The first meeting of the season of the Frontenac Cheese Board was held in the police court room, on 1 hursday afternoon, with the president, Herbert Sly, in the chair, and » goodly at- tendance of members. It has been the custom of the board to elect officers ag . the first meeting, but it yas decided to put offi the elec tion of oflicers until the first meeting in June. Alfred Alexander made the suggestion, -stating that this method bad been adopted by the board in Na- panee and had been found most satis- factory. The members felt that the suggestion 'was a good one, and, on motion of Richard Moore, seconded by George Porter, it was decided to act on it, The foliowing buyers were present : George Smith, Alfred Alexander, finorge Thompson, George Gibson, 1. Hw. Murphy. : | Messrs. Alexander and Moore | were elected to audit the books of | tha secretary. The members had {no cheese to board at this meeting, 80 a general discussion on cheese | sonditions in this district followed, GQ. A. Publow, chief dairy instrue- tor for Eastern Ontario, was pres- ent, and addressed the members on the conditions in this district. He. | spoke of the work of the instructors and asked that the members keep in close touch with them regarding cou plaints. "The outlook for cheese at the present time is good," he added. "In { fact] I do net think I ever remember 1{it being better." He further stat- {ed that the price paid for cheese was | not the true food value If the true food value was paid, there would be fii { no complaints from the dairymen. | The, dairymen should aim to have | the conditions in their district Just {as good as possible If all would {do just a little better than last year, | conditions would continue to be im- i proved. | Mr. Publow stated that in. con- | nection with the work at' Kingston {| Dairy school, deputations were nev- | er taken on a trip of inspection in { this district. The poorest conditions | prevailed within the shadow of the i Kingston dairy school. Deputations | Eoing on an inspection had to be taken as far as fifty miles away | from this district. If the price for cheese was not sufficient the speak- er would adyise having the price raised. The Kingston district should be made as good as the best. He appealed to them to do their best William Pillar, speaking on condi tions, stated that the patrons of | factories should instruct all their salesmen to board all their cheese on this board Half Price Sale Suits, Coats, Dresses Saturday, 8.30 a.m. The cold backward spring finds us over-stocked and compels us to sacri. The salesmen were {| simply standing in their own light, THE FE to sell off the - board, | would be a failtire. | Joseph Cramer also held that the salesmen were to blame. If the salesmen 'decided to board cheese, and not gell on the street, then the buyers would have to do business (on the board, : Charles Goun held that the buy- ers were to blame. He said that {Just so long as the buyers paid more on the street for the cheese, than they did on the board he would not put his cheese on the board. George Smith said the trouble was in the fact that each salasman wan- ted to 'beat his meighbor, in secur- ing a better price. If a buyer knew he could make a good deal off the board, he would do business off the board. Mr. Alexander said the Petérboro board had a good rule, which pre- vented the salesmen from selling off the board. In case an offering from a inctory was not sold on the board, then the salesman Was given permis- sion to sell on the street. . Mr. Pillar gave it as his opinion that the board should have its busi ness incarporated, and recommended such action be taken. In addition, he suggested that the rules of the board be revised. There was considerable discussion up till 2.30 p.m., when the members ad. journed to attend the meeting in the Board of Trade rooms, to be address- ed by J. A. Ruddick, dairy commis- sioner.

Toronto, April 16.--What might he taken as another forerunner of the near approach of a provincial election was disclosed in the legislature yos- terday when Hon. W. Ji.

The Hill deals with the manhood suffrage franclise act, the voters' lists act and the "On- tario~election act. the first clause provides that « here lists for manhood suffrage voters have been prepared under the dominion election act these lists may, with the consent of the first 'minister of the executive council gf Ontario and the leader of the opposition, be used at auy election if they have not been pre- pared more than one year' before the date of the writ of election, ualess there are lists of a later date, and new lists shall not be prepared, With regard to lists in unorganized districts, unless and until 8 new list has been prepared and certified the old list shall he the proper one to be used In any election. At the present time the prepaiation of lists in unorganiz- ed districts is one of the principal fac- tors to be considered in calling. an election, and under the law as it now. exists 1. takes. practically. three months to complete the lists. so that the amendment proposed will make provision for the use of the old lists if it is the desire of the party in pow er to order an election on short no- tice The law with respect. to the regis- tration of manhood sullrage votes ig changed so that the board of regis. tration instead of holding sessions { within seven days after (he date of the writ shall hold their last of four sittings not less than ten days before the date of the election. Mr Hearst pointed out that the time now allow- ed was too short to make the neces- sary arrangements and the- law wag bing honored in the breach. The present = law is also amended to provide that the registration board shall hold continuous sittings from nine o'clock in the morning until ten in the evening. Hitherto the hours of recess have Len Saconvenient, and occur at atime when a great many Voters ave unable to register. It is further. provided that the deputy rogistrar shall keep in the registra- tion booth a copy of the last revised voters' list, so that applicants shall be able to ascertain whether or not they are entitled to register. x An important change i% to be made in regard to the nomination of can didates, The amendment provides that the nominations shall be in writing, on a form to be signed" by at least fifty duly qualified voters of the electoral district, and the can- didate shall be nominated on a sep- arate nomination paper. If the nom- inator is not present in person such absence shall be stated, and the nom- ination must he accompanied by the written consent of the candidate to such nomination. If a request is made to the returning officer he shall make an examination of the nomina- tion paper to ascertain i§ it is regu- lar, and his certificate in writing shall be final, and the validity of the nom- ination shall not be open to ques tion on any ground' whatever, EX<SHAH OF PERSIA Is to Make an Effort to Regain the Throne Berlin, April 16.--A report from a thoroughly well-informed quarter is to the effect 'that a fresh plot is brewing for the seizure of the throne of Persia Lhe scheme, which is said to have been fomented in Russia, aims at re placing ex-Shah Mohammed Ali, who abdicted in 1909 the throne since oc- cupied by his son, Nassir, hs regent.
