‘* Havine heard numerous complaints for some days past from employees of the city that they had not yet received their last month’s salaries, a ‘‘ Patriot” reporter called yesterday on Mayor Dawson to ascertain the facts of the matter. From him he learned that they have not been paid be- cause there is not at present any money in

the City Treasury which can be used for;

that purpose. The law under which the assessment islevied provides that none of the taxes shall be used for any other pur- pose until what is required by the City School Board has been collected and hand- ed over to them. This amount has not yet been collected. The School Board require $10,000, and they have as yet only received $1,000. To-day $1,200 more will be hand-

Bank Notes.

We see by the advertisements that some adventurous merchants have notified the public of their willingness to accept Mer- chants’ Bank notes at their face. The risk that these speculators run cannot be very

‘to pay no inconsiderable sum, in the cost of

pay not at alla small percentage for the privilege of getting it! Are the merchants advertising so hard up for cash that they must have those bad notes even if they have to pay forthem? This cannot be, for our wealthiest business men are the men Is not the simple answer to this the fact that these notes are as good as those of either of the other banks, but that these advertisers are among the few who have taken the trouble to find this ont.

since, its anticipation that ‘‘ the Dominion Company will frame such a reasonable tariff as will make them exceedingly popular in the Maritime Provinces, and give them a very large share of the business.” This anticipation, we have no doubt, will be re- alized, At the time we write the actual tariff has not been fixed, but we understand that there is reason to expect the extension of the local rate of 25 cents to messages for the Maritime Provinces. The lines, we believe, have been laid with the utmost care ; and their workmanship is such as is likely to last for a long period.
