The Evening News, however, published all names received by Harry Conard, treasurer of the fund. The sudden drop in the market price of meat has had its effect- /> « Down Go Our Prices. We are the leaders in low prices for strictly high grade meat. Here are a’few leaders for you to think over. All other meats at proportionately low prices, . . ...” The contract to furnish Perth Am boy with new fire apparatus lias been awarded to that much talked about Rex Company. It' the apparatus do not prove satisfactory the city knows who to blame. There has been enough said against the Rex company to put the aldermen on their guard and it is to be supposed they knew what they were doing. Only time will tell con clusively whether a mistake was made or not and then all the lilatne or credit, whichever it may be, must be placed upon the aldermen who voted in favor of the award. Just as the friends of paving in Washington street were beginning to lose hope and were wondering how to do it all over again and be more suc cessful, comes the report that the re monstrance signed by citizens opposed to improvement and city advance ment, has not succeeded in killing the I ordinance On the orlier hand, the remonstrance was found to be heavily padded. The aldermen want more time to weed onr the illegal ones and the list may drop still more. The prospects for the pavement are bright. The street needs it before the winter storms and spring thaws again make the thoroughfare a disgrace fo the city. Look if over goon, gentlemen, we feel confident there are enough progressive citizens in Washington street to insure the paving of the) thoroughfare. Action of rite bridge approach, con tract awarded for new fire apparatus, notice of intention to build Smith street sewer and decision to drive two more wells at Runyon, is the work of the Board of Aldermen at a single meeting. This is so sudden and so agreeable too. Great progress, indeed. Keep it up, the cify can stand more of if. UINUfcK I M t ot A. Biibmffriuo ll«»4« t Go<*» Down Willi ISaoKtM **! 1. NEWPORT. R. T...
