The refusal to grant licenses to the hotels in Menford puts the whole of North Grey in the dry belt, not a aingle license being now held in that part of the coun- ty.

Maudlin Sob Artists lu a sane article on the impending fate of Henry Love, the Owen Sound Times of last week voices the sentiments of the Advance when it says: "It may he said that no matter what the course of the minister of justice may be in the nmtter the weight of public opinion in this vicinity and in the neighborhood of Love's "11 home is overwhelmingly that he ought to hanu and that any commuta- tion of the rentence would be less than justice. Theae is of course tho maudlin sentimental persons who can woik up a cascade of tears on behalf of any wretch who i ver lived. All a man has to do is geD into jail on some heinous charge or other and at once these addle brains get busy with the fob art LSI peiformance. They do no fit usefully into tho general order of things." A joint committee of the couuties of Grey and Wellington met at. Page's bridge, in the township of Normanbyon Tuesday last, for tho purpose ofdetermining wheth- er they should undertake the rebuilding of this bridge or not. The bridge in ques- tion was put out of commission in the freshet 2 years ago, and seine of the residents of that neighborhood have threatened action if the budge is not re- buiit. Reeve Merns moved that the bridge be rebuilt, which motion wan car- ried. It is estimated thai the new struc tii re will cost from $14,000 to $16,000. Post.
