MAY. 221 1903 The question of a Poor Hbuse will corene p at the June session of the Counties' Council end Most likelv a long debate will he the resuit. If the governmeaît intend pasing a nileasure making it compulsory on counties to *rect and maintain Poor tiouses as a matter of c'urse the County town willl be the place where such an institution wilI be rnaints4ined-Coboiirg Sentinel- Star. Surely our esteemed cortempor- ary will flot object to Bowmanville or Port Hope or even Newcastle or Orono kaving a House of Refuge We objeet to the term "Poor bouse" as it does not comnport with the dignitY of the 11unfortunate inmates' as advocates of the institution rofer to them. As Northumberland furnishes most'of the criminals for the gaol and inmates of the Ilouse of Refuge, surely this county might be favored w th -the location of the institution. MT. VERNON..
