Mr. Baildon said it had been his an ention also to draw the board's attention to the slow rate of progress. The tramway manager, Mr._ A. &. *ora, said that everything was being done to Mr. XttAß-, ■*« that sleepers were due on October 10, and the board's work would be put in hand almost immediately, as far as layin" out the materials was concerned. "You will have to light a fire under these people in the trenches," commented Mr. Baildon.
