For weeks past Godench has talked
railway. The time is caning whin 'se-'
tion will be the order of the day. Al-
ready railway schemes, having Goch
for the objective point, are beg' ing
to assume shape, and something tangi-
ble is b,omin,{ up in the near future.
At present there are several routes in
contemplation, and we will proceed to
deal with them srrie(iwt:
Perhaps the shortest line to the Pro-
vincial
iovincial capital would be to Winvham,
where the T. G. & tl., would be connec-
ted with. This line would be about 145
or 150 miles in length, from Ooderich to
Toronto, and, if there were ne possibili-
ty of it being swallowed up eventually
by the Grand Trunk, it would nu doubt
be a good line. But as matters now
stand, it is a question whether the T. G.
& B. will not fellow the fete of the
Stratford and Port Dover, and, in due
course, Dane under the influence of the
G. T. R. The question as to the right
of ownership, between the Northern
and the Grand Trunk is now pending,
and until a decision is given in the rat-
ter, by the courts, definite action on the
part of Goderich cannot be had.
Next, there is spoken of a line t., con-
nect at Brussels with the Great Western,
over which, it isclaimed, running powers
can be had in the interest of the Credit
Valley Railway to Elora, and thence by
C. V. It. to Toronto, This line is esti-
mated at 161 miles in length, and al-
though a little longer than the T. G. &
I. is looked npon with favor by many money, the beat harbor on Lake Huron,
who would prefer an eastern connection) sod the Government harbor of refuge
was formed at Goderieh, which is a
'sating proof of the energy and ambi-
tion of the people of Goderich.
In the face of the foregoing, what can
be.said of those who systematically.mis-
represent the county town, and would
have:outsidets to believe that Goderich
is inhabited by a race of Rip Van
Winl)esl As we stated before; utaliee
ur ignorance, or both, must inspire the
pen that writes the libel. Goderich is
not dead, -is not even sleeping, -but is
wide-awake. 'line, owing to eireum-
stances outside of the control of its in-
habitants, she has nut been sofas able to
benefit to so gieat.an extent as her en-
ergy and earnest efforts deserved. The
anslgamatiun of the Buffalo and Lake -
Huron railway and the Grand Trunk
railway was the first drawback to tbs
town's prosperity; then followed. the

Goderich must be accorded the principal
*redo of bringing its the Buffalo and
Lake Huron R. R. to the Huron tract,
a concern in which she invested over
$100,000 some twenty-three years ago.
Our town also initiated the gravel roads

etc. , and had it forwarded to the Michi-
gan sufferers. Thera is a whole sermon
in that act, if mute of the preachers
would take the subject up.
Tus Dublin City Council is still having

outside could not comprehend their
value to trade 'sed commerce. The
gravel road north to Lucknow was built
by a company composed principally of
Goderich capitalists, many of whom re-
ceived but poor returns for tlleir omo ney,

try was first discovered in Godench, and
the residents of the town sank over
$500,000 in endeavoring to develops the
industry. With the aid of Government,
and by a large expenditure of town
at 13russels, rather than the more nor-
therly one at Winghaun There are
some, however, who coutend that heavy
engineering difficulties will be enco in-
tetred in the building of this line, and
they claim that this will militate against
the project being successfully pushed.
To our mind, engineering difficulties are
not confined to any particular line, and
if they are not encountered at one place
they will be at another. Besides, the
main object to be noted is, whether the
requisite bonuses can be obtained along
the route; and if anything definite
could be gotten from the municipalities.
along the line, regarding the successful
raising of a•suni sufficient to justify a
company in running the extension, the
engineering difficulties would lean van-
ish into thin air.

nection with the Credit Valley I:. p. 'abrogation of the Reciprocity Treaty
