Women's Unionist and Tariff Reform Assoctation. MEETING AT LLANDUDNO. A well-attended meeting was held at the Constitutional Club on Friday afternoon, for the purpose of taking into considera- tion the advisability of forming a branch at Llandudno of the Women's Unionist and TariN Reform Association. Mr R. S. Chamberlain, in introducing Lady Mostyn, who presided, said that the A.sso.c.iatibn had taken on remarkably well in the South of England, where it. had accomplished some excellent works during the recent Election.—(Applause.) Lady Mostyn, who was cordially re- ceived, said the. "Woman's Unionist and Tariff Reform Association" has made a very great headway, and has been wel- comed enthusiastically whenever its ob- ject have been made known.—{Hear, hear.) I have been carefully watching its progress with very considerable interest, and now that it has arrived at an age when it i6 possible to experience the good work done, I felt. I should be wanting in my duty to the Unionist cause, at Llandudno if I did not make some little attempt to draw your attention to the subject. In Flintshire at a most representative meet- ting of ladies of the whole .county, we started a branch of the "Women's Unionist and Tariff Reform Association" yesterday, and there are already existing in other parts of North Wales active branches doing .good work.—(Applause.) I am very anxious to explain that we have no desire whatever to upset or interfere with the Primrose League .in this town.—(Hear, hear.) But thought we might meet to- day to discuss whether the two organisa- tions could not work together under the auspices of the Primrose League, and that the "Women's Unionist and Tariff Re- form Association" should supplement the good work done by the old organisation of the Primrose Lea,gue.—(Hear, hear.) The last Parliamentary Election and the general course of polkities has made it clear that. wo, the Unionists of the coun- try, have our work to do, and that work cannot be done in an enicient manner un- less properly organised.—(Applause.) The "Women's Unibntist and Tariff Re- form Association" is an organisation which is the direct outcome of the neces- sity felt in recent years that the Unionist pFinca.ples require more systematicaJly and more adequately placing before the general body of electors.—(Cheers.) Lady Mostyn concluded by saying that the principles of the Association were clear, concise, and definite,—Union of 'Great Britain and Ireland, Fiscal Re- form, Soc\i'al Reform, and Political Edu- c atio n. —(Appi aus e.) Miss Barnard, of London, next address- ed the meeting upon the objects of the Association. She said that "Fiscal Re- form" was the most important question before the country at the present time, j and proceeded to enumerate instances showing that the question is Rot yet understood properly. The two main things required by the masses was a cheap and abundant supply of the necessities of life, and a living wage for employment.— (Hear, hear.) Fiscal Reform especially concerned the, women of the country inas- much as they were the housekeepers, and often the breadwinners.—(Applause.) And it was important that they should realise that England was no longer the greatest manufacturing country of the world, which proud position she once held. To-day the English farmers were severely handicapped by the present so- called Free Trade. The foreign farmer enjoyed all the advantages of our mar- kets and paid nothing, whilst the British farmers had to bear the cost of majintain- ing the markets.—(Cheers.) The price of an article was of very little importance if there was no money to buy it. What was the use of cheap bread without employ- ment. Tariff Reform was a. question of employment, and they must think of the producer as well as -heconsumer.-(Hea,r, hear.) The present Government promised cheap food, but food was dearer now than it had: been for generations. The Liberal .Government collected as much as ten and a half millions in taxes on food, so that the food tax was certainly more applicable. to the Liberals than to the Conservatives.—(Applause..) Years ago there was a duty of a sh- -,ng, on a quar- ter of corn, but bread did not then rise anything like what it had done during the last two years when there was no tax a'u aiLl. In France there was a duty of 12s. a quarter on corn, but the price. of bread was exactly the same as in England.— (Applause.) Although enough wheat not be grown ijn England, it could be grown in the Empire.