It* most parts o! the country the election of Licensing Committees is creating some considerable excitement,the publican and Go d Templar parties each working their very hardest to secure a majority on the Boards. In Vincent County, however, whether from the fact that the authorities have not yep notified the when, the how, or the where, the elections are to take place, there is neither sign or move on the part o' either party. Though while not supposing that either party is asleep,, we would suggest • that both arnn-e themselves, and whist thinking that it is desirable, that everything should be done to check intemperance, wa should be Sorry to see the Boards composed entirely of temperance a I vacates, or for iha matter of that of publicans’ no ninees. |Tha powers vested in the Boards being far too great for either one party to have the ruling. We wonld like to see mixed boards selected. Even handed justice might than be expected.
