_ A representative of Tun GUARDIAN A
chanced to stroll into the seed department
of Messrs. Geo. Carter & Co’s establish-
mentyesterday morning and found many
farmers from the country busy selecting
their spring seed. The clerks were un-
usually busy and the hum of business was
quite marked.
Loch IEGISIAIURE.
(Continued From the First Pagell
question was aserious question and there
are serious matters pending on the
resignation. The resignation of Mr.
\Visc had been in either the hands of the
Speaker of the House or In tli_e hands of
the Leader, in violation of the laws of
this country.
Hon. Jas. R. McLean then arose and
took Mr. Campbell to task for usurping
the privileges of the. House.
Mr. Speaker said that in reply to Mr.
Campbell he wished to say that he had
only asked if there was a. precedent.
Mr. Campbell said that he did not
intend to allow any man to 'assume the
role of Kruger and dictate his procedure
on the Iioor of the House._
_ Hon. Mr. Farquharson called the
Speaker-‘s attention to the discourtesy of
a number of the members of the Opposi-
tion. If they would turn up the Journals
they would find that the present action of
the House is in order.
Mr. Campbell said that he had been on
the floor of the House for 27 years and
never, in all that time had he seeua
similar piece of unparliamentary proceed-
ure. The Leader of the Government
might assume the role of Kruger and do
business in the dark and behind the
scenes. When the House was refused
such information as was asked at this
hour there was something wrong.
Mr. Shaw, said that he hadreacl the
Patriot, the organ of the Liberal party,
and in it he read the announcement that
Mr. \Vise had lplaced his resignation
in the hands of the Speaker.
Hon. Mr. Gordon had iiiqiiired the date of
Mr. Wise’s resignation. If it is dated as
it is said to be dated the Government of
this country is guilty of negligence. If the
Speaker of the House get the resignation
he neglected to notify the Lieut. Gover-
nor and consequently neglected his duty.
Mr. Peters then rose to speak but the
heat of the argument. between the
Speaker and Mr. Shaw was so great that
he failed to get ii proper hearing.
The Speaker tlien,'_saicl the returns of
bye-elections would be laid before the
House. _
Hon. Mr. Farquharsc-n then submitted
the returns of the bye-elections held in
Mr. A. A. McLean was theh ` introduced
to the House by P on. D. Gordon and Mr.
Cyrus Shaw. -
Mr. A. P. Prowse was introduced to the
House by Hon D. Gordon and Mr. M.
McKinnon. `
Mr.Shaw 'asked for the writ and
returns of the election for the 1st district
of Prince County. _
Mr. Campbell claimed that if Mr. Pineau
was in the city he should take his seat.
Hon. Mr. Farquharson said that as Mr.
Pineau was not in the city it was not nec-
essary to submit the writ and returns. It
would be time enoi; gh when he appeared to
claim the seat. »- `
Mr. Shaw-How does the Leader of the
in the city ? i '

Counties which were read by the Clerk. I u r 
Government know that Mr. Pineau is not

the decision ofthe Speaker' be sustained?"
The following' members voted to sustain
the Speakers decision: Farquharson, Mc-
Millan, McLean, (J. 'R. ,l Richards, Sinclair
McLauchlin, Mc.\'utt, Rogers. Prowse, (L.
E.), Peters, (A.), Forbes, McWilliams,
Reid'-13.
The following members voted against
the Speaker-’s decision: Gordon, McDon-
ald, (A. J.), McDonald, (J. E2), McDonald,
(J. A.), Arsenault, McKinnon, Birch,
Kickham, Deslioches, McLean, (A. .-1.),
Campbell, Prowse, (\V-. H.)-13.
Mr. Shaw-Mr. Speaker, I draw your
attention to the tact that Mr. Wise is
votinlt and I deny the Clerk the right to
omit his name. The journals of the House
do not contain Mr. Wise’s resignation and
he is still a. member.
Mr. McLean claimed that u.ccordin`g to
the statute Mr. \Vise was still a represen-
tative ofthe people. No entiy had been
made, and they as representatives, want
to know why his vote is Iiot recognized.
Mr. Peters called the Speakers attention
to t-he fact that there were 13 member’s on
the floor at once and said that the resig-
nation would be put on the journals to-
morrow. ‘
_ Mr. Shaw-It cannot be put upon the
Journals tomorrow. Is Mr. Wise going
°° “Wei Will You as Speaker assume the
reSi:><>n=ibility~ or ruling that Mr. Wise
'is not going tovote? - -‘
Mr._ Speaker--I ,will assume the re-
sponsibility of my duty as Speaker of this
House in connection with Parliamentary
usages. <
Mr. McLean-I would ask ,Mu speaker
to give a decision. =
Mr- Speaker--I have received the,
resignation of Mr. Wise and consider it
legal. _
Mr; Campbell-We are going to make
you shoulder the responsibility of doing
one thing or the other. _
Mr. Shaw-Are we to infer that.
on themorrow you will give a decision?
If so we will wait right here. _
f The Speaker then commenced to read
His Honor’s speech but the Opposition ob-`
.lected as they were all standing on the
floor of the House.
Mr M. McKinnon said that there was
no need of all this confusion. He' asked
the Speaker to recount the vote and ren-
der a decision.
Amid applause Mr. Wise arose to ad-
dress the House. He claimed that on the
25th day of February-»_A1; this juuct-
ure hir. Rogers of Charlottetown moved
the standing order to clear the House and
the large assembly of spectators_disper-
sed.
As soon as the orderwas given Mr. Shaw
arose in .his place and commenced to
speak but the Speaker ruled him out of
order. The House then sat with closed
doors until six o'clock when it adjourned
until three o’clock this afternoon. Be-
fore adjournment Mr. Wis`e’s resignation
was laid on the table of the House.
