The reeve and Mr. Palmer were a minority of the council, but they had to speak for the whole number. Municipal Councillors are not ex- pected to neglect their own private business. It is a pity, however, that they have to absent themselves on the day of nomination. They should be prepared on that day to answer any question which the rate- payers might wish to ask them rel- ative to the nflairs of the Village. ’fhesame holds good with reterence to school trustees; Day alter day The Globe tries to get The Empire to give an express- ion of opinion with reference to the platform or the Patrons of Industry and the F. P. A. The Empire's reply is, “No do not desire to in- trude at a moment of poignant grief and mental distress." This may be good policy on the part of the Con- servative organ, but it can’t be call- ed courageous. \Vhen newspapers are atraid to speak’ out plainly on current questions there must be something radically wrong some- where.
