(Spectat To Tae Exayiner},

Orrawa, April 2!.—In the House of Commons yesterday the dis.ussion of the statutary increases was resumed. The item for the salaries in the Governor General’s office and Privy Council Office was passed,

The Department of Justice was next reached when it was found that of the six clerks qualified for an increase, four got a raise and two did not. This revived the discussion of discrimination and agais an explanation of the basis of chvice was given.

A long discussion took place on the item of militia salaries, respecting the superapuation of Accountant Umeara and the appointment Mr, Borden, of Kentville in his place ata larger ealary to begin with than tha: paid tothe Accountant of any other department.

When the House adjourned at midnight the militia clause had not beeu voted. Mr. Davin moved that it should be reduced $600.

It is pretty certain that the plebiscite bill, to be introduced by Hon, Mr. Fisher, will provide for the submission of the question pure and simple.

The date of the election will be pro- bably be September or October of this year or at some later date when the next electoral list has been prepared.
