Respectfully yours, JOS. PE-ZiOUND.,, EmmA PENFOUN'D. Tyrone, Dec. 9, 1896. aie tgien .01/'~~4«Wtpn COUNTY COUNCLL MÂTTERS. When political exigencies are para- mount social and denominational rela- tionships must be sacrificed with the average Tory. One thing is verv evident fromn the1 expressions at the Domination meeting iu the town hall, Monday, that is, the people of this riding are aîîxious for separation fromn Northumberland. Mr. Thos. Smale made one1 of the most acceptable reeves Darlington ever had and bis elertion b y acclamation Monday as County Councillor wasproof that his ability Ifor municipal service is stili recoguized. Couneillor Foster's address at the nomination Monday showed that hie is a perfectly safe ,inan'in whoîn to repose muni ial trust and responsibility. Men who make a success of their own business are usually safe onles to en- trust with public business. Reference was made bv some of the town hall Monday to the'shameful org- ies that take place af Cobourg in whicti the Ceunty Councillors are the promin- cnt actors. There is no fear that Messrs Smale and Trebilcock will countenance sncb debauches. There 'are varions opinions about wlxy the Reeve of Bowmauville gave up the race for County Counicillor. Sm think lie was aspiring to be Wýairdeni and finding that Joe. Preston bad the lead there was notbing lu tlhe position for hlm. The town loses nothing by the swap. The Reeve of Bowmanville is now of opinion that two sessions of 3 days cach xvas ample for transacting county busi- ness. This beiug so, how many thons- ands bave been wrougly taken froin the counties' exchequer. This added to the over $8800 drawn lnu-1893 for special committee meetings, $2500 in lu 1894 and $1962 in 1895 besides the * 'extras "that nsually-accompany bridge building will inake a sum of linge pro- portions. Electors will soon begin to think that they have been robbed with their eyes open. Thc nominations for Division No. 5 were held lu the Town Hall, Bowmau- ville. There was a fair attendance. The nominees were Messrs. Thoinas Smale, P. C. Trcbilceck, Dr. Hillier, M. A. James, R. Foster, L. M. Courtice, C. Osborne, Jos. Jeffery, R. Worth. lu order to save the expense of an clection lt was agreed that ail should retire ex- cept the two first named who were de- clared b.ýT1R. W. Scobbel, noninating efficer, elected by acclamation. Brief speeches xvere made by some of these men and Mr R. Foster spoke at somne leng-th on countyand townshipntatters. The meeting was strongly lu favor of separation of Durham fromn Nortbum- berlaud, several of the speakers favor- ing it. Messrs. Smale and Trebilcock made splenldid speeches and the elect- ors dispersed believing theY had chosen two wortby men to represent this dis- trict. Mr. F. H. Mason was chairman of the af termeeting. We direct attention of the electors of Clarke and Newcastle to the card of Mr W. Rickard lu this issue. We do not think we cxaggerate lun the lcast when we say that, all things cnsidered. mr, Riekard is the most capabille mn iiil the field for Countv Counicillor. Hi>cbas donc more to kcep down expIeniture at the Counties' Couîîcil se far aswe can judge than any man who bas1-, rep)re- seutied that district. At the nom-.ina- tion, xve are infermed bv one -wlîIo was present, bie madea splen did speech con- taining a -reat deal of information on Count'y ýýonncîîl matters.

One act of bis at the last ses- sion of the Counties' Council should win for hlîn tIc support of electors -that was the determined stand bie took against sending that delegation to Ot- tawa at tlhe counities, expense. Eleet- ors will conserve their own interests bv voting double XX for Mr. Rickard. An effort was made Mondav te eleet two men in No. 6 District (North Dar- lingto!i a nd Cartwright) -but tIc issue was abortive. Three nien arerunnince1 -Messrs. J. T. 1-ollovk and i ïr Devitt, thc former representatives and Mr. Thos. Baker, a new aspirant. Mr. Devitt was the cboicc of bis township,1 s0 that it virtnally rested with Darlirîg- ton to cboose a man. Mr. PollockIas made a good reeve, is one of tbe best posted mcaninthte township on municip-i al matters and bias been honored with1 responsible positions at the Counnues'1 Conneil. Mr. Baker lias been frequent-i ly uîged to go into tbe township couin-1 cil but alwavs declined, and now tliat bie bias accepted nomination for tIc Counties' Csuncil hie is sure of streng support. H1e lias been remarkably suc- cessful in lits own business, is a weil read 'man, a goed debater and sbould make a capable aud energetic public officiai. Electors will make no mistake in electiug 'eiher or both of these can- didates. COUNTY COUNCILLORS' DOINGS.
