Quinn then made a proposition with
regard to the supervision of ad-huild-
ing on the other side of the Island.
He stated that A. A. Wilson who con-
tracts for work with the o. R. & L.
Co. on a basis of commission on the
provide the tools and camping outfit
for making roads and to supervise the
work of building roads on the weather
side of the Island for a commission OF
Is per cent of the cost of the work
done.
Mr.. Quinn thought that this would
be very much cheaper way of doing
things than having to purchase tools
and send camping outfit SO far away
Other members of the board agreed
with him and a resolution was passed
authorizing the closing of the arrange
ment, by four to two.

Then Aylett introduced his appro
priation for the poor fish inspector
who has no chair to sit on, no box il
which to place his condemned fish TO
exhibition and not even pen will
which to sign his name. So it was ar
ranged that he should have thes,
necessary eonvenienees and will now b,
able to interview offending fshmong
ers in proper state.
Legless Inspectors.
This brought to Quinn s mind tina
the inspectors are all legless. It is t.
be hoped that he was talking meta
phorically only He said they had no
leg to stand ON. He inferred tina
they were unable to enforce the Law
until an ordinance was passed en-
abling them to do so.
For about two minutes it looked a
though Logan would object. He di'
start to say something, but the kindl,
spirit of amity which pervaded tn
proceedings caused him to give wa.
courteouslv to Quinn IS opinion and i
was decided that Mr. Milverton shoul'
meet with the Health committee AM
draw up a suitable ordinance.
