m: BILL sarcasm: stuns.

“Over fifty thousand Cmadian electors have, by petitions presented before the Dominion Parliament registered thhir protest against the Grand Trunk Pacific deal." Thlsis an unprecedented record, and the case is made the stronger by the fact that there have been no petitions in its favor. Thereis no answering host to meet the peremptory challenge of this army of fifty thousand. Moreover, gppafenlly, if the lavish public appropri-

There is no decent pretext for the ma: haste with which this project has been hurried through. Sir Wilfred's rhetorical flourish about the danger of the bonding privilege being revoked is too absurd and unreasonable to bear repetition. It vanished into thin air in the first stage of the debate in the Commons. Not one argument worthy of the name has been put forward to justify the duplication of the Intercolonial east of Quebec. Not a single effective au- swer has been made to the forcible and well-reasoned objections of Hon. Mr.

Blair. For all these and for many other reasons the duty of the Senate is plain, to radically amend- or to reject the bill. What will the Senators do! We know not. What we do know is that the Gov‘ ernment organs east and west assert with serene confidence that the Senate will pass the bill. Apparently this con- fidence is based on nothing better than the fact that there is_now a Liberal madority in the Upper House, or the be- lief that the senate has been; “fixed”. Both these reasons ' are lnshlting in their nature and the latter one”, is only a little more insulting than the other. We have a better opinion of the Senate than have these editors of subsidised organs. We believe there is still a goodly measure o: independence ‘in that body and we look to it to protect the interests of the people and the threatened security of the Dominion.

one;

There is good reason why the minister- lal parly and press should seek to break the force of the numerous petitions pre- sented to Parliament agginst the huge railway scheme. The same stale trick was again and again tried in years past to discredit the temperance and prohibi- tion petitions. Amdavits denying their their signatures were made by- alleged signers of petitions, the cry of forgery raised and all or that sort of thing. Then asnow the great bulk of the signatures were undoubtedly genuine and the majority of intelligent electors can have no doubt of the fact. The people‘ wanted prohibition but could not get it. They do not want the railway scheme and it is to be forced upon them.
