THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO townships to _ appoint road commisâ€" sioners under the Colonization Act which would be a great aid to the (Government road men in determining what roads to build; that the practice of people taking homestead lots and holding them as a speculation was inâ€" terfering very seriously with the deâ€" velopment of the agricultural sections and made it more difficult to earry on a proper road program, and that In accordance with the instructions from the annual meeting the Commitâ€" tee took up first the road situation from Cochrane to Hearst where the need of roads is greater than in the other parts of© Temiskaming and Cochrane â€" District. The â€" Chairman had provided maps showing the roads between Cochrane and Hearst and each of the delegates had township maps showing the lots occupied by settlers and the roads needed to enâ€" able them to get their produce to the railway. These roads were discussed very fully and resolutions passed which will be put before the Governâ€" ment in the near future. Put Case to Government In the general way the Commitâ€" tee‘s decision was that too many townships were open for settlement with the result that there was not sufficient settlemént in any township to warrant a large expenditure on roads; that the Government should make it compulsory for unorganized B. L. Cope, the Viceâ€"President of the Association, who was named Convenor of this Committee at the annual meeting oceupied the chair, and those present included Donald MeFachren, â€" Cobalt; John â€" MeFarâ€" lane, New Liskeard; Dayton Ostrosâ€" ser, Timmins; Rev. Merritt Price, Iroquois Falls; A. T. H. ‘Taylor, Cochrane; Father Lambert, Hearst; Mr. Labonte, Mattice; Aleec Dewar, President of the Associated Boards and repnesentatives from Moombeam, and other settlers along the C.N.R. who have not yet organized Boards of Trade but are deeply interested in roads. Harry Duff, District Enâ€" gineer for the Northern Development Branch with headquarters at Cochâ€" rane and Thos. Ripley of the Northâ€" ern Development Branch from Hearst also attended the meeting. IMPORTANT ROAD MEETING MAY HAVE GOOD RESULTS (From The Broke Hustler) The special Road Committee of the Temiskaming and Northern Ontario Associated Boards of Trade met in Cochrane Thursday and had an exâ€" tremely satisfactory meeting. The meeting was a distinct adâ€" vance of previous efforts especially owing to the presence of the Governâ€" ment representatives. The delegates saw conclusively that too many roads were being asked for at too great cost and one outcome of the meeting, it is expected, will be the more modâ€" erate demand for roads and a more careful selection of those that aro really necessany. The attitude of the meeting was decidedly in favor of working with the Resident Engineer and his staff and dealing direct with The presence of the Government representatives was a distinct aid to the Comumittee in its work. For sevâ€" eral townships~ requests for roads were laid before the Committee which totalled would mean an enormous exâ€" penditure which it would be unfair to expect the Government to make. As an example one township asked for a road which would accommodate only a few settlers, which when figâ€" ured up by the Government officials showed a cost of $132,000. Tt was the decision of the Committee that the general principles on which roads should be built should be taken up with the Government but that the deâ€" tail in the different townships should be laid before the District Engineer for his decision. the Government enforee a stricter inâ€" spection of homestead lots to prevent the common practice of holding lots without doing the necessary work; that the Government should compel well settled townships to organize so that the roads in these townships could be properly maintained.
