CORRIS. Election of Guardians and Parish Councillors.—Great interest was taken in the elections as they were the first of their kind for many years and because the contests lay chiefly between Liberal and Conservative candidates. In the former there were five candidates, namely, Messrs David Jones, junior, Llwydiarth; Wm. Owen, Pandy; William Hughes, Tynyberth Council School; H. H. Disley, Brynhyfryd; and Lewis Jones, Tynyceunant. The three first were elected. For the Parish Council there were twenty candidates for fifteen seats. The Liberals nominated 15 and the Conser- vatives five. Unluckily one of the Lib- eral candidates (Mr. William Hughes, Aberllefenm), died the week before. The result of the polling on Saturday was at follows:—Messrs D. Jones, Llwydiarth, 173; H. P. Humphreys. London House, 168: D. Davies, Minffordd-street, 159; Michael Roberts, Aberllefenni, 156; H. J. Pughe, Victoria Buildings, 154; Robert Hughes, Dolffanog, 153; Peter D. Frazer, Ic MSnffordd-street, 148; W. O. Davies, Ralltgoed, 144; Edward Jones, New Shop, 143; Humphrey Williams, Tynvllech- wedd, 140; Morris Morris, Garneddwen, 140; Robert P. Owen, Tyglas, 133; H. R. Williams (Llwydrudd), 131; John L. Richards, Maesybwlch, 126. (All Lib- earls). And Mr Lewis Jones, Tynyceu- nant, 84, the only Tory candidate out of five who managed to get in. Children's Tea Party.—The children at- tending the Council School were given a tea party on W ednrodayafternoon of last week, and as they weather was ex- ceedingly fine, they einjoyed themselves immensely. The caterers were Mr and Mrs Wm Evans, Liverpool House, who supplied everything to the entire satis- faction of children and quests. After the children had enjoyed the tea and cake, several friends of whom in the village were entertained, namely, the Rev Rhys Davies and Mrs Davies, the Rev J. H. Williams and Mrs Williams and Mrs Doughton, of Aberystwyth; the Rev H. R.. Williams (Llwydrudd), and Mrs Wil- liams, the Rev and Miss Ellis, Aelybryn; Messrs M. Thomas, C.C.; D.

Roberts, B.A., Abertillery Intermediate Council School; Mr and Mrs H L Roberts, Council School; Misses Lottie Roberts, Hannah Jones, and May Roberts, Mr Iorwerth E. Roberts. Speeches were delivered by the Rev R. Davies, 'Messrs M. Thomas, D. Ifor Jones, and O. N. Roberts to the children on the value of education. A vote of thanks was proposed by the Rev H. R. Williams to Mr and Mrs Evans for the ample preparation made and to Mr Roberts, the master, for the kind in- vitation given, and seconded by Dr Rob- erts, and to Mr O. N. Roberts for treat- ing each child with an orange. I

Bowen, the manager, said he mi&sed the pair of rL <) boots the previous night, and f rom what he was told, he went after the accused, whom he caught in the archway of the Black Lion Hotel, with the boots in his possession. The accused had damaged the boots by cutting them. He then sent for the police. P.C. Oliver proved arrest. When charged with stealing the boots, the accused said "Certainly I did take them." Accused pleaded guilty and elected to be dealt with summarily. He appeared to be very ill and was cough- ing continually. He told the Bench he took the boots because he was bootless. Asked why he should draw his knife through the boots, he replied that he thought he would be more likely to get them as they would then be of no use to anybody else. He was committed to prison for twenty-one days.

BLAENAU FESTINIOG.
BLAENAU FESTINIOG. Labour Exchange.—At a special meet- ing of the Urban District Council held on March 29th, Mr Cadwaladr Roberts, vice-chairman, presiding, the Clerk (Mr R. O. Davies) reported that Mr O. H. Owen, the Welsh divisional officer had visited the town on Easter Monday and had a prolonged conference with him on the matter of a labour exchange. He expressed his sympathy with the applica- tion made for the establishment of an exchange in Blaenau Fes-tiniog, but feared that if an entirely separate ex- change were insisted on in Blaenau, the Board of Trade could only sanction one on a small scale. He suggested that the proposed exchanges at Carnarvon and in Blaenau could be carried on conjointly under one efficient and influential head who would divide his time equally be- tween Festiniog and Carnarvon district. After considerable discussion, the Coun- cil resolved ihat it is regarded as desirable in the best interests of the proposed exchange that it should be established on the linee proposed by Mr Owen, and that this ex- pression of the Council's opinion Jbe con- veyed to him." The Clerk stated that he had promised to convey the Council's views to Mr Owen on the morrow, as he intended reporting immediately. Mr Owen at the conference expressed the hope that the Council itself would always avail itself of the services of the ex- change and that it would also secure the patronage and support of the employers of labour. The Council passed a vote of thanks to the Clerk for the prompt ana practical manner in which he had con- ducted the matter. thanks to the Clerk for the prompt ana practical manner in which he had con- ducted the matter.

