FUTURE OF LLYSFAEN AND MAENAN. f (Continued from 2nd page.) not, Sarnymynaoh within the district of COil way Rural District Council?—Yes. Sarnymynach is in the same district fc £ iy«laen?-Yes. With Colwyn Bay in between ?—Yes. | j. '"tysl'aeu get tiheix water through the Ool- | Hay m&isasP — Yee, through Oolwyn pa.id far the mains?—Colwyn Bay. And ui-ey are, therefore, the Colwya Bay ¡I1S ho, not exactly (loud laughter). *5ie Inspector, who was obviously puzzled thus extraordinary position, asked Mr itrinjion to explain. j. Wituflss The position is like this, sir: — ;i,skod to apportion this main, and the ^jViKuUire on it, a.nd I apportioned 2000 of the main at Llysfaen to the Conway District Council, and that is, therefore. in Llysfaen, paid for by Llysfaen. J'tveu the whole of the water that goes' to 'ysfaen goes through Colwyn Bay?—-Yes. 'Mr Amphlett: Consequently it goes through ^nbigiisjiire property to get to LlysfaOll- 011 .Y (' Farrington remarked that that was a fitter which had caused much litigation be- "W(11 the authorities oonoerned. Mr Pollock: Which has practically been ^tved r—I am afraid not, six (loud laugh- ). liO IMPROVEMENT IN SCHOOL AD MINIS- j TRATION. Mr Evan R. Davits, as olerk to the Car- arvooshire Education Committee, then pro- to the box to give evidence. F. Low (to Mr Davies): Are we to hav<j pleasure of hearing you give evidence, ^sor (laughter). Mr Davies explained at considerable length the educational system of the parish was ^°rkcd, and added that the Carnarvonshire had now agreed to purchase a site for a new school at Penmaenrhos, to accom- odate 200 Llysfaen children. Further, under the proposals for amending the inter- Qkediate education scheme, now approved, a ?toi would be set apart for scholarships foa- ~'yefaen children attending the Abergele y°un(,y School, thus placing the parish in a poured position because the children would «>mj>etmg only against those of their own ,a.rish rather than against those of a number .r parishes, as was the case elsewhere. Mr Davies was cross-examined at soone J&agth by Sir F. Low. He argued that the Education of the parish could be as efficiently tnd economically carried on by the Carnar- vonshire Committee meeting at Carnarvon as fy the Denbighshire Committee who had to 1'0 to Chester, outside their own county to .^nduct their business (laughter). He had by the Headmaster of the Llysfaen that no oomplainfcs had been received *Jith regard to the lack of education facilities 'here. Concerning the cost of the proposed new ^chool, Mr Davies said it would oo«st between *4000 and £ 5000. Counsel: You charge a certain proportion of the cost on sites, and the buildings on tho Parishes served?—You must do. The only place which will be served by tins hOoI will be Llysfaen pariah, and that would 'he the only parish on whioh you cau charge that proportion ?—Certainly. Well I want the LLYSFAEN PEOPLE TO KNOW THAT. ■A-bout .£2000 of the expenditure on this oue Bchoot at Penmaenrhos will fall upon this parish ?—Yes. But if this parish were part of Deobigh- snire, tho Denbighshire Authority would be to oharge that proportion on all the other Denbighshire parishes served by the really can't say "Yes" or "No" to that (laughter). There are 166 Llysfaen children at the Old Colwyn School, and If we •*srld a school to accommodate 200 Ihat wi'i it. Preesed by Sir Frederick for a straight fepl v Mr Davies at length agreed that :f Ibhi-ldren from other pa-ridies did attend, the Proportion could, as the learned Counsel sug- gested, be divided between them instead of aa placed against the one parish as at pre- t. Questioned by Mr Amphlett, Witness said jhe site of the new school was on Penmaen Farm. He did not agree that it would be an Sudesirable site from the small childien < pomt of view, on account of its exposed posi- tion, and there was a cluster of houses around fcow. With regard to the parish meeting, Miuch he recently addressed at Llysfaen, he \I'IaB invited to go there to explain oertain Jitters, aad he went much against his -v il y&ughter). Mr J. T. Roberts, Mr Bodvei- and Dr. Priohard (chairanan of the bounty Council) were also there, but tbey ^ther spoke very little or not at ail. THE PARISHIONERS' POINT OF VIEW. Mr Arthur Foulkes, farmer, Vron Felen, Llysfaen, a member of the Parish Council, &nod an overseer of the pariah, aaid he did not iti-ant to "go over to Denbighshire." He bad d of no complaints regarding the roads, fj^d he thought Carnarvonshire had treated parish fairly well. By Sir F. Low: He lived in the rural part W the parish. » ° Mr Hugh Hughes, clerk to the Parish Coun- cl. produoed the minute book of the C'mn- and that of the pariah meetings recently in