In 1857 lie wai elected a member or the Council, and for eight eucceeiive yean wis re elscted aa Alderman. In I87.'l he waa elected Mayor, and again in 1885 bad the tame high honor conferred upon him. Dur ing hie adminiitration of the atTaire of the olfice he proved himielf a man of rare executive ability, and one poiaeiiiog a thorough graep of municipal matters. Aa a contractor hie name is intimately aiaooiated with many of the most important public worka of the Dominion, and he ranlia amongst that clasa of busi- ness men one of the shrewdest and most successful operators that ever prepared an estimate. Though well advanced in years he is seen on the streets every day, and the portrait of him on our cover is a faithful likeness. His has been a busy life, and all who know him hope that he may be spared for many years to enjoy the fruits of his brilliant and successful career. TOI^OnSTTO ZLLXJSTR-A.TEDD JOHN T. MOORE.

He became Alderman for St. Paul's Ward when Yorkville was annexed to Toronto, and in 1884 he was re elected to the Toronto City Council over two other candidates. At the end of his term he re- tired from the City Council on account of press of business.

ALDERMAN FIMNKLAND, A capital likeneaa of whom appeart oo our cover, may fairly be called the father of the ooean cattle trade. He waa the lirtt to recognize the poeailtility of ehip- ping live cattle tu Kcgland, and he wat (juick to graap the opportunity. In leaaon and out of aeaaon he kept the matter prominent, writing many thoroughly practical articlea, explaining his viewn and proving himaelf perfectly ac<(uainted with the workinge of the cattle trade. Horn in Kagland, he well knew what tlie closely packed iohabitanta of the "tight little iaiand" wanted, he foresaw a grand opportunity for a profit- able ir.arket, and a correnponding heoetit to C'auadiao farmer!. For some time the clear headed Aldermau gave hit undivided attention to the matter, and lie- fore loni( had completed arrangemenia for taking over the flrat large cargo, contltting of ViJO head of bul< locks. The iosuraooe rates were then so hi^h that it took a heavy tigure to cover that first shipment, Mr. Frankland determined that no Iota should he laid at hit door, so he insured his own life for the value of the cattle, and then started, satisfied that if they were lost he would likely share the same fate, and his insurance would meet any Indebtednets. For over sixteen years he haa been ac tivaly engaged in the ocean trade, and has croaaed the Atlantic no less than sixty seven times. Me haa dona much to enlist the support «f the preaa of England and Scotland in the interests of the trsde, and haa told Canadian cattle in (iermany, Ireland and the Itla. Alderman Frankland is an Englithman through and through, one of thoae valu. able helpt to a jolony who, while they never lose their individuality nor twerve from tliiir allegiance to old attoclationt, yet have tulKoiently broadened viawa to readily adapt Ihcmtelves to circumstances, and he takes a delight in any venture calculated to draw Kaglith speaking people Into olotar interouurte For tome time he stood alone in his pat scheme, but wondroua changea are wrought in sixteen years, and he haa enjoyed the aatislaction of seeing the uooan cattle trade, from a mere experiment, grow in inipor tance steadily year after year n-M even hit eipecta tloos are now surpassed, London, Hrlsti,l, ftlatgow, Edinburgh, Manchettar, HirminKham, Iiaedt, >hof field, Liverpool and other great markata now regu larly receive unnalgnmeots of ('anadian cattle and ahaep, with mutual Uneflt to both sides of the Atlantic, and l>ryond a doubt the present •\ tensive trade Is but an indication of still larger future operations, ■ ■♦■ - - - I'ltOTKCTKJN A(iAIN8T KIRK The Fire Hrlgada uf the city Is one of the lisst t(|Uipped and moat perfect urganizstions in America.

The lubjaot of theae remarki ia a gentleman known to nearly every citizen of Toronto. He may fairly be termed one of the old guard aa hia memory datee haok to a time when thia great city waa of very email aooonnt. He waa born In the pariah of Kogart, Sutherland- thire, Sootland, in I80<, and in 1825 along with hia parante and aix brothera and aiatera came to Canada landing at Quebec; a few montha later he came on to Toronto and at the time of hia arrival there were but five brick atorea on King atreet. For a abort time he lived at Streetiville but aoon returned to Toronto and in 1837 permanently located here. Aa a hortlcultnriat hia name ia known all over the Dominion and hia nur- lariea at Ualleville were the moat exteniive Id Canada. Owing to the enormoua increaae in the value of city property it ia now being out up for liallding purpoaea, and land which only coat Mr. Lealle a moderate enm per acre ia much of it now worth one hundred doliara a foot It la therefore neoeaaary to ae- cure acreage outaide the city limi>a for the continuation of the nuraery buaineaa. Mr. Lealle ia a life member and director of the Horti- cultural Society and Botanical Gardena of To- ronto, ia a magiatrate and haa alao been a member of the city council. He ia deaervedly popular with all claiaea of the community and ie looked upon aa a grand lample of the olaia of men who built up the city of Toronto. Hia two aona, Mr. George and Mr. J, Knox Lealle, are prominent bueineaa men, and the latter ia an aldermanic repreeentative of the ward he Uvea in.

