soon be past and if some one dont move there wont be a darned thing done there abe times in the work of a newspaper man when he must be controlled by his sympathies for the innocent ones in the publi cation of news this paper bows to the inevitable in such oases and is willing to accept the criticism of some- if good is accomplished and aching hearts arc saved furth er pain at this time of the year when the assessment roll is being made up thero arc many enquiries as to what qualification must a woman have in order that her name may be placed on the municipal voters list there is an impression abroad that a woman and her husband may be assessed as owners of the same property and both have their names placed on the voters list this is erroneous except in cases where the deed of the property shows that there is actual joint ownership to be entitled to vote at municipal elections a woman must be assessed for not less than 800 on property which she has in her own name in the case of in come assessment the amount must bo 400 all women who are british subjects and 21 years of age will be entitled to voto at elections to the legislative assem bly but when a parliamentary election is to take place a special list of voters will be made up tho universal franchise however has nothing to do with municipal eleotions where the qualification is based on property ownership
