day were that Canada, usually wheat
country will become market for the
United states. The crop OF Canada Is
smaller than II has ever been.
One grain firm reports the sale OF
$4,000 bushels Of United States wheat
IN Toronto. A firm in Detroi, Mich,
writes that they have shipped $4,000
bushels of United States wheat into
Ontario. The price is $1.tO duty paid
and delivered to the mills. A wire from
British Columbia states that the Unit.
ed states wheat is being shipped into
that province and after paying the
duty Is underselling Alberta wheat.
With the impetus given the Cana
dian milling industry by British pur.
chases Of flour and the enormous
wheat crop in the United States the
Canadian duty on wheat will probably
be Inadequate to stop the importation,

certified the payments due on Septem-

delinquent payments were made there
but under the ruling of the court in
the paving case, an injunction pre-
vents this. Several property owners
have expressed their desire to make
their payments and. the city clerk
wishes to receive instructions from the
council to accept such payments.
city Attorney Hammerly then ex
planned the decision Of the court in
the matter. stating that the first rul-
ing Of the court was that no payments
could be received. but later modified
his decision, ruling that voluntary pay
rnents might be made by property own
ers and accepted by the city clerk. but
that no payments could be made un
der protest. They must be voluntary.
'It is the clerks duty, under the or
der, to accept voluntary payments and
he must necessarily collect penalty,
said Mr. Hammerly. Instructions were
then given to the city clerk to accept
delinquent payments with penalty OF
