The residents of the jue Road and the Loyalist Road would, in addition, be placed jistance of ao i in direct comm unica- Road Cheese Fac- tory, to the mutual advantage of them- new Beck within a short tion with the Winsloe selves and the factory. The farmers on the east side of the river, including those on the Winsloe and Brackley Point Roads, would also be considerably benefited, as they would then be enabled to ude the new and shorter route without the trouble of going all the way round to Poplar Is- ani Bridge. Iadeed, by the new arrange- mnt a road would be secured to them by access to the which they could obain river, which, we understand, they now cannot except by crossing the shore farms, a privilege allowed them by the owners of these farms, but which may at avy time be withdrawn. We see no reason why the people of these important sections of the country should not have their claim for this pub- lic work favorably considered by the Gov- eroment. The river at the place in ques- tion ie quite narrow, and the cost would not be great, while the saving of repairs on the Poplar Island Bridge would be considerable, as a very Jarge portion of the traffi: would unquestionably be diverted to the new road. should go to work at once, and either call a public meeting to discuss the question, or obtain petitions te the Legislature, and then see that their representatives ob- tain the necessary grant from the Govern- ment. The interested parties ea MAY OR SHALL! As the Guardian seems to question the high legal authority quoted yesterday by THe Examines, we may remark that it was “Maxweli on Statutes,” pp. 295-6. If the Guardian can show that we have misquoted this authority, or left out ony- thing which would imply a construction different from statutes legally placed upon “ may,” it is at liberty to do so. But what bas the Guardian done? It has quoted from the Canadian Interpreta- tion Act the following: ‘** The expression ‘shall’ shall be construed as imperative may’ as permissive.” that which isin certain the word and the expression ‘ But it has left out these important words. “Tn every act of Parliament context otherwise requires.” the facts and uniess the circum stances is connection with the passage of the Manitoba Act into consideration, tak- that act—* shall prejudicially affect any right,” etc., Now, taking al! ing the context of nothing * an appeal shal! lie to the Governor Gen- eral in Council,” etc..—we say that, as in the Scott Act case cited yesterday, the true of the word that which re- and legal interpretation “may” in the statute is quires the Parliament of Canada “to make remedial laws for the due execution of the provisions of this section,” etc. The Guar- dian has signally failed to show that, instance, the context does not “ otherwise require”; and we may in this take it for granted that there is, from the legal point of view, really no question about the point. As. Professor Shaw, of the Methodist Theological College, re- marked a few days ago: “Given, on the one band, @ grievance judicially declared, and, on the orhet hand,a remedy which may be appl ed, and every principle of Jaw declares that “may” simply empowers the Dominioa Parliament to intervene, and the grievance judicially declared creates the obl.gation for its relief.” The Guardian intimatea that Tue Examiver sees that its whole case rest’ upon the interpretation of the word “may.” Not so. We have constantly maintained that there is binding upon Parliamect ahigher Jaw than that con- taived in the lettercr word of a statute,— the law which imposes upon Parliament the duty of keeping faith with those with whom a “ Parliamen‘ary compact” has been made. In support of this positior, we quote again the words of Professor Clark, of Trinity, College, Tsronto : “If a man, or a community, or a Gov- ernment has powerto do anything, it is responsible. I maintain that if the Gov- ernment has the power given to it, the Government is bound to consider whether the occasion has arisen for it to exercise it. Idenot say, that the occasion has arisen; that is another question. If the time for exercising that: power has come, A a = nme ———————$S$S THURSDAY, MARCH 5, 1896. DAILY EXAMINER io ie then I say that the Government is bound to exervise it.” But what is the position of the Guardian? Upon the narrow ground that “may” -in the statute ie merely premissive, it would have the Parliament of Canada shirk the duty of remedying a grievance declared to exist by the highest authority in the realm and treat with coutempt the order of the Queen in Council. The Guardian’s position is not an admirable one.

