EDITORIAL -
HURON ,,QR LAMBTON?
, The Signal -Star had net intended
to say- anything editorially on the
subject of the vote to be. Wren. at
Grand Bend on May 1..pth to deter-
mine whether thenerw village Shall
be. incorpo-rated in the County, of
Iguron„ or in the Oeunty. of•Larabton,
iturt-7-Une, editorial referenee to the
matt& in , The Stratford , Beetcsen-
Herald .on Monday se'eni4 to call
for .some .cOMment. • .
The Stratford paper admietedly
takes- the informetion, for its editor -
dal reference from a Source in Lamb -
ton county, and it seems to accept
the Lambeon side .of the' argument
that is preceding the vote. For
instaece,,, with *regard to the quee,
tion of liquor sale, on which ent-
phasis is placed, by- some of . the
Grand Bend people, iCsays:
"Obvie;nely, if the whole village
cennes peer to Lanabton, as the re-
sult of the vote, the C.T„A. would
cease to 'exilet, as far. as the little
naunicipality .is concerned."
Nothing of the sort is- 'obvious."
