You, Mr. Editor, after just finishing a two-year term in the city council, should at least know the facts of the matter, but if you will agree to meet me, and other rate-;yers (n public debate I shall iladly accept the opportunity to inform you and the ratepayers Just iiow much truth, there Is in the tatement you hare permitted to be published. This challenge Is Issued to you or any member or members of the Prince Rupert City Council, on condition that I, and one other member of the Ratepayers' Association, be given access to the assessment rolls, for the purpose of checking the C. N. R. reduction, referred to in your editorial and, of course, an equal number of debaters. If you accept the challenge I only ask that you give the meeting the same publicity you have given this editorial, ranging the speakers At the close of the meeting I agree to abide by the vo)e of the meeting as to whether you have proven your assertion; the loser to pay for the rent of the hall.
