The Seaforth Expositor, commenting upon the Bill says: "The present Act is allright, with but one exception - the double vote." The present Act is all wrong, and 6 out of every 10 Liber- als will admit so. The County COM]. en divisions are made up ot from three to four municipalities, represented by two Commissioners, who for the most part know nothing of tbe wants of the municipality, as compared with the local councillor who sits and dis- cusses municipal matters every three or four weeks, and besides some of the municipalities, those without a mem- ber living within their borders, are not represented as they haye a right to be.

Clause 8 was amended to admit of fruit marked "first" or "best" or "extra good" quality. This was to suit the Nova Scotia growers, who, It was elaimed, have no well-defined brands of their own.
