DISSOLUTION TALK! CREATES_ INTEREST.Government May Go to Country Owing to Obstruction of Supply.ORDER OF GOVERNMENT TO-DAY IN HOUSE OF COMMONS IS SUPPLY.Ottawa, March 21.\u2014(Special)\u2014The Government order in the House of Commons to-day is to be supply and in view of the taik oi possible dissolution interest attaches to what will be said and done.If Government should implement supposedly inspired intimation of its organs and bring on dissolution on reciprocity issue, it would be an unwelcome thing to the Opposition in the House or to broader opposition, which on national issue now before the country goes far beyond and obliterates lines of political partisanship, but if at the same time an appeal to the country is to be contingent upon the deliberate obstruction, of supply by the Opposition in the next two weeks essential condition precedent may or may net develop.cun mm IID «IFF BOH.Such is Programme Outlined By President Taft.IS NOW AT WORK ON MESSAGE TO BE PRESENTED TO CONGRESS.Washington, March 21.\u2014President Taft on his arrival from his vacation at Augusta, Ga., yesterday began preparations for his message to Congress which he now proposes shall be confined to Canadian reciprocity and the establishment of a permanent tariff board.The President is convinced that the country desires and ought to desire a further revision of the schedules of the Payne-Aldrich act.He feels that the woollen schedule, schedule K, is particularly indefensible.It is said that he is anxious that it 1 shall be revised at an early date.The President is equally convinced, however, that the country desires that revisions of the future shall be made in the light of the expert information which it is the duty of a tariff board to collect.So at this time, it is said, he rather inclines to the idea that no schedule should be revised upon which the tariff board is not ready with its information.The President has directed the tern porary hoard to make a report on the woollen schedule by Dec.l next.Personally he would very much like Congress to wait until that time and not make any attempt to revise any of the schedules at the extra session.GENERAL SLAUGHTER OF DEERNEARJSCOTSTOWN Animals are \u201cYarded\u201d^and Cannot Escape Owing to Deep Snow.TRACES OF DEER SLAYERS FOUND ALL OVER THE DISTRICT.Scotstown, March 21.\u2014(Special)\u2014 There is a general slaughter of deer going on in the several districts surrounding this town.It is thought by those who are posted in regard to the matter that if the snow continues to remain much longer there will be no deer left.At present the deer are in yards and the snow is so deep that when hunters on snowshoes with dogs get after them, they have no chance of escape, and are at the mercy of the hunter, who is illegally hunting at this time of the year.Last week two men from this town were called on business to the town of Ditton.They ran into a Party of hunters who had the \u201cgoods\u201d right with them.There seems to be no restraint whatever in the hunting in, close season in that section.Anyone who will go through the woods in the districts of the ranges of Cohoos, Little Quebec, in the .town of Ditton, also in Macnamee district in the township of Hampden and on the north side of the Lingwick road in the township of Lingwick, and in fact in any section where the deer find a shelter, will see trails here and there covered with blood, which show the work of the deer-slayer.People who are interested in the preservation of game in this section are wondering why the Government officials are doing n0thing in regard to this matter.Not so very many years ago when the farmers in this section of the country were not as well off as they are now, every little while some government officer would make trouble for those who had killed a deer for the use of the family.There is no excuse now, as no one is so poor that ho cannot afford to buy meat for their family.This general slaughter of deer is carried on these days simply for sport but after a very \u201cunsportsmanlike\u201d manner.It is hoped that the continuous reports from the different sections of the country which have appeared in the Record will bring to the attention of the Government this illegal killing of one of the most noblt.animals in the forest, and cause the proper authorities to ts-ke some action which will put a stop to such a slaughter.PROPOSES BOYCOTT OF THE _ One Suggestion in Connection With Bonded Baggage Matter.HOUSE AND SCOTSTOWN.The St.Patrick\u2019s concert, which was given in Strathcona Hall, Friday evening, under
