SKETCHES IN THE SENATE, ¥.
“At no previous period” said the Arch- bishop in his address at the recent Asquith wedding “have the English people cared so much as they do now about the home life of their publie men. They demand that these houses shall be free from scan- die and of good repute.” We may go further and assert that the people every— where are yearly demanding a higher re— cord of useful and honorable living for their public men. It is hardly sufficient now that a public man should be only and negatively moral in his home life. He must also show himself strong and active in good service for his fellows. His re- cord must be that of one who labors in some way for the health and advancement of good Government, the dissepimation of useful knowledge and human uplifting.
Year by sear we mre going into fuller recognition of the truth that :—
“The men most man, work best for men.”
And we are demanding that our public servants in high places should measure more nearly the full stature of a man. The day will come when no one shali be con- sidered eligible for honorable public office who has not a record, not alone of pure living but of good service in the interest of his fellow men.
In looking over the records of the lives of our Canadian Senators, past and present, we cannot fail to note how clozely they are bound up with all public and national his- tory of our country during the last half century. In Legislative and legal affairs, in manufacturing interests, in commerce and finance, in every national movement, in public offices, and in military service,— in every step, outward, onward and uf- ward to higher national development, these men have been in the midst of their country, serving untireingly.
Let us look down upon the gallery to- day and view our Senators in the light of their past labors and present standing, it order that we may see of what rank and manner they be.
First come those that remain of the Confederation Fathers,—men who were called to the Senate from the old Legisia- tive Council, the Commons, Provincial Legislatures, or other public offices, to form the Canadian Senate—Senators Dickey, McClennan McPherson, Miller O’Dell and Wark. Each of these is wor- thy of more than mention, since the recital of their public services would be that of Canada’s history during the past half cea- tury. And without apology to the many other able men, to the members of the Cabinet, or even the Premier himself, we give these members of the first Senate front rank.
Probably no member stands in higher, repute to-day than Senator Dickey of Nova Scotia, the father of the new Minis- ter of Militia. He has touched the edge of four—score years, yet as a scholarly and cultured man, of high legal acumen, he commands the cordial respect and regard of the entire Upper Chamber. Senator Dickey has a spleadid record, and his legal ability has served both his own province and the Dominion in many important con- ferences. His manner is the perfection of courtliness, bearing that fine old-school flavor that is unfortunately becoming so rare with the presvat generation.
Beside him, although not a Confedera- tion Father, we place Seuator Cowan, equal in years, and of highest judicial rank. To attempt in a few brief sentences to present this honorable gentleman’s ser- vice to Canada, or to give even a slight conception of the same, were au absurd- ity most palpable to those who know best its value and worth. For over 50 years Senator Gowan has been living a life of marked devotion to public interest. From the time when as a young law student he took arms to help quell the rebellion in °37, his judicial work has been of utmost service to Canada; not only in the discharge of ordinary duties, but in special work of revising statutes and amending legisiation. And now with the wealth of his four score years upon him he is still the man of clear judgment, of keen intellect, of rare old time humor and polish.
Of Sir David McPherson it is hardly needful to speak. His extensive financial experience, his varied knowledge in the higher branches of commerce, has beea invaluable in the Senate in past years. As Speaker of the Upper House and Cabinet Minister, he was honored by his confreres; and now in the quieter private member- ship compelled by less vigorous health, he holds the esteem and respect of all who know him.
Senator McClellan was a member of the New Brunswick government before con- federation. In the Senate, although a Liberal, he stands among the independent men, one who votes frankly and fearlessly as he believes, without thought of party.
There are a number of such men of in- dependent views and vote, prominent among whom are DeBoucherville and Masson, the former an ex-lieutenant-gover- nor, a man of high character and sound, independent thought; the latter also an ex-lieutenant-governor, a patriot, a man of splendid action and attainment, a scholar and literateur, and one of the most highly ranked men in the Upper Chamber.
