Gordon S. lHarrington Minister of Works and lMines. introduced a ‘bill respecting “the tenure of office of certain of- ficers." Both bills were identical with the bills introduced at the last session and later vetoed by the legislative council.

The status of the legislative council was the same when the present session opened as before the Rhodes government came into power, the full bench of the iSupreme Court of Nov-a soon; h“. ing divided evenly on the question of the government's right ‘to ap- point additional members suffici- out to sivs a majority for the abol. ition bill.
