PROPOSED NEW ROAD TO THE OEMETEKY.
PROPOSED NEW ROAD TO THE OEMETEKY. The Works Committee reported having had before them the plan of the proposed new cemetery road. The Assistant Engineer stated that he had had an interview with Mr. Conway as to the land required t'rom the churchwardens, and he had, suggested a. oeviation in the plan.2 which, if the levels prove satisfactory, would improve the route. A letter was read from Mr G. A. Hum- phreys stating that, in his opinion, Lord Mos- tvn will be prepared to agree to the new road scheme, subject to details ibeing arranged and the whole embodied in an agreement. The assistant engineer was instructed to take the necessary new levels, and,, subsequently, brills the matter before the Works Committee again. Mr. McMaster inquired whether the assist- ant engineer had any time to take levels. Ihree I months ago thev intended having everything readv so as to p-r-ovide work ior the unem- readv so as to p-r-ovide work ior the unem- I gloved bv the 1st oi October. 'But it appeared to him that they were as far off as they were three months ago. It would take six weeks to -y. tpare new sections and levels, and Christmas would be upon them before the work could be oommerucQd, The Assistant. Engineer replied that, the -lan. were almost ready, and he could discuss it with the committee "in about a week. The deviation suggested was cheaper and better, if acceptable to the Coun- il. Several members expressed the opinion that if it was referred to a. special committee it would expedite the matter. Mr. Hugh lEdwards asked whether it was not better u. proceed with the 15in. main. and keep back the road to the cemetery for a time. That would provide work for next winter. 'Replying to a question, the Assistant En- gineer stated that the landowners he would have to consult with were Lord Mostyn and t'ie Ecclesiastical Commissioners. Eventually it was decided that Mr. Ward should convene a meeting of the committee when he was ready.

