The case was the outcome of the by-law (recently passed by the township of Blanshard, ;ranting $20,000 to the St. Marys and Western Ontario Railway Company. Dale claimed several irregularities in the voting. The first time the by-law was submitted it was defeated, but the second time it carried. It is un- derstood It will be again submitted to the ratepayers nr.d is expected to carry by a substantial majority. Following is judge's decision. Mo- tion to -mash bylaw of the township authorizing the issue of debentures to amount of twenty thousand do'. lars, for purpose of granting aid to St. Mary's and \Vestern Railway Co. The bylaw was toted upon on May 21. 1909, and was carried by n sub. stanti:II majority of the rate payers to whom it was aubtnitted. 'l'hc ob- jection chiefly relied on by the ap- plicant was that the voting was not upon the list of voters based upon 'the last revised assessment roll. as reluir- ed by section 318 of the Consolidated Municipal Act, 1903; and In support of the objection relied upon these un- disputed facts, viz., was duly return- ed to the township clerk on April 30„ that the court of revision sat on May 18, and the voting took place on May 21. The IA5.4eSsmellt Act pro- vides (sec. 6) that first silting of eaurt of revision shall not be held un- til after expiration of at heist ten days from expiration of time within which notices of appeals may be given to the clerk (here May 14). The court could not. therefore. have le;ally held its first sitting b:•fore May 24, tt hich was three days after the torin;. 1 think the objection must be Fnslained that it is funda- mental and is not within the curative section 204.

The mails have been carried on this route for • a great many years by Mr. Ballantyne, of Elimvillc. but his contract expired some months ago and since then he has been doing the work at so much per week. New tenders were received some tirne ago, but they were all so high the department did not feel justified in accepting any of them. They have now decided to divide the route and make one division from Exeter to Kirkton and the other from St. Marys to Kirkton, and are adver- tising for tenders accordingly. For this end of the route they are asking for double tenders, viz : One con- tract being to leave Exeter after the arrival of tho forenoon train going north and to be back morn Kirkton Centralia Mr. and Mrs. S.
