Those‘ who like aclittle spice in Parliament will be interested in the account given by Mr. Blacklock, cor- respondent oi the Toronto Mall and Empire, of a lively tilt between Mr. Bennett and Mr. Motherwell over the letters ‘trip to Europe. The in- cident is reported as follows

"Mr. Bennett rallied Hon. W. R. Motherwell, minister of agriculture, on the trip which the latter made to Europe during the last summer. In the course oi his speech, the prime minister had remarked that, as things were progressing, there might be demand for a thoroughfare eon- necting the whole empire.

"On sea. and land we are now to have established, as the right hon- orable gentleman says. a system of imperial highways," began Mr. Beu- nett.

"I did not ssy that," interiected Mr. King.

“ft is delightful to find the state of mind that was once said to have been reflected in the utterance of a Vanderbilt, who. when the people complained of his toils 0n the New York Central, replied ‘to hell with the public.’ The minister o! agricul- ture says ‘well. what have you got to say about it," concluded ‘Mr. Ben- nett.

(Specialt o The Guardian) OTTAWA, Feb. 25.—'I‘he fishery interests oi the Maritime Provinces loom up as a source of controversy for parliament, both in the standing committee on marine and ﬁsheries and on the ﬂoor of the house as well.
