Letter,', were read from the local Board of Trade and from the Rate payer!' Association, tbo former disap proving of the Tin foot right of way pro position, snd the Istter pointing out tbst tbeir delegation bad "emphatically "declined to commit themselves" iu the discussion of tbe pverbead bridge matter. Certain of the delegates were again present, augmented by Aid. Smith, president of the Board of Trade. Aid. Smith said be bad gone care fully into Ibe whole matter, particularly witk regard tp tke Tin fool right- of-way, and be considered sucb a pro position would prov.' detrimental to ferry puiaafen, since tbo granting of tbat right-of-way wpuld mean lhal an immense amount of freight trallic would come off tbe Uren.l Trunk wbarf and congest tbeir own trallic. De wu of-the opinion thst tbe subwsy, passed by the railway commissioners, would be quite sufficient to take rue of ill the passenger traffic. Msyor McNeiih, in replying, said that 'I" directorate wished to bave the co operation pf the citiiens in this matter. De thought tbore were several features wbicb required clearing up. For instance, he bad read in tbe newspapers lhat Mr. Philip hsd msde s statement to Ihe effect thst he be llevcd "then must be something behind it sll." Ilf (tke mayor) u sured those preient tbat the director sis were u desirous si say other re prssealalivc body ef serving the host interests of the citizens of North Vancouver. When s member of s body msde sucb s remark U tbe ono be bid quole.l, he comldsnd tbst the rest of tke body should lake immediate itepe to pat a pep '" thai sort of thing tke newlpspen get hold of it, witk tbe result tkat a lot ef nonsense li published. V Aid. Smith's cemment wu tkat "Ini people complained of not getting tbi news; Ikon tbey compleiucd of getting it." Mr. W. 1. Irwin at once proceeded tp explain Mr. Philip. He believed tbst the remark bsd only reference to tin negotiation* of tke Ursu.l Trnuk witk tki besrd, snd did not in sny raft? tp tke ferry directorate. Tke b*J|af wu tkat in making over lhat Wfool right-of-way tn tbe ti. T. P. W tbey wero not getting a sufficient "quid pro quo." Mr. I j. Walts lioi.ev endorsed this view. The mayor also made reference to Aid. Smith's remarks duriug a session of lbc council, one being "Ibat he kept in touch with public matters." Such insinuations almost mado Dis Worship wonder whether be were ac i nully mixed up witb something that be was not aware off Aid. Smith said emphatically Ihul it was bis opinion yet that tbe C.P.R. and tbe Q.T.P. would squeeze them oul of the landing. Do inquired us lo what was being done about the sub way, for which all preliminary arrange incuts bad been made. A dialogue Ibon ensued belween fbe msyor Slid Aid. Smith, duriug which it transpired tbat the Railway Commissioners had given permission for the construction of the subway to< the city ef Nortb Vancouver, so Ibst Ibe ferry .directum really bad nothing lo do wilh it. Aid. Smith: "Then it is up to tbe city couucil lo take Ihe mailer up. Dou't you think something ought to bsve been douo towsr.ls further infill" He reminded the mayor thul Dis Worahip wu a member of both bodies. "Why should it not be pushed abcadf" be penisted. "It's Ibe solution to the whole question." Mr. II. C. Wright pointed out that wbal tbey bad applied for was torsi porary relief. Th,at wu quite with in Iho jurisdiction of lbc ferry com- mision. Mr. Wright also emphuized Ihe point that they had not initially approached the direclon to expreu auy opinions or agree to anything Tbe msyor could notirid bih mind of that suggest ion that "there wu sometbing behind it all." He de scribed it u the "nasties! slur*lhal could bo imagined." Mr. Jease Williams msde sn explanatory speech during which it wu pointed out thst tbe ,'tO-foo! couceiien might terminate en six monthi' notice from either parties. It uemed lhal there, wu a luppeiition abroad tbst Ike proposal wu to give s permeuent grant in return for ( temporary con cesilon. Mr. Wrigkt ultimately suggested tkat a public meoling be beld io tbtt the thing might be thoroughly threshed out. It wu agreed tbst tbe suggestion wu a good ono. Arrangements for a public meeting are therefore befog nude and it li esrnestly hoped it will mark tke close of tbe period of cross purposes wbicb bu prevailed io eon section witb ferry matters of late.

