TIN AND TARIFF. I Sir Alfred Monti's Recent Visit to I Canada. Althouh the Canadian Parliament i? now fitting, it does not ?eem (?.aiy? a Cardie contemporary) that any 1 ul.thr anangemcnt8 Have |>een made for tho visit of the deputation from this country to confer with the Canadian authorities on the tin and gulvamaed plate tariff question. At the offices of the British Steel Smetyeria? and Iron and Tinplato Workers' Society, it was stated that thoy had heard nothing further oon- eerning the proposed deputation. Pro- bably the matter was being held iu sub- jwnsc, until the British Parliament met, when conferences for discus,sing the sub- ject could be more conveniently made. On the other hand, it was possible that the visit of Sir Alfred Mond, M.P., to Canada and of Mr. Borden to this country might have proved adequate for the purpose.

The secre- tary's decision in dropping their show in favour of that of the United Counties had proved to be a wise one, as they started the vear with only 18s. to their credit, whereas they were now practi- cally £ 50 to the good. The success of the show was really due to their secre- tary. The adoption of the balsMice .slicet was agreed to. The pr<?id<?ut submitted h'? D?mo of Mr. H.

Daniel Jones. Mr. Williams w4as under the im- pression that were trying to force him to give up the Jajfd, or rather to coniisoate it. The Chairman thought lie had made a grc-at inista-jve iii the matter a.s to the duty of the Ornnod. The bast thing thoy could do was to leave the matter in the hands of Mr. Williams and Mr. Daniel Jones. There were other loads in the district requiring attention. The Rev John Thomas s?id it w?s qmtH e^vidence Mr._JW;flluims wa? not ('Nidencc Wi-tliztms ni?t <xmv i nf?c} on tbc .??W' everything possible had boen done.

John Thomas, the Clerk sid that they were going to get money from the tenants, and it was hoped to put the road in proper order with that money and the £ 30 grant. Mr. T. J onCH Hay asked who would pay if theue were any deficit. The Chairman asked the. surveyor to give an estimate. The Surveyor replied that he could not at the time; lit- understood that the estimate was to be made if the negotia- tions failed. Mr. Tom Morris said lie was willing to witlidraw his motion. They had, heard complaints from the people all through.' Rev. J. E..Tones said they had' not finished their work; they wanted to get ;hat conference off if possibly. Tho Clerk suggested that a meeting should be arranged between the tenants and a deputation from the Council to ascertain what the leaseholders would be willing to contribute. Mr. '$* Jonc-s Hay proposed that, and also that an estimate of tho cost of the road be made from the boundary of Mr. Daniel Jones's property round past Lloyd's house to the inside boundary of Betliania Cltapel- It was ultimately agreed that tho boundarv be the north-east of Mr. Evan Jones's Tiouse, and that a meeting be- tween the leaseholders of the houses and a deputation from the Council be arranged with a view to ascertaining what the former were prepared to con- tribute towards the oost. A deputation was formed as follows: Mr. T. Jones Hay, Rev. J. E. Jones, Rev. John Thomas, Mr. Thos. Thomas, the Surveyor, and the Clerk. The Lighting Committee met on Jan. Gfch, when the clerk reported that he had written to the Garnant Gas Com- pany, and he received a reply that a representative would meet the com- mittee. Mr. H. Russell arrived, and stated that one man would be required to put out eighty lamps per night. The lease on the roads was for thirty jem-e. He aho quoted a number of figures. The lamps were to b? 70 caudle power in some nh, and 150 caudle power in other positions. Tlw clerk was instructed to write to Mr. Fuller* asking wihoat reduction in cost could be niitio with legard to the pillars required. At the adjourned meeting the Clerk announced that he had written to Mr. Fuller, who quoted figures, and also wrote that ho could got pipes cheaper thai) the company. Thfc clerk was t t i?ii-I. the instructed to writo that the committee w<ere disappointtxl with the rate. The meeting wa.s again adjourned, when it w as decided to recormneiid gas liglitiligj gas to he purchased at 3s. 2u. per 1,000 cubic and also that the scheme be gone into with all sp eed. Mr. John. Rees asked if it would be necessary to liold an inquiry. The "Clerk replied in tbe negative, and added that the Local Government Board were not bound to make any in- quirv. With regard to the loan, which was £ 606 lis. BeL, he thouglit it could easily be got. Partic.ula.rs were ready for tl:e Local Government Board. Later he said tliat tIllt'Y had not exceeded the maximum sum, they could borrow £ 16,000 yet Mr. Topi Morris said it was no g rule for the Locnl Government Boaj d to. lioicl inquiries into such small sums oi money. ill v. T. Joi.es Hay proposed that the report be adopted.—Mr. T. Jiorris sec- onded, and it was carried. The Clerk said they waited to pass a resolution to the effect that application be made, so that the money be borrowed for the undertaking. Mr. John Roes proposed that permis- sion tc borrow £ 460 15s. for 10 years ho applied for to the Local Government Board. Rev. John Thomas seconded, and it was carried. it was decided to apply for permis- sion to get a loan of £ 150 6s. for five years, and that the money be got from the .Public Works 1/oam.

