effort will he made to limit the franchise when it before the Private Bills Committee Starrs Marmalade Oranges 5c a dozen Freeh Herrings a dozen Fresh Manitoba While Other Matters The engaging tbe of our men and next Spring Main Street will have a general tearing op It is important that when the roadbed is planted that it be not disturbed by the corporation and that permanent improve ments be made while the street is in dis order In the first place there should be a sewer in the centre of road of at least or inch tile from to Timothy and thence to tbe creek This should be low to drain the cellars the West side In tbe ditch on each side of the there should be at various places iron gratings and pipes leading to the main sewer to carry off the surface water The could then be made more level and thia would prevent any of damage by water running into the cellars of our merchants About twothirds of this cost should be borne by frontage tax and the rest by the Town In second place permanent grano lithic walks should be laid on both sides of Main fit from fiotsford to Timothy on West side and from store to Timothy on East at the expense of corporation ft wide Where wider required expense to be paid by property interested All the earth requir ed for filling would be right at hand and the work be accomplished at ft amah less figure the other work is going on This would save expense in the long run and give a business air to Newmarket that no other improvement would do In third place the present of widening Main St from Park Ave to Queen or Ontario should not be overlooked It is an easy matter to move the walks and do the grading while the other work fa proceeding but once the poles are planted Newmarket will be doom ed forever to have the most contracted business street to bo found in any place of Importance within the If we Aspire to be a County Town we most ehow reasonable for traf fic consequent upon a move The ooefc to the Town in connection with
