THE DAIL) EXAMINER CHARLOTTETOWN, MAY 49, 1900. 5

PROVINCIAL LEGISLATURE.

A Lively Session—Mr. Wise Appears

and Causes a Sensation,

After the reading of the Lieutenants Goveruor’s speech, as reported by THE Examiner of yesterday, God Save the Queen was sung, three cheers were given for His Honor, and His Honor and suite departed.

Hon. Mr. Farquharson then proceeded to submit a bill.

Hon. Mr. Gordon objected that no busi- ness should be done until the writs of election for the three vacancies created in the course of the last vear had first been read and those members elected who were present had been sworn in.

Kon. Mr. Farquharson eaid that the Government preferred to take the other course ; the writs would be tabled later.

Mesere. Shaw and Campbell centended | that the new members present should, in | justice to their constituencies, be intro- {duced before other business was trans- acted, and read precedentsin support of

their contention.

}

; Mr. A. Peters maintained that the Leader of the Government was pursuing a | proper course. Even last yeara lot of business was done before the new members were admitted.

Finally the Speaker ruled that the Op- position was in accord w:th Parliamentary usage, and proceeded to inform the House that be had received the resignation of Mr. Wise.

Hon. Mr. Gordon asked the date of the resigaation; and the Speaker asked for a precedent to justify a reply to the question.

Mr. J. A. McDonald called attention to the fact that the Leader of the Oppo sition was entitled to courteous treatment at the hands of the Speaker.

Mr, Campbel! remarked that there must be something dark behind the scenes, when the Speaker hesitated te give the date of the resignation. He contended that the Opposition was entitled to cour- teous treatment, and no: te treatment such as might be expected from Krager.

Mr. Sbaw referred to the fact that The Patriot, the Liberal organ, had reported that Mr. Wise resigned last February. If this had been so there must have been a reckless breach of trust or a criminal breach of the law ; for the law expressly states thatthe Speaker shall forthwith notify the Lieutenant Governor who shall within seven days issue the writs for an election to fill the vacancy. He aeked the Speaker to lay Mr, Wise’s resignation upon the table of the House, in order that the Rouse might be enabled to judge as to who is to be blamed about the matter. By the way, continued Mr. Shaw,! observe the rejected of Murray Harbor at the door ot the Speaker’s room givirg the Speaker law.

Mr. Campbell strongly contended that the resignation should be tabled.

At this juncture, Hon. Mr. F'srquharson moved that the writ of the election in the tourth district of Queeu’s County be now The moticn carried, the writ was | read, Mr. A. A. McLean was admitted,

took the oath — was introduced to Mr. } Speaker by Messrs Gordon and Sbaw and took hie seat.

The writ of the election in the 4th Dit= trict of King’s was then read, and Mr.A. P, Prowee took the oath and his seat, being introduced to the Speaker by Hon. Mr. Gordon and Mr. M. McKinnon.

It was propored that the Speaker should read acopy of the Lieutenant-Governor’s speech.

Mr. Shaw called attention to the fac that all the writs of election had not vet been submitted to the House. TLere was that of the First District of Prince.

Hon. Mr. Farquharson contended that as the member elect was no: present 1! was not necessary to tubmit the writ.

Hon. Mr. Campbell contend2d that the writ should nevertheless be tabled for the information of the Hcuse. He was ea- forcing this contention, when,—

Mr. Wise appeared and took his seat

the range 1s

amidcheers and applanse, at the same time sending a letter to the Speaker.

Mr. Shaw aske : “‘How does the Leader knew that Mr. Pineau ie not here?” and moved that tbe writ of the eleciion in First Prince be read.

Mr. A. Peters contended that twenty~ hours’ notice of the motion must be given,

Mr. Shaw pointed ent that this was not a eubstantive matter. The matter of the writs of election for the vacant seate in the House was now actually in progress, and therefore notice was not essential

Mr. A A McLean showed that the Gov- ernment should give notice ot all vacancies in all returns of elections. He contended that it was the duty of the Speaker to ask the Clerk to read the returns for the first } district of Prince as he had read the re turns of the others.

Mr.Cam pbell argued that the writ should now be produced, even though the mem- ber elect was not present.

Mr. Shaw appealed to the Spesker for a ruling.

The Speaker ruled that the motion | was not admissable, as it conflicted with the rule which required 24 hours notice of motion,

Mr. Shaw—I appeal from your ruling.

The House then divided, the following members voting to sustain the Speak- er’s ruling, viz: Farqubarson, Mc- | Millan, Maclean, (J.R) Richards, Sin- | | clair, McLauchlia, McNutt, Rogers, | Prowse, (L. BE.) Peters, (A.) Forbes, Mc~ Willame, Reid— 13.

The following members voted against the Speaker’s ruling : Gordon, Shaw, A J McDonald, J E McDonald, J A McDonald, Arrenault, McKinnon, Birch, Kickham, DeeRoches, A A McLean, Campbell, A P Prowse—13.

Mr. Wise stood up with the latter ; and Mr. Shaw calied atiention to the fact that the Clerk had not included his name on the list of “' those who had voted, and denied the right of the clerk te«trike Mr. Wise’s name off the list of members.

Mr. A.A. McLean read the law and contended that the House had a right to see the resizgoaticn and to judge as to whe- theror not it had been regularly and pro- perly drawn.

Mr. Campbell asked the Speaker if he would dare to take the responsibility of treating Mr. Wise as a stranger in the House and of ruling that he hadno vote.

The Speaker said that he hesitated te do so because there were on the floor of the House a number of strangers, and because Mr. Wise had been an oid friend of his.

Mr, Shaw—That may be no credit to Mr. Wise. (laughter),

Mr. M McKinuon contended that the Opposition were entitled tojuet treatment, and that there was no need of coafusion about the matter.

Ail this time the members of the Oppo- sition, including Mr. Wise, remained standing as to when ‘hey voted.

The Speaker essayed to read a copy of the Lieutenant-Governor’s speech; but the Opposition would not permit this until the Spesker bad taken the responsibility of excluding Mr. Wise.

Mr. Wise began to speak on his own be- nalf, when Hon. Mr. Rogers moved the standing order.

Mr. J.A. McDonald protested that it was quiie unneceseasy to turn out all who were not members of the House, and hoped the motion would be withdrawr.

Mr. «ogers declined, and then foliowed the withdrawal of the great crowd of visitors. But Mr. Wise did mot withdraw and held his seat until the ciose of the setting at six o’clock.

Before adjournment, resignation of Mr. Wise was laid upon the table of the House in accordance with the demand of the Op- position.