The Medical Officer reported tliat scarlet fever was .still prevalent in the district, there being twenty ea.sesre- ported since t?M last meeting. The ?aDit?r/ y conditions in g<?eral were better bur ho thought tb? ownerc4i should be .a,ked to place notices up to prevent nuisances. A short timo ago a person in one house died of consump- tion, and the people jiving in the house did not see their way clear to pull the paper off the walls. He thought they should be made to understand that it must be done, and if they refused proceedings would have to be taken- lu cases where the inhabitants could not pay 110 thought the Council should. Mr. John Rees: Where are we to draw the line:- Rev. J. K Jones proposed that the medical officer use his own discretion fn the matter, and that the Council con- sider the cases separately. The motion was seconded and carried. An application for an inenxu-e in salary was received from the sanitary inspector, and it was decided to refer the matter to the Finance Committee. The Clerk stated that the committee appointed hy the Council to meet> a deputation from the Recreation Ground Commitrae recommended that the Coun- cil take over the ground, on condition tliat- the Park Committee pay" half the debt. The suggestion was agreed to by the Park Sub-committee, but upon it being taken to the main committee it was adopted. The Park Committee wanted to jllOW ddinitel); w hat they in- tended doing, as negotiations were pending with another body. The Council wanted them to pay towards the liability. Hey, J E. Jones thought it would be very unfortunate for the COUllcillf they took it over. The Recreation Ground Committee had not received the proper support of the inhabitants. The Clerk said he was a. member of the old I'iirlz Coi-niiiitt-e ot the new one. They 'intended to fO1 a cricket pitch for the summer tuid a football ground for the winter, but they were n-ow" going to leave it zlti it was at the present, time. Mr. Tom Morris said he would like to kndw what difficulty was in the way. Could they ta.ke it over with a standing debt, and was there any difficulty with regard to the leaser1 The Clerk said the lease was for 21 yearo, and according to the settlement of the estate, "the lease could not b. granted for more than 21 years. TJk: present- holder of the Dynovor Estate iiad promised that at the end of tlie 21 years they coukl have it for another 21, but they did not know what his successor might do. The park was bound to be open to the public all the year except on Saturdays and 12 days during the year. At the meeting held ljust Thursday night it was decided by the Park Committee that if they did not get something definite they would com- plete negotiations with the other people. llv. J J. Jones proposed the matter be left over for a month, and be placed I on the u_rsnda far ',h, next meeting. Mr. Th os. Thomas seconded. The.. Clerk oiici the committee only I wanted a resolution to know whether the Council were going to take it over I or not. Mr. Job Phillips did not think ths present- state of affairs- would allow j| thctu to take iL- over without- notice. Mr. H. Pollaucl 2sked what benefit I they would get by adjourning the matter. Were they going to adjourn j for the councillors to thin k it OVell., The. Clerk isaid the. committee an- nounced that Lord Dynevor would not let them take it over paying half the debt. Mr. H. Folland proposed that the matter he left to stand as it was. He failed to see why the Council should foist upon the ratepayers a debt of £ 300 to cater for the sporting fraternity of the district. Mr. J. Phillips seconded the motion, and on a vote being taken there were four on each side, the Chairman giving his casting vote in favour of adjourn- ment. The Chairman said lie had a very pleasing duty to perform that night, and it was to congratulate Mr. Tom Morris on IKS elevation -to the Bench. His public services were well known, and he was of great use to the district. The appointment lw-d ginm great delight and satisfaction in the. di_ strict. He proposed that a resolution con- gratulating Mr. Morris be put on zhis books. Mr. II. Foiland seconded, and said it was r., groat honour both to Mr. Morris himself and to the working class in the district. Mr. Job Phillips seconded, and the motion was carried. Mr. T.

—,— —-— 1 My 11 -4 ired Feet I Ached for TIZ I Hr/ gt?nws, "?cw grand Ti Z makes! ffiredi s?wt?n, sore, pers?trtng  foet feet." j I Just take your shoes off and then put I those weary, shoe-crinkled, aching, burning, corn-pestered, bunion-tortured ??e t of yours in a TIZ bath. Your toes will wrtg?o with joy; they'll look up at you and almost mik and then they'll take another dive in that 1HZ bath. When your feet feel like lumps of lead—all tired out—just try TIZ. It's grand. Your feet will dance with joy; also you will find all pain gone from eorno, hard skin, and bunions. There's nothing like TIZ. It's the only remedy that draws out all the poisonous exudations which puff up your feet and cause foot torture. Get a 1/11 box of TIZ at any chemist's or stores-don t w.tÍt. Ah! how glad I your feet get how comfortable your I shoes feel. Yoa can wear s hoes a size smaller if you desire.
