Following the Leader of the Op- position in the debate on the Draft Aildross ill the Legislature Wed Ilfiriiliiy» March 18th, Premier Stew- art said:

Mr. Speaker, I want to asolnnl’ yell nnd tile lllcnlbers of the llou-se that I am not performing a ‘IIIQITPDQT- functo-ry duty bllt that I speak with the uinlost sincerity when I tendor ‘to the mover and secoader lny wa-rulest congratulations ulpon the splendid way they have performed their several duties. The move-r of this resolution (Mr. Tantonl) did

to git-t a iplibllf! reputation; he had a reputation as a publ‘le man prev- ious to that, alld is known in this

lieils in (tanada and resolutions similar to this have lbeen moved this House very

fitting, was ever delivered when we have listened to from the honorable member -for the First District of Prince this forenoon. I nilso oun- gra-tlllllte tho seconlder, (Mr. lilln- tcr) and in him we have a. gentle- man the typo of wllolu we would like to see lllore lln tllli-s country; a young farlller ‘WHO colllllltrnctld at tho bolltolll of the ladder and is steadily lnaklllg -good.

Another ‘thing that this liouse can look M11011 with pride, apart from party politics altogtlller. is that or the first time -in tlllQ history of iris Legislature this rosoiutiou has been supported at its inception by a returned soldier. iNDMallse.) Other platters have been men- tioned in lwllich I wish briefly to concur. Iletlelreuco was made to his Honor the [lieutenant Governor.

I would also like to echo the re- ferences nrade to the unfortunate demise of Senators Yeo and lMrur‘ plly. I do not iiilllllk that 'I can add anything to the oIu-logles paid them already espeoilitlly by m-y hon. friend the Leader of the Opposition, any ‘more than to say that l heart- lly concur. in Senator Yco wv had ‘the exam-pie of a unique life history; a mun who perhaps bod served his country a greater ‘length of time and 'wit-h greater fldelit/y than anyone Iin the past history of Canada, apart altogether from any political affiliation.
