HE CIIARLOTTETOWN GUARDIAN A SUNSliiNE.SONCi~ ,_ RUS!-IBD 'WITT-l~ORDE.Rl; _

0UR GOVERNMENTAL SYSTEM.

Our system of representative govern

lnentis our boast, beiull ‘\’°“if N WF' fectiuiheory as any that exists todlyy and yet a veryiittlo consideration must _disclose that it has very serious draw- backs. Sonie at these were referred to by

IR. I.. Borden, K. C. in an address before

the students of Toronto University a few

days ago. ._

One oi the drawbacks is that a bare

majority In Parliament not only nuumes to rule the country, but also to exclude one half of the population from any poll-_ tical honor, from anyjudieial prelermeut, and even from the smallest petty oliloo,-

empioyment or contract.

But this is not all. Under the pall-y

system as it is administered we are not ruled by a Parllanicnt representing all the people, but by hull a Parllani ent representlngnllttle more, or sometimes less than hall the people, and this domi~' naiit huif of Parliament wholly controlled

iiy a secret committee which is culled the Cabinet.

Everybody knows iliat tho majority in

Parllanient. carry into effect the resolves, ukuses or decrees of the Cabinet. The

public debates may amuse or instruct the people. but they never change n vote. The Cabinet is omnipotent and also irres-

ponsible. save to the House, which body it controls by its power to bestow olllces, contracts and favors.

Moreover, if he be a strong man, the

Premier may and not infrequently does absolutely control the Cabinet-. He selects his colleagues at the outset and removes tiieni at his pleasure, appointing them to oillcc if the separation is u friendly one, or relegating them to private lilo if it is otlierwise. In such case we have really au autoeraey under t-he guise of respon-

sible, representative government.

These conditions would not be possible

ilint for the party system. Under our

present system of hide-bound pariylsur

the electors vote for t e party n e, andthe candidate once elected follows his leader blindly knowing that only in this way can he secure the patronage ol his county -or any change of oilloe or pro~ ferment for himself. _ Pariiamentiary Govarnmsut is yet on

its trial, and it is not working well. The obvious remedy isgreaiar lodppeudanec iii the electorate. and theueturn- of independent members to Parliament. Take the casa ol.our own Province. What.

in the world have we tc gain by the! triumph of one party over the otheri 5 It we had fpurindepenaerit members

representing the island at Ottawa they oould work together for Island intcreatrr much more effectively than they can at present. No one of them would bo. expected to be n thick-and~thin rupporter or opponent of the Government.

As it is. we have four represeulatlvesh three of whom vote against the Govern-|

nient on all strictly party questions audi only one of the four has any influence ini regard to the making of appointments, or i in getting a grant for any public service.

We may not get any less in the way;

were Goveminent supporters, but it isi clear that in many ways Island affsirsi would he conducted much ,more ini accordance \\lth the \vell»nnderatoo<ii wishes oi the people It our reprcaanta-' tives were non-partisan. i

'lhe question is shall wego on as we;

have been going, or shall we make av change! From i878 to 1880 no Liberai eoultlbe appointed to a federal odlt;e,i

from a 810 postmasl/ership, up to a Sen-y ntorship, Juilgeshlp or, Governorship. l Since 1896. now ten years, and for howl much longer we know not, all Conservat i ives are shut out from prefermeni. ‘

With independent representatives nt f

Ottawa. we might have had n better' win- ter servico, had the improved telegraphi service sooner, had ' better appointmentsi to orlicc in at least several instances and I had the Charlottetown railway station l

oi public grants than we wou'd if all four .