Hon. Wm. Miller was also one of the men who actively engaged in promoting confederation; and as a clever member of the bar, and one who has thorough knowledge of Parliameatary procedure, he has rendered, and still renders, good service in the Senate. He is a fluent and easy speaker.
Yet another of the high ranked men who honored the senate in 67 is Hon. C. W. Allan, a man well known in Ontario and the Queen City, and one highly re- spected as a scholar and a Christian genile- man. Senator Allan is a Fellow of the Royal Zeoological Society, President of artist and historical societies, Chaucellor of Trinity University. Asa past Speaker of the Senate, his portrait together with that of Sir David MacPherson form twe of the fine series of oils that line the walls of the Senate corridors.
One of the men we cannot leave out in this list is the Hon. Robert Reid, who wae called to the Senate from the Commons three or four years after Confederation, and who has proved an invaluable guard- ian of the people’s interest. He is wise in judgment, clear in thought, fine in temper and his opinion on any que-tion is highly regarded by members of both Houses:
These are a few of the older members of the Senate who by past service and present usefulness are well worthy of high place in the regard of the people. For let it be strongly impressed that these are not men of the past only but of an active present, who by wealth of their experience combined with present in- tellectual activity are rendering good service to the country.
Leaving the confederation fathers we come the men who most gladly give them
recesdience,—the members of the Cab- inet. First the Premier, Sir Mackenzie,
Bowell, whom no one ever thinks of call- ing old, despite the snowy hair, and allott- ed span of years. Alert, active, full of zeal, vigorous and enthusiastic as a boy, with broad commercial outlock and prozressive thought, he may be safely takea as a type
zt —e
of what matured manhood may and should be. >
Hon. Mr. Angers, Minister of Agricul- tnre; Sir Frank Smith, and Hon. Mr. Ferguson, members without portfolios, are the Premier’s aids on either side. Surely these gentlemen can by no means be rank- ed as lacking power and ability. Each is knowa as a man of mark, who has made the impress of his life upon the country’s welfare to its good.
For we must remember that the Senate, to be representative, must contain men of many interests, not statesmen alone, nor yet men of judicial and scholarly attain— ments only. These are desirable, and the Chamber holds splendid types of each. But it must contain also men of finance who know how to handle questions of trade and commerce, men versed in in- terests of stock raising and farming and manufacturing, men of science; and busi- ness men of even smaller interests, —all these are required to render service to their country, and all these may be found within the Chamber walls.
Of late years much new blood has been introduced into the membership, and many of the menibers barely touch I|:fe’s prime, while not a few are years below i'.
The nestor of the Senate, Hon. Mr. Wark, is in bis 92nd year; the youngest member has not reached the fourth de- cade, so that half a century lies between them. The one judges with a wide reach of years behind him, the other yet looks up the hill of possibilities. This also is well,
But of the younger members we shall speak in our next sketch.

Seize the Opportunity At Once,
When the opportunity occurs to escape from death ae lunatics would refuse to do it. But there are many consumptive people lying on death beds who can esca the threatened doom if they will take Miller’s Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil. Some are not aware of such a preparation, and if they die it will be the result of ignor- ance. Those who know that Miller’s Emulsion makes new blood and enables the consumptive to get strength to over— come the disease are self-destroyers if they still neglect to obtain the life-giving remedy. Miller’s Emulsion is the great nerve streugthener and blood maker, and cures Goughs, Colds, Bronchitis, Scrofula, and all Lung agections. In Big Bottles 50¢ and $1 rt all Drug Stores.
Physicians
prescribe Scott’s Emulsion of Cod-liver Oil and Hypophos- phites because they find their patients can tolerate it for a long time, as it does not upset the stomach nor derange the Cigestion like the plain oil,
Scott’s Emulsion is as much easier to digest than the plain oil as milk is easier to digest than butter. Besides, the fish- fat taste is taken out of the oil, and it is almost palatable. The way sickly children, emaciated, anzmic and consumptive adults,
ain flesh on Scott’s Emulsion is very remarkable.
