‘ABOLITION OF MARKET TOLLS.
City Council Asked to Take Action Along This Line.
A petition from the merchants doing business on and about Queen Sqaare ask~ ing that the market toils be abolished is to be presented at the regular meeting of the City Council to be held on Monday evening next, and lastnight an informal meeting of the Board was beld to hear wiiat the promoters of the petition kad to say
regarding the matter, Jouncillors Crabbe, Hooper, Lyons, Wheatley snc McCarren were present. Counce Il»
Crabbe explained the otject of the mee «- ing, avd :nvited discussivn.
Mr Fred Perkins was the principal spokeeman. He explained that the mer chants were desirous of promoting trade aud¢uing everything in ‘their power to bring people from the country into the city. Among the matters that
| up’for consideration at their meetings was | the abolition of the market tolls, and it bad | been decided to ask the Counce] to take The tol!-collector’s term was about to expire and tLey thought

iG keep the people from coming in. He thought the small amount the city cor- yoration receives from these tolle, some
$500 or $600, might be made np some Otber way. The merchants who ask for the change are all large tax-payers, and
lde thought the experiment might be tried fora time, ant if itis not found to work tatisfacturily they cau return to the old order of things.
The other merchant present concurred in the statements made by Mr }’erkins.
Mr. Belis;one of the butchers having a stall in the lower part of the market buaild- ing, did net fallin line with the argu- ments advenced by Mr. Perkins. He did not believe that the paltry eum collected

Mr. Perkins, in reply, said it wasa fact that some people would not come inte town because of the tolls ; they preferred to go to Summerside where tolls were aot im- posed. He instanced one case to bear out hie assertion. He believed, further, that there are very few towns where tolls are cullected as they are in Charlottetown.
Counciller Crabbe saidthat a different system was adopted in other towns ; that the country people generally transacted
their business with middle~men and these had to pay. He believed that Mr. Holman did the bulk of
this class of trade in Summerside, At the present time the city receives $672 a year from Mr. McLaren, who ccllects theee tolls, and the corporation has to pav for keeping the equare clean. ‘ Under all the circum-~ stances he could not see hie way clear to do away with the collection of tolls from people séiling fish, meat, etc., on the equare, but he was favorable to abol- iehiog the tolls imposed upon those who

He thought it was the women upstairs who complained about the tolla, and did not
think the men selling outside objected. He was favorable to removing the upstairs
tolls for a time to see how it would work.
Councillor Hooper said he bad not fally considered the matter, and therefore de- clined tof state what action he would take. But if he went for taking the tolls off ap- stairs he would go tor taking them off outside as well.
Counciilor McCarron declined to ex- press an opinion until ne hed neard botn sides of the question fully presem-ed
This closed the proceedings, and the deputation withdrew after Mr. Perkins had thanked the Council for the attention given them.
