"ALLEN | NOW PLAYING! Constance Talmadge in Perfect Woman (ORS: 0 BE TAKEN By Jigs: Lavell "in Regard to Registration of Voters. The conflicting interpretations by | election officials of the provisions of | the Election Act respecting the re- vision of voters lists, especially as to | the necessity for the gpersonal tendance of the applic before revising officers, is causing consider- able perplexity both to the public at- and those concerned with the admin. | istration of the act. To clear the air, at least for the time being, we have obtained from Judge Lavell the fol- lowing statement as to the course to be followed here: . "My intention, in view of the in- definite wording of the rules of pro- cedure applicable to revision of the lists, has bgen to interpret them as giving the revising officers discre- tion in certain special cases to admit other evidence than that of the ap- plicant if such evidence is given by a relative or intimate personal friend having a first-hand positive know- ledge of the facts, It seems a hard- ship to refuse the right to vote in cases where sickness, temporary ab- sence or other good reason makes personal attendance impossible, It has never been my view that lists of names, sponsored by any organiza- tion or institution, should be ad- mitted wholesale or on héeresay. in individual instances it seems emin- ently reasonable and proper that no technical difficulty or narrow inter- | pretation of the law should prevent any duly qualified persons from be- ing added to the voters' list when vouched for under oath by competent and reliable witnesses. His Course "As an application has been made to the supreme court of Ontario for a judicial interpretation of the rules in question, I have determined to deal only with personal-applications on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday next. If no decision is then given or if the motion fails or is abandoned, I will exercise my own judgment in the remaining days of the week or until a decision is given, following the principle above indicated. I am dealing only with the lists in Rideau and Victoria wards, but I have no doubt that my associate, Mr. Assel- stine, who has charge of the remain- ing city lists, and Mr. Walkem in Portsmouth, will follow the same course. "Notwithstanding that there will be a holiday on Monday and a half | holiday on Saturday of next week, it bas been suggested that some citi- gens may not be able to attend per- gonally except in the evening. The revising officers have, accordingly, agreed to sit on Thursday evening next from 7 to 9 o'clock." THE EASTER MARKET PRICES REASONABLE Eggs at 35 Cents a Dozen-- Maple Syrup 50 Cents a Quart. Kingston's market was a picture of brightness and prosperity Saturday morning. Flowers afid smiling faces weré clustered around almost every wagon loaded down with good things to eat at reasonable prices. The day before Easter, with the demand great and the supply just about able to meet it, some eggs sold at twelve for | 5c, with the general price a few cents higher. Butter remained at 50c a pound and up. Flowers were ob-| jects of great interest at this Easter | market, Other lines stuck to the same | prices obtaining last Saturday with potatoes at $1 a bag; greens of all| kinds 10c and 15¢ per bunch; and maple syrup at 55¢ and 60¢ a quart. A bill will elect a king should the queen leave no royal descendant and there be no male descendants of the last king. Great Britain probably will join the United States in effecting the ar- rest of Grover Bergdoll, convicted draft dodger, and his return to the United States. . DEMANDS OF US.

Consequently the government hast- ened to escape the burden of subsid- izing the coal mines by putting an end to control, and the masters and men were left with the wage ques- tion unsettled and a heavy deficit staring them in the face. The owners then questioned the justice of a policy of requiring the districts, which were losing money, to pay as high wages as the still solvent districts and suggested local settlements, thereby throwing over- board the ideal for which the Miners' Federation has fought for years. With the governmont officials and the mine owners dispersed for the Easter holidays, the crisis has come at an unfortunate moment, but the difficulty which miners would have in financing a nation-wide struggle so soon after the long strike of last | fall will, leaders it is thought, incline their to moderation at | moment, | INLAND REVENUE OFFICE TRANSFERS The Work Hereafter to Be Done in the Customs House.
