It seemed to him. however, that it it 3, and thin have an ex post facto 3 became law it would hardly be a benefit to the . farmers of the country. It would be a great hardship to a farmer to be compelled to mek the permission of one of those proposed tire . guardians before he could not out atire,no matter how small it might be. The nearest tire guardians miaht live a good many miles nway,and u settlerin a new district, who would hove most need of setting out fires, would be .eubjected to very great, inconvenience over what might be a very trilling matter. He ad- mitted the desirability, however, of the law being amended so as to diminish the damage done b bush tires, and favored the sending oi the bill'to the Municipal Committee. Mr. FRENCH remarked that his bill aimed " preventing the setting out of fires in old not. tied districts rather than in newly settled lu. . cslities. Hon. Mr. HARDY said the question of the appointment of tire guardians involved several other questions, such as to how these cum: f T dim were to be paid and how much they-were I. to be paid. These additional points made the matter considerably more serious. Rospon. -
