Several prominent business men
have expressed themselves as being
opposed to making any contribution
toward this fund. They feel that if
the town is able to contribute half
it is able to contribute the entire
amount. Their contributions were
j made in the first instance because
Ashton was in town they believed the town unable to do
anything. Now that the town feels
able to give a part the business men
feel that they should not be called
upon for any further sums, especia
lly as they have contributed so much
already in the way of license. The
town has spent possibly $7,500. on
the waterworks system, and should
not “buck” at an additional $500.

A member of the House of
Oommous, a few weeks ago, said
that there had been ninety two
murders in the city of London
since January, 1908. This would
be on an average of not more
than nineteen murders a year in
a population of about five mill
ions. I*, is common for oar
American cities to boast of the
rapidity of their growth and the
splendor of their civilisation, but
it might be well for them to
compare their murder statistics
with those of London. Oar
dtiee, with less than half the
population of London, will have
to ooofesa to a larger number of
mnrden. The quick nnd inovit-
