Asfar as Ontario is conserned there appears to be an uncertainty in some quarters as to whether or not a fresh registration of yoters will be required in the cities and towns. It may be pointed out that the new Franchise Act under which the Plebiscite will be taken requires that registration shall only be made when the lists are more than a year old and as there was a registration last February for the Proâ€" vincial election there is no necessity for registration at this time. At other points where the system of registration is not in force the last voters list are to be used and in the unorganized districts special lists are being prepared. an. The indications are daily increasing‘ that the fight will be a bitter one,. both sides realizing how much dapcnds‘ upon the result. The liquor interest, which claims to be quiescent in the Provincial Plebiscite fights, is now in the thick of the fray and will spare neither money nor labor to win.
