Mr. Robert Wright of Leaming- item, a native of Flesherton, receivâ€" ing the appointment. Amongst the communications was the account of the Owen Sound Collegiate Institute for $419.00 for county pupils for 19: teaching days in the year. Mr.} Cook, High Constable of Grey, reâ€" ported that the administration of Justice showed a gratifying d1;3-‘ crease in crime in the county. He helped Mr. Matt. Beckett in twenty cases, and they got seventetm con- victions. He said that Mr. Beckett understmid the law, and enforces it ‘to the utmost. The report of the Finance. Committee, amongst other things, 1ecommended that the licen- ,ses 01 auctioneers be $25; that the ’twencral and Marine Hospital he wanted $1,;000 that the estimates 1‘01 the next year be 1eceiV ed; that (ertain letters he 1eceiV ed and filed; that the widow of the late school inspector of South Grey, Mrs N.\\. .’ . : Campbell he giV en the sum of $250 in (onsideration of the exceptional >e1V11 es of her late husband; that the basis tor the equalization of as- sessment he the same as last Vear, _.- 1 V i7..: iArtemesia ............ $1 500 000 00 Bentinck ............. 1,800 000 .00 Collin gwood .......... 2,000,000.00 Derby ................ 1,230,000.00 Egremont ............ 2,,100 000. 00 Euphrasia ............ 1,800,000.00 = ('llenelg ............... 1,100,000.00 Holland .............. 1,360.000.00 Keppel ............... 1,108,885.00 Normanby ............ 2,500,500.00 Osprey ................ 1,600,000.00 Proton ................ 1,870,500.00 Sarawak .............. 281,900.00 St. Vincent ........... 2,000,000.00 ' Sullivan .............. 2,013,500.00 ‘ Sydenham ............ 2,043,500.00 1 Owen Sound .......... 4,000,000.00 : M eaford .............. 700,000.00 1 Durham ...... , ....... 450,000.00 1 Hanover .............. 700,000.00 1 Thornbury ...... . . . . . 200,000.00 1 Chatsworth .......... . 115,000.00 4 Dundalk .............. 200,000.00 .1 'Neustadt .............. 130,000.00 *1 Markgale ............ 275,000.00'1 Each of the applicants for the"), po- sition of school inspector spoke for a few minutes and, in most cases, showed that they possessed all the requirements for the position. One or two. in particular, stood out prominontly as being particularly well fitted for tho p<:wsit.ion, and the matter of maki g a. choice was con- cmlnd to be a hard one. 'i‘uesday's session of the County council was marked by two inter- esting features. First, Mr. S. J. Parker, the venerable treasurer of the county, submitted the estimates and financial statement. for the year and second, the applicants for the position of Public School Inspector were permitted to address the counâ€" cil in their own behalf. A large number of acctmnts were read by {the clerk, and several reports of {committees were received. The treasurer estimated an expenditure of $256,900.88 for next year which would cover $40,000 of a deficit for the present year. This deficit was caused by the large grants of Pat- riotic and Red Cross funds, and for which no proviSitm was made last year. The estimates were largcm than ever before and included Sit-l 141.08 for schools, $11,000 for admin- istration of Justice, $15,000 for or- dinary expenditure, and $66,191 for other county work, including mis- cellaneous expenditure. Funds to provide for patriotic grants and this year’s deficit. made up the balâ€" ance of the estimates.

