A brief notice from The Banner at Main St Russell Manitoba advertising a yearly rate in advance and naming Joseph McIntyre as publisher.
Last Wednesday His Honor Sir Daniel McMillan presented 79 bills passed in the provincial session. Key measures include drastic amendments to the Licitor License Act Charter of the Winnipeg Produce and Grain Exchange and the Noxious Weeds Act. New portfolios created seed grain aid provisions changed legal procedure and several bills were dropped. The noxious weeds act imposes strict municipal inspections for sow thistle and Canada thistle with fines for councillors inspectors and farmers and requires weed cutting on roadsides and railway rights of way. The liquor interdict act tightening procedures now requires open court testimony and may reduce use of interdicts. Rural municipalities gain borrowing and distribution powers for seed grain and local telephone line construction with government-backed debentures. County courts see raised jurisdiction for attachments and contracts. Local option liquor measures require a 25 percent petition to trigger a by law and restrict liquor sales in local option districts including pharmacist and physician certificates for sale. Grain exchange rules demand prothonotary approval and one representative per member on the floor.
