In

Mr.

address

Air.
Stephens'
Speech
"To
me
has
fallen
the
task
of
explaining
some
of
the
matters
affecting
the
ratepayers
of
this
city.
Under
the
circumstance
It
it
perhaps
less
difficult
to
criticise
than
to
offer
ways
and
mean
of
remedying
the
situation.
It
is
a
situation
that
has
been
developing
for
several
years
and
is
largely
due
to
lack
of
courage
of
council
for
the
time
being
to
balance
their
budgets.
Whatever
the
causes,
however,
it
is
time
the
ratepayers
were
taking
an
reverted
area.
This
is
not
all.
While
will
be
paid,
and
this
Is
extremely
1
doubtful,
it
would
only
give
some
$70,000
to
credit
against
these
it-,
ems.
Of
course
there
may
be
some
bonds
for
'recent
improvements
which
have
not,
or
cannot,
be
sold
to
place
against
these
borrowings,
but
an
estimate
of
9100,000
deficit
for
the
year
should
not
be
much
too
1
high
.if
it
i
high
enough.

as
those
of
Prince
Rupert."
continued
Mr.
Stephens,
"but
the
time
is
here,
when
we
should
look'
the
matter
squarely
in

face
and
try
to

ourselves
