ONE HOUR SHORTER, •
The meeting of the West Huron
license commissioners held in Clinton
on Thursday last was rather seusa-
tional. A strong delegation of Tem-
perance workers made several neves.;
asking for shorter hours, stricter
regulations, etc: They also emphati-
cally registered an dbjectioe to grant-
ing a, license to Mr, Peter' Lewis of
the Nortnandie hotel, not oh the gro-
unds that -Peter has misbehaved hini-
self since, totting to Clinton, but
because of his alleged bad past rec-
ord. Several prominent citizens., am-
ong them Mayor Hoover and Council-
lor Ford, took en the cudgels on
Peter's behalf and Supported his ap-
plication because of their belief that
he is running an hotel that in a end.
it to the town and has been good
citizen since taking up his residence
here. There was so much discussion
oVer this one hotel that an adjourn-
:n(1.01A Was made before mach business
was transacted.
Oti Saturday the board met 111 Dun-
gannon and granted licenses to all the
applicants except John Perkins Of the
Queens, Clinton, and N. O. Boggs,
Carlo*. They also shortened the day
by Meting that 111 towns the hotels
mUst close their horn at tell O'c'ock
p. m. told in the rural districts and
villageS at nine &Clock. This cuts off
a profitable hour for the. litense hold-
ers, but it is a concession to the Tem-
perahee people that they never ob-
tained before in this riding. The
board is composed of : Thoa, Church-
ill, chairman, Thos. Dunne and M.
Loekhart, with Alf. Asquith as in-
spector.

that we. were giving the town ample

other things • that this included the
fire insuranceon our Ibuildings, but
as this is set forth in the agreenient
made with the town, and published
in the last three•iasueseof your Paper
W0 thought it would ''be untleretooe
by everybody. Softie one 'has started
the rumor that neither Mr. Owen or
Mr. Jerikins, are members of gm pro-
posed company, 1 wish to give this
a fiat 'denial, there is absolutely no
truth in this rumor. The reason the
agreement with the town is • only
• signed by H. T. Itanee, W. P. Spaul-
ding and H. 13. Combo is this: • Mr.
Oweu aud Ur. Jenkins are not resi-
dents and ithe three first nien aerie('
menfbers of the proposed Company
were on the spot when the agreement
Was ,enectited, and lianci full authority
