To the Editor of the Exeter Times.
Stn,—Would you kindly give space to
the following : In your issue of last week,
Mr E Roberts, sexy. Board of '','rade, in.
structed by the Board, writes n letter oritt-
eising the village council, in part, for not
entertaining certain petitions, asking the
council to submit a by.law toestablislo a
cash butter and egg market,
Mr Roberta is correct in stating ,that et
the public organizatiqu meeting of May 3rd,.
matters of weight touching the welfare of
the village were suggested, tatter freight
rates, better grain market, high school,
iudncomeut to manufactories, etc. The
butter and egg question was neither men-
tioned nor yet furshadowed.' Sir, J: assert
the council acted discreetly in declining to
submit that by -lav, -a by-law which, if
carried, would imply, first the expense of
eubmitting it, second, :would obligate the
council to provide indefinite premises, at
what cost and, where located not specified.
Third, the council, would bo rendered
virtually responsible for carrying on "the
cash for butter and egg business." Further,
such action would feud to discourage and
injure, not encourage the person now en-
gaged in that business. Merchants in
surrounding villagee would view such action
eminating from the village council, as
aggressive ; they wuuld retaliate by paying
wash also,—they having capital and doing
business at low expense; could compete only
too successfully. I reassert the oonneil
acted with discretion' in this matter; to have
entertained that petition and to have
assumed all its implied responsibilities,
provided the by-law carried, would have
been unprecedented, absurd and illegal.
Such a course would merit enol would re-
ceive in clue time a blunt rebuke, evert
from many of those who signed the petition.
The Board of Trade suggests double
dealing and inconsistency on the part of
certain members of the council. I do not
wish to retail and would merely offer in
rei.uru a respectful, dissent from their
finding,
The Board complains of being deadlocked
and ask as to whether it is to become a
nonentity. f believe the surest safeguard
against these 'evils hes in _ advocating
measures calculated •to advance the
material interests of the village at large,
witbout discrimination. Such a course
would justly receive and would command.

Aug.' 6.—The stone work on the new
Government building has been completed
and the other work in connection is being
rapidly pushed forward. To -day another
impetus was given to the prosperity of the.
town by the passing of the by-law in favor
of a bonus of 35,000 to the Goderich Organ
and Furniture Factory, Almost every
available vote was polled, the result being
502 in favor of the by-law and only one

chap 174, of the .Revised Statutes of
Ontario, 'empowers municipal councils'
to pass by -caws • fcr preventing the
growth of Caeadlaa thistles and other
weeds detrimental to husbandry, and
oangpelling the destruction thereof; and
also for the appointmentof an inspector
with power to enforce the provisions of s
such by-law, Nearly every nunicipalit

they are never put into effect, At the
present time the public highways, which,
certainly should be attended to under
the provisions of the Ontario law, are
full of all kinds of noxious weeds, In
turn the adjoining farms become infest-
ed, and thus they spread. If a muni-
cipal representative be asked why the
provisions of the law are not carried out,
the answer is that to Carry out the pro-
visions of the law or by-law wpuld create
ill -feeling auto endanger their chances
for re-election: ' But these officials are
making bad friends anyway, for the
intelligent part of the community who
see the necessity of destroying these
weed pests are getting in the majority,
and intend to enforce these by-laws at
any expense. This weed question is be
corning ,of gigahtic dimensions, as several.
fields in this neig`lborhood will testify.
A farmer who allows Canada thistles,
say, to grow on his own not only in-
juries himself, billthewholn community
and the codutry alarge. This Canada
thistle growth is not confined to Canada
but extends to nearly every part of the
American union, and it lias been a men-
ace to successful agriculture for the last
50 years, and every year the injury is
more formidable.`
An Important Decision.
At Osgoode Hall on Monday, Judge
McMahon decided on an important ease
under the Manhood Suffrage Act, affect-
ing persona who desire to have their
names placed on the roll, and the con-
ditinns under which tuey can claim the
adjudication of the Revision Court with-,
out reference to -the county judge.: The
plaintiff was Mr G F Martner, :NI P P.
for Maskoka, and the respondents—the,
Revision Court of Graveuhurst. The
action arose out of twenty-six residents
applying to have their names put on the
list of persons entitledto vote at the
Legislative Assembly elections. The
names were presented by,Mr Ma•ner to the
Court of Revision, who, for reasons of
their own refused to entertain the appli-
cations, saying that they could be made
to the county Judge. Under the statute
there is an alternative of applying to the
county judge, that is, one can make an
application to be put on the Het as a
manhood suffrage voter in the Court of
Revision or to the county judge by way
of appeal --after
h
t o Court of Revision
have refused the a
pplicatio❑
Iu this ,naso
the Court of Revision. refused to enter-
tain the appeals, and the plaintiff brought
the matter before the court in the shape
of an application for a mandamus to com-
pel the Conrt to 'sit and adjudicate upon
them. Judge lllcilahon granted the ap-
plication and ordered the :Court in ques-
tion to hear and determine the appeals
brought before them by these particular
applicants, and gave Mr Alarner the costs
of itis application against the Court of
Revision, One of the points regarded as
important by the judge was the fact tbst
the applicants would nbb beable to appear
in any case before the county judge as
their business would take them; away to
the lumber camps at the time.
BRITIStI GRAI:1 Tndnx.
London, August 5.—The Mark Lane Ex.
press in its review of the British grain
trade during the past week, says:-
English
wheats are generally 6c1 lower, though on
many exchanges concessions' are refuted.
The August average price for the entire
kingdom opens at 30s. Iu London the
price is 30s 11d. The sales of the foreigu
wheats have been small and prices aro six-
pence cheaper. Adverse reports about
foreigu crops have impressed some holders,
but there are a few who concede a reduc-
tion for spring. Corn is quiet, Oats are
sixpence lower. Fallplicee are asked for
barley, corn, beans and peas.

while secondary classes were, .if anything,
cheaper. Irish grass-fed cattle are coming

cattle, one ship being overdue. Theso mot
