such that no deviation in prices is neces-

CLAM UNFAIRNEss.

One point, however the Liberals are
genuinely united in urging upon the
voters and that is the injustice Of al ap-
peal to the country at this particular time
on the ground that million or more
people entitled to vote in every respect
save one, will be disenfranchised because
the new register will not come into effect
untn shortly after the election In Scot
land, the new register comes into force as
carly as Nov %. All Liberals declare
that Lord Salisbury's action in going to
the country on an old and practical OBJ
solete register is not only against all pre-
cedent, but Is unconstitutional. The Con-
servatives retort by saying that Lord
Salisbury can scarcely be accused of try
ing to get unfair advantage, as, had he
waited until the new register came into
force, he would have the undoubted hene-
fit of a large body of reservists, yeomanry
and volunteers, now in South Africa, to
say nothing of the likelihood that owing
to the popularity of the war among the
younger sort the new registry would only
have helped to swell the Conservative
majority.
