C, FRIDAY, JULY 27, 1917 $1.00 PER YEAR v \"** MEETING OF TH CITY Chairman of flfater and Light Committee Says Water Is Being Wasted Mayor Acres and Aid. McArdle, McCallum, Schnitter and Webster were present at the regular meeting of the city, council on Monday evening. Poundmaster Woodhend addressed the council, stating that he did not consider the 50 cents per day allowed by the pound bylaw a sufficient amount on which to feed impounded animals. No action was taken by the council. . W. K. C. Manly asked, on behalf of the Grand Forks Canning association, for a grant to cover the asso ciationV taxes on its property. As the property-would be affected by this year's tax sale, the council did not take any action in the matter, It was apparent, however, that the members present did not favor granting the request, in view of the fact that the property of many worthy but needy citizens would have to be put up at tax''sale... this year. City -Engineer Reid reported that he had made temporary repairs to tbe reservoir, and the leakage * had been almost entirely overcome, but there was considerable seapage from the 12-inch pipe leading to the reservoir, and he suggested that a man be emplpyed for a day or two to prospect for the break. On motion of Aid. McCallum and McArdle, Mr. Reid was authorized to endeavor to find the break in the pipe and to repair it at as small an expense-as possible. John Simpson thought that there were notsufficient hotel accommo dations in the West end for the railway p< ople, aud he would like to see the Pacific reopened. The mayor stated that the matter had already been dealt with by the license commissioners. Mayor Acres stated that a convention of automobile clubs was shortly to be held at Princeton, and he thought it would be a graceful act to send the members an invitation to visit this city before they returned to the coast. The mayor stated that the third anniversary of the commencement of the war would occur on Saturday, August 4, aud he fuvored a proper! observance of the occasion by thc citizens. On motion of Aid. Web-j ster and McCallum, he was author-1 ized to secure a hall and to make I arrangements' for a meeting similar to that held last year. ! Tne chairman oi the finance com- \ mittee reported in favor of giving; the insurance on the contents of the city hall to F. R. S Barlee, as his figures i were lower than those ol other insurance men.

Bonthron, 10 cents. On motion, tbe work was awarded to the lowest tenderer. The chairman of the water and light committee reported that an enormous amount of - water had been used lately, and he' was convinced that a large portion of it was being wasted. He did riot like to resort to the extreme measure of employing a special policeman to enforce the' sprinkling regulations, but in his opinion' some step of that nature would soon have to be taken. After discussion, it was decided to postpone action for a short time. The chairman of the parks and cemetery committee.- urged the draining of McCallum's stough more effectively than it is at present. On motion of Aid. Schnitter and Mc- Calium, the chairman of the health and relief committee was instructed to ascertain the cost and, if he deemed it advisable, to have the work done. The board of works was authorized to close the Fourth street bridge while it is being replanked. The city clerk reported that small reductions in the assessment of B.

Mr. Pattullo, minister of landsin the Brewster government, and Mr. Young, controller of water, arrived in the city at 8 o'clock\"' on Wednesday evening from Phoenix in J. E. W. Thompson's car. Only a few hours' advance notice of their coming had been received here, but the ranchers were hastily notified and an informal meeting was arranged' for in the board of trade rooms tbat evening to discuss with thc. minister the, irrigation problem, which is at present a vital issue in ,this valley. Considering the short notice of the meeting, the attendance was gratifying.

C.'Henniger, president of the local Liberal association, who acted as chairman,' in introducing the minister to the audience, briefly outlined the objects of the meeting. Mr. Pattullo said he and Mr. Young had visited the valley to study the.question.of irrigation -and to obtain the views of the residents rather than to make speeches. It was the intention of the government, however, to do'everything it could to assist the agricultural industry, as it fully realized that the permanent prosperity of the prov- vince depended more on the tillage of the soil than on any other indus- i try. J. T Lawrence stated that an irrigation system, that would irrigate all the land of the valley was urgently needed. The proposition was too big for the farmers to finance it, and they appealed to government to investigate the subject and to suggest a workable scheme. In his opinion, a feasible method of irrigating the valley, would be to start a* ditch seventeen miles up the tional law. Mr. Pattullo replied that a system is in operation in Saskatchewan. Robert Mann endorsed. Mr. Lawrence's plan, as it would irrigate all the bench lands. Neil McCallum said irrigation overshadowed every other question in the valley. With water the valley, would be the garden spot of the province; without water, the full fruits of the farmer's labors were uncertain in dry seasons. H. C. Kerman said irrigation was badly needed, and he felt sure some good would result from the visit of the minister and Mr. Young. C. C. Heaven hoped for good results from Mr. Pattullo's and Mr. Young's visit, and trusted they would find ;time to visit all parts of the valley before they left the city. - John Donaldson spoke along similar liaes, and congratulated the. people of the district upon having a live representative at Victoria in J. E. W. Thompson. Mr. Pattullo followed these speakers, and spoke at considerable length. It was quite apparent from his speech that the minister was friendly toward an adequate irrigation system for the valley, as on several occasions he emphasized the fact that the' basis of the^perma- nency of any community was agriculture. Personally he viewed the scheme outlined by the speakers with favor, but he could promise nothing on the part of the government, as there was vet ho law.on the statute books authorizing- governmental aid irrigation projects. He thought it; was quite probable that such a law would be enacted at the next session of the legislature. He himself would support it. When the law was passed, the government \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDwould Jtake immediate action. He made it clear that any irrigation project the government might decide to aid would have to be paid for in the end by the ranchejs. The minister dwelt-at length on the financial status jof the province, which he compared to the condition of a man the day after he had been on a big spree. Capitalists and financiers everywhere were discouraging the floating of any more loans by the province, and in order to meet current expenses the govern- GUY ID Net Earnings for Last Fiscal Tear Approximately, $5,500,000 North Fork.

There was no other means of escape. To have kept on borrowing would have brought the province to bankruptcy. He prodicted tbat before the war ended the federal government would control the borrowing of money by the provinces and municipalities. In closing, the speaker reminded the audieuce that tbe majority of tbe press of the province were botile to the government, and a great many The lower part of the valley couid be irrigated from Smelter lake. If this scheme was adopted, he thought there might be a chance of supplying the city with water, from which source a substantial annual revenue might be derived. Mr. Young.replying to a question, said an indebtedness against land of $30 per acre for irrigation purposes was not an unreasonably amount. By the repayment of S3 per acre per year the principal and interest would be liquidated in about twenty years. Before the war broke out the government of the day had made plans to come into tbe valley and take stock with a view of assisting the farmers to install an irrigation system, but of course the war had upset tbe plans. John Simpson suggested damming the main river at Danville and bring tbe water across the line. It would be cheaper, he said, than to bring it from the North Fork.
