The westerly portion of the city.‘ nearest the city of St.~ John, _ has been designed as a residential â€" disâ€" trict. _ The streets depart from â€" the old fashioned "gridiron‘"‘ design and follow broad, sweeping curves. _ ‘The cross streets converge upon a cenâ€" %re where the municipal buildings will be erected. Ample provision has been made for parks and playâ€"grounds. To the south of this district, _ factory sites have been provided, and _ one large factory is already under _ conâ€" struction: The uplands to the _ east have, been divided into _ garden plots, varying in size from one to fourteen acres. A water suppty will be obtainâ€" ed from a nearby stream, a â€" dam and storage reservoir being under conâ€" struction.

The plan inâ€" cludes an area of about 600 acres, mll of which is under the control of, the promoting company. ‘The erecâ€" tion of houses and other buildings on the English coâ€"operative plan â€" will be, proceeded with during the present year. s Coldbrook garden city is a piece of constructive work in city planning, the , development _ of which will be watched with great interest by city dwellers in every part of Canada. ‘A most interesting expertment from the standpoint of the civic improver is about to be carried out in the Proâ€" vince of. New Brunswick. It will conâ€" sist ui the adaptation of the well tem and all other requirements of a modernycity will be carefully _ conâ€" structed and regulated. â€" To the wisdom of the carly \\fater‘ Commissioners of Berlin and \\'atfl'â€"‘ loo a$ shown in their â€" adoption OIi the meter system of selling water is no _doubt due in largeâ€"measureâ€" thel success that has attended the operaâ€" tion oi these two plants. ‘ Cities like Torontoâ€" which toâ€"day are &n dire straits owmg to the shortage of their water supply might _ have avoided most of their present troubles by selling water by meter instead of the present flat rate plan under which practically no check on waste is posâ€" sible. * . o According to *"Conservation" _ milâ€" liens of dollars are squandered annuâ€" ally in United States and _ Canadian citiecs simply because of inefficiency in this branch of municipal service. 2. Ail water works plants, whethet pumping or gravity, sufler loss in distribution through _ underground leakage from matns and services. Reâ€" cent surveys in some leading Ameriâ€" can citics disclosed the existence of an immense number of underground leaks. _ In the city of _ Washington alone, in the past five yeatrs, a total of 30,000,000 _ gallons daily _ from about 3,000 underground leaks . were found, chiefly in mains and service pipes.

Lastly, one of the most serious wastes is due to the extravagant use of water by consumers. . This class of "leak"‘ is almost invatiabiy found in citics where meters, or some other method of checking extravagance, are mot in use. _ In this connection _ the experience of Kalamazoo, Michigan is instructive. ®‘steals‘‘ by consumers, who are pro vided with meters. These are each easily remedied. Advertising rates reasomable and will be made knowa on application. Water waste may be due to one or more of a number of causes of which the chici are the follow§ng: 1. Pump slippage, which _ implies that there is a loss of pump _ capaâ€" city, steam and fuel. â€" 8. Then there is fréequently setious waste due to defective plumbing, and During the year ending March 1893, with a population of less than 18,000, mo meters and 30 miles of mains, the fotal pumpage was 787,;2\,903 gal ‘The copy of changes must not. be Garden Cities in Canada Water Waste ilons. for which the department receivâ€" ed $15,000. In 1912, with all the l:cr\"m's metered, a population of 45,â€" beeis added, the Berlinp Housing Comâ€" pany, already referred to in _ these columns, and the Home Reâ€"union Asâ€" sociation of Berlin and Waterloo. The objects of _ this latter organization, like those of its immediate foreâ€"run mer are most laudable, and the cne is a logiwal sequel to the other. The former is comerned with the provis ion at the minimum of cost of suit able houses for workingmen‘s howes, and the purpose of the latter organiâ€" zation is to lengd financial assistance to workingmen who have come _ uut from the old country and who have )Pl‘fld themselves reliable, in sringâ€" }hg out their _ wives and _ families. ;Home Reâ€"union Associations _ have proved a great boon in other cities and plenty of work awaits the â€" pew organization in Berlin. In addition to the moral and phianthropic beneâ€" As was to have been expected the hearing of the Proudfoot â€" charges against Sir James Whitney and lion. ®. J. Hanna proved a fiasco so far as affording opportunity to prove the serious charges is concerned. With a jury packed four to one against him who ruled against the admission â€" of essemtial evidence offered _ by _ Mr. Proudfoot‘s counsel concerning _ the circumstances surrounding the receipt of $500 by Mr. Harna from a Govâ€" ernment contractor, and the manipuâ€" lation of certain coal and underfeed stoker tenders, Mr. Proudfoot was amply justified in his action in _ inâ€" structing his _ counsel to â€" withdraw from the case and himself refusing to testify, thus allowing Mr. _ Hanua‘s counsel and jurymen to proceed with their whitewashing operations accordâ€" ing to their own pleasutre. It was quite in order, therefore, that the proceedings should be wound up with au exchange oi bouguets in the form of certificates of character between the accused and the application of a thick coat of whitewash by their counsel. are rapidly increasing.