He also recited the steps that had been taken by the Provincial (im- 1 1'11‘11n1ents since 1001 to assist the c1f111struction of better roads. In * 19M. 11 report was made by the ecunmissioners who had been apâ€" pointed to look into the matter. to the otl'ect that the new Conditions made it, imperative that an enlarg- ed grmd roads scheme should be ad- opted. They recommended that.I SS0 000 000 be spent in 1.3 wars in the Prmime to stcure good roads; 312000.000 to be proyided by the province; a like sum by the muniâ€" cipalities intorestml and hall” of that sum by the cities. In 19“) I there were 52.000 n11.1ti‘1rs in the pro- Vince, from which the fees amount- ed to $665,000 and up to June of this year there had been paid into the prminco the sum ol‘ S710.000 and it was estimated that the amount thus collected would exceed $800,000 and that next year the amount cti1llccted from auto owners would reach the sum of Sl.000,000. He. considered that the report. was conservative, and tlmugh ci'1mprehensive. was away short of actualities. If it were (lillicult to keep the roads in repair before the general :‘1doption of the auto. it was much more so now. The autos were not the only vehicles [that caused destruction of roads. t and trailic caused wear. To meet the necessities. the Ontario Govern~ ment amended their legislation and at present their road construction legislatit‘m was the most advanced of any in existence. There were. three main phases of the Highway Legislation, first of which was the. selection of the main county roads, possibly 15 per cent. of the total mileage of the county, second, to appoint. a suitable superintendent of construction at a salary ax erag ing S1, 500 per year, of which the gm ernment would pay 40 per cent" and a committee of three from the council. An engineer would be pro- vided free by the government, and third, the government inspector, which was characterized by the speaker as helpful rather than‘crit- ical. The cost on a “pay-asâ€"youâ€"go” plan, worked out on a basis of 11/5 mills on the county assessment, would be $48,000, to which the gov- ernment would add $32,000, or a toâ€" tal or $80,000 per year. This would figure out at a cost of $2.94 for each 100 acres on an average, or a per Leave was granted to Mr. Squire Ito address the council on the matter 10f Good Roads and the adopthm of lthe County Roads’ Scheme of the. ll’rm'incial IQ)opartmcnt of High- Iways. Ho began by C(lllgl'fltUlUtng 'the warden and the council on the manner in which the business of the county was handled and then took up the quosthm of good roads, which, he cl‘biisidcred. the most im- portant, 1n~ovincial question, as the highways were the most impliirtant means of transpln‘taticm, being of double the importance of both rail and water transport. The highâ€" ways of the province rm.)rcsented the greatest sii‘igle item of munici- pal ownership in the prm'ince. The {municipalities have the Ct'llltI‘Ol of the c<mstruction and maintcnzmce of the roads but. have no say as to what. class of vehicle uses the road. The old system was all right for the class of vehicle that was using it, but. since the advent of the moâ€" tor car. tho old system was found wanting. and a change in the conâ€" structhm 0f the road was made no.» cossary. Mr! Squire said that it was a. former member ol.‘ the coun- ty council, Mr. M. K. Richardscgni. Registrar of South Grey, who first suggested that. the government should subsidize roads and that, the then Premier, Hon. A. S. Hardy. in 1901. brought. down a hill amn'opriu ating.r one million (ltflllilI‘S for this work. That was done hetero the advent of motors for general use. Messrs. Colgan and Sudden intro- duced the bylaw appointing an in- jspector for South Grey. On the sec.â€" ond reading of the bylaw in com- mittee of the whole with Mr. W eb- ster in the chair, the following names were submitted, being nom- inated by various members of the council: Messrs. Wright, Smith, Preston, Morrison, Davidson and Grillin. The latter two were tied for last. place and were drOpped af~ ter the first ballot. The second bal- lot gave Wright 20. Smith 10. Pres.- ton and A'iorrisim each 5. The next ballot was between Messrs. Wright and Smith, and resulted in the seâ€" lection of Mr. Wright by a vote of 22 to 18. An effort was made by Mr. Calder of Durham, to have it in- corporated in the bylaw that the person receiving the appointment must reside in Durham, and when this was dt‘PfOIlth put in another amendment to the effect that he must keep an ollice in that. town. This met the same fate as the latâ€" ter. The new inspector is to com- mence his duties on July 2nd. 141,115.00 135,000.00 Mr. Squire has a pleasant manner and has an undeniable knowledge of his subject and his talk was lis- tened to with exceptional interest by every member of the council. After Mr. Squire had finished his address, leave was "ranted to intro- duce bylaw No. 879, a. bylaw for the adoption of the Government County Highways Scheme and it was given its first readinc. A schedule, based on the local assessment, was proâ€" posed by Mr. Squire and attached to the bylaw providing for the conâ€" struction of approximately 420 miles. The roads will be built at the conclusion of the war. Adjourned until 'l‘hursday. On Thursday, after the minutes were read, a number of communi- capita cost. of 14 cents. He pointed out that at present the townships were paying for poorer roads the sum of 875,207 per year and were receiving no government grant. The roads in Grey County totalled 2,637.
