Mr. Hardy, in moving the first reading, toad perhaps the Howe would permit him to make a few observations upon the bill. It was one that had been' before the }loose in many forms on other occasions. .There • • - • had been no new method Of electing. councib. tors since 1853 since which time the municipalities had grown, and the • ' ' legislation had proved too eunibersome. The Municipal Comeniesion of 1887 ..or 1888 had, dealt with the question in some of its phases. The functions of countycoun. caters were generally of a simple • nature, and weld maeffectually be dealt with by a ' . small body. as by n large body. There was nothing ;in the finance; that required a large body for its control. He thought theee matters might as well be dealt with by a body of 5, 7, 9, 10 or 12 men as with 40, 5q or 60. It was proposed that the County Clerk should at the next general elect ion in 't• ' 1893, irrespective of the voice or vote of the County Couacils, submit to the people of h • • It' thb b 11 t t e =amp, 1 les e question y a a., ",Are you in favor of the adoption of ee th CountyCouncils Act of 189°' "" people and if the majority of the p voted throughout the entire county in:fever of the Act, the law is to come into force. The second. part of the Bill provides for the number of councillors and the mode of their election. Count Councils shall be com- y posed as follows under the Bill : In counties containing not more than 40,000 • • persons, of seven members ; m counties con Wing more an , an Os an th 40 000 d 1 th 60,000 persons of nine members • counties 2 con Laing , or More persons, ofa ta 60 000 eleven members. Cities midtowns separated from the oounty shall not be included in .the county. The Bill also provided penalties for offenders in case of ballots being tam- .pered with. • Meredith—Doesth h tleman Mr. e on. gen ' retain the.same voting strengthas anderthe present law ? Mr. Hardy replied in the affirmative. Mr. Meredith ventured. to say that if this measure became law, very few, 11 any, of the counties throughout the province would avail themselves of its provisions. If it should ever pass, he was convinced that .it would become a dead letter. The hon. gentleman seemed to have a light opinion of the quality of the business transacted by County Councils. If he wanted to improve the work of the Councils, he might ace upon suggestions they had made long ago, which s o in was t • crease the powers of the Cowaty Councils by giving them something to do. He would venture to say that if the County Councils adopted he plan of sending out • circulaas to ascertain if a reduction of the members of this House would not be desir, able, there would be an unqualified assent given. The following bills were carried in corn- mittee: To consolidate the debt of the town of Oshawa • ' respecting the village of Niagara Falls ; to amend the Actrespecting the l'eblie Burying Ground in the City of Guelph •, respecting the Kingston Light, Heat and Power Company. following bills Were read a second time: Respecting the Dundee and Water- loo macadamized road' to incorporate the Hospital for Sick Children (Toronto.) Mr. Dack resumed the debate on the second reading of Mr. Balfour's bill to amend the Municipal Act. He spoke against the bill, holding that municipalities, councils, and the local press were no t in favor of depriving' the people from express -e ing their opinion by vote on bonusing by- laws. When a bonus was made it was with the intention of bettering the people grant- ing it. Mr. Meredith thought the Bill too drastic in its present form. He agreed generally with the member for Huron, but there might be exceptions where bonuses would be quite legitimate, such as railways, gas companies, etc. The spirit which thebonus system engendered—that of enticing away business from localities and inducing undue rivalry—should be suppressed. Then some provision ought to be made whereby ' those in favor of and opposed to a by-law shou id be enabled to lay their case before a judge • to obtain a decision on the validity of the law. There was pertaioily much need of reform and change. • The bill was then read a second time. The following bills were read a second • time: • • To repeal the bonus clauses of the Muni- °Tel Act—Mr. Wood (Brant). To aniend the law respecting assign menu, and prefere,nces y b insolvent persons—Mr. Smith (York).gross Mr. Meredith asked when he might ex- p ect the return about Upper Canada College - for? asked Mr Ross replied that it would be pre- •11 'f sented to the House in a couple o days. . Severed petitions were presented, praying for amendments to the Liquor License Act Municipal Act and Medical Act. ' The following bills were introduced and read a first time: Mr. Hardy—To consolidate and amend the mining laws. . Respecting the village of Niagara Falls.— Mr. Harcourt. Respecting the Kingston Light, Heat and Power Co.—Mr. Smith (Frontenac). The House went into commmittee on r. Gibson's bill respecting insurance corpora.. tions, Mr. Awrey in the chair.

Some our five miles up the river a deep break in the mountains to the north gave us a pretty vista of the Tahku glacier, lying like white wedge between the black sides of the precipitous gorge.

Gap," as through it sue a breeze could always be depended upon for a morning's sail up the stream—the very wind we were now using. About 9 we passed a single Tahku house on the south bank, that looked like a pig -pen struck by an avalanche. Dogs kept coming out from various aper- tures in its sides until no less than eight . stood on the high' bank and favored us with the usual canine chorus given strangers. 'After a while an Indian, that looked. as he had been squeezed, between two colliding avalanches, crawled out, and, standing, the centre of the scenic circle of dogs, pub his hands to his mouth and wailed, " Hoochinoo !" This hoehinoo is the native • • Indian liquor surreptitiously distilled from sugar and molasses, using a coal oil can for 'a retort, and a long kelp stook for a worm.

Even a railroad could be constructed the whole length of the river ; but as to this later We were abreaet of the first glacier . on the north side by9.30.
