This will en- tail considerable expense on the part of the townships, and Engineer R. C. McKnight, who has charge of the v/ork of reconstruction, is being kept very busy looking after them. All of the bridges are comparatively small ones, howevei*, and it will not be more than a couple of months be- fore they will be completed and ready for use. Three of the bridges are in Euphrasia, two in Artehcsia and th PC in Pcntinc!;, Iwo in St. Vincent and one in Holland at Massie, while the bridge just south of Neustadt, which is a county one, will also have to be replaced at once. In addition to the bridges there are a nuuber oi nlaces whr^rf* the roads have been washed o'lt, and they will also have to be replaced. To Lay Tarvia Road Reeve Findlay cry service.

G. KARSTEDT -:- Flesherton Miss Macpbairs Letter Blockade against the Post Office estimates, and the Divorce Bills have 'occupied another week. A fresh storm broke over Mr. Veniot, Postmaster General, Tuesday afternoon. It concerned the conduct of one, W. P. Griffith, who was junior post office inspector in the St. John district. In the case of two post offices, called Dupey'g Corners, and Shediac, payments were in arrears. These back payments had been paid over to W. F. Griffith who did not turn them in to the Department for several months after he received them, inthe meanUme he appears to have been promoted, rather than censured for his conduct, and also had his salary increased. Mr. Veniot stated that the man fin- ally turned the money over, and that his rating according to ability was very high. Mr. Veniot has done a number of things open to grave criticism. Every time the Government tries to move to supply on his estiinates, someone moves an amedameat, which takes the nature of a Want of Confidence Motion. I wish it were possible to vote censure on one Minister and have him removed fom the cabinet. f It were found necessary, and then c^fn w!u °^ '*** "°"«« ''°">d pro- ceed. \V ith our present idea of Cab- the whole Cabinet or none, which to me does not make sense. | In regard to divorce, the Ottawa Citizen has an editorial on the sub- ject, Wednesday, May Ist. Among other things it says:- "Mr. Woodsworth and those other members of the Commons who have joined forces with him in keeping before Parliament the question of a more suitable tribunal in which pet- itions for divorce in Ontario shall be heard, have rendered signal service by the course they have pursuea -since the bill to establish a divorce court in this province was rejected rome time ago.-It is hard to see tn \.ha other way he could have done what he has.
