Reeveship VOTE TO ELECT Reeve for 1934 A keenly contested municipal elec- tion is under way in Markham Town- ship with a record number of candi- dates seeking election. Four candi- dates are seeking the reeveship and never before in the history of the township has there been a. four corn- ered fight. Reeve George B. Padget is seeking re-election and he is op- posed by Robert A. Smith, deputy- reeve of 1933, ex-reeve W. C. Gohn, and Harry Clarry who on a number of occasions has been a candidate. Coun cillor W. L. Clark is stepping up to contest the deputy-reeveship and he is opposed by R. L. Stiver a former deputy-reeve and by C. H. Burford a newc0mer in municipal affairs. Sevâ€" no property was sold for taxes in Markham township this year. Speak- ing of relief the reeve said he had done everything in his power to keep the expense down and at the same tim esee that those in need were pro- vided for. Every case of a party se- curing relief was first given a care- ful investigation. In appealing for re-election Reeve Padget said he had made an- honest effort to serve the best interests of the ratepayers of Markham township and if re-elected would continue to work for the good of the township. Deputy-reeve R. A. Smith who is contesting the reeveship gave an ac- count of his stewardship both county and township affairs in and stated that if there was an election . en are seeking the three seats on council. Charles Hoover and Fred Coakwell members of the 1933 counâ€" cil are seeking re-election and the new candidates are James Rennie a former member of council, W. F.

Gohn, another of the candidates for reeve, is also an ex-Warden of the County and had served for many years in the township council and is recognized as a well versed municipal man. Deputy- reeve R. A. Smith has served as deputy-reeve for seVeral years and has a number of years council ex- perience. H. S. Clarry is a former member of council. W. L. Clark who is this year stepping up to contest the deputy-reeveship has served four years as a member of the council.

Charles Hoover is completing his first year as a mem- .ber of the municipal council, Fred. Coakwell has been a councillor for many years, James Rennie was a mem ber of council in 1932, and W. F.

The nomination meeting held at Unionville Friday afternoon was fairly well attended despite the bad condition of the roads, although there was not as large a crowd as in prev- ious years. Reeve Padget gave a clear and de- tailed account of the year’s business both in the township and in the county Dealing with county affairs he point- ed out that the equalized assessment of the township had been reduced, dis! cussed the vexed question of hospitalâ€" ization which in the past has been a . B . very expensxve item for the county but which was handled this year with a considerable saving to the taxpay- ers. He reviewed the road work done in the township and pointed out that Three Run for Deputy-Reeve‘and Seven for Council THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO he would be stepping up into the race for rceve. He paid tribute to the service rendered to the municipality by the members of the Relief Commit- tee who were of great assistance to the members of council in carrying on this work. Councillor W. L. Clark thanked the electors for their wonderful support accorded him during his four years as a member of the township council. He dealt in detail with the proposed work plan in which the township will co-operate in an effort to provide work for the unemployed and thus eliminate much of the direct relief. Charles Hoover, who is completing his first year in council and is stand- ing for re-election, stated that he had endeavoured to serve the ratepayers of the township to the best of his ability and if it was their wish he was willing to continue to serve them in 1934. Councillor Fred. A. Coakwell, anâ€" other member of the 1933 council seeking re-election, said that the past year had been a strenuous one for a municipal council as it had been a strenuous one for individuals. He reviewed the work on township roads and appealed for the continued sup- port of the electors. ' H. S. Clarry, a candidate for reeve, criticized the $7.00 per day paid to members of County Council, and questioned the need of continuing a Council Council as part of our gov- ernment system. W. C. Gohn, a former reeve who is again contesting the reeveship, took issue with the work of the assessors and pointed out Where he felt their work was not properly done. He con- gratulated the council on the im- provements to the Municipal Hall. Mr. Gohn discussed at considerable length the township finances and ap- pealed to the electors for their sup- port to elect him as reeve in the com- ing year. C. H. Burford, a candidate for deputy-reeve, advocated a minimum rate of wages of .35 cents per hour on all township and relief work. He felt there should be men on the coun- cil who would be able to get higher grants from the government. A. E. Dewes, a candidate for coun- cil, dealt with relief matters and felt that the township council could do better in providing work for the un- employed. Mr. Davey, who was nominated for council but withdrew, advocated the establishment of a canning factory in Markham township to provide a market for produce of market“ gar- deners. He stated that no person could live on 8 cents per day. J. S. Leeds, candidate for council, severely criticized the handling of relief in the township and the 20 cents per hour paid on relief work. It is a disgrace, he said. James Rennie a former member of council who is standing for re-election appealed to the electors‘ for support and expressed the hope that with the improvement in general economic conditions which must soon come, times for everybody would be better. W. F. Kincaid, a candidate for council, stated that he didn’t think it just right for, men to work on the rbads for $1.80 per day when mem- bers of council drew $4.00 per day. Charles Hooper said he was a can- d‘idate for council and felt that it was the duty of young men to come for- ward to accept plaées of responsi- bility in the carrying on of the public affairs of the township.
