Sylvester Martin visited friende for troubling you in this matter Following is a copy of a letter sent to Grey County Couucil at its last ses- sion it will explain itself, and also commend itself to the good judgement of our readers. Hano\'eb, June 23, 1890. Gentlemen, â€" The policy of granting sub- sidies to Local Railways was inaugur- ated several years ago by the Doruin- ion Government and bas been carried ou ever since. Laige sums are yearly granted for this purpose. Last session about three and a half millions were given to aid railways throughout the Dominion, without discussing the wis- dom of this policy I wish to call the attention of your Honorable Body to tbe position of tbe county of Grey in reference to tbis question, you are all aware of the debt incurred by your country in securing railway facilities. You are also all well aware that you have not been aided with any assis- tance from the Dominion Treasury. Such being tbe case does it not appear quite proper, that when yon build your own railways and are called upon to pay a share to subsidize other rail- ways in the Dominion that you should in justice and fairplay look for a refund of a portion at least of tbe bonuses you have granted to tbe different rail- ways in your country? It bas always appeared so to me and since this policy of subsidizing local railways bas been continued by tbe Dominion Government itcomes with even greater force. Had this policy been of only temporary duration tbe claims of Grey and a few otter counties might have been passed over but now that it appears to be a fixed institution justice demands that we should claim what we are fairly entitled to. At tbe last session of the House of Commons tbe matter was discussed when the Railway subsidies were under consideration, as a result of the discus- sion the Premier assured us that our claims for a refund would be consider- ed if presented at the next session of parUament. I mail you a hansard containing the debate on this subject and hope as tbe matter is one of great impor- tance to the county that the Council will take such action to S;H:ure justice to the county as to them may seem right and proper. The deep interest I take in the wel- fare of tbe county must be my excuse P mSOLS illlSHtDES.: i A great variety, I start them 40c. Special value in a pure Alpacca Parasol 90c.
