The proposed County ofMait-
land has been the subject of a
good Ileal of discussion this week,
but the eorntimmn•tion of the pro-
ject, -if it is ever carried out, is a
long way in tate distance. Our
Listowel friends think they have
a good scheme, and so they have
as far es their town is concerned,
for itwould be the county town, of
course. We don't see what par-
ticular advantage it would be to
the i 1uuicipalities of Brussels,
Grey or Howick, and we think
there will be some difficulty in
getting the ratepayers to see eye
to eye with the projectors of the
scheme. The facts and figures
prepared and pedalled through the
county are very one sided and are.
short of the mark. They sound
well, however until, you look at, or
hear, the other side of the ques-
tion. If new counties aro to be
formed •wo'have a plan that has
been mooted before and would
work fully as well as the proposed
County of Maitland. It would be
composed of that section of coun-
try now included in East Huron,
for Dominion Hours purposes, viz.
the townships of IIowick, Turn -
berry, Grey and Morris, the
town of Wingham, and the villages
of Wroxeter, Brussels and Blyth.
This wonlit give us a population of
over 16,000 and would be a very
convenient County. While we
state this proposed plan we •are
opposed to cutting up old estab-
lished counties and forming now
ones for the purpose of pleasing
the fancy of any municipality.
"All is hot gold that glitters" and
the idea of putting up County
buildings and running a new coun-
ty on "wind" is not to bo relied
ou.
