THE BIG MILL BYLAW THE vote on the Big Mill bylmw will be taken on the 7th of Jonuary, and it will be well for the electors who .I9sire to see the town progress to give their best at- tention to the facts that have heen place.) before them. In another column we present an inter- view with r. X11 (law, the manager of the new milling enterprise, which speaks fur itself, and in the light of the advantages that will accrue to the town we believe it will be in the interest of the electors W vote for the granting of the pr;.lieges that are inked for by the new company. The new enterprise will differ from the old mill, not only in the extent of the busi- ness that will be done, but in the feet that iia trade and quotations on local grain will be entirely regulated from the Goderich dhoti, and not from Montreal, aa was fors merly the case. With the establishment of a first-class ex- port mill iu Goderich, and the business to be done by the new elevator, there is no reason why Goderich should not be the great grain emporium on this side of Lake Huron.
