Our attention has been called to the bad state of the sidewalks on the main street in this village with a request that we should give the matter an airing through the columns of the press. NOW, we suppose our Village Fathers understand their business and knew the wants of the community without our ‘iuterference; yet, at the same time, it does seem necessary that something should be done in making good what is bad and out of repair. We are modest and unassuming, and do not wish to be thought presumptious in so soon begin- ning to find fault with the manner in which the public servants of the people perform their duties. We, therefore, throw out the suggestionfin all liumility,to , the dignitaries who rule over the destines of this corporation, that they should,with- out delay, begin to alter their ways by .repairing and pulling in proper order gtbe sidewalks on Yonge street, as soon I as possible. I I The Mail newspaper Of the 3rd inst. 'Ouly reached us on the morning ofthe 5th. What is the cause of this delay. I @mmuvImitation. _,.._ ...... . ._._ #L To the Ediler of The Herald. DEAR SIR,â€"Would you kindly per- :mit me to use the columns of THE :IIEIIAIID for the purpose Of asking a question of Mr Sillcnee, which was asked 1the other evening and answered, but in Isucli an indefinite manner as to throw no light whatever upon the subject. Mr 1Sillen'ce, upon the occasion referred to, gstated that an hotel keeper found giving ‘liquor to certain persons who are in the ' habit of becoming intoxicated, after being notified by any person not to do ‘ So, was liable to prosecution. Upon being asked where this clause of the Li quor Aer, reiluiring to prosecutions in such cases, might be I'Oundwreplied ': I“ In the Provincial Statutes of Ontario.” I Would like Mr Sillcnoe, if it were not too much trouble, to refer the to the par- ticular chapter, section, etc, of the said ' Act. By Complying with {be above request, he will confer a great favor on His repcctfully, A. ‘Vriglit. Richmond Hill, August 9, 1876. Summary of News.