reference to this question. He also ^Sbmitted a petition, signed by "a large niun- ber of the ratepayers of the district," protest- hlg against the change. Mr Thomas Hughes, grocer, Llysfaen, spoke obtaining 43 signatures to the petition, ^hich had been sent him by the Clerk to the v *rish Council. There were 44 electors in parish. Some of the signatories could not ^rite, but ho oould prove that all tho signa- ge's were genuine. He had not ascertained J*s« rateable value of the properties oocupied the petitionei'8. By Mr Ajnphlctt: He asked the people whether they were in favour of the transfer to Denbighshire. All the petitioners were j*om the rural part of the pariah, though tr° wes.c ,6°nK! quarjrjmen amongst them. Mr William Lupton, one of t5ie partners Df Messrs Kneaw, Lupton, amd Co., quarry- aWnere, Llysfaen, said the quarries owned by the firm were rated at .£1500. He had come to the inquiry to listen to the evidence given, 6.nd since he had heard what had been al- J^y said he had decided in favour of "re- *SAminr>- as we are." He had only given his "ante as a witness during tie last half-hour, fch k°w • had been present jfoughout the inquiry, because he wanted bo what benefit they would get by the pro- change, and he had hoard of very little fit that would accrue from it. You don't anticipate any harm from the Change?—I can't say. ii Amphlett: If it had been shown that aero would be a penny difference in the rate £ °u would have gone the other way?—I don't D°w that I would. It you plant a piece of Carnarvonshire in ? middle of Denbighshire like this you Sink its affairs can be administered quite as |Carnarvonshire as by Denbighshire?— say that. It depends how it is ad- tolnistered. It would be lees expensive to work two quar- les situated close to one another than if they far apart?—Yes. ti s°u^ no^ saane in respect to ooun- —Yes, but they have not shown that I going by what I have heard at the in- ► don't say I am perfectly satisfied th W' 41X1 m<>re now than I was beforo ■? inquiry was held (laughter). fap r It. ^onefi» an insurance agent, of Llys- n. gave evidence as to tie canvassing of cauR^mainin8: n-ames on the Petition, and 8°me amuse,m«nt by his generous tri- U0en^ the Carnarvonshire Council's govern- lh By te. Inspector: There are 188 names on jv,. l^ition altogether. The majority of the loners were fortnightly rent-payers. THE CLOSING DAY.

THE STORY OF NABOTH'S VINEYARD. r Zl A Wateon who said lie had boen Lvnr.ff ini the parish for nu» months, gave a<ldi- tional evident> ooooonra« «he (nation, aaid in the oourse of his omss-examinatson caused some amu»cmont. Questioned in tihe first plaoe by Mr Pollock lie 81J..id ail the ¡x"OpLe Msrned ""itili the utmost wil- lingness except one pereon. Mr Pollock: And about tliat one man with whom you had difficulty ? The Witness: It waa a woman in that oaso Slaughter). Now Mr Watson, how did you manage to pe-t Ilhe best of that woman ?—Admitted, sir, it was difficult point (laughter). We overcame her by reading the last paragraph in the petition, that the county rates in Denbighshire have been higher than they have Leea in Carnarvomlure (laughter). Then it waa tlie question of the l«>moly budget?—Exactly• She is a widow, I beheve. and a little Aopfc^ r Relying to 8. F. Low. Mr Watson said he vrauad put iIOO wboie irnjttftr m a nutdwlL It wasttheoM story of N»both'» vineyard. Mr Pollock: You believe in tho admoiutioa in theJ Bible "Woe to them tSiat add field to field"? Yea,thtti)twhen it ia dome improperly. A SUBCOMMITTEE'S ADVICE- Mr II. Hug.hœ. the parash ciea-k of Lfysfacai, reoai&aci» produood tiie miituto-book of the parish mooting and abo of the Council. He stated that tibe Council Last June passed a resoiurtaon against tlie proposal and that tiho pajisissoners passed a akmia-r rosolutJoai in Decemtsjr, and on the 3rd instant. Cross-oocaiminod by Sir F. Low, Mr Hughes said a special sjub-committee had been appointed a.t one of the parish meetings to go into tihe wthote question and report. lIe produood the report wihidh was as follows:— "The members who attended oui Friday even- ing wore Mr David Evaaw (chairman). Messrs J. W. Rayn.es, Edward Roberts, the Rev. D. Lewia and tihe CLerk. The following is the fruit of their deli ben-at ions "(1) The transfer wouid guarantee extra. police. "(2) We have reason bo believe that the Tksn- bigilishite County OooncLl would gramt foot- patlw on the maiiai road at tilie lower end of the parish which the Carnarvonshire County Council hiis refused. "(3) That the children at the lower end of the parish would go to tihe Colwyn txihooU and &o maketihe building of tihe new school uameoea- sary at Ponniaen at jTesent. "(4) We have reason to