Quite adjsusi�n occurred over the probability and teasability of Gode• rich becoming a terminus of the Can- ada Pacific Rallway. Thes.Junios member for St. Davit's spoke elo- quently on this subject end gave great weight to the arguments be ad- duced •on this acceptable theme. Other members spoke on this subject, ;nest of whom seemed to think that Goderich was still to the front as a desirable station tor the C. P. R. A motion naming six members: Mayor, Reeve, Deputy Retie°, Jordon, Det- kir,and Lee -to proceed to Montreal On 'Monday to interview the 0. P. IL officials was unanimously Adopted. Several qeestions including the de• airability of amalgamating the offices of street Inspector and Collectoe with that of Assessor.
