I do net think that we can compete successfully with the ‘‘great West” in feeding hogs, because feed is very much cheaper there than here. It takes about one fourth of the value of a insie! of coru or of oats to send it to a ship-

piny port, from say Ciiicago to Philadelphia, \ew York, or Boston. ‘The cost et sending the pork in barrels is small. We cannot compete with the ‘‘great West” in the pork bus'ness; they this business there ena ‘‘jgantic scale,’ with system and order, and can feed hogs cheaper than we can.”

To the Editor of the Examiner.

Sin,—The.citizens, through their represen- tatives at the Civic Board, are petitioning the Government to alter and amend the Act of Incorporation in such a way as to give the City Conncil increased powers of taxation,and to enable that bedy to perform its work ina more satisfactory manner. ‘The Bill placed before the House of Assembly by the City Council contains such alterations and amend- ments as they believe will be beneficial to the citizens. The petition requesting that this Bill become the Law or Charter of the Cor poration, received the unanimous consent of the Council, and had appended to it the sig- nature of each member thercof. As soon as this Bill appeared before the House, a few persons assembled in the Law Library and sent a deputation to the City members ask- ing that the Bill be stayed in order to receive certain amendments to be submitted by them. Some of these amendments are: that the City Council be reduced from ten to five members ; that the qualification for Councillor be real estate, valued at one thousand dollars ; that each electer qualified to vole shall have the privilege of voting for the entire Council. The reason thee cha gs are sought has not yet been made known by those assembledin-the Law Librery. ‘Lhe members of the Council do net receive pay for the ser- vices rendered to the Corperatin. It cannot then be upon ecenomica! grounds that}: redae- tien is asked for. ‘The tendeacy of the re- forins of this progressive age is to require no property qualification for Legislative er Muui- cipal positiens.