TENANT FARMERS' TROUBLESI
TENANT FARMERS' TROUBLES I ASSOCIATION FOR CARNARVONSHIRE. ADDRESS BY MR ELLIS DAVIES, M.P. At a privately^eonvened meeting held at Car- narvon on Saturday, a number of the leading farmers in the district met with a view to the ■format-ion of an association to look after the interest of agricultural tenants. Mr John Griffith iOBiryn) was voted to the chair, and Messrs D. H. Davies and Ceorge Brymer were appointed co-secretarees, and! amongst those present were Councillor H. Owen (Clynnog), Messrs John Edward Jones (Pengwern), and Richard Jones (Llanwnda). Mr Ellis Davies, M.P., explained that tho meeting had been called at his suggestion in the hope that the 'basis would be laid for an association of tenant 'farmers,_who in co-opera- tion with the Board off Agriculture would be alble to assist the tenants on. all matters affect- ing agriculture. He pointed out that the land question in two of its aspects—that in relation to landlord and tenant and the question of rat- to landlord and tenant and the question of rat- ing-was often discussed, but that little atten- tion had been paid in the county to the question of improving the quality of the stock and I stamping out disease by scientific means, or of I faciilitating the carriage qr produce or animals to the various markets. He was satisfied, however, that they had at present not ^only a. sympathetic President of the Boaxd of Agri- culture, but that the officials as well were ani- mated by a cesire to help and foster agricul- ture in every possiible way (hear. hear). One I proof had 'been already given of the apprecia- tion of. the Board of the needs of Welsh farmers by the appointment of a Welsh-speak- ing inspector, drawn from their own class in life (hear, hear). fir one compared the .relation of the farmer in this country to the Board of tAo-ricultm-e and the relation of, say, the Go- vernment in the Rhenish Provinces towards farmers, one was struck with the fact that here the farmer seemed to be left entirely to himself, while in Germany, both regarded the improvement and supply df breeding stock and the extermination of disease, there was the most practicable operation between the authorities and the farmer. Sometimes it took the form of a restriction on the user of certain live stock rcor breeding purposes, and at others that the authorities assisted the farmer to im- prove his stock -by helping him to obtain a better breed from other countries. In the same way the opinions of experts on manures and feeding stuffs were obtained free of. charge, and experiments as to the relative productivity of oows were carried out at the expense of the Government. In Wales the di&cully of the tenant farmer was increased by theif act, ■tha. he was a small 'holder. In he • v 80 vev cent, of the farms were under 50 acres, and experiments could not, therefore, be car- ried out by the individual farmer; whilst on the other hand his loss when he purchased a cow giving insufficient quantity or a. poor aualitv of milk was all the more keenly felt. Mr Davies also mentioned the difficulty ex- perienced by farmers in dbtainmg credit, as the banks refused' to advance money on the security of farming stock, and he suggested that the association should oonsider whether some- thing in this direction could not be done by them, either through the formation of agricul- tural banks or otherwiee. In the &ame way he pointed out that possibly through the assistance of the Board of Trade and the Board of Agri- culture they might be alble to olbtain increased railway (facilities and a reduction in railway charges, a very important matter at all times, but still more so in vuew of the activities of the Beef Trust in .certain quarters. The association would be elf-material assistance in criticising and suggesting amendments of bills affecting agricultural interests.. After a considerable amount of discussion on various points i- was decided that the secre- t-anies should co^muriicato with the Board of Agriculture, pointing out that horse-breeding would be encouraged' if prizes similar to those given in the thoroughbred class were awarded for shire horses, and asking for the co-opera- tion of the Board in an attempt to improve the breed of sheep and cattle. •On the motion of Mr J. E. Jones, seconded by Mr Richard Jones, it was unanimously de- cided to thank Lord, Oarrington for the recent appointment of a Wel&h-sueaking inspectoi.
SCENE AT DOLGELlEY COUNCIL
SCENE AT DOLGELlEY COUNCIL MEMBER SUSPENDED. The Doigelley Urban Council on Friday even- ing were discussing the advisability of divert- j ing the Afon Fach through the Bowling Green, when IMr Lewis Rioharcfe, in whose name the motion stood, was frequently called to order by the IMtixman for interrupting the speakers. The climax was reached when Mr Richards took offence at being called to order by Mr Edward. Williams and called Mr Williams a thief. Mr Williams appealed to the Chairman to request Mr Richards to withdraw the remark. The Chairman: I ask you, Mr Richards, to withdraw the remark. I have called you re- peatedly to order for interrupting the meeting, and vour conduct- is such tha-t it will not be permitted while I occupy the chair. Mr (Rtiohards: I. will not withdraw. l' The 'Chairman: Then you must bear the con- sequences. IOn the motion of Mir AlKfred iTEughes, saconded by Mr Wm. Allen, the majority of the members voted ifor the suspension of Mr RichardB, and the Chairman asked him to with draw from the iOom. Mr Richards: Who is going to compel me to withdraw? I challenge you or any other member to turn me out. The Chairman: If you had any spark of deoeniey you would go. "The Council proceeded1 with the business, when Mr Richards essayed to speak. The Chairman: You cannot take any part in the discussion, and unless you .be quiet I shall send for the police. After further wrangling Mr Richards rose, and, asking the Chairman's permission to leave this "Chamber Qf Horrors," .left the room. The Council congratulated, the Chairman on being elected to the Mayorship of Ciroydon. Mr Richards .(who had re-entered-the room) I hope you will foe as honest there as Mayor as Jabez fBalfour was their representative in Parliament. 'Further interruptions by Mr Richards caused the Chairman to remark that he would see in future that Mr Richards would not be allowed to enter the Council's room. whether it was legal or not; he would take the responsibility. As the Council could not proceed with fur- ther business owing to (Mr Richards' inter- ruptions the meetfing was adjourned.