The Queen City of the West' will Iw 'given up to gaiety and excitement from Monday the .30th of June until Friday evening the 4th cf July. The carnival will be the event of the year In Toronto and will mark an er» in its history. Our population of two hundred thousand people can enjoy as wkII as anybody the sunny side of life, and when the 100,000 strangers that will be attracted by the glories ax the carnival to gather within our gates eflerveaoenoe lying dormant In nearly every roan, woman and child will commence to 6z over, and all will be merry as a marriage bell. King Carnival Is as absolute a monarch as ever sat oo a throne, but never a tyrant bad so many willing fol- lowers, and even in this democratic city his court will be thronged with courtiers, »d thongh it be but a court of folly, wise; men and fair women will bow sub- missive to the Monarch decree and all will be glitter, pomp and gaiety. Care and^worry are man's greatest enemies, and if carnival week will but banish them for a week, then support the monarchy that enjoins only one law— amusement— "Laugh and the world laughs with you. Weep and you weep alone." Every resident within the corporate limits of To- ronto should heartily join bands to make the coming carnival a glorious success. If they do their duty it will mark an epoch in the history of the Queen City, Those who are residents know what she is capable of, but to the one hundred thousand outsidors who ought to be attracted here it should prove a revelation. The processions, cava|.«des, military displays, dem- onstration! by national societies, illuminations, fire- works, and last and greatest of all King Carnival and his brilliant retinue will provide five days of wonder- ful transtormadons and glorions sight seeing. Let »11 rejoice at the opportunity that will b« afforded them of proving their loyalty to Toronto by each contributing of his energy and good will to make the oamival of 1890 a red letter day in our history.

Value of City Property Millions Have Been Miulo out of It. A Phenomenal Increase, but Based on A Solid Foundation. I'robably in no other city in America, of equal size, has the price of real eitate continued so steadily on the iDoresae as in Toronto. Years ago the wiseacres pro- phesied that the "boom" would soon run its course and leave unlucky speculators stranded. But the years have Hown, the city limits have been extended, building operations have gone on with marvellous rapidity, and still the real estate market continues to be a most fruitful sourse of tnoome to investors. This apparent mys- tery may lis easily explained by the fact that the word "boom," as applied above, Is simply a misnomer for what has lieen the direct result of the growing prosperity of our city. Some of Toronto's wealthiest oitisens have made all their money by ju- dicons investmsnts in real estate, and what is even more aignificant, the keenest and wiaeat among them are atill inveating their capital along this aame lice, and are in no grcitt harry to get rid of the lands already in their poaseasion. Properties that within the past ten years have jumped from twenty to eighty dollars a foot are still on the rise, and in the central busineaa portion of the city there is a steady demand at continually increasing pricea. Amongst the real estate dealera are acme of the ahrswdcat buainess men in the community, and the operations of the biggest amoDgat them are on alarge scale. The rocogniiied repreicntativp firm in the buainess is that of Messrs. ThorTu.>n & Dunatan, and at their three agenciee located in different sections of the city they are kept busy. Last year they turned over $2,000,000.00 worth of property, and already this ;'ear they have perfected sev- eral big deals. They are thorough maaters of the art of placing property on the market in attractive form, and many aweli residential streets today were planned by them and worked to a successful issue, Their deals are mostly on a large scale, and their clientage includes many of the representative capitalists and foremost corporationa. Both Mr. Thomaon and Mr. Dunatan are 6rm believers in the future of the (jueen City, and show their faith by purchaaing extensive properties on their own account. Their repreeentative at West Toronto, .Mr. Arthur Meredith, sod their eastern manager, Mr. Kvelyn Macrae, are also live men, and interests committed to their care are carefully guarded and energetically handled. Building operations are atill on a big acale, and a careful computation of the value of atructurea now in courae of erection foots up to about aix millions of dollars. The class of buildings are also of a high ord-^r, and whether it be in business blocks, private residencea, public buildings or churches, Toronto can stand ccmpariaon with Any other city of its aize in any country. The portraits on our laat naide cover are thcae of the 6rm of Thom- son ft Dunstan, and their looks plainly indicate they are hostlere, always on the jump for buaineaa. AUOUSTE JJOI.TE.

THE TORONTO INCANDESCENT KLEC- IRIC LIGHT CO. This company, wot king the Edison system, Is now organi/.ed under a charter from ths Ontario Uovern- ment, with a oapltel of 1260,000. A franchise hss been secured from the City Cerporaiion giving the company authoiity to Ny an underground service throughout the city. Laet, but by no mesne leaat, thisoompsny haa entered into a contract with the Edison Usneral Klectrio Co'y. which seonies to it in perpetuity the sole right to operate the valuable pat- enis ownsd or oontrolled by the Edison Interests. To summarise— Edison's' past triumphs and achievemente are behind them, and their future suooes* is as secure as Edison's genius, coupled with ths vast upiul ($12,000,000) of the Edieon company, oomblned with good bnsiness management and the bast electrical science and skill that they can command can make it. To-day the businea* of manufagtaring iccandca- oent light is aa atable and a* far removed from the realms of experiment as is the business of manufac- turing gas. The credit of forming this wealthy com- pany and seoaring aa iU Board of DIrsotots many of the representative business men of the oify, is due to to Mr. Fred. NIcholls, whose name Is prominently con- nected elsewhere with the Permanent Exhibition. The Edison Inoandeicent Light is as rsUable as gar, and sntlrely free from the msny objections there are against the former. The station will b« lun twenty- four houre every day thronghont the year. A con- sumsr can tarn on light at any mnmsnt just as read- ily as he can torn a gas jet. Whatever may be said of other systems, the Edison light has long passed the era of oxperiment, and on December Slet, 1848, there were in actual ace in the United 8taUa alone, a grand total of 1,360,000 Ediaon lamps, and It ia largely ase>'. in England and other countrlea. It Is so rellablo that the volums of light emitted is always exactly the same, and there are no complaints of poor light, as when gas pipes become dogged or frozen. To provide sgainat itoppago by reason of acoldenta every machine and appliance in the central aUtiou Is In duplicate and held in Immediate reserve for any possible emergency Another feature of the wonderful system which the genius of ICdison haa perfected is the fact that power from electric motore can be aapplled from ths eame main* aa the electric light.
