THE LEGISLATURE

Thoughtful readers of our Legislative

reports must have been pained and griev- ed with the scenes of disorder, the acrimonious bickering, the open dis-

used language toward each other and tc-

ward the Speaker which ought not to be tolerated for a moment in any deliberative

assembly. Apart from the shocking disorder and exhibition of angry passion displayed during the discussions in the House we cannot shut our eyes to the fact that there have been extraordinary

and surprising developments in regard to the attitude of two members. We

ly master of the situation politically, inas- much as his vote cast against the Govern- ment must have defeated the Government and given the Conservative party control of the Legislature.

Under these conditions we cannot won-

der that members of the Conservative

party are both angry and indignant. That party has been now along time in opposi- tion iind having by strenuous efforts in

successive by-elections won their- way up to a majority in the House now iind the cup snatched from their lips by the deser- tion of Mr. Pineau. J ust at the moment when his single vote has become suiilcient to turn the scale and give a triumph to his party that vote is turned over to the party whom Mr. Pineau was elected to oppose. We are not told what are the grave and weighty reasons which so

quickly and at such a critical moment have brought about this _change of attitude. Mr. Pineau has lot by public meeting among his constituents, or by any state- ment through the public press, or by speech in the Legislature acquainted the

a reason, and permit the public to judge of its suiliciency. Many will think that the frank and honorable course forzhim, ifhe had honestly changed his political opinions, would have been to have at once resigned his seat and called upon' his constituents to decide upon the validity of such reasons

as he had to oder, and if they thought his

opportunity to elect another in his stead.

Session' Members have repeatedly P Mr. Pineau has not taken this coume, and

he can hardly be surprised if the leaders

should place an unfavorable audi severe construction upon his motives and con- duct.