THE, I EXTENSION" OF. THE…
THE, I EXTENSION" OF. THE 15-INCH MAIN., The Water, Gas, and Electricity Committee i reporteu that Mr. VY ard (the assistant en- gineer) nad submitted a report with regard to Lile extension or the loin. main. Of Uie six routes suggested in a previous report, he said that there were now only two worth considera- tion, viz. -No. 1 (along the line of the present am. pipes], and No. 'a* (the Marl-lane route). The advantages of No. 1 route were: The two mains could be coupled more frequently, thus al- lowing ior the cutting-otf of fairly small sections of main for repairs, with very little (if any) interference with tile supply to Llandudno; much better facilities for supervision and the location of any defects in eitiier of the mains; no private owners to consider, easements to pay, or tenants to disturb in making repairs. The advantages of the second route were: The shorter distance, consequently involving less capital cost; very much less interference with main road traffic. He suggested that the fol- lowing works be carried! out during the present winter The completion of the lbin. pipes up to the district boundary, cost as per route de- cided on, £4,9t."6j three connections to make mains inter-changeable, and provision of reflux valve, etc., £ 260; the remainder of the works reported to be left over for a future applica- tion. There was an amount (£780) unexpended on the loan for section 3 of the 15in. water main for a new meter, meter-house and con- nections to Llanbedr reservoir, and as the pre- sent 8in. Kennedy meter was working at times to its utmost capacity. The greater demand of next year should be provided for this winter. The Assistant Engineer estimated the Marl route to cost £ 5,226, and that along the main road £ 6,180. The committee recommended, by a. majority vote, the adoption of the Marl route, it being considered i5rom the engineer's estimate of £&,Zi66, to be the most economical, and that the work be carried out by direct labour and not bv contract. The Clerk was asked to communicate with the Local Government Board, and apply for the Board's sanction to proceed at once with the work, pending the preparation of the neces- sary plans and the holding of a local inquiry for' a loan. and to state that the Council's object in putting the work m hand at once is to provide work tor the unemployed within the district durine the coming winter. Mr Bone said that he could not see so much advantage in Route No. 2 over Route No. 1. He wou d like to know whether it would be feasible to carry the pipe line parallel with the road, but on the other fcide of the hedge. If that could be done the easements would not be more, if as much. The Assistant Engineer replied in the affirmative. The excavation work would co»t as much as the easements. Mr David Davies observed that he had a'- wavs been in favour of the present route of pipes, but. he would not like to add more ex- pense to that route as suggested by Mr Bone. Mr Bone: I did not suggest it. I required information. Mr D. Davies I have no desire to throw any difficulties in therway. But I want to knew is the course clear. Have we come to an understanding with the landlords and the tenants? Are all the arrangements made .and the compensation decided upon? Mr T. W. Griffith An estimate of the com- pensation has been made. A Member It is in the estimate. The sum of £43 is provided. Mr McMaster: And it may be » great deal more. Mr T. W. Griffith No, it won't. Mr McMaster: You are paying equivalent to JMOO an acre for the land. Mr T. W. Griffith replied that the easements if anything, were somewhat less than what had been asked for in other directions. Mr T. W. Griffith, in proposing the confirma- tion of the recommendation, said that the mat- ter had been fully di.scus.*ed by the commit- tee, and with two exceptions, they were in favour of the 'Marl Lane Route. He might point out that, in all probability, there would be a saving of L900 as compared with the other route. The Council could not do better than adopt the recommendation. Mr W. 0. Williams seconded, and upon being puj to the meeting, was passed. On the motion of Mr T. W. Griffith, it was decided to apply to the Local Government Board for sanction to borrow the sum of £.5226. Mr McMaster I give notice that I am going to oppose this route at the inquiry in ail pos- sible way. Continuing, the speaker said that he would not oppose the application for a loan if an assurance was given that the work would not be proceeded further than Bodyegallen Road before an inquiry was held. Mr Griffith replied that the Council had adopted the route, and they (wanted employ- ment for men, and what they proposed would provide work for several months. The Chairman said that they could com- mence the work at Llanrhos instead of the Junction end, and proceed with it as far as E^dysg^ailen Road. Mr Bone said that no doubt Mr McMaster would oppose the route at the inquiry. He did not think that it would have any effect, but I it might relieve his mind. Mr McMaster: A cheap sneer. It was, eventually, decided to commence the ■v.'oi'k at Llanrhos, and the committee were given power to accept tenders for the pipes.

Mr W. Thomas: All that picture has emanated in Mr Bone's mind. Mr Hugh Edwards There was only one councillor at the last meeting of the executive of the Association. I was that man, and I am not ashamed of it.

THE FREE LIBRARY. Replying to a question the Chairman stated that Mr Hartley, the architect called in by Messrs Chamberlain and Johnson, to advise their client (Mr J. W. Williams) with regard to the question of light, had approved of the I -P modified plans prepared by Mr Humphreys. The plans had been initialled by both archi- tects and exchanged. A Member: Then, tenders for the work will be invited at once. The Chairman Yes. Mr Bone observed that it 'was understood that when they got the plans approved by Mr Williams' architect, that the Council should meet to consider whatever alternative plan that might be proposed. Some of them, pos- sibly would prefer the first plans, and would be willing to pay a mcderate sum as compen- sation to Mr Williams for enabling them to carry it through. Mr J. O. Thomas said that there was a great deal in what Mr Bone stated. Mr Williams might be content with a small amount as com- pensation. Mr McMaster said that the Council must be quite clear of their ground, and in posses- sion of the deeds before they spent any money on the building or the site. At present, they had no deeds nor money. It was decided to instruct Mr G. A. Hum- phreys to invite tenders from local builders, and eo as to facilitate the work each tenderer must prepare his own quantities.

And if the Association's com- munications did not state so in future he -might feel justified in ignoring their letters.