THE QUESTION OF HEALTH. There is an old saying A stitch in time saves nine," and if upon the first symp- toms of anything being wrong with our health we were to resort to some simple but proper means of oorrecting the mis- chief, nine-tenths of the suffering that in- vades our homes would be avoided. The body is a machine full of intricate and delicate mechanism and when one part is impeded it gradually throws the whole out of gear unless it is quickly put right. A cold, a chill, a touch of indigestion or liver oomplaint, a pain in the loins or the little indiscretions to which in the hurry and turmoil of life we are all prone (such as eating too quioklv. not taking sufficiwnt rest, worrying too much over our troubles, etc., etc.), all tend to bring about a. dead- lock in some part of the human mechanism or a weakening or slowing down of the whole. A good bracing tonic, one that will re-vitalise and will wind up all the machinery will at such times work greater wonders than a long course of nauseous medicines. A dose of Gwilvm Evans' Quinine Bitters taken when ,.ou feel the least bit out of sorts is just that "stitch in time." The question of health is a matter which is sure to concern us at one time or another, especially when Influenza is so prevalent as it is just now, so it is well to know what to take to ward off an attack of this most weakening diseases, this epidemic catarrh or oold of an aggra- vated kind, to combat it whilst under its baleful influence, and particularly after an attack, for then the system is so lowered as to be liable to the most dangerous of complaints. Gwilym Evans' Quinine Bit- ters is acknowledged bv all who have given it a fair trial to be the best specific remedy for dealing with Influenza m all its various stages, being a preparation skilfully prepared with Quinine and ac- companied with other blood purifying and enriching agents, suitable for the liver, digestion, and all those ailments requiring tonic strengthening and nerve increasing properties. It is- invaluable for these suffering with colds, pneumonia, or any serious illness, or prostration caused by sleeplessness, or worry of any kind, when the body has a general feeling of weak- ness and lassitude. Don't delay, but try it now. Send for a cop- of the pamphlet of testimonials, which carefully read and consider well, then buy a hot-tle (sold in two sizes. 2s. 9d. and 4s. 6d.) at your nearest Chemist or Stores, but when pur- chasing see that the name "Gwilym Evans" is on the label stamp, and bottle, for without which none are genuine Sole Proprietors: Quinine Bitters Manu- facturing Company, Limited, Uanelly, South Wales. p505
BARMOUTH.
BARMOUTH. INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL GOVERN- ORS, Monday, April 4th.—Present: Messrs Hugh Evans, chairman; William Wynne, vice-chairman; John Davies, Lewis .Tones, John Morgan, the Rev. Z. Mather, Messrs R. Llewelyn Owen, clerk; and E. D. Jones, M.A., head- master. Horticulture.—Mr. J. Davies pointed out that at t.he previous meeting it was decided to postpone the course of technical lectures in horticulture which had been arranged. He questioned whether the pro- cedure was regular.—Replying to the Rev Z. Mather., the Clerk said the reason for the posptonement of the lectures was that there were conccrts and election meetings arranged for the same time.—Mr. Wynne though ti the objection was only red- tapeism. If there were other circum- stances which would clash, he felt that it was justifiable to postpone the classes for a year. The Education Authority would lie reasonable enough to see that it was better to make the classes as effective as possible rather than have ineffective classes.—Mr. J. Davies said the question was whether the district should not forfeit its right to the ccurse if the classes were postponed for the sake of convenience. They must consider that the Edllcabom Authority allocated the grams among the districts with the view of having a fair distribution in the county.—Mr J. Morgan did not think other parts of the county would suffer any disadvantage as the grant would still be available. The difficulty was that the classes were postooned owing to ether engagements and that it was too late to have classy' this year.—The Rev Z. Mather said he did not know of any place in Wales where a course of lectures in horticulture would be so valuable and effective in beautifying the district. He was greatly disappointed that the lectures had been postponed and, if it was too late this year, the best course was to make early preparations for next year.—Mr. J. Davies said it was a question whether the Governors had anv authority to retain the grant of £ 10 in hand without consulting the Education Authoritq.-—The Clerk was directed to communicate with the Educa- tion Authority asking for instructions. FinaneiaL-The Clerk presented a state- ment showing there was a credit balance on the maintenance aooount of E188 and an overdraft on the buildinc fund o" J3105. A cheque amount/ng to £ 255 lis. lOd was received from the County Authority, being the usual instalment toward the Schorl. Generosity.—The Headmaster reported that Mr. Davison, Wernfawr. Harlech, had forwarded a cheque for £ 3 3s toward the provision of prizes and a library.—A vote of thanks was passed on the proposition of Mr J Davies, the chairman, saying that Mr. Davison was particularly helpful to the district in which he lived. Scale of Salaries.—Mr. Wynne proposed that in the case of new appointments candidates with two vears or more experi- ence in a school of similar grade as the County School should be entitled to be placed on the same scale of salaries accord- ingly.