Speaking with regard to tho question of compulsory enrolment, tho Chief Commonwealth Electoral - Commissioner, Mr Oldham, stated tho enrolment had never been so active in tho history pf the Commonwealth as it was at tho present moment. “To illustrate the fact, ’? he said, “I might point to a return recently forwarded to mo from Queensland. This shows that when tho elections were held there in 1910 there wore 279,031 names on the roll. There is no doubt that numbers of these were duplicated, sinoo there "was no card system in operation at that time. At the end of December there were no fewer than 330,000 names on the. Queensland rolls, and these are qpite free from all duplications. Further claims for enrolment arp being received daily, and it, will be. necessary to print an enormous mentary list. So far 'as Victoria concerned, it is shown that the 19 rolls contained 703-G99 names, wh at the beginning of this year th< were 747,603 enrolments. Owing to I New South Wales redistribution schen being adopted so late in the session some little delay has been caused in the preparation of • the rolls, but they will be ready in ample time for the elections. i Woods' Great Peppermint Cure.
