Current

A year ago, after the close of the first session, Mr. Speaker Duffy was the subject of compil- lnents for his fairness, impartial- lly and good judgment in the dis- charge of his duties as presiding officer of the House. ‘But. for one ortwo incidents which we be- Iievc to ‘have been ill-advised and wrong. we would ibe disposed to ex icnd to him n similar commenda- tion, in regard to [I19 session Just closed. As n ‘barrister in good standing he is surely acquainted with that primary principle of Bri- tish as well as Canadian law, THAT NO MAN CAN IBE ADJUDGED GUILTY 0f misdomeanour or wrong.

Comment

lSir Erskine May says ho may preserve good order, “By culling members to order, WHERE THE OFFENSE 14S ‘COMMITTED IN ‘HIIS PRESENCE." Now an elec- ted representative of the people holds both a sncred and charmed position. II .1’ ho commits a breach of the rules he may bs called to order, lbllt ‘he is assumed to be u gentleman, AND NOT A CON- TINUOUS OFFENDER. He muy minke u mistake, which the very best are liable to. and‘ it is the Speaker's right and duty to cor- rect that mistwke, if "committed in his presence." But he has nu right to assume that another mis- take wiii he mode tomorrow, AND TO COIRlR-‘ECT THiAT OFFENC-Ifl WiHlDOH HAS NOT BEEN COM- MITTED 0R. EVEN (JONTEMI- PLATED, either "in his presence" or otherwise. It is not. one of the cuurtesies of a speaker to extend his admonitions In this way to members, treating them as if they were school boys, and forwhlch we can find no precedent in any other lpilrliament. Anything which msy possibly tails place “DURING TIIIIE ‘IIDNIIAINDER OF THE SESSION," has not ibflfll] "Cont. MIITTED IN IHIlS PRESENCE," and has not as yet come under his control.

What was further in constant violation of the rules of Parlia- ment and its debates, was the con- stant stihclfs and discussions in relation‘ to the press. When a member is misrepresented or mla- reportsd he mlayMm a question of

uraph produced and read for the purpose of denial, BUT NOTHING MORE. unless It is of sufficiently gra-ve a character to call for in- vestigation and further action. In I877 the HonMr. Mills afterwards Minister of Justice, arose in the Canadian Parliament to read, dur-

letter opinions expressed by Sir Alexander Gait, published in a newspaper. when “The speaker ihterrruptsd him and questioned the propriety cf such u course." and which Bourlnot ds- clares to bc "a decision entirely in accordance with the English rule. It is premitied however" to quote from a paper, on which he pro poses to found a motion. Despite’ llhess established parliamentary rules and restrictions. day in and day out, almost without intermis- sion, the business of this country was neglected, and the most valu- able time wasted in attacks, sev- eral oi‘ them shamefully untrue and unfounded, upon the press and those connected with it.