There was no answer, hut, nothing .Isuiile.l, he begun Ihe second week ami so ruutiu- ued for seventeen weeks uml a day.

Oml was, iu Imi. answering .Ni'lmnnuli'.- player while He seemed lo he with linliline the answer. In this periu.l uf suspense, a plun uf proccluru was liuinn developed, ils general principles, ils minutest details, Wilh the growth ul the plan grew the coiivieliun Ihut he musl puf into execution, und the reso lulion tu do so. Ths Teacher's Lantern llraiiville Muudy, when asked,to lead Ilie students in prayers, took a hit of , lmii., and, turning lo the blucklioard lieliinil him, wrote in bul.l hiiii.l, "A.I ..ah.,ii. Depredation, Thanksgiving, it.ni. ma Supplication"; then as if giving military orders, said, "Let us pray;" ho followed closely in petition the formula on the board. Thus on the sensitive piste of memory, in Kve hundred young minds, Ibe purls lhal gn lu make a perfect prayer were im printed forever. All these pari wilt be fouml in Nehemiah 's prayer. ■ No- hi'iniuh is one of the in,.si illuslrinus crumples of disinterested patriotism nli,. I, hisloory, sacred or profuue, af fords.

Why does God delay Ilis answer lu prayer) Nn advantage from a. li delay can pussildy acrruu to Him. Oflcn the thing reipiesled is palpably in a, i in.I with His will and purpose. It may bu that, in tho delay and tbe consequent persistans* uml importunity required, that stale of mind and heart is developed which will make the best use of the blessing when ot lenylh il iu cunfcrreil. I'ruycr is uu active far- tor iu human affairs. Things runic fo pass through prayer that ollierwise never wuuld transpire. If Nehemiah had .inly wept, his tears would have availed nothing. He prayed, and hia name stands nest to that uf Zeruhh- abel as having supplemented and cun served his work, for the temple, without the wall, could nol have stood until Iho Hhiloh came, (llorious achievements are the outcome of deep feeling. Nehemiah's emotions fairly chiseled hjs face. If bis-bad boen a mere pass iug and seutinicntai regrot at tho forlorn condition of Jerusalem, he would nevet have beon thu honored instrument of I'miiilrim,' iu the rearing of the walls, lis is immortal, because his heroic, patriotic and devout soul was capable of the deepest feelings.

Tbis motion wai formally secon.le.l and carried. Mr. Mather* inquired ae to tbe period of tims which would elapse before the division could take placo. Could it lie dona before tbe election!. The chairman replied tbat tbii wu uot poiiible. Tbey would have to go before tbe provincial bouie as Victor ia, and other formalities would have lo ba attended to, io tbat ba did not think tbey would get Into definite shape until tbe beginning of April. On tbe whole, be believed tbera would not be much difficulty in tbe way as they were not going to aak for anything that tba rait of tbe municipality would be unwilling to give. The question wa* ratted ai to wbat percentage of property owner* tbey had lucceided in getting on to thair petition. Mr, Nelion'i reply wu 70 per cent, Some of the larger property owuen, while net completely lupportiug tbem, did not actually oppose tha Idea. Further, Mr. Nelion aaid the liabilities of the municipality were ,300.000 but be did not think tbey would be in any way liable for more tban a third of that ium. In answer to a queatioo raised by Mr. Aleiander, the chair nmi. observed tbat Ihey had now as much alienable property in tbe west ai the whole nmiilolpallty bad Ave year, ago, A.J this point Uf.
