thought that the coinrnission was all

gested:that the, Warder*, and Engineer

Reeve Wm. 5., Spotton of Howick,
rose to assert, that he believed it was
time, that the local reeves were given
some power over the patrolmen. "We
should ba.ve the power to start • and

said that he had no sympathy with the

good a commission as. the county had
had. Lessen the expense and make a,
better job of things, he suggested, and
let the reeves give,advice because they
know what they are ;talking about.
"The isirtlier you get away froth lo-
cal conditions andlocal control; the
worse off you get," said Reeve F. j,
McQuaid, of AlcKillop, "The patrol-
men .nor the commission do not have
to face the public and it is siMerfluous
for a commission to be driving up and
down'the couotrY,"declared Mr. Mc-
Quaid, and ;further indicated that he
would be agreeable to act with the
Cornmission in McKillop and give his
service free of charge.

pointed ode that, every year the Good

tee, Why? Is the expenditure there
four times as great as for Good Roaxiti
op four times es important?"
Reeve AMos TiPling of Winghann
contributed to the discussion in advo-
cating that the best men be obtained
for the Commission and hetet there
more permanently even if it was nee,
esaary to go outside the council, "We
want service for our money," declared

where or what roads should be built

In closing the subject, Mr. Neeb
declared himself to be in favour of dis-
cussien above -board in open council,
rather than ,in lobbies. He re -affirmed
his two -fold object of having the ex-
pense cut down and having the reeves

than in the past. Mr.. Neeb declared
it to be the duty of every represertta-
