THE MUNICIPAL ELECTION.
"Let us have a change, and give the working man a chance." This is how a correspondent unburdens himself on the question of the municipal elections. Evidently lie is not satisfied with the way in which the Council lias treated the., working man in the past. He does not, however, attempt to show where the default has been. Have the men in the service of the Council not been paid a fair wage? - This is the only inference to be drawn from our correspondent's remark. The ratepayers should bear in mind, therefore, that unless they bestir themselves there is every prospect of a sharp increase in the rates. This is only one serious result which, may follow their apathy. The lousiness of'this municipality is'altogether j too important to be entrusted to nov--1 ices, and to men who do not possess I business training. , ,
