months Of agitation on the part
of the Robin government and by vir-

taken at the regular municipal cleo

municipality instituting its own tele-

a popular one, Tuesdays vote being
in favor Of the measure. -
Mr. Robin s government spared no
effort in intoxicating in the minds of
the electorate the advantages OF a
municipal telephone service and the
monopoly. Many meetings were held
in various parts of the province, great
quantities of literature dealing with
every phase of the question were dis
tributed and no effort spared to boost
the government proposal. =st 5t = !.

the intervention Of the Dominion gov

The action of the board was the out
come of the serious fuel famine which
has been felt thruout the greater part