—Mr. J. Morgan seconded the pro- position which was unanimously agreed to. End of the Year.-Tlii, being the final meeting for his year of office, the Chairman expressed his thanks for the support ex- tended to him and the kindlv feelings which existed among the Governors. He was gratified to think of the school's suocees. Having been connected with the school from the beginning like other managers, he felt pleased that they had been able to succeed so well in spite of the many diffi- culties and disadvantages which had caused 180 much anxietv. The school had pros- pered more than any other school in the county in proportion. He'hoped that the success of the school would continue and that the scholars would appreciate what was done for tihem. Personally, he envied the opportunities which the children 0"' to-day had compared with the opportunities of his boyhood. The school had been for- tunate in having so excellent a staff of head teachers and masters from the beg li- ning.—As his predecessor in the chair, the Rev. Z. Mather proposed a vote of thanks to the Chairman for his services during the year and his support of the school on all occasions. The Governors could congratu- late themselves on the success of the school. —Mr. J. Davies seconded the proposition which was supported by all the other members and agreed to unanimously.—The reporters were also thanked on the proposi- tion of Mr. J. Morgan, seconded by tthe Chairman.
BARMOUTH FORESHORE QUESTION.
BARMOUTH FORESHORE QUESTION. EXCITED PUBLIC MEETING. The series of ratepayers' meetings pre- ceding the election of urban councillors was followed by another public meeting on Monday evening. The meeting, which was held in the Assembly Rooms, was convened on the initiative of Councillor John Morgan and was largely attended. It was evident that considerable interest continues to be taken in the foreshore question and the attendance was repre- santative of the different views which prevail in the town. Mr Morgan was accompanied on the platform by Mrs Morgan and Mr Ernest Lloyd. Mrs Mor- gan was listened to attentively and had a silent reception; but before the end of the meeting there was disturbance. The proceedings lasted two hours and half and practically ended in confusion. In opening the meeting, Mr Morgan referred to the fact that eight years ago he made a statement in a public meeting on the financial position of Bar- mouth. Although his statement was discussed and criticised for a long time afterward, it was not refuted and was the beginning of a new era. They must say that he and his wife were rather brave in standing before a large audi- ence on this occasion. They would try to tell the truth on the foreshore ques- tion and he hoped they would have a fair hearing. He respected every man, woman, and child in 13armouth. During the nine years he had lived amongst them he had endeavoured to serve them faith- fully as he intended doing again. (Hear, hear.) Mrs John Morgan then addressed the meeting and said she would give a great deal not to stand there, but God had cre- ated her in a way that she could not act the coward. She was going to tell them what she knew of the vital question con- cerning the foreshore. During the past three years she and her husband had borne in mind and body a cruel persecu- tion. In reading the world's history, they often found that God used even the weai hand of a woman to open the door, or show a light in darkness, but it was always done when men did not do their duties. When she came to live in Bar- mouth she never thought she would be called a stranger and foreigner. Her mother lived there for many years and bore her burden of the rates. She (the speaker) was only once in a ratepayers' meeting during the past nine years be- fore last week. Somebody asked her to go to Wednesday's meeting, and the attitude of the audience when listening to Mr D. E. Davies's misleading statements greatly impressed her. She felt so sorry for the hard-working people of the town that she was compelled by the spirit of right and defence to protest against the one- sided way that vital matter was put be- fore them. She could not believe it was the way to advance in Barmouth by trampling on other people's 'reputation and character. Mr Davies accused her of insulting the Council and the rate- payers. They all knew that she would not insiult one of them for anything. He said that she insulted the Council and the ratepayers when she said that they did not understand the question any bet- ter that night after all Mr Davies's speeches than they did before. Three of the candidates in Friday's meeting confirmed her statement. One of them, a councillor, said he did not understand the question. A new candidate said he was not going to touch the foreshore ouestion as he knew nothing about it. The third candidate said they had only heard one side of the question. In fact, she had not understood the things relat- ing to the question until lately. To all outside Mr Greener and Mr Davies, there was a mystery—something they could not fathom, something elusive about it. She would tell them how she came to under- stand the matter. They all agreed that the future of Barmouth depended on im- provements, especially the extension of the Parade. They were in a race with other watering nlàces and the Parade must be extended before Barmouth could run forward in that race. She would in- troduce as little personalities asi she could. She did not believe in that policy, but they must remember that she had to answer personalities. Had IYarmouth lost its. opportunity? She