We were disposed, yesterday, to give Premier Farquharson credit for refusing | to sign the argreement, alleged to have been made between the Federal and Pro- vincial governments, providing for the construction of a bridge over the Hille- berough river, until the people had been consulted as to its provisions. Today, we shall, in view of the statements of the , Attorney General McKinncn (without ‘a seat) have to withdraw or at least postpone the credit which we should like to give. It appeare, according te the Patriot's re- pert of Mr. MecKinnon’s remark+, that the Dominion Government bas decided, in any case, to be guided by the engineer’s re- | port, by thie the minister will be guided ; ” “ if | the citizans delayed this matter, them the bridge would be lost altopetucr.” These | are the emphatic words ef Mr. Attorney | | General McKinnen.

The Dominion authorities refused to build the bridge where it ought to be because of a difference of $70,000 or $80,000 im cost ; and for the ea.ne reason, thev may, if they choose, have it censiructed 300 vards, or 600 yards, or a mile, further up the river They are, apparently, at this moment, by the mouth .ftheir law agent in this Pro- vince—the Attorney «General, bringing preseure to bear upon Premier Farqu- hereon and striving to force him to sign ac agreement which he knews is not for the best imterests of the Province. —A telegram from the cbief staff offi- cer at Ottawa, received today by Lt.-Col.
