Ins council his nomination was moved'
by Reeves Rlopp and Ingles, and, as
there' were'- no other nominations
County Cloak Holman declared him
elected, The Warden -elect was es-
corted to his seat by Ex-Whrdeii Er'
win and presented ,with the gavel as.
an . emblem of . his office. County
Clerk -l
1 ,- Holman administered the olith
of- office'in the absence:. of tile.county,
judge, ,-ancl' 'Warden Robertson then
made hie opening address.
He thanked the clerk for his 'Jkind
words and the council'fox his election.
Following, as he did,,a long line of
good; wardens -(and last year's war-
den was surely a popular one) I'M felt
he needed the sympathy of all the
council. He would do his ,best. It
was useless to urge economy; the
new members would he held in check
by the old ones;
Something he thought the council
should take more interest in was
education. Tho county was paying
565,000 a year to the schools but it
seemed that the estimates'for '•this
were ' passed withe less. thought than
wiruld be devoted to• a srnall 'fditeb.
The rates continued. to riseebut the
county took so Tittle interest that the
council did not even send a delegate
to the 'Educationnal': Convention in
Toronto. • •
-
• As everyone knows ' in ' Huron
County political consideration's 'in the
appointment' of.a'warden are, got rid
of by the selection in alternate years
of, a warden from each of the old
parties. 'Reeve Johnston of Ashfield
raised the question if this system of
considering • -a • man's politics could
not be got away from. ,The 'proper.
considerationswere the man's .'quali-
fications for the office irrespeetide of
his political stripe,. and, further, the
system put such,as be, who'elaimed:
to be independent in a peculiar Pod-
-tiara. ., Mr. Johnston's ideas found no
su,pnort, however.
The position of auditor of crimin-
al justice accounts is one which has
usually Bone to the runner, up' for
the position ,of.. warden, but rival mo-
tions were made tlriis 'year. one nom-
mating Mn Klan for the position
and the: other' 'r Mr. Hanley.' From
the •Illiberal table camt complaints
against the departure from the old
agreement by which the office would
go. to the . runner -rip :.for warden, to
Which Reeve Middleton` replied that
he thought after the appointment of
warden, all other > appointments
should be made by a dennocratic. vote,

Reeve McQuaid 'raised the, question
of the appointment :of •riu'al repro.

paid about fifty per cent. of the .up

the rural communities should be re-
pr5sented.;on the boards, The War-
dell gave the information that Col-
borne township had a re+;iresentative

would probably be adopted another

,out the rural representstitli've would

The electric wiring' in -the Court
House is out of date- and dangerous
according to a letter from the county
clerk which brought the matter to.
the attention of the council.* The
wires are too srnall(tor carry the load
put upon.then and..fuses frequently
blow out. Insulation is in some pla-
ces worn. off •. and . the installation
would not meet modern ideas of safe-
ty. Above- the. court room, where

which would .prove costly. The
beading was .insured for $26,000; and
would probably cost five or six times
that to rebuild. 'It would cost from
$500 to $1,000 for •rewiring. ;
This matter will be looked into by
a committee.

A resolution frons the County of

mn'oralising the Legislature to the ef-
fect that the sums contributed in the
county rate by towns in,which a Col-
legiate Institute is Ideated be paid
back to'.thean in addition to the coun-
ty grant. As the *county pays for
county pupil's out, of money raised in
part' by levy on the towns and the
towns pay for their owii pupils, it
was felt the towns.. wore .not treated
fairly.. By the change Goderich, for
instance; would . receive back $1,300.

out that in Ontario there were High