still hoped there was a door open to re-consider that important matter; but when a year-old member described it as a dish of dirty water she did not know what to say. God created water, pure and sparkling. Who produced the mud, perhaps. Mr James could say. (Laughter and cheers.) Many years ago a company came to Bar- mouth to instal an electric plant and sel- ected a site at Felin Ceilwart. That land was bought by a syndicate of eight mem- bers of the Local Board. When the town was canvassed and it was found that the electric fittings would cost E18 each house, the scheme fell through and the land remained in the hands of the syndicate. Mr D. E. Davies was the tenant of the farm. In 1902, the land was sold by auction, the vendor being Mr Owen, watchmaker. Mr Greener bought the farm with all the land belong- ing. Mr Davies was allowed to remain tenant and his rent was reduced from £ 16 to £ 13 on condition that he would leave on three months notice if Mr Greener re- quired the land. In 1907 Mr Davies had three months notice to leave, but did not want to leave. There was trouble in getting him to leave and strong measures were used. (Laughter.) Afterward, Mr Davies wrote letters to Mr Greener. In one letter, which could be produced, he told Mr Greener that he would make it very hot for him in Barmouth. That was the start of a mystery which outsid- ers could not understand. In the fol- lowing May a question was raised in the District Council whether the land at Felin Ceilwart on the other side of the railway up to high water mark belonged to Mr Greener or not. Perhaps, Mr Davies could say who raised the question. An inquiry was. held and the Government decided that the land belonged to Mi- Greener who had maps and deeds. When the question was raised he did not know whether it was right or wrong; but- the man who sold the land ought to have known. If the land belonged to the town, why did the syndicate sell it to Mr Greener? (Hear, hear.) As honest men, ought they not to have inquired, and would it not have been honourable to give that piece of land to the ratepayers if it was their possession ? She thought it cost the town something to confirm Mr Greener's purchase. Reference had been made to English land-grabbers. That was Mr Davies's word. In this cape, was it not the other way about? That was the beginning of the foreshore question. With regard to Minymor. she could say that Mr Greener had not been a good friend to Mr D. Davies, late of Beach-road, for many years. (Cries of "Never" and interruption.) What- ever ri eh ts Mr Daviesi had in that pro- perty, Mr Greener bought from him. In 1907 there was a great deal of talk about sea encroachment and a commission was appointed The sea had also eaten away land at Barmouth. Between Mr Jack- son's house and Minymor there was an awkward place. One day Mr Greener met four men on the sands. They told him that if there was a high tide, storm, or tidal wave, the water would rush up to the school. Mr Greener then in- formed her that he intended asking for the Council's permission to fill in the hole. Permission was granted and Mr Greener gave employment. He also offered to make the path right to the end of the Recreation Ground but that was refused, although it would be an acquisition to visitors. Why were those little things, which would help the town, blocked con- tinually? It appeared that many years ago there was a right of way in front of Minymor, but it had now been eaten away by the sea. The fact that the Council sent four members to ask Mr Greener for thirty-six feet of land to make a parade in front r » M":yiror proved they had no property there. Mr Greener told them he would give sovii-ty- two feet free, but that was not enough for the Council. He even offered better terms on condition that a sea wall was built in front of Minymor. The Gov- ernment offered J3700 toward the cost from Mr Jackson's house to Minymor and Mr Greener was willing to make a wall in front of his place, while he also offered £ 2,500 for the piece of land in front of the Recreation Ground. They were indebted to Mr Rees Jones for that splendid offer. (Hear hear.) She had read that the Clerk had informed mem- bers of the Council that there was no obstacle in selling that land. She had asked the ex-Chairman if there was any- thing to show that the piece of ground itts the town's and was informed that when it was intended to build the Inter- mediate School at the north end of the Recreation Ground Mr Greener objected because the site was too exposed. Mr Greener did not think the Council could sell the land because they had bought it for a recreation ground. In consequence of that, Mr Davies was sent to London to confer with Sir Stafford Howard, Mr W. T. Russell, and the late Mr Tom Ellis. Their decision was that the Council could sell the corner in front of the Recreation Ground. The ex-chair- man added that letters could be pro- duced to prove what he said. The Surveyor estimated the cost of building a sea wall at £3.200, of which P,700 was promised by the Government and Mr Greener had offered to buy the piece of land for 92,500. Even if the Council did not possess the land already, they could buy it for £30. Mr Greener was an old man on the verge of the grave. (Laugh- ter.) It was too important a matter to laugh about. He would never live to realise £2,500 from that land, however valuable it might be. Why did he make the offer? Sne believed Mr Greener was a true Christian gentleman and she would always stand up for anyone who was a true friend; but she was ready to be convinced otiherwise if they could prove any instance of