rItOPOSED COUNTY OP OURON
13E111' LINE.
A committee of pa/alio-spirited °Jtizene
of Goderioh contemplate the formation
of a company to build a belt line of dee.
trio railway through theoounty of Huron,
with the town of Goderioh as the chief
centre of trafao.
The route suggested by the committee
is ae. follows Taking Goderioh as a
starting point, a radial line running
through Nile, Dungannon, Luoknow,
Wingham, Brussels, Seaforth, Egmond-
ville, Bruoefield, Varna and thence re-
turning via Bayfield to Goderioh, a total
distance of from eighty live to ninety
Miles. The total population of the vil-
lages tributary to sucha line would be
about 20,000, and the population of the
county itself about 80,000. The One
would give connection with the C. P. R.
at Wingbam, end the G. T. R. at the
pointe indicated on the map. By these
connections considerable business in
freight and express goods would be spar-
ed to outside points, with the carriage of
the mails along the route of tbe belt it-
self. The regular local freight and pas-
senger traffic to euah places as Bayfield,
Dungannon, Varna and other villages
not now on any line of railway, would be
an item in the traffic returns ; while the
light freight from Goderioh to the tribu-
tary towns in fruit, eggs, butter and pro-
duce in such a fertile district would be
large, basing calculations on what has
been done in the case of similar roads in
other parte of Canada. The organ fac-
tory, the bicycle factory and other indus-
tries of Goderioh will contribute their
quota. The Bummer excureion traffic in a
place like Goderioh is an important item.
On this subject one of the members of
the committee says
"County exoarsione to Goderioh during
the summer months would be very large
and of daily occurrence, and from all
points the Saturday passenger traffic to
Goderioh, to remain over to Monday,
would be specially heavy. We are pro-
viding for accommodation to a large ex-
tent over former years for Americana end
others frequenting our town as a summer
resort, as we contemplate would need to
run trains both ways oat of Goderioh at
least every hour during summer, and it
would require two passengerooaabee and
one freight at least upon every train to
carry tbe traffic
"Steamers on Lake Huron would feed
the road, especially in passenger traffic,
and hundreds of visitors would take daily
advantage of the 'round trip,' whiob
would pass through the finest agricultur-
al aoanty in Ontario. Goderioh being
the county town, there would be a steady
traffio to and from it the year over for
business purposes, and the connections
would easily be such with all pointe that
people Gould come, transact their business
and return home the same day, which
can now only be done from two or three
points. With regard to fruits, in a good
season we can easily ship baekes fruits
by the oar load, and now that the young
orchard area coming into fruit is larger
than in almost any other county, it is
reasonable to oaloulate upon largely in.
oreased trade. Besides all this, the fact
tbat Goderioh is a solid town and one of
the few growing rapidly, with an asser-
anae of yearly inoreaeed population and
accommodation for Summer visitors and
fast beooming an important manufactur-
ing point, prospects of increasing trade
are assured."
Considering these many advantages
and the fact that good water power cal
be had at five different pointe on the line,
the proposed Goderioh belt line should
yield a good return to street railway in-
vestors.—Canadian Engineer.
MUNICIPAL STATISTICS.
From the annual report of the Bureau
of Industries for the Provisos of Ontario•
for the year 1894, which has just been
leaned, we glean the following informa-
tion :—The total municipal assessment
in the Province of Ontario for the year
1893 was $825,580,052, being an increase
of $181,149,898 eines 1886. The manic'.
pal taxes imposed for all purposes in 1898
amounted to $12,522,600, being at the
rate of $5.56 per bead of the population,
whereas in 1886 it wag only $4.93 per
head. The bonded debt of the several
Municipalities in 1898 was 448 083,243 or
428.17 per head of the population, having
increased from $16.87 per head since
1886. The several u-nnik/panties paid in
1808 42,603,691 in interest, this iters hav-
ing increased nearly three-quarters of a
million since 1886. The population of
the Province has increased from 1,828,•
495 in 1880 to 4,910,050 in 1898. The
increase, however, has been entirely in
the towns and cftles, as the township•
population has decreased in that time
from 1,1.48,058 to 1,090,981. Coming
down 10 our own country we find that in
1893 the rural munici lities
of 9 13uron
C�
paid in taxes for
all
purposes the
sum of
$100,91.8, while the town and village ma•
nioipalities paid $79,788. Tho amount of

From a letter received by P. S. Link -
later from J. 3. Anderson, of Melita,
Manitoba, we learn that Mr. Anderson
has had an immense Drop of wheat this
year, but most of it has been damaged by
frost. Re says that ;n his district there
is no number one hard wheat this year
He has 8,000 bushels of number two in
the elevator, and 20,000 bushels that will
have to be sold for number. two frozen,
and will bring 28 Dents per bushel. Be-
sides this, he has the wheat off 100 aoree
uatbreehed, in stooks. It is badly frozen
but will do for seed another year. Mr.
Anderson las 170 aures of oats in etaolia,
after threshing 800 bushels. The thresh-
ing has been a long job this year, the
metalline being at Mr. Anderson's nearly
four weeks. Ther are 12-r1, n
Them e and 8
horses with the machine and it took
seven teams to draw in the grain from
the fields and live to draw the wheat to
the granary. Had the frost kept off Mr.
Anderson thinks he would have had 85,-
000 bushels of number one hard wheat.

Fmk.—Wednesday afternoon, 23rd
ult., the plaining mill owned by S. S.
Cooper was a hive of industry, turning
out work to complete bailding contracts
still unfinished ; the same night at 11
o'olook, it was a heap of ammo/daring
rains, every piece of maohinery in it—
and it was well stocked—completely
ruined. The fire was discovered at 10:30
o'clock ; the very nature of the building.
and its contents were euah that it was
impossible to obeok the flames ; west of
the building considerable lumber was
piled, but the wind was blowing . fiercely
to the east, and thus the lumber escaped.
On the east side, a short distance away,
is Geo.'Emereon'o house, and it was
only by prompt and hard work
that it was saved after being on
fire s couple of times. Mr. Ste-
vens' house to tbe south also had a nar-
row escape. S. S. Cooper was oat of
town at the time of the fire and only got
bank Thursday. The workmen lose all
tbeir tools, as nothing whatever was say..
ed• Quite a lot of finiehed material ready
to go out was also destroyed. Alex.
Cooper went into the factory at nine
o'olook, using no light, and et this time
everything was all right. A man who
passed at 10 o'clock saw no signof the
fire, so that its origin is unknown. The
property was valued at 46,000, and wall
only insured for $2,000, one policy for
$1,000 expiring the let of Nov. With bis
obaraateriotia posh Mr. Cooper goes at
once to Crediton to secure brink, of which
the new factory will be built, to be mom
plated before Christmas—anti. in running
order. This is the kind of enterprise and
spirit the public like to see displayed en-
der the circumstances.