However, we can console ourselves with the thought that, in only {wo years more, we will share in the glory of making the political funeral of the Grit Czar and his boodle brigade one of the largest affairs of the kind ever seen in any of the provinces. The weekly revival meetings which the Patrons held in the Cherry Valley school last fall sudden'y ceased some time ago, and it looks very much as though the Fatrons ere have become disorganized. Or have they at length realized that toeir weapons of war, wind end smoke, are in- electual in competing with Tory tor- pedoes ? At one of its meeting: last moath, our debating society discussed the question : “Should the proposed Southern Railway be built?” A large number of young men from the Puint and other places were present at which Mr. Martin Mclanis ably presided. Messrs Solomon Cavanagh and Ernest Nelson argued. against the railway o1 the grounds that it would not pay when built, that the people of the south do not need any better means of travelling or getting their produce to market than those they have now, and also that the money it would cost to build this road ought to be given to our local Government, «bo could make it do more good for the farmers than the railway would. The speakers in favor of building the railway were Elward Fraser, the talented young teacher of Cherry Valley schoel, Matthias Praught, Seymour Young and F. M. McInnis, who dealt in detail with the ditferent phases of the question, first show- ing the just grounds we have for asking the Goveroment to build this road, the amount due us as our share of the over- expenditare on public works in the Do- minion, and bow unjust it isthat the people of the south should have to contri- bute towards furnishing railway advan- tages to other partsof the Island and elsewhere, and yet be denied those eame facilities themselves — facilities which they would be enjoying today but for the treachery and hypoeriey of the grits in days gone by. (Note.—A forcible exprer- sion of their sppreciation of this treat- ment will be shown by the electors in the big majority they will give Mr. Martin in the comjng contest.) In their sever:] speeches the speakers shomed, beyond the shadow of_adoubt, the many great advan- tazes = to be derived by the people of the south, and others, when this railway is built—a_ railway that will be of much more benefit to the farmers than to give the cost of building it to Petera & Co., to be spent in buying whiskey and kittens at e ection time. At the conclusion of the debate the chairman gave -his decision in favor of the Railway. A vote of thanks was then tendered Mr. Mcionis for his impartial decision. The members then selected a subject for next evening, gave three ring- ing cheers for the Southern Railway. and di-persed. The members will discuss the Patron movement at their next meetings Rex.

Nov27—1354w 3m OTTAWA CORRESPONDENCE, The End of the Bubget’ Debate—Mr. Davies Called Down by Mr, Speaker—Newspaper Correspondents, False Reports.—Hon. Mr. Ferguson in Ontario, Ko, The Budget Debate in the House of Commons ended on Saturday moroing in the tamesit manner. Since the 3ist of January this question had precedence on Government day2, and although long speeches were made by Liberal supporters aud short sharp rejoinders given by Con- servativer, the general trend of the speeches was decidedly flat. Mr. Davies, of Qucen’s, P. E. 1., took the floor on Friday night following Mr. McGillivray, the new member for North Ontario, who is destined to be one of the good debaters of the House, if he contitfues in Parliament. Mr. Davies was not, in the opinion of the writer, up to his usual form; but he had a slim House and galleries to talk to, and that always has a depressing effect on any speaker. He was followed by Mr. Mills of Annapolis, who surprised aad pleased his friends and angered his opponents on the Liberal benches, by pouring in hot shot into the Leader of the Opposition agd his friends— Fielding and Longley, of Nova Scotia. Mr, Mills quoted from speeches of Mr. Laurier, at Oakville in Canada and at Boston in the Un‘ted States in which that gentleman had spoken against secession at the former place and in favor of it at the latter. Mr. Laurier bad denounced secession as abominable treason at Boston; and Mr. Mills made a point by aeking how the Leader of the Opposition could have, as rumored, invited Mr, Fielding to be a member of his cabinet, when that gentleman had publically advocated secession in Nova Scotia at the election of 1886? Mr. Davies, with his usual im=- pétuosity, arose to a point of order in behalf of his friend Mr. Fieldingand asked that Mr. Mills should withdraw ‘the foul slander against the Lrader of the Nova Scotra government. But the speaker ruled that he could not interfere in any referercs made to gentlemen outside the House of Commons. Then Mr. Hazen, of St. John, N. B., called on Mr. Davies to retract what he said about Mr. Mills, and the speaker sustained the contention of Mr. Hazen, and Mr. Daaies had ‘to withdraw his expression. Mr. Mills continued «his speech and aroused the ire of Mr. Flint, woo was also called to order by the speak- er, and bad to withdraw his statements. This made the Government supporters feel good, and Mr. Mills finished his speech without further interrupt‘on. The Op- position have alowed the financial policy of the Government to pass without mov- ing an amendment, trusting that the Manitoba school question would give them a better chance to defeat the minis- try. Buf the recklessness of the grit news} aper Correspondents has had the effect