meanness, or any attempt to take away what belonged to others, against Mr Greener. Was it not the Council's duty to accept the offer and build the wall? (Cries of "No.") They were bound to have a wall to protect against the sea's encroachment and Mi- George, clerk to the Council, had said they would never have such an offer again. The Rev Gwynoro Davies said the offer of having a Gea wall without costing a penny to the ratepayers was one in a thousand. Unfortunately, the matter was now closed; but she wanted them to know that she and her husband had no more connection with Mr Greener than any of them. She was his personal frfend. He was good to the poor. Sh& had a list of the widows, sick, and poor of Barmouth whom he oontinuallly helped. The offer he made respecting an isolation hospital was thrown in his fa.10. He offered to give an acre of Ismd for the purpose—an lueal place according to Dr. Dingle and Dr. Williams. When it was said that it would cost JD200 to make a road to the hospital, he offered to give J650 toward the cost. (Hoar, hear.) Mr D. R Davies bought land at Llanaber and the Committee were wiling to give £ 200 for a piece of land to which the inhabitants objected. She believed if they had acted in the proper spirit that they would have had an isolation hospital. Four days before Christmas four men from the town came to her with tears in their eyes. They had large families and no bread in the house. At their request she wrote to Mr Greener who replied giving per- mission to break all the loose stones in Graigfawr Quarry. (Cheeri-) A man came to her in the street and said he could not understand the feeling against Mr Greener who had been a good friend to him. At the end of the year his wife was ill. There had been two deaths in the family. The man did not know where to turn. He told Mr Greener who sent him a cheque for C5. (Cheers.) To give a dog a bad name was not right. To give a man a bad name was not right. A verse in the Bible said "Revenge is as cruel as the grave." She and her hus- j band would stand or fall by their work in Barmouth. They had done what they could for the town socially and other ways.; but they had been hounded as if they were thieves and murderers. They wanted men like her husband on the Council. They also, wanted men like Mr D. E. Davies. She respected Mr Davies and had no personal feeling against him or anyone el-e in Barmouth. Even a family could not live peaceably if they went against each other. It was only right that public men should also give and take for the general good. They had no right to introduce personal feeling. (Hear, hear.) A man was not worth the! position if he brought personalities into! public life. What the Council wanted wa.3 more unity. She would have given ;C2W for not being there that night, but she came with the intention of clearing! the air and in the hope that they would put their shoulders together to deal with questions of so much vital importance with one accord. Why should they pull against each other in a small town which depended entirely on visitors'? If they worked together, Barmouth would be the empress of watering places. (Cheers.) Mr John Morgan then addressed the meeting in Welsh and thanked all pre- sent for listening to his wife so atten- tively. He would follow her example in trying to avoid hurting anyone's feeling, During the past eight years he had given all his time and ability to serve the town. The foreshore had been discussed for three years by the Council in meeting after meeting and was a burning ques- tion. Inquiries were held and there had been long correspondence with the Crown representatives. In a letter dated February 14th, it was stated that no encroachment had taken place in front of Minymor. Mr Davies said in the ratepayers' meeting that the stanch- ions had been removed and would not be put back. The stanchions were still there. (Cries of "Shame.") It was also said that there would be no bathing machines. He did not intend dealing with the question of bathing rights which was now before the Court of Chancery. None knew what the result would be, but it would cost the town something whatever cost was already incurred. He had argued all along that it would have been better to settle the dispute amic- ably. There was another letter dated June 3rd, 1908, which confirmed the sale of the land by the syndicate at Ceilwart up to high water mark. He was told that Mr U a vies was one of the syndicate. If wrongly informed, he was willing to be corrected. As one interested in the future of Barmouth and desirous of man- aging the finances economically, he would like to know why Mr Davies, if lie was one of the syndicate, did not inform the Council of the particulars of sale and thus Gave the unnecessary expenditure of an inquiry ? (Hear, hear.) He bore no ill-feeling against Mr Davies, but thought it was only right that he should vindicate his character as a public man. If he (Mr Morgan) had been born and bred in Barmouth, he could not have done more for the town than he had done. As a member of the Council, his object was to ascertain the exact position with regard to the frontage of Minymor. According to a lease dated 1892, it was contended that the public had a right of way for thirty-six feet. That right of way had been eaten into by the sea, and he was doubtful whether there was an alterna- tive right. For that reason, he argued in favour of an amicable settlement to avoid litigation which was uncertain and expansive. Mr George had said—he took it at the time that the words were sarcastic—that the town ought to be proud of any man who could come to an