H0LmE8v1LLE EstinE-R. -. The
County Council, last week, adopted
the report of the Road Commission-
ers recommendine the building of e
bridge across theMaitland River
near Holmesville. It will cost prob-
ably $2,590, and Messrs. Hardy erid
Mason are instructed to secureplaus,
advertise for tenders, and have the
bridge emceed as soon as possible.
Although eonsiderable opposition
might have been expected to this
really necessary work, we are glad
to know that the County. Council_
were almost unanimourily in favor of
it. Without detracting from the
sound judgment and desire eo do
right of other members we may state
that Reeve and deputy Reeve Geese
er have much to answer for in .this
Holmesville bridge construction af-
fair. These gentlemen have tie in-
gratiated themselves into the favor
of their fellow -members that, as ese,
eral of them remarked, "we could
not refuse Corbett and Cooper
any reesonable request." The
buildiug a this bridge wite a
reasonalefe ,request and Messrs. Cor-
bett and Cooper asked for it. Wbile
the citizeus of Clinton will check off
their representatives with a fed
mark eor their qniet and persuasive
persistence, we eannot dismiss this
subjeet without again remarking An,
the Oseoce of sectional feelinf
among the members of the COmitY
Council. This bridge will be of
great advantage to the residents of
Colborue and Goderich , townships.
It will give easier access to Godeiech
town and to Clinton. It will es-
pecially be a boon to many farmers
whose market town Is dlinton.
