He hd learned with pleasure and satisâ€" faction that the council had canceled the order, and he felt that he ought to congratulate the members of that body upon their action. "‘It was a most regrettable thing that prisoners on remand Oor serving sentence should be forbidden to read books,‘ he said. ‘It meant really that the prisoners were condemned to solitary _ confinement.

That is no great article. At this season of the year the great bulk of freight is moved. The manure cars are done for this season. The loading of apple cars is also over, and should there be an odd car:â€" of freight come along at any time, that can be easily arâ€" ranged for, as it can be shunted down between the postoffice and store, and do no harm to anyone, as the road would be on ene side and a vacant lot on the other. ~Some two or more cars have often been left there, and I am sure no objection would be raised, es. pecially as it would be for our own benefit, so the company need have no fear on that ground. Now, to sum up the matter, I would say the cost of running the six cars down to the postâ€" office daily would be very little, as the cars would run down the grade themselves, and one car could bring up all the passengers for east and west, and if there were no passengers to go down, on the other then one car would do. Then as to the matter of having to change the time table from here to Hamilton, as represented to me, this would not be necessary, & en i oo onimato in sA iha‘ eighteen cars we had six run down L% spur to the store, three in the fores noon and three in the atternob'm#’, great cost would there be in so d m‘? No time table would have to begghm-_ ed, for the cars now run on schedule time; just the same way as in the summer, so there would be no diffiâ€" culty or cost there. Then as to the running down of one car, there could be but very little expense, for the car would ‘run down by its own momenâ€" tum, and said car could bring up all : passengers for both ways, and if there were none on the incoming catr to go down, then there would be only one trip in coming up from the store to the main line. The cost would be so small that it would not be worth mentioning compared with the amount of good it would accomplish on a cold, snowy day in relieving our mothers, sisters, wives, sweethearts or children from a cold, disagreeable walk, and perhaps a long wait at the shally or | shelter.