—{Hear, he.ar.) They were not going to tax food any more than it was already .taxed. Wha.t was intended was to take off the tax from articles that could not be produced in England and place it on the artJi'cles wirch England could pro- duce.—(Cheers.) The Liberal party boast- ed that they did not tax food, but they as women were still waging for a. recipe from Mr Lloyd-George for a plum pudding made without currants and raisins.— (Laughter.) In conclusion, Miss Barnard said that in the constituencies where the two victories were won in Wales during the recent election, tlie "Women's Unionise and Tariff Reform Association" were working in both.—(Applause.) On behalf of Mrs Hughes, the Dame President of the Pr'imrose League., Mr R,. S.. Chamberlain proposed, that. the work of the "Women's Unionist and Tariff R,e- form Association" be taken up by the loca.l habitation of the Primrose League at Llandudno. Miss Buckley seconded, and the motion was carried. Lord. Mostyn, ''n mov'no- a vote of thanks to Miss Barnard for her interest- ing address, referred 'o &! paragraph he had s.e.en 'in a newspaper bating that what wa,s ca,lled a, Glads'one LpH.gue bad the other day be.en formed nt I P and that Dr. Spintber Jarpc's, who was a very old friend of his—(laughter)—was the Welsh organiser of the league, and explained its objects whijeh it was stated were "to counteract the. methods of in- timidation and false statement adopted and circulated by the Tory and Pro- tectionist organisations and press."— (Renewed laughter.) It seemed very funny that they had also met that after- noon to form an Association to counter- act.—(Laughter and applause.) Continuing, Lord Mostyn said that they dijd not know how soon a General E'lec- tion would be upon them, so they should prepared for it. He trusted they would not be down-hearted at Llandudno, but would prepare in earnest for the next con- ni.ct. Why should Rhyl have all the Con- servatives.—(Laughter'.) They in Flint- shire had won great victories in the County Council elections, which showed what could be done by permanent hard work.—(Applause.) Mrs Wood seconded, and the Rector supported the vote of thanks, whi<ch was carried. A vote of thanks was also accorded Lady Mostyn for presiding, upon the proposition of Mr Chamberlain, seconded by Mrs Arnold.

SAFETY AT CINEMATOGRAPH ENTERTAINMENTS. Mr J. Watkin Lumley presided at the Colwyn Bay Petty Sessions on Saturday, when, on the application of Mr A. E. Crabbe, the licence of the Royal Oak was transferred to Mr J. H. Cooper, the manager of the late tenant., to whom it was renewed for the ensuing yea.r. ng Mr Crabbe also applied that the licence of the Marine Hotel, Old Colwyn, should be granted to Mr John Williams Lloyd, the husband of the late Mrs Lloyd, who had conducted the hotel for many years. He was one of the executors under the will. Superintendent Beresford said that Mr Lloyd was a very respectable man, and (the. Superintendent believed) a teetotaler, although he kept a public-house. The application was granted. Mr Harry Reynolds, the proprietor of the bioscope entertainment at the Public. Hall, Colwyn Bay, applied for a licence under the Cinematograph Act of last, year. The Chaiirman said that this was the nrst application under the new Act, and very strict investigation was needed be- fore it, could be granted. Superitntendent Beresford said he had examined the hall, and thought that Mr Reynolds had complied fairly well with all the conditions laid down by the Secre- tary of State, but he thought that before the application was granted the magis- trates should visit the place and give their decision. Some parts of the regu- ations they had power to forego if they thought it advisable. One of these was with regard to the lantern being placed outside the auditorium. At the PuMin Hall it was insMe, and it was hardly pos- sible to provide otherwise. The Chairman said that the justices had had the matter under consideration before they entered the court, and they had decided to adjourn the consideration of the application with a. view to a careful inspection being made'. As the respon- sibility chieny rested with the police as to whether the place was considered fit or not, the magistrates suggested th at, Superintendent Beresford should have the assistance of the county surveyor, and that their report should be submitted in writing to the next Court. Serious acci- dents had occurred from time to time in (connection with cinematograph exhibi- tions, and the Court must protect the pub- lic as far a.s they could. The magistrates would also arrange for a separate in- spection of the buildmg. The application was then adjourned to the next sitting on April 9th.