effect of bring out Mr. Devlin, of Ottawa, in favor of the remedial bill, and his defec- tion will prove but the beginning of the changes that will take place in the Liberal ranks. This incident is another example of how reckless newspaper men afe doing injury. Some years ago the newspaper was regarded Ly the . public as a reliable means of obtaining information on politi- cal and other questions; but lately the competition among newspapers to obtain sensational articles hagydeveloped a class of correspondente wlio are © regardless of truth and will publish the most unfound ed statements, even if they have to contra- dict them the next day. Anyone who takes up the filesofthe leading papers of the day and looks over the reperts:in them — especially those contributed by the corres- pondents of the grit papers at Ottawa— mast be struck with the diametrically op- posite statements they contain. The effect of this species of journalism will be most disastrous tothe business of publishing the news. People who formerly bought newepapers to find out what is taking place will be disgusted and will refuse to spend their money for amy newspaper— classing the good and bad together—-and the comsequence will be that the depend- ence of the publishers—the reading public —will'cease to buy any newspapers. This matter is one of moment to every publish- er in the country; #nd al! those who wish to ree this business flourish should by every possible means frown down all mis- leading and lying reporting. The Press Gallery at Ottawa has greatly lowered in tone during the past few vears, There are two or-three representatives of the leading Grit papers that have lost al] respect for decency and who lie as re- gularly as they eat and the Conservative p#pers have fallen to some extent into the same bad habit. A rumor is started by some irres;onsible person, it is heard by a newspaper re, orter, who without taking any trouble to find out its truth or falsity, rushes it off to his newspaper. Short’y afterwards the truth of the matter comes out and has alsoto be sent. Of course this fills up the newspapers and makes them sensational; but what will be the effect on the reading public? Nothing buat complete disgust with all newspapers and what they contain. Hon. Mr..Mills of Bothwell ended the debate and the motion to go .into supply being put, Mr. Speaker prepared to leave the chair; but then a most amusing incident toox place. The deputy sergeant-at-arnis bad left his place for a moment and gone outside the House, and there was no one to remove the mace from the table of the House,and Mr. Speaker had to stand waiting until one of the pages, exercising all his boyish strength, removed the in- signia of Koyalty and succeeded in p!ac- ing it on the hooks below the table. Then Mr. Speaker was enabled to vacate the chair and the House. got regularly into committee. Hon. Mr. Ferguson, accompanied by Mv. Powell of Westmorland, paid a visit last week to the Riding of West Ontario where a convention was being held to nominate a candidate in the. interest of the Conservative party. Hon. Mr. Fergu- son delivered an able epeech lasting over an hour and made a most favorable inipression on an Ontario audience. The fact thathe was selected by the minis- try to represent them at an important méeting in an Ontario constituency—one now represented by s0 promtinené a-gentle: - map ap the Liberal ranks as Mr. J.D gar—shows thet Mr. Ferguson’s great ability is being recognized by-his col- leagues. The two pictures ‘painted by Mr. Bell- Smith, representing scenes in comnection with the death of Sir John Thompsoa, now being exhibited at the National Art Gallery here, are attracting a great deal of attention and hundreds of visitors have seen them daily. Inthe opinion of the writer the picture of Her Majesty placing awreath on thecoffin of the deceased Premier is the most eff.ctive of the two. The poriraits, judging by that of those known to the writer, are very correct, especially that of Sir Charles Tupper, sr.; and the effect of the: light and shade is well brought out. The ArtGallery has apparently lost some of the best pictures formerly exhibited there; but a number of splendid worke of art: ate“atitl on the walls. The fine“ painting of the death of General Wolfe on the Plains of Abraham is gmong some of the best to be seen. The weather at Ottawa has become one in Parliamentary circles as the! Remedial Bill wtll be brought up for second reading on Tuesday. The reports of early dissolution are all without founda- tion and from «reliable information the writer has learned that the elections will not be helduntil the end of Juve, unless something altogether unforseen should happen.

The debate on the Remedial Bill was reaumed yesterday by Mr. Edgar, who said that it was an unexplicable and mistaken compromise, which plrased neither party. He trusted that the Gov- ernment would eventually withdraw it. Sig AP. Caron deplored that such a question should have come» before Parlia- ment—because it was causing agitation and turmoil. But the constitution should be maintained at all costs, The question at issue was & purely constitutional one, and ¢hould be so treated in the House, and so separated as far as possible from the criticising circumstances accompany- ing: it. Mr. Geoffrion oppesed the bill because it did not dojustice to the Catholics. He took up.the claims in detail to show, in his opinion, that this was the case. Dr,,.Amyot supported the measure, as this,was possibly the only chan-ze for the The people most effected. thought the measure sufficient to meet the case. ‘Mr!
