@119 flibmfl.‘ Those who attended the nomination meetings in the village and Vaughan on-Monday must have been impressed with the fact that although taxes seem high as compared to what they were some years ago, there is no possible way of keeping them down, unless the members of the Councils refuse the requests of the ratepayers from time to time. Old members may be re- plaeed by new ones. but the taxes must be levied and collected, whoever may sit in Council. In too many cases ratepayers expect Councils to be generous when money is required, and do not think of complaining un- til they receive their tax bills. THE LIBERAL makes this statement with very much reluctance, and can say that this is the first and only time in tendering for a printing contract that we have had reason to surmise that we did not get “a square deal.” KITCHENâ€"In Richmond Hill, Dec. 24. ’ 19(‘19L't'0 Mr. and Mrs. Henry Kitchen a son.

The Liberal has no desire to meddle with municipal matters in Markham township, but in iustice to ourselves we must say that Mr. Padget had no ground for making any such state- mentas the above, as far as we are concerned. We were asked to tender for the printing and did so, and our tender was the lowest of the three put in. Had our tender been accepted we fully intended doing the work as we had done for Markham Council on former occasions, and never hinted to Mr. Padget or any other person that we would farm it out to another office.

DEC. 30, 1909 In his answet; Mr: Padget, who is on the printing committee, stated that had the contract been given to THE LIBERAL, whose tender was the low- est, the work would have to be done at The Economist office, as The Lib- eral had obtained the contract for Vaughan Township printing, and was not able to do both. After getting our figures from the Printing Committee, the lucky (?) tenderer was allowed to alter his ten. der for the Financial Statements from 90 cents to 60 cents a page. and the Auditors’ Reports from 60 cents to 35 cents a page, thus coming a little lower than our figures.