EXPERIMENTS WITH A WELL-KNOWN COUGH CURE By a London Scientist. Chas. Hyatt-WooIf, Esq., F.R.P.S., F.R.S.L., Editor of Popular Science Sittings, writes as follows in his new book, "Truths about things we live on and daily use."—"With a view to discovering a form of medicine needed to diminish congestion, aid of expectoration, and soothe the respiratory track, I experi- mented in the laboratory with Venous Lightning Cough Cure and applied it in practice. I found this remedy contained a variety of matters capable of affording relief in all those cases where coughing is a symptom. Not only tMs, but it is a. dis- tinct nerve sedat'-ve and tonic, and is not only applicable with advantage in cases of bronchial coughs but, also for stomach coughs. It would likewise have a certain value in consumption, it showed distinct ability to abate feverish symptoms, and in all cases to which I applied it, the in- fluence of Veno's Lightning Cough Cure was most marked. This Cough Cure is very nicely compounded, so much so that it is even pleasant to take, its delightful flavour commending it to the most fas- tidious patient. It contains no opiate or anything that could effect harm. Take Veno's Lightning Cough Cure for all diseases of chest, throat and lungs in young or old. Price 9'd., Is.

LLANDUDNO LIBERAL ASSOC!AT!ON. ANNUAL MEETNG. The annual meeting of the Llandudno Liberal Association was held on Friday ni,ght. The chair was occupied by Mr H. Woodall, the, president. A financial state- ment submitted by Mr J. 0'. Thomas, the hon. treasurer, showed a satisfactory balance in hand, and was adopted on the motion of Mr R. Tonge, seconded by Mr B. C. Jones, subject to audit. Mr Robert Roberts, the hon. secretary, announced that the annual meeting of the Welsh National Liberal Council would be held at Llandudno on Tuesday, the 22nd inst., when Lord St. David's, the chair- man, was expected to preside. It was decided to appoint the following- members as a committee: Mr Ja.s. McMaster, Mr J. Roberts, Mr J. J. Marks, Rev. John Raymond, Mr B. C. Jones, Mr Wm. Owen, and Mr W. A. E.vans to make arrangements for the recept&bn of the Council. O't the motion of the. Rev.J.Rav- monj, seconded by Mr John Roberts, Mr Woodall was enthusiastically re-elected president and thanked for his past ser- vices. Mr Robert Roberts and Mr J. 0. Thomas were re-elected hon. secretary and hon. treasurer. Mr Roberts, in re- sponding, said that in the year a Liberal club had been founded and was now in a nourishing condition, with over 300 mem- bers.—(Applause.) Referring to the County Council elections, he said that three years ago they allowed the strength of the Liberal party to lie dormant, but at the recent contest it was brought into action, wi(th the result that, if it had not been for the accident in LIysfaen which led to the return of a, Conservative mem- ber, there would not have been a single Conservative left east of the Conway river to tell the story.—(Laughter and applause. The Li'beraJ party was pre- dominant in LIysfaen, and the seat there ought not to have gone astray. He nrm- Iy believed that the system of ward com- mittees which had been adopted had proved very satisfactory and ought to be further developed. There was no doubt that there was a great future for the Liberal party in Llandudno, and Llan- dudno and the places in the vicinity (on that side of the river) were gomg to be the head of the Arfon division, if it was not so to-day.—(Applause.) THE PIONEERS' BATTLE. Mr John Bedilills, who. spoke with refer- ence to the re-election of Mr J. 0. Thomas as treasurer, said that he was treasurer for t.he Llandudno Liberal Asso- ciation when it was formed, over forty years ago. It was just on the eve of the great battle at the electron of 1868. Then the whole county was Tory, and a circular was sent to those who were thought to be Liberal in opinion asking them to meet to try to form a. Liberal association. The meeting was held in the Baptist Chapel, but only four attended. They were Mr Spintber James, Mr S. 0. Hughes, the late Mr Thomas Edge, and himself. Mr Spinther James was appointed president, Mr Hughes secretary, and he (Mr Bellis) treasurer. They paid 5s. each towards the funds, and so an association was started. The fact got into the papers, and Mr Hall, then living at Tanybryn, came down and brought a cheque for two guineas. That was the start of the nght against Toryism m the county, and Llandudno had always led the van. It won the elec- tion at that time. About fifty or sixty Llandudno Liberal voters went to Conway and openly voted for their candidate. Every man who so voted was a marked man.