RECORDING
TOWNSHIPS AS WARDS.—The bill
163, Whieb Dr. McKay has introduced
the MunicipaP.Act also. It provides
that the council of any township

any year before the first of November

ship into four wards and at the next
general municipal election and at all
subsequent nmnicipal elections until
the by-law is repealed, ate councillor

T11..b. BARBERRY SErRuE.—By many
farmers the barberry shrub has been
declared to be injurious to the crops.
E. A. Little has a bill 'by which no per-
son shall keep or lease under cultiva-
tion in the province barberry shrubs
within half a mile of .farm lands upon
which grain is grown. The Minister
of Agriculture may have power to des-
troy any shrub of this nature by fire
under the supervision of qualified in-
spectors. These inspectors are to re-
port the value of the plants burned to
the Department of Agriculture and
compensation will be made. A.penalty
from $20 to $100 or 10days in jail may
be imposed on those refusing to early
out the provisions of the bill.
UP -SIDE DOWN.—At the poll in the
North Ward, in Mitchell, one of the
_High School teachers, a Liberal. voted
for Monteith. He handed the ballot
to the deputy returning officer, claim-
ing that he had spoiled it, and asked
for another. The deputy a.nd the
Liberal scrutineer carefelly exaeninecl
the ballot and they decided that it was
good, as no mark of any- kind appeared
on it, except the cross after Monteith's
name. The returning officer had no
altereative under the law bub to drop
it into the box, which be did. Now it
is claimed that the voter held his ballot
upside down when he marked it, which
a.c.counted for the. cross appearing
where it did.