Sir James Whitney and Hon. W. J. Hanna will remain under a cloud of suspicion in connection _ with the Proudioot charges until they _ are cleared up before a proper and _ imâ€" partial tribunal. The committee‘s action in _ closing the lid on the inyuiry as it did has rendered valueless any report it may present to the Iouse. f 000, and 78 miles of mains, _ the pumpage _ was 698,898,597 â€" gallons, anl the revenue $42,773. A compariâ€" son of these figures shows that | in 1912, when meters were used, the pumpage was 90,723,105 gallons less tham in 1893 and the increase in the revenue amounted to $27,773. At the same time, the population of the city increased by 150 per cent. â€" and the mileage of mairis by 160 per cent. Again, it has been found, both in American and Canad an cities, that very serious waste occurs as a result of defective pumps, mains or connecâ€" tions. _ During a pitometer survey, recently made, of the pumping staâ€" tions and mains of a city of Eastern Canada, leakages were discovered agâ€" gregating 4,000,000 gallons a day, an amount equal to about 25 per cent of the city‘s total consumption. _ A broken threeâ€"inch main to a disused foundry was found discharging full bore into a sewer, and this, with a leak in a oneâ€"inch service to the same foundry caused a daily loss of 2,100,â€" 000 gallons. During less than three months a total leakage of 4,000,000 gallons per day was discovered. In this city it was found that the gasâ€"works were using 125,000 gallons per day but were only paying a flat rate ut $245 per anmum whereas this quantity of water at the iminimum meter rate of only 6 cents per 1,000 gallons .should have produced a reveâ€" nue of $2,737.50. A paper mill using about 137,000 gallons per day . paid $27 ker annum instead of 224.

As a matter of fact more pusiâ€" ness was done in five days than durâ€" ing the whole session since Nov. 21st. The manner in which the work went on absolutely proved the Oppostiion contention that they had never . had asy intention of obatructing the busiâ€" mess of Parliament except with reâ€" gard to the Naval Bill, which they felt bound to oppose by every constiâ€" ftntioul means in their power. The govermument . has beem laboring © to spread the impression that a deitberâ€" ate effort was being made to hold up the business of parKiament. This e[â€" Llon to excuse legislative incompetâ€" ence and the closure has fallen to the through their third readingâ€"The Gold and Silverware Markings Bill, _ the Bill regulating the use . of radiqâ€" telegraphy, the West Indian _ trade agreement, the Aid to Agriculture Bill, and the Highways Ald Bill. While Japan and the United States are indulging in war talk over the antiâ€"Japanese legislation passed _ by the State of California, Canada has long had the whole vexed _ question of immigration from Japan amicably settied. ‘There is no law â€" forbidding the Japanese settling in Canada, nor any antiâ€"Japanese legislation. By a friendly arrangement between the two nations . the _ Japanese government strictly regulates the _ number _ of Japanese emigrating to Canada. The dignity of both nations is thus preâ€" served, and what might have proven groumd for a bitter quarrel or . perâ€" haps war was avoided. This was the work of the Laurier government, and the delicate negotiations which have proven so beneficial for Canada were made by Hon. Rodoiphe Lemicux in 1909. _ Even the Borden government cannot prevent Laurier‘s work from going on. s The changes in the Library Act by. which business meu are being replacâ€" ed. by tenchys on _ the _ boards have raised such a storm of protest throughout the province that _ Dr. Pyne who is responsible for them is understood to be considering the reâ€" peal of the legislation. Im view _ of the fact that there was no demand for the legislation and that Library Boards have been doing very satisfacâ€" tory work as at presert constituted, it is hard to see what it was hoped to gain by ths change. In the Legislature last week a resolution was _ introduced providing for the creation _ of a nonâ€"partizan civil service commission, with adeâ€" quate powers, and _ that all appointâ€" ments and promotions in ~The â€"public service, where practicable, shall be by merit after suitable competitive examination. Ilere was a splendid opâ€" portunity of introducing the _ merit system in comnection with provincial appointments. The local member, Mr. C. H. Mills, who has styled himself & "Whitney Tory" remained loyal to his chief and voted against the proâ€" pased reform.