agreement with Mr Greener for a yard of the land in front of Minymor. iiowever, a deputation was appointed and Mr. Greener offered seventy-two feet on con- dition that a sea wall was built. The question of right of way was discussed time after time. It was well known that the Crown in selling their property transferred thoir rights "if any.' Who could prove what these rights were ? The Council had been offered a right of way free in front of Minymor and he did not know whether they would havo another offer. There was no doubt that the Council had every right to sell the land which Mr Greener offered to buy. Every inch of the land was bought for sewerage purposes at Is. 9d. per yard. It was well for the town that they were forced to buy the land as it had now become a source of revenue. If the Council ac- cepted Mr Greener's offer to buy the laud, the money would be available for building a sea wall. Was it likely that the Yorkshire Penny Bank would ad- vance money to the town if the Recrea- tion Ground was not sufficient security ? According to the two schemes, the Crown offered to sell their rights to the Council for L30 on condition that there was no building in front of the Recrea- tion Ground. There was no restriction if land was sold to Mr Greener for 22,500 and a scheme was prepared to build twelve houses After the deputation re- turned from London, the Council decided to pay C30 to the Woods and Forests. The money was well spent if it settled the dispute which had hung over the town like a cloud for many years. The payment was passed, but the deed had not come to hand. As far as matters went, he did not see that the Council had gained anything. They were in the same position as before in regard to the Recreation Ground and Minymor, and the Woods and Forests had decided that the land in front of Minymor belonged to Mr Greener who bought it from Mr David Davies. Reference had been made to FAiglish land-grabbers, but neither Mr Greener nor himself had come there to take away what belonged to others. When a man had bought land from another, it was not honour- able to attack him. If there was a mis- take, the Local Board should have protested against the Crown selling the land to Mr David Davies. (Hear, hear.) He would have protested against it in the same way as he protested against Major Corder having the land between Mr Jackson's house and Minymor. Wb_en Mr Jackson built his brick-house, he (Mr Morgan) wanted to know whether the lard belonged to Major Corder, but received no support. A plan was sent to the Woods and Forests and the reply was received that they were in treaty with Major Corder's solicitors. The dis- pute was compromised. He contended that the town should have that piece of land which would be a source of revenue. Did those members, who now showed so much anxiety to protect the rights of the public, support him on that occa- sion? He left the public to judge. Re- ferring to the Barbed wire question, he would like to know where was the con- sistency of the member who asked in one meeting whether there was. any right to open a gap in the wall and at the same time asked if there was any right to place a gate there. Instead of gaining anything at Minymor, he believed the town had suffered in missing the oppor- tunity to build a sea wall free of charge on the rates. He had every confidence in the Surveyor's estimate of £ 3,200. and he believed he was quite honest and in- dependent. That cost would not come on the rates because the Crown offered £ 700 and Mr Greener offered £2,500 for the frontage oÍtne Recreation Ground, while material was available for a new road. Those offers were now lost and the cost of making a sea wall in future would fall on the town. None would deny that a sea wall would be one of the greatest improvements and assets in the town. Visitors came from different parts— India, China, Japan, America A Voice-And Festiniog. (Laughter.) This interruption was followed by dis- order and bell-ringing. Mr Dudley asked Mr Morgan to speak in English. Mr Morgan replied that his wife had done so; but Mr Dudley said they were dealing with different mat- ters. Mr Morgan said he was better ac- quainted with the Welsh language than English and asked to be excused. He added that reflections had been made on his character during the past three years. He was accused of acting against the interests of the town. That was not true. What caused the trouble? In 1904 he maintained that it wa not the Council's duty to make a drain to Mr Davies's premises in St. Ann's and he still believed it was a private drain. That was the beginning of the conflict between them. (A Voice: "Foreshore.") His character was in the balance and he was sure there was no desire to damage anyone's character. Shortly afterward he travelled in the train from Penrhyn- deudraeth to Barmouth with the late Mr Lewis Lewis, Mr John Evans, and Mr Haydn Jones. In a few weeks the Chairman of a public meeting asked him! if he had not carried tales to members of the County Council that the Surveyor's salary was fixed at £ 120 as inspector in order to receive half the amount from the county. Being a new member, he was not aware of the salary and the question caused him surprise. He sub- sequently produced a. letter to the j Council from Mr Haydn Jones to show that he did not speak about the Council in the train. That was an attempt to reflect on his character. Mr D. E. Davies-Name the Chairman i or there will be a wrong impression. Mr Morgan replied that Mr Hugh Evans, who was the chairman, told him afterward that he was compelled to ask the question. Perhaps, those who trav- elled