HOW ABOUT OUR FUTURE? Ts COUNCIL has not yet taken the steps ineidental to the appointment of a town-planning commission, althougl it is understood that Mayor Spencer is giv- ing the matter his serious consideration. As The News has pointed out before, it is not the mission of such a body to usurp the funetions of the council, but rather-to re- lieve the Mayor and Aldermen of those por- tions of their multifarious duties whicl have not a direct bearing on the present needs of the municipality, but still are of to consideration. Take, for instance, the question of paving the roadways. Without doubt this is for sale. In three weeks we shall have ten small houses x for vent Anticipated buyers of houses on easy terms, keep cos - in-touch with us. We-are building 25 to 35 here this season.

F AULT is being found with the pro- cedure followed by the council in han- dling the question of seleeting land for purchase as industrial sites. Tenders were called for and received, but only two of these reached the open council. Many rate- payers regard this as an error on the part of the council and hold that even if the bur- gesses are-asked to only: vote upon two of the tenders, yet all offers should have heen made public. If these tenders had been laid before the council and discussed open- ly, the voters would have learned why two special sites were selected for pu As matters stand at present, the citizens learn through rumor; that some remark ably cheap offers of land were made to the city for industrial sites, but were turned down. Are, or are not, the ratepz titled to know why these tenders w fused? Doubtless the method followed eliminating these other sites can be satis. explained-at-a-publie-meeting. In fact the burgesses will have to be ta to the full confidence of the council re- in 9 FREE INDUSTRIAL SITES A QUESTION-which requires thought is one which arises through the granting of free sit s to new imdustries. The News-is-pleased-to see that the Council, ap- parently, is seized of the import of the sit- uation which is developing. Our cheap power and great prospective railway trans- portation facilities are such that the ci 3 can afford to go easy in the matter of being too prodigal with free sites: It is, of course, commendable policy for the municipality to acquire tracts-of land for industrial py poses, but this policy should be foll wholly and solely t d S a protective adminis- ion action, to prevent seekers for indus- sites from being forced by property- owners into paying prohibitive prices. for real estate. The city should turn these lands over to manufacturer: cost price no more and no less. By drafting the by- laws in such a manner that a prospective manufacturer is given a couple of acr with anoption on-severat-more a price, the Couneil is acting wisely and well and doubtless in a short time we will be in a position to abolish the free end of the in- A Want Ad in the Daily News Will Bring Results, dugement altogether.

Montreal Gazette: Chicago matrons are urging a eampaign against bad dances and smoking by women in society, habits which are rapidly becoming g neral-in-some Am- crican cities. Furthermore, they intend to begin the work of reform right in their own homes. This is the proper and effective way to go about it, and if the Chicago wo- men in.questien sueceed in thei war on vul- garity they-will set a good example to some places in the more pretentious east that at times cast slurs on the metropolis of the West. Stratford Herald: The bravery of the men who obeyed the women first rule on the lost Titanic is the brightest ray which has pierced the dark cloud which hangs ov- er the Newfoundland banks.

For the year to date the company-has-shipped a weekly aver age of four hundred and five thous- and pounds of blister copper, a total ot 6,490,500. The shipments last week were 347,000 pounds, High grade copper matter shipped; last week from Trail smelter reached a total value of 23,829. Snowslides, soft roads and other transportation difficulties that occur every spring last week resulted in the cuttin goft of shipments fro mall pro- perties except those which adjoin Tallroads or are equipped with tram- ways, The Slocan shippers are the Sreatest sufferers in this respect, such Propertids as the iRambler-Carfiejo and the Richmond-Rureka being com- Delled to stop shipments temporarily.
