I never heard of a public contract being £

privately extended before.” He replied, “Yes, we thought we was getting a very fair rent for them, and the public seem very well pleased with the present coatrac- tor, and we did not think he was making very much outof them. In fact, he says so himself. Mind you, it takes a great many weighings to make $100 per year. He lease extended for three years more and so we granted it and let him have them again.” I replied, ‘*Very well; bid him good day and lefthim. I] next went to Councillor Ladner, and he made a similar statement to that of Coun- cillor Horne, with this addition, after I told him what | was prepared to do under my present circumstances, that I had better see Counci}lor Davy, who was chairman of some committee (1 quite forget what) but he would tell me ail about it.” I accord- ingly saw Mr. Davy, when, aiter telling) him my business, he replied, ‘‘Yes, we have extended the contract for three years more. The present contractor says he is making scareely apything out of them, por has he been doing for the last two or three years, and so we thought we would Jet him have them a little longer.’ I then bid him good day and left him. I next wended my way to Councillor Koughen, when, after conmmunicating the subject of my business to him, he replied, *‘Yes, Mr. Waller, I believe they have extended the present con- tract, but really 1 myself, nor Kelly, nor Crabbe bave but little to say in city mat ters, as the council is at present consti- tuted; but | would advise you te see the Reeorder «and ascertain if the extension of the contract is signed asit should be by him to make i: legal,as if not there js atill time to cancel it and advertise it in the usual form as shouid have been the case. I accordingly saw the Recorder who said ‘‘that he had been away, perhaps seme other Attorney bad done so,” I next saw Councillor Keily whose state. ment was pretty much as that of Councillor Koughan, but he advised me to see the Mayor. I accordingly did so, when after introducing the subject to him he replied, ‘Yes the man ask d to have it extend- ed, and the people seem very well satisfied with him, and so we extended it for three years more.” Ireplied, yes, but is that not rather a strange way ot conduct ing public business ? He replied, ‘ch no, *» have extended Meesrs. Carveli’s and M srs. Blake's leases before this, and the people are well satisfied.” 1 then left him, and the next day saw Councillor Crabbe, when after making the subj-ct of my visit known to him, he replied, ** Yes the present tender i believe is extended for a furcher pericd of three years, bat really myself. Koughan, ner Kelly, had nothing to do in the matter,”

Now, Mr. Editor, I wish to tell you and your fellow ratepayers that 1 have had to do with public contracts and contractors long before I came to P, E, Island, but this is the first instance that as ever came under my notice of a public contract being privately extended. In _ fact contracts let by the various town corporations of England hardly ever exced three months, and those of the various Boards of
