Cooper, and we canubt think he would willingly put his clients to the expense of a large pipe when a sell one would suffice. We had quite recently a rather alarming demonstration of what e tropi.al rain-storm is, and we om sympathise with Mr Leigh in his endeavour to safeguard his clients from the disaster that befel many houses" in the month of May. At any rate the subject was a Gt one to refer to the Hoard.
But with the charge that Mr Cooper la attempted to force the adoption of the oparate system we have more concern, as this is A purely public matter. In Mr Cooper's reply to Messrs Danby & Loigh's Grat letter, he asys - I have not, to the best of my knowledge and belief, in a single instance, allowed myself to be influenced, in carrying out the dution entrusted to me by the Board, by the separase system of drainage now under the consideration of the Government. Mr Leigh was fortun ately able to refresh Mr Cooper's nomory and to produca documentary proof of at least one instance in which Mr Cooper's zeal for the separate system had outron his discretion.
