Byâ€"law 644, relating to the governing of the bouse of refuge; bylaw 645, reâ€" specting the remuneration of the public school inspectors of the county of Grey ; (M6, to deirne a pulicy as to the guaranâ€" teeing of debentures by the county of Grey ; byâ€"laws M7. relating to the deâ€" bentures of the town of Owen Sound were introduced and read a first and second ‘ime and moved into committee, Bylaw 644 wos a lengthy document preâ€" pared by the county solicitors and dealt minutely with all the details of governâ€" ment. _ The only clause to cause discusâ€" sion was on the principle of maintenâ€" ance, â€" The clause stated that each local municipality within the county of Grey shall pay to the county treasurer the actual cost of the board and wearing »r‘;mrel supplied to the ?‘vrsom commitâ€" ted to and received by the said house of refuge fromsuch local municipality less, however, the smount that such persons by their labor. actually earn while inâ€" mates of the said house of refuge. The amount so to be paid by each local municipality is, however, not to exeeed the rate of $1.50 per week for each perâ€" son so committed and received by the said house of refuge from such local municipality. Mr Brown moved, seconded by Mr. Schenk, that the clause be amended in order that the cost of maintenance should be paid prorata all ovyer the county. Mr Brown contended that the apirit of the house of refuge movement was defeated by the clause. _ In justice to every munieipality the county should meet the entire expense of maintenance and transportation. _ 1t would be maniâ€" featly unfair to the towns if left as in the by law. _ It was a wellâ€"known fact that when an improvident or unfortunâ€" ate individual has worn himself out and become decrepid as a farm laborer bLe drifts to the larger centres and there after doing odd chores around the place becomes acharge upon the municipality. It is not fair that the municipality which has derived all the benefit of the man‘s best years should thus be permitâ€" ted to shunt the cost of maintenance over to another municipality, upon which the individual has only been a resident for a a year or two. _ This was not the intention of the voters in Meaâ€" ford, and he was confident if the idea of making the house of refuge a pay house for each municipality it would have been defeated by a large majority. The clause as read would simply proyide a cause for an attack by such men as Jno M Davis, of his divieion, whose referâ€" erce to the keep of the indigent wasnot prompted by humane feelings. It would be the conversion of a noble charitable institution into a parody and defeat the very object for which it was erected. _ Besides he could only see a complication of accounts in the arrangeâ€" ment proposed by the bylaw. ~t a Patent‘‘," What srofluble to invent."and &’dulon Patents‘.

The plant and building were destroyed by fire with the thermomeâ€" ter 55 degrees below zero. â€"â€"One of the most serious accidents of the year occurred at Newmarket, Ont, a small town in York County last Wednesday morning. The damage was done at the works of the United Factories where about 60 men are emâ€" ployed and when the head engineer was absent. In some way, presumably from the water running too low, one of the four large boilers burst, causing the others to be blown through the buildâ€" ing,. bricks, &c, to be scattered a few rods in all directions, two fireman to be crushed to death, and sever other employes injured. The works will be started again about Christmas. â€"Industrics are starting up at the Sov again, and about 1000 men find employ ment. â€"Rumors are abroad that war has already started in the far East between Japan and Russia. â€"Another train wreck occurred near Chatham Monday evening when a a local train crashed into a freight.

Under the above heading or someâ€" thing like it, the Toronto Star, London Advertiser and other papers have drawn attention to the falseness of the cry of corruption so persistently used against the Reform Enrty for some years past, _ SBays the Adveruser: "Look at the records of the courts after the provincial election last year. After all the frantic «ccusations by the Oppoâ€" rition, after ascribing the imberal vic tory to the work of the **machine," what happened ? Six Conservative seats were protested, and only two Liberal seats. _ Four Conservatives were unâ€" seated and one Liberal. _ Six Conseryaâ€" tive workers were reported for cortupt practices and one Liberal.
