(Srecrat to raw Examiner. | Oirawa, March 22.--Iathe Houee of Commons, Laurier continued the debate on the address. Referring to the Plebiscite he said the pledge bad been made by the Liberal party in convention that a pleb'scite should be taken, and a plebiscite had been taken. The result was that only 23 per cent of the people had pronounced in favor of‘ prohibition, and as the leader of the Liberal party and with a full sense of the responsibility of what he was saying, he had no ‘hesitation in saying that there was never any intention in adopting pro- hibition nnless a majority of the electorste pronounced in favor of it. With reference to the fast Atlantic ser- vice he admitted that the Government had done nothing; but he hoped it would be able to do something some ‘ime. He took up the Washington Commis. sion and defended ihe commission from the charges made against it of takiuga very long time to do very little. Foster made an able address treating of the Grit combinations, the trade and tariff policy, and their juggling of accounts to conceal thetrue deficit. Tariff reduction, he showed, was only three one huodred’s of one per cent, Martial Law at Skaguay. Victoria, B. C., March 18.—Steemer Amur, froa. Skagway, brings news of riote over a railway strike.