in the train to attend the Guard- ians meeting at Dolgelley could say where the question emanated from. (Laughter.) He had known it for four years. It was also thrown in his face that he carried tales to Mr Greener and was his agent. He was no more agent to Mr Greener than to any other rate- payer. (Hear, hear.) It was for the public to say whether it was right that his character should be slandered in that way. He thanked them for the conduct of the meeting which had even increased his respect for his fellow-townsmen. His respect was none tie less because he was, defeated in the County Council election and he looked forward to another elec- tion. (Cheers.) Mr Ernest Lloyd next spoke and said that like his father (the late Dr Lloyd) he had a sincere wish to see Barmouth prosperous and successful. He felt that a great opportunity had been thrown away when Mr Greener's proposals were rejected. One of the deputation who waited on Mr Greener in Birmingham in- formed him that Mr Greener was eager to come to terms and do all he could for the town. If all the ratepayers had gone to the poll the result would have been different. Unfortunately, only half the ratepayers polled. It was said that the suggested improvement would benefit Mr Greener's property and not the town; but Mr Greener had made a road at Minymor at a cost of L150 to E200 which had proved a benefit to visitors and resi- dents. There would be even greater im- provement if the Parade was three times its present length. A visitor who stayed at Minymor during the winter was de- lighted with the climate and natural beauties, but said he had never seen a place so untidily kept. No advance was made because certain townsmen blocked the way. Councillor Edward Williams—Who are they? Name them. (Cheers.) Mr J. Morgan—Give Mr Lloyd fair play. (Cheers.) Mr Llovd-Let us be sensible. Mr Edward Williams—Yes. You had better begin on the platform. (Laugh- ter and cheers.) Mr Morgan asked that Mr Lloyd should be heard. Let them show they were brought up in a civilised country. Mr D. E. Davies appealed for order and, concluding his remarks, Mr Lloyd urged the necessity for an extension of the Promenade and other attraction-, if Barmouth was to become a successful summer and winter resort. After a pause, Mr D. F. Davies went on the platform and was cheered. He aid he had a fewfluffitions to ask as he had intimated earlier in the meeting. Mrs Morgan—This is our meeting and we have paid for the use of the room. Mr Davies can have a meeting of his own. (Laughter and cheers.) We are quite willing to answer questions- if it is in our power. We have nothing to hide. Mr L-ai-ic--I am only going to ask questions. Mrs Morgan made a. state- ment that I sent a letter to Mr Greener that I would make it very hot for him. Will you hand over the letter to the re- porters so that the public can see. Mrs -Alor,ai)-I told you that Mr. Greener had in his possession a letter from Mr Davies teHinsr him that he would make it very hot for him in Bar- mouth. I have nothing to do with the letter, but I know it is in existence. Mr Davies-Let us be perfectly fair. I only want fair play. They say that I have blackened Mr Morgan's character. What is this but blackening my char- acter? In fairness to me., f asik you to produce the letter. If it cannot be pro- duced, then you must say it is not true. Mrs Morgan—The letter has nothing to do with me. Mr Davies—But you made the state- ment. Mr Morgan—Remember that Mrs. Mor- gan is a woman. Mrs Morgan—I tell you again that Mr Greener has in his possession a letter from Mr Davies telling him he will make it very hot for him in Barmouth. Mr Davies—I take it that the letter oannot be produced and we will leave it there. Mrs Morgan also said that we were offered J3700 by the Crown and £ 2.500 by Mr Greener. Was it a clean offer to the Council ? Mr Morgan was going to reply when Mm Morgan said if Mr Davies had nothing else to ask, the meeting was at an end. (Uproar.) Mr Davies—I do not want any row. Mr Morgan then explained that Mr Greener made the offer through the depu- tation, of whom he was one, to give £ 2,500 for the frontage of the Recreation Ground and the W7oods and Forests offered JS700 if the scheme was carried out. Mr Davies said that was quite correct so far, but he appealed to every member of the Council to say whether the offer of the Woods and Forests was to allow L700 from the other amount. Mr D. E. James, as the year old mem- ber to whom Mrs Morgan* referred, rose to speak j, but Mr Parry watchmaker, said he should allow Mr Edward Wil- liams, an old member, to speak. An up- roar ensued during which Mr Williams went on the platform, standing in a row with Mr Morgan and Mr Davies. They appealed for order, but Mis Morgan, who had left the platform, said the meeting was at an end as far as she was concerned. Mr and Mrs Morgan with Mr Lloyd then left the meeting. Mr D. E. Davies afterward spoke and -aid that in referring to the "isolation hospital Mrs Morgan reflected on his character, as she said that Mr Greener offered an acre of land and £ 50 toward the cost of the road. The road was estimated to cost £ 400; not R200. He could prove that Mrs Morgan made a false statement as to the cost and was prepared to meet them anywhere. An- other statement was that the Council refused a footpath in front of the Recrea- tion Ground. All the Council asked was that a plan should be submitted and that permission should be asked. With regard to the Government inquiry, it was not ignored by the Council, but by Mr Greener and his c-,olicitors. Mr Lloyd came there to say that someone blocked the