THE STREET RAILWAY. Globe says: beyond the limits of the city of 1891 franchise did not compel it to do so is an illustration of the perils of fran- chise drafting. Toronto had the best lawyers that money could hire, and everybody supposed that as the city s boundaries were extended the street railway tracks would be extended also. The joker was there, how: ever, and thousands of suburban residents walk long distances every day to and from the end of the car lines because it has been found that lawyers cannot make a contract the spirit of which other lawyets may not break by an-appeal to the letter. Before the people of Medicine Hat decide to tie up to a street rail- way company let them send a deputa- tion down east to see what Toronto suffers under private operation of the ity s chief public utility. a eee STAND UP, MR. MAYOR AT a Couneil meeting recently, the Mayor and a number of the aldermen took oc- casion to criticize the News for not giving the City Fathers due credit for work accom- plished during the present year. In answer to the charge the News made the statement that representatives of this paper saw the Mayor every day and that if he did not choose to unbosom himself of information, the fault could not be attributed to us. If the News in its issue of yesterday did not give publicity to the fact that the Canada Cement Company had selected a site for its Medicine Hat plant, it is the Mayor who is to blame for the fact. He received a tele- gram apprising him of the fact, acquainted the Times with the particulars, but-tepress- ed the information so far as the News was concerned, Is the Mayor acting in the in Medicine Hat by following such action? .

During the period when Sir Frank Smith had control of the system there was some attempt to keep pace with the growth of the city.. Under the present franchise, which was granted in-1891, there has been constant friction: between the citizens and the company because of the deliberate adoption by the com- pany of the principle of giving the people cold justi e. ? The refusal of the company to extend its lines on the ground that the letter of the signifies can b8-fained from the fact that when the gilvie s. decided to locate in Medicine Hat, the information which was sentfrom Medieing Hat by the Associated Press correspondent was cabled to England and elicited a score of inquiries of the Ogil- vie company, as to the reason which decid- ed fhe concern to piek upon this city as its Western headquarters. Without a doubt a similar item would have been cabled across to the Old Gountry regarding the Canada Cement Company s selection of a site, had the Mayor not allowed his narrowness to receiving this splendid advertisement free gratis. 4 SHOULD BE GENEROUS. MANY citizens would like to see the Couneil reconsider its determination not to grant 500 to the Board of Trade this year. The Board of Trade and the Council may not have pulled together as well as they might haye done, but a City Council should be big enough to overlook things of this sort. Of this 500, which the Board asked, 250 was needed to defray the expense of an advertisement in the Dry Farming Record the only advertisement which Medicine Hat enjoyed at the Congress, It is not well to repudiate debts of this nature. The Council should have been tickled to death to learn that there was some organization which took enough interest in the city to see that Medicine Hat was not entirely cut of the running at Lethbridge. The News knows that the city has:many and multifarious. calls upon-its exchequer and that if every request for assistance was acceded to there would be little left in the strong box, yet this Board of Trade request is one which demanded better treatment. The News is also informed that the Indus- trial Bureau has not yet. been reimbursed for its outlay at the Chicago Clay Products Exhibition. This is another item which the ; Council might well take into its considera- tion. Se ee SASKATOON Phoenix. There is every reason-to believe that Mr. Haultain ts wilt adorn the bench to which he is soon to Toronto has had a privately own- ed street railway for a little over half long experience as a practicing barrister, who has a judicial mind with a marked faculty for getting at the root of things, is S jeminently free from rancor and prejudice and perhaps throughout the entire province there is no man so well fitted for the ap- be appointed. He is a man who has had pointment which is shortly to be announced Saskatchewan. Se Ye TT seems.almost incredible that Manitoba should be storm swept while this par- ticular portion of Sunny Alberta is enjoy- ing ideal weather conditions. In fact the temperature is more strongly reminiscent of early September in the East than of late October. When it comes to climate Medi- cine Hat has them all beaten. eS THE Dry Farming Congress was a big thing for-Lethbridge, but it was yet a bigger thing for the whole Canadian West, exhibits from which were viewed by people whose attention could not otherwise ns at- tracted: o THE Council takes the attitude that the News does not inform the public of the good work which has been done by the members this year: If this is a fact, the Council has itself to blame. The News teporters call upon the Mayor every day. Any information of which he unbosoms himself duly appears in the columns of the News. If the Council chooses to hid . its light under a bushel, the fault cannot in fairness be laid at the door-of this-paper. o .
