
enter into a contract with the mill
company to supply power for an in
definite period. A petition was circu-
lated on Wednesday addressed to the
council and numerously signed by the
people, praying that such contract
be made: and doubtless Judging by ex-
pressions of the members of the coun-
Gil nnofficially made, such contract
will be executed. And the city will &C
ouire the brewery property and it may
be used for public park. One of the
alderman suggested that the band
stand could be moved upon (which
is a very good idea. 1t is unfortunate
however, that the city has no band.
The city council holds that it has no
legal right to aid the band-has it
then a legal right to appropriate any
portion of the public property for
resting place for the band stand.

1t seems strange that Time should

and ~ .1rrcr al r',i': IN ms.
Time never grows old. When child
ish plans are as many as our minutes
and our whims Vulnerable, then he
does indeed lag little and our violent
hands come near numbering him some
times; but as soon as we get definite
purposes in life, the rascal takes to
his heels, and eager though we NAV
be to catch up with him, we never
more see anything but his twinl1ling
feet in the distance. And at last
when our steps begin to drag and
faltcr, he circles round and round so
fast that we are sick with dizziness
and eager for rest. OH Father Time,
fOrsooth! Those who call him old
know that time is ever young What
we call the Olden days were the new

our day is in advance of theirs, and
theirs was in advance of those who
preceded them, for progress in some
form has been the order since the be
ginning. All who pine with back
ward looking eyes miss the present;
for each new moment is as bright as
any that have gone before 1t is full
of new opportunities, struggles, disap-
