It is altogether a eorntnenclable institution, it is doing a good work for, the' community at large, and the people of thits county are greatly in- debted to Dr. Gunn for his enter- prise and liberality in placing with- in cheap and easy reach of so many people so great a boon. We believe the money of the county can 'not be more worthily expended than in rendering reasonable aid to these in- stitutions, provided the grants are safe -guarded by proper conditions and restrictions, and there is no good rea- son why the Clinton Hospital should not be treated, in like manner with the other similar institutions in the county. The New Era eays ; "We do not wish to severely _•criticize. the County Council for contributing one thousand dollars to the Goderich 'hospital, and five 'hundred dollars to the iWingham hospital,_ but we do •think 'that in all fairness they tshould at the Same time recognize the splehe did iservices 'that the Clinton hospi- ital las` 'rendered to the county, ag welt as( to more distant places. It may be argued that the Clinton hospi- tal is a private one, owned, and for •the most pert controlled:13y Dr. Gunn. We can youc'h for the 4ac6 that .not a few charity cases are treated in the Clinton 'hospital every year. Besides there t a proVision for charity ewaes at the House of Rbfuge, and we announced before that the Clinton doctors Were willing to give their services gratis to all such bases. For - several years the Clinton ehespital 'has tiadl under its care, upwards of 200 eases annually, and eh is Weil known, a large proportion of these Include surgical operations of the greatest magnitude and difficulty. In fact there are few families in the tounty that are not indebted to the Clinton' !hospital for the life or c'omfoet of some of their friends, and if the public 'had a ,choice in 'the mat- ter, we know Where the assistance would go to. Dr. Smith, the Inspec- tor of Hospitals, etc., when on a visit to this place lately, 'remarked that the splendid work done in the past he the Clinton hospital should' net be ignored." • Morris Notes.—Edward Brya,ns is- home froth the' west.—It is rumored that Neil Taylor, of the 7th line, will run for councillor.—Frank Bell, a forrner well known Morrisite, has been seriously ill with typhoid fev- er.
