Every one knows, that there was a public demand fcr a reduction in the size of the county - councils, and that the legislature, in passing the measure, but responded to it. And though the law is capa- ble of amendment, ana will no doubt be amended as the public welfare demands, surely it can not be seriously contended that the county councils of to -day, cost the taxpayers of to -day a'i much as un- der the old system. It is a libel on the sixteen representative men of Middlesex, now in session, and effici- ently performing the duties formerly accomplished by 18 county council- lors, to say that they are more Costly than the large body of men who pre- ceded them.
