the bible society when called on soon dogs return to kill at gravel hill after slaughtering several sheep on the farm of arthur hobson at gravel hill ten days ago the muttoneating dogs returned to the locality a few days later and killed rive animals on a neighboring farm for mr wm hewlitt mr hobson reports that another of ins flock has died ince he reported the first attack hewlitts sheep were torn in a shocking manner and the torture by the dog is blood curdling aside from the financial loss dogs do a cruel act in the manner they torment sheep it would appear that they get firm hold of the sheeps woo and if they are big dogs they tear them in shreads the sheep aid in this destruction by doing all in theft power to tear away from the dog or dogs thus the cruelty imposed on the innocent animals is shocking to say the least mr hobson is still of the firm opinion that if police would cover the nearby territory the guilty dogs would be located on examin ation of their mouths which would show wool in their teeth indivi dual farmers who suspect their dogs should make this examina tion in this killing the dogs came from east of gravel hill mr hob son stated three battle for reeveship in

the remaining twothirds done with eur own equipment and men i intended to run for deputy- reeve last year but stepped aside for mr rumney i expect he will move on this time as i did for him said mr timbers at the close of his address which very well covered his stand on township issues councillors fred wicks and harry barber covered various matters each maintaining the acquisition of extra machinery was the right course to follow former reeve charlie hooper claimed the new planning board was only a senate beyond the reach of the electors great author ity but being a purely appointed body they are beyond the reach of the electors i say the 5man coun cil could run our township we have a good building by law aside from the planning board he declared we heard criticism about the weeds on private property yet no one can build on less than nearly a quarter acre he said referring to assessments mr hooper said the first thing we know we will have a riot if they carry this thing too far he was in favor of a card system to the extent of measuring buildings and some other regulations he criticized council for paying si 700 for a tractor when they had a tender as low as s1000 the reeve said the tax rate increased two mills should have gone on two years ago he was on the council then but i didnt hear the suggestion then mr griffin opposed two road superintendents as a councillor but as reeve he increases their salaries he claimed robt rae said he was of the opinion that the increased assess ment this year should have been sufficient to look after increased costs i think it is time a thrifty scotchman was on the council to keep a hand on the purse strings he stated in closing his brief address albert reesor a former deputy tyled himself as a middle man when reviewing the expenditures of the council agreeing here and disagreeing there with the remarks of reeve griffin and mr hooper everett harper declared himself opposed to the planning board we dont need one and i doubt very much if the farmers want a build ing bylaw when reeve griffin talked at some length in reply to his critics the big crowd began to move out of the hall in considerable num bers the hour was getting late and those who remained after the shuffle listened to the candidates argue with one another clerk chas hoover as chairman spoke at some length at the outset of the meeting outlining the fin ancial statement mr w c conn thought the township might le buying too much equipment attempted murder charge laid after uxbridge shooting earl hopkins 27 was charged with the attempted murder of his brother as a result of the farm house shooting on friday mid night in uxbridge township which jwlice state began in an argument over a woman hopkins is being held in custody at the county jail in whitby martin hopkins 32 earls brother is in toronto general hos pital riddled with shotgun pellets from his chest to his knees hos pital officials who earlier described his condition as grave said his condition is now improved provincial police said the brothers attended an impromptu party with five other persons at the farm home of george matthews in uxbridge township near the intersection of the brock road and the uxbridgegoodwood highway at the foot of bootjack hill 2v6 miles east of goodwood guests at the party told ipolice earl was the only man who did not have a woman companion an argument started over one of the women and earl is said to have taken exception to statements made about her another theory is that the brothers were not the best of friends because of a difference be tween them over the settlement of the fathers estate in any event it was established they quarrelled and earl went out of the house he walked due east to the home of his mother only five minutes from the matthews cottage he returned with a 10guage shotgun and went up on the verandah of the matt hews home he fired the gun through the window at his brother who was seated on a couch with one of the women about five feet from the window police said earls mother told police he had come home and seized his shotgun she had tried to prevent him from leaving the house
