TO THE EDITOR Six>. —Your coiriwpondeut Mr John A. Brown is evidently imbued with all the qualifications necessary for side-tracking, Mv reply to the isswia that he charged ih’e Train-way Committee and City Council with wore straight answers,- supported by oflicial tacts and the. opinion or our ratepayers- at the lime, thrown in for his benefit,,' He implies innuendo, cloaking, _ and introduction *ol side issues as pud of our propaganda. I am perfectly satisfied to leave our case in the hands of those interested, believing that our citizens and ratepayers have every confidence in their and that Mr Brown’s inferoneo of side issues is not part of the Tramways Committee or Citv Council’s policy. Wo have ample demonstrations from oilier sources without public bodies or their repve-entatives adopting such a com*,so; and nad Mr Brown thought of offe ring his services to the electors at our recent municipal elections he xnuv have rereived- the honor of being elected. I fee) serve it would have proved verv beneficial towards his present inspiration for attending Parliament, as ft training in municipal government tends to broaden the mind, which necessitates full investigation of all parte of a, proposal, including car bodies with their accessories, cur trucks and equipment, before deter-' mining what the profit, may be.—l am, etc., Jambs S.
