FEMALE SUFFRAGE It will interest Ontario woixienthat - they,haye a real champion inllan Studholme, the Labor member': for Hamilton. In a Bill (No. iso ' 'bro- ught before the Legislature on ',the 5th. inst. he would add the folleiVing clause to the Ontario Election Act: "Notwithstanding anything contained. in The Ontario Voters List Act,," The Ontario Election Act, and ' The Consolidated Municipal Act, 1903 every married woman, unmarried wo- man and widow of the age of twenty- one years and being a British .subject shall be entitled to vote at Municipal elet lions, and at elections for the ass- emble of this Province, aed enjoy all the rights and privelages of franchise and representation held by male vot- ers, subject only to the provisions:' of residence in the Province and in the Municipality and Electoral District respectively, as in the case of male voters". Mr. Taft goes out and Mr. Wilson comes into the Presidency of the United States. Mr. Taft was a great, big, honest, well-intentioned Execut- ive. He did not please everybody. Such men seldom do. But he did things all the same. His successor will no doubt administer government according to high ideals. We wish him a worthy administration. lV r. Taft we respect more than ever. His name will compare well with any on the American Scroll of Honor. That a horse power tax should be levied on automobiles and the re- venue applied to road maintainance: that a grant toward the maintainance of roads as well as their construction should be given by the province; the Government's share of construct ion cost in connection with county roads should be one half instead of one-third; that properties benefitted by the good roads should undergo a par- tial assessment for their upkeep; that the strongest move toward populating the rural districts was'the building of good roads; that the license fee on autos should be raised from $4 to $25 per year, and the funds applied to. road construction, and that statute labor should be abolished. These were the principal points dealt with at the annual meeting of the Ontario Good Roads Association held in Toronto last week. Farmers and stockmen generally agree that the present winter is the easiest in respect to feeding and gen- eral care of stock in years, and unless the winter from now on is unusually severe and prolonged there will be an abundance of fodder of all kinds until the coming of pasture. • Stock went into the stables in excellent shape last fall, and where poor accomodat- ion exists in the shape of cellars aid barns there has been no distress or shrinkage through cold as is generally the case. Dairymen are getting good prices, and the flow of milk is well maintained. Farmers express little anxiety in regard to fall wheat crop,' though the greater part of the wiii ter it has been uncovered and pre- sents a brown and withered appear-' ance. Timothy and clover seeds foo, are experiencing a hard winter theough the absence of snow, but is yet too soon to hazard an estnna4 as to the loss.