way. What did he know about it? As the; room was crowded to the utmost, Mr Davies was interrupted by a section who desired to leave. When order was restored, Mr Davies was informed that the light would be extinguished. Mr Davies replied that he would pav for the gas. Proceeding, he said that Mr Mor- gan accused him of not informing the Council with regard to the land at Ceil- wart. He was one of eight who bought the land m the town's interests. Mr. Morgan did not say that the land was bought on a lease from the Crown and in the title to Mr Greener there was an attachment made by Mr Thomas Roberts, Portmadoc, and Mr G. W. Pybus. In selling the land, Mr G. E. Owen acted on behalf of the eight. It was the last thing in the world he (Mr Davies) would do was to keep a.ny information back pertaining to the town. He defied any- one to say that he had neglected his duties toward the town, especially any- one who made the statement ana. then went away. (Laughter and cheers.) Mr Morgan said the deputation who went to Birlllinhalll were offered the right of way for nothing. That was news to him. Was there not a condition that they were to build a sea wall in six months? Why did Mr Morgan object? What he wanted was a right of way and parade for Minymor. (Hear, hear.) Re- ferring to the barbed wire Mr. Davies added that Mr Greener through Mr W ynne Williams requested the Council to remove the sand and nromised to re- move the barbed wire. To show there was no animosity, the Council agreed to remove the sand, but the wire was still there and would be there so long as there was defence on Mr Greener's part in the Council. (" Sihamei.") "Ilieire was no need to go so far as Ireland, but they could go to Aberdovey to see how obstruc- tions had been swept away. (Hear hear.) It was Mr Wynne Williams who suggested to Mr Morgan that he should retire from the Council, and they asked him in a friendly way to retire so that the foreshore could be discussed bv those who were not interested in Mr Greener or in the opposition. What happened was that Mr D. O. Hughes went away on his holidays one day and returned"Sud- denly next morning. The deputation who went to London with the Clerk aid their best for the town and obtained conces- sions. Mr Morgan had proposed that Mr Greener should have the bathing rights in front of Minymor. Why Mr Greener more than anyone else? Why was Mr Morgan not there to answer? (Cheers.) There were libel rumours in the air if they could get hold of him (Mr Davies), but he could take care of his p's and q's without their interference. He had nothing to withdraw from the state- ment he made in the Schoolroom, but rather to add to it. There was a great deal of wire pulling To get the frontage of the Recreation Ground without the Council's consent. Did they think Mr Greener had the welfare of the town so much at heart when he blocked up foot-1 paths? Mr Morgan had made a" state- ment and then went away; but he chal- lenged Mr Morgan to meet him on an- other occasion. He would ask the Clerk to call a public meeting to explain the foreshore question when he (Mr Davies) would put his case and Mr Morgan could put his. Mr Morgan said he respected Barmouth people. Did it show respect to get extra policemen and to nail up the door ? If he (Mr Davies-) had not gone to the owners of the room the audi- ence might have been in a dfeath trap. The meeting then ended, a section of the audience singing comio. 'gongs as it had done before the meeting commenced. [We have received a note. from Mrs Morgan which contains' nothing that is not in the report. In our opinion it was a mistake in tactics to leave the meeting and to not allow Mr D. E. Davies to make a, full state- ment. The meeting was to an extent with him.—Ed., "C.N."]
TALYBONT.
TALYBONT. Petty Sessions.—On Tuesday, before Richard Thomas, Esq., presiding, Dr. James, David Rees, Wm. Mason, and Edward Jones, Esqrs., the only business for transaction was an application for the transfer of the licence of the Halfway Inn, Tre'rddol, to Mrs Jane Rees, which was granted. Sheep Dipping.—A further meeting was held on Saturday evening at the Council School to consider the action taken by the Machynlleth district and Ponterwyd in the matter of sheep dip- ping. Mr Jones, Furnace, presided and there was a good attendance. It was unanimously decided to co-operate with Machynlleth in respect of their resolu- tions which are to the effect that there shall be one compulsory dipping of all sheep, but in cases where there are out- breaks of scab responsibility for its cure shall be placed entirely on the sheep- owner. With a view to the more con- venient and efficient dipping, that the notice of intention to dip should be given by the owner to the inspector and not by the inspector to the owner. That there should be free and unrestricted removal of sheep to and from all districts within the dipping area. In case of an out- break on any particular farm, that farm to be declared an infected area and the removal of sheep therefrom prohibited until the Board was satisfied that the flock has been cleaned. That in the ap- pointment of inspectors men experienced in agricultural pursuits be selected and that preference be given to Welsh- speaking candidates. The meeting also strongly protested against having swim- ming stations in the district, believing they would not help to eradicate, but would be the meam of spreading- the disease by bringing clean sheep into con- tact with sheep suffering from scab. It was decided to send a memorial to the County Council embodying the resolu- tions and to have the memorial signed' by all districts.
