THE BOROUGH ELECTIONS

Wf. have to congratulate Councillors McKibbin and Troup on the renewed expression of confidence given them by the ratepayers at the poll yester day, and Councillor Cross on his election to the third vacancy. The good work done by the two first named gentlemen during their oc cupation of seats on the Council have earned for them the reward they deserved. Despite the fact that some of the other candidates were much more ostentatious as to what they would do in the event of their election, the sterling abilities o£ these two gentlemen were never for a moment lost sight of by the rate payers. Mr Cross has in a quiet unassuming way done much to wards the progress of the Borough, and his decision to lurther those efforts by taking a scat on the Coun cil met with the immediate approval of the ratepayers.
