Tuesday, Mr. W. )I unns, representing
Bruner'& Nichol], Wholesalers, Toronto.
was in town, and having a thorough
knowledge of•tlte places in the county of
Halton was questioned as to the working i
of the Scott Act there, He stated that he
was not only satisfied from bis observation
that the Act had been a success, but he
also had abundant evidence from business
men in the different places, Jae claimed
that, all statements to the contrary net.
withstanding, business was on a much
better footing; in •Georgetown, Aeten'and
Milton, than it ever had been before the
passage of the Scott Act, and business men
found it easier to collect their accounts,
and the most of them . were satisfied with

the hotel accommodation of Georgetown
was now inferior to what it had been, he
stated that this was not so ; the hotel ac-
commodation there, he claimed, never had
been good, but he got just as good fare,
&e,, there under the Scott Act as he ever
did before. He had not the slightest
doubt as to what would be the result of
the prs ntAnti-Scott movement
there,
believing that:the Act would be maintain-
ed by a sweeping majority. He stated
that in his busness travels he bad taken
particular trouble to find out correctly
how matters-stdod. in Halton, and had no
hesitation in proclaiming the•Act a'bene-
fit and its administration a success, and
if thewas colifident that Act c w s serif ed
in Hurcin, one year's trial of it would con-
vince the most prejudiced, of its positive
benefits. .
