VOLUNTEER TEAMS.
As the Election Law very properly
• prohibits the hiring of teams for the
conveyance of voters to and from the
palls, such services must necessarily be
petformecl free of oharge. As it is of
the greatest •importance that a full vote
be brought out, We ask those friends of
the cause owning liorso and vehicles in
varians constituenCies to place them 'at
the disposal of the Cominittees on the
day of election, and to turn out thetnt
Ives,. wherever it be"possible to assist
in bringing up the voters. Lct those
having horses and vehicles for use notify
the Chairman or Secretary of the re.
eNectivo Conimittees as • many days
in advance as ppssible,. that' it tnity bo
known how many vehicles can be relied
on. Victory is assured in everydivision
of the County if the voter can be brought
out, and NVO are confident that the Mends
of good government will not bo 'lacking