—(Applause and "Shame.") Mr J. 0. Thomas said he had been treasurer since the death of the late Mr Thomas Edge, and for the nrst sLx or seven years of his treasurership it was simply a miserable job.—(Laughter.) There was always a balajice on the wrong side at the bank, and bills signed by him- self and the late Mr E?lias Jones were re- newed at the bank so often that at last the bank manager declared that he would renew them no more. But for Mr Robert Roberts, the secretary, and himself, there would have been no assocLaLion at all for some years. But now, things were very, dinere.nt. They had got money in the bank and there was a much keener interest taken in the welfare of the party.—(Ap- plause.) Mr John Roberts moved that the hearty congratulations of the meeting be tendered to the successful Liberal candi- dates at the County Council elections the previous week. Thi's was seconded by Mr 'Vrilfam 'Owen and carried unani- mously. Mr James Marks, who replied on behalf of the four Liberal County Councillors, said that it was, taking everything into consLderatibn, an astonishing victory for Liberalism in the town and district.— (Applause.) The executive committee, wa.s e'ected, the following additions to fill vacancies 'be:,ng made Mr W. A. Evans, the Rev. William Roberts, the Rev. H. Lewis, Mr John Be¡¡lis, Mr Wilson Grimths, Mr J. Dowetl, Mr J. R. Thomas, Mr Thos. Thomas, Mr T. Hewitt, and Mr David Jones (Llwynfryn). The Llandudno Women's Liberal Association at the sug- gestion of Mr B. C. Jones, the Liberal Club were 'asked to elect ten members on the executive'. Th following members of the executive committee were re-elected (in addition to those appointed to fill vacancies) — Alderman John Owen, Mr W. J. Roberts, Great Orme Mr James Marks, Mr F. Snfltrh, The, Chalet; Mr John Jones, The Ma.nor; Mr G. Edwards, Mr W. Mitchell, Mr Hugh Edwards, Mr E. D. Jones, the Rev. E.va.n Hug-hes, the Rev. W. Dav;.e.s, Mr H. Wil- liams, Mr J. McMaster, Mr T. W. Gr-'nith, Mr J. Cheetham, Mr D. J. Jones, Mr 'Valoughhy Lance, Mr D. W. Thoma.s, Mr Garmon Jones, Mr Lincoln Evans, M- H. Hughes, Mr J. R. Jones,

THE NEW LIBRARY. At a joint meeting of the LJandudno Library Building and Management Com- mittees the question was discussed with the architect of the furnishing of the new building which will shortly be completed. With regard to the book shelving, the Committee examined sketches of construc- tions in iron which the Committee were informed would be somewhat more expen- sive, yet more durable than wooden shelves. The Architect was asked to prepare two schemes, one for metal shelves and the other for hard woodi shelves. With respect to other items required, such as tables, chairs, counter, newspaper racks and stands, magazine racks, electri- cal nttings. etc., the Architect was asked to prepare alternative estimates, one for furnishing in a substantial and permanent style, and the other a more modest scheme for furnishing in a temporary manner, utilizing such articles of furniture as the Council may already possess, and which could be used for the purpose either tem- porarily or permanently. The Committee asked for the estimate of the cost of furnishing the lecture room to be kept separate. The Committee decided that so soon as the Architects final certificate has been made out and forwarded to Mr Carnegie's Cashier for payment, an application be made to Mr Carnegie for a donation on aecount of the furnishing of the building, Mr Carnegie to be at the same time sup- plied wiith a copy of the Architect's esti- mate of the cost of the furnishing. It wae also decided to ask Mr Carnegie whether he can now fix a time for performing the opening ceremonv.

A rather absent-minded doctor was re- cently one of the guests at a large banquet. During the conversation drifted on to poetry, and Burns was the subject af much discussion. "Well, said one of the guests, turning to the doctor, who was .sitting with a far- away look in his eyes; "what is your opinion of Burns, Mr G———?" "Eh! burns?" stammered the doctor. ''Well, I don't know/' he continued, "but I think the infirmary is the proper place for burns."
