THE OBNOXIOUS BY-LAW.
At the same sitting of the R.M. Court, Mr Charles liaylock was fined five nhilHivijs for driving cuttle through tbe town during the prohibited hours. There is no doubt he, was legally liabl-, and that it, was riyd.it he should be lined, but when one comes to Uiink that it was impossible for him to get pnst the town by any other road, it seems hard indeed.
Why the Borough Council do not move in the matier is beyond us, but t-erhaps they uve waiting for the influcutially signed petition, which is now being circulated, to b;? brought before them, it is to \w hoped when they do get it thoy will act at once, for the
alteration or cancelling of a by-law is a long operation, and we hope that Mr Haylock will be the last person to suffer by this oppresive law.
