drainage of the southern portions'
the town, I have given wurh furth

ration as to rest la n
only for the present nerds hut also tl

culty presents itself in the fact of t
small outlet for all the sewerage at

Proposition No 2.-A trunk sewer
on the line of Bennet or McMaho
streets, with brunches. als,ut th
same length, but which would have th
disadvantage of being taken throng
ground havinga higher grade an
necessitating deeper excavations.
There is no questioning the lac
that the old wooden drains whin
formerly served to dralit this swamp
district have become so deca y ed that th
majority are usels,e and must be
llaced in the immediate future with
arge 24 or 30 -inch pipe trunk to a moi
form grade, with ln'atich.•s of slightly
sharper grade, numerous catch -basin
and manholes for access and clean
ing. It is desirable to have a
amount •f surface water fowie
through the sewers which convey-th
sewage, the itm.eunt- of which-ia
nor will be in many years. enough 01
any streets to keep the drains in con
dition. A good heavy rainfall is th
best flushing the sewers can get dor
ing eight months of the year and 1 an
of the opinion that it iv a mistake t
try to separate the surface from sew
age water.
The. natural tall of the lantLia_toe
ward the line indicated in my first
proposal, and i should prefer to leave
in the existing'outlet, laying another
and larger by its side or near it, and
widening out the manholes so that the
Iwo Mains would have comtn. n
receptacles f o r clearing and alio
verve to relieve each other should
occasion require it, interchangeably.
writ is probable that the gradient will
not be the same in both. The scheme
is of course immature• but seems the
only solution of the problem, which is
becoming more pressing each year,
1 bite's, in conjunct ion with the above
inve.tigation,taken into account the
mage off 'Mr. Duff's lot. By re-
laying tile in is large portion' of the
wooden drain across Elizabeth, Jones

lot of water could he taken off, but
the depression of the Duff lot is so
much that a drain could only have n

A FEW FACTS RE LOCAL OPTION IN OWEN SOUND.
I)GAIt SINS :-

Option, lift. • The next morning after the %otitis I had stet -seism to Ise down
town about 4 o'clock in the morning and I sawseveral hunches of drunks ou
the street* as I went from the Coulees house t" the Seldon House, that is two
blocks in length on the main street. '!'hilt was Ie•fore,•tlte license system

GENERAL BUSINESS PROSPERITY. •

)4te-4itses tit -so -men--claim -that--their-lntsinresrs have increased materiatty
and alio state that there is addle rush paid. now and lest, credit asked fur.
The (antis claim one reason why Local Option. is doing Owen Sound hat to is
that it is driving fanners to other towns. which is not true. To show you
that the farmer.: are .tit going to other tow us : Mcl)u,tg,il as Lemon'* whol.•-
sale buu.•ss has doubled since Lural Option ratite pits. fore and they diel
.entirely with the, farmers; that is, buying butter, eggs. turkeys and all kinds of
farwere produce. 1 was tlking to a man on the market smite time ago wl.o'
canoe front -within tiro Mile,. of Meafuu.t. I asked. him why he came tu.Owe n
Sound and he said he could get four .ells 11 pound More for his fuwi here than.
there. 1 was arse talking to a man who trams from four miles the other side
of Wiartutt: that is twenty-four mile* front here. acid be *aid he made eh,
newt. here then he could get in 1Wia, ton for his load of fowls. That looks as
if the people here to ere buying turkeys and chickens instead of whiskey, as'
the piers are much better here than in the surrounding town,.
' Tie Antis made is great cry about how had ureal Option would be for Owen
Sound before it ram, into force. slating that there would be nothing lint
"blind pig" outside the hotels. 1 will give you orstntemnent here of the is 11
viclions to show where the "blind pigs" are. During the eleven months cis:-

They way nothing about the mmney_that uaa >pent over the list• 1418 'it 1-41,t'

would amount to shout $'fti,Ieat. flee a w•a* a lean entad, a statenient to Ute

SOMI: COMYARTSONS.
I:rtho What does the liePnse.l saloon do? It prevents anyone and •r•
twenty-one from going 11110 11 hotel with -a lieensed saloon in it unless he is it
resident on the premises, or a bona lade boarder or lodger, or accompanied I y
his or her patents or guardian. The landlord is liable to A flne of not less thea
$2 and not more than $lit, if allowing this without the above provision:
Under Local Option no person is prohibited from going to a hotel. N'bv
Reenlist. liquor is not allowed set the premiss. why should liquor be sold in
+ totes k -For -n ' other rwaron-tlw+c t.. allow ties -el nest -k.-epee to make a narrt•f
of money, and that is why they say Local Option is a had thing. There is no
law prohibiting anyone under twenty:one Ironi going into a hank, adrvgoods
store. butcher shop or grocery ,.to or any other business that 18 a producer.
The only thing that the saloon serves for rt* x producer is drunkards, beggars,
paupertsmrjttyeya and law -breakers of all kinds, whiob had -been -spade -very
clear by the courts of Owen Sound. It is an easy matter to understand why
the liquor peole air fighting Local Option, as 1 know of a hotel that the good-
will of was sold for $511,155). 1 don't know of another business in the country
that the geodss ill of could be sold for any such money.
REAL ESTATE ADVANCING.
d)thl I hove been in the real estate business for live years and property
in Owen Sound has increased over thirty per cent. in that time. i will here
Bice you ani instate*: 1 send a lot tine years ago for $15 per foot. it wee sed

Mention- necessary. 1 have wild more property this fall than ie the four
other falls that I have been in the Waimea. and everybody know* theis is
S
stringency this vent. in the money market than ever before and Oweu
uund has not felt it. 1 am sntisfied the reason is that the open bar is not
t ,noting. Owen Simone has increased about 1,300 in population the last fly.
'years beginning with 11813 and has built about -11)1) houses and over as hundred
of Them at., being built this year. The Owen Sound Advertiser of November
Lith states that the total building op. rations for this year amount to $35)),1111,
and the editor o1 this paper was opposed to Local Option when it^came in. but
bap tory little rep say against it now..
LOCAL•OPTION A GENERAL SUCCESS.
17th, • I will give you a statement from a gentleman who called ..n fin ty-
nine of Wit• business mien and seven of our industries as to their opinions, and
their replies were as follows* Eight said their business had dreteased, ten
said they coned see no difference; thitty-one said their hueineem was much bet-
ter and that they were rrr•etvIng-lmntereash than ever before, .is there were
men paying old debts that they never expected. I will quote you what some
of the' industries said. One said, ••1 son satisfied Lneal Option has done a great
deal of good. 1 have only seen one man the worse of liquor since the Hitt of
May " Another plaid: "Local Option has been n decided benefit to the town
rind the workitigtn.•n as a whole. i have no doubt if it Laid to he voted on
again _iLwould_earr;_with an increased - tee j1eri'y'-' Anther write., Thr
effect has been very marked in connection with our workmen, as we have nn
trouble with our men being elf Mina' Local Option came into lone." Only
one emplayer said he could see no diferenre. N -hen allied if there was any-
thing to Ie said on the other side he replied, "Al .t nothing," 'There was a
traveller selling stationery who called on several of our lawyer here in town.
Otte of the lawyers Kalil he did not think Local Op►ion was a good thing and
the traveller asked him, "what is your argument against it ' The Lawyer
said that there was no argument.

To Appeal Sangster Case.

town stated that, though judgment
had been given agsin.t the town, the
trial ,edge was evidently net entirely
convinced that his position wan cor-
rect, it. he had suggested that it was.
aerie in which the opinion of an ap-
pellate cmuit should to ,ecu,rd. "The