betlievo h113.t the assess- able value of Denbig'iisiliire is bower than that of OaiTO2urvonshire and nearer to the assessable value of the Conway Union. "(5) The transfer wowld be an advantage to tlie oi tiki re n as tthey can tiheai (Kwrqiete for fclholardhips at Colwyn or Abergele instead of going to Llandudno- (6) Denbighshire' soheinc of seoondary education jjirovides for ohiWren in rural districts in allocating the scholarships. '(7) The transfer would greatlly facDitate the work of the attendance ofKcer^ as at present there is a good deal of overlapping." In answer to Sir Frederick, Mr Hughes said the report had not beein adopted when subse- quently submitted to the foiSikwm^ paririh meet- ing. Another meeting of parksilaonors had con- sidered tilie quesifcian and lie agreed with the newspaper report, that "it was difiiouit to make outwhotibc-r there was a preponderanoo of opinion for or agiaanst the proposed change." No rojodutkm had bean put at that meeting, and those pneoaiut wore ao(lrvis to attend the inquiry. Sir F. Low Witih regard to the oompoaition of the sub-comirnifctee—Mr David Evans was the chairman and I see there were atao present M<pv«ns J. W. Ra-vnes. Edward Roberts, and the ltev. D. Lewis. Wiho is Mir Raynes ? Witness He is the owner of the other large quarries. And he ako aseanied to the report ?—It was adopted uiiajiwnously by thoc committee. And the Rev. D. Lewis 13 the rector of tihe parish—Yes. By Mr Pollock: The Pariah Council had de- cided agaÙwt the transfer by eleven votes to two. Mr J. T. Roberts, clerk to the Carnarvonshire Council (I, said it was at the invitation of Mr Waiftson and Mr Robert Evans that lie. Mr E. R. Daview., and others attended the parish mooting referred tQ. Mr Morris Hugh Wiiijanis, treasurer for Cfer- navousihi.re, was afeo recalled to give certain figures anejit raitea and assessments. IN FAVOUR OF URBAN POWERS. Mr Robert Evans, Mchrciroft, formerly a mem- bo of the Carnarvonshire Council, and also of of IAysiaeai Parish Council, said he lived in the OM Colwyn part of tihe parish. and his vÍfflv was tltat "we better irtop in Carnarvon- shire." He hved near die main roacf to whioh reference had been made by Mr Lewis on the previous day, but he had no complaint to make with rega-rd to its administration by Carnar- vonshire. By Sic F. Inw: He thought a policeman should be res-idamt in the parish. If tihe Denbighshire people take over the dis- trict they say they will plaoe a policeman tliere ?—Yes. but I don't betlieve them (laughter). Do I understand that an official aays a. thing wild be done you don't believe him?—I foHow you- Then don't try to be furany if you fcft- low a question that is put to you. Do you now say you don't believe it woukl 00 done?—No, I don't, but how they are treating oflliear Councils about us we know wihat we might ex- pect from them. Wilmeaj added that Denbigh- tiwre did not deail properly witih t.he wants of Colwyn Bay. paitiouhurly m respect to main roadb. By Mr Amphlett: He was not satisfied with the management of eeoondary schools and other matters' in the parish, though he could not see what that had to do witih the question at issue. You want to have urban powers tor Llysfaen ? —I db. This closed the case with regard bo LIys- faen. MAENAN AND ABBEY. Sir F. Low then opened his case with regard to Maeoian and Abbey. Mr R. B. Adams, county surveyor for the western division, and Mr Morria Roberts, sur- voyor to the Uonrwst Rwrml District Coundl spoke as to the inconvenience of there being pieces of the Llanrwst main road belonging to a county, while Superintendent 0 Beres- ford staled that the Denbighshire constables had to croBs Maenan in their patrols, but had no authority there. For the last four years tlie Trafriw officer had not visited the Denbighshire officers at the conference point in the pariah as he formerly did. Mr T. Rogers Jones, auctionear, Llanrwet, a member of the Denbighshire County Council, stated that be frequently heard oomplainta from farmers in M,'tenan and Abbey that, owing to having bo go bo Trefriw for certificates sane tkuiing the removal of sheep to his auction mart at Taiyoafn, they missed sales and had. to postpone the baking of sheep to the mart for a. fortnight. Colonel &andbac.h, of Hafod-un-os, a landowner in the parish of Maenan, and Mr Louis W. Jolf Pot it., vice-chair man of Denbigh Quarter Sessions, whose rarxtenoe is situated in Maenstn, ave evidence as to the laok of police super- vision in that parish, and on various grouncLs —I3a.rticula.rly in reference to tlie difficulties experienced under the new Territorial Forces regulations concerning t'he mobilising of tlie forces in that area—supported the transfer.
