MoGregoHs extracts from MacPhettsonh Handbook on Iheshyteri-anism, for it emphasizes a point which i mentioned in my latter. but perhaps did not make sufficiently clear, viz: that while under the lPt-esbytorinn system, the vote of the people has no constitu- tional value. it ls undoubtedly wise and right that PrcsbytorIes-eholud take account of the people's wishes and should not carry on their pro- ceedings "with n lofty disregard of the sentiments of the ordinary ntcmhersblp." And tbLs consulting of the wishes of the people as every one knows, has been done Itt the matter of Church Union. Twice they were consulted and both times gave a substantial majority In fav- or of Union, so that. Presbyterles knew what the people who express- ed themselves wanted, and were guided by It. Unfortunately a large number did not vote at all. and we can only guess at their at- titude on this matter. “Pres-by- terian's" guess, d suppose, would he that they were strong opponents of Union. My guess is that a con- siderable number of them were not interested enough to vote. and so do not count for very much on either side, anti that many more 0f them. feeling that they did not un- derstand the qttestiou very well, and having confidence In their min- isters and elders. were content to leave the decision In the matter-to the church courts.

Al. tho otttsct we wish to emphatically state that we have no personal desire to rc- taln office. It will be remembered however that tho administration of the Act was removed from party politics and placed Iu tho Ittmds of an independent Board of Coin- mlseioners by an Act of the Legisla- ture of this Province. The first Commissioners appointed under this Act were Clergyntcti re- presenting thc various religious denomination“ in ibis Province and the whole Province can testify as to tho splendid work performed by them during their term of office. On their resignation on the third day of January 1922, the Temperun ce Alliance, anxious to maintain the rigid enforcement of the law, waited on the Government with-the request that the Temperance or- gunizations of the Province he permitted to submit the names of men, who they believed would impartially and without remunera- tion do, so. The Government acquiesced and from the names submitted chose the present Com- mission. We use the term "Present Com- mission" advlsedly. because we have not as yet received any in- timation whatsoever from the Government that our services are no longer required. We therefore properly feel that as we have been chosen wpreeenta- tlve: by the Temperance organiza- tions to administer The Pro- hibition Act. our obligation to them makes it necessary to protest against what we believe to he an Illegal act on the part of the Government. In order to ascertain at first hand why the new Com- mission waa appointed a Com- mlttee waited on the Premier, and was informed, that It was, “Simply and solely because your term had Expired." This Commission took office on the third day of January A. D. 1922 and as tho Prohibition Act expressly states that a Board of Commissioners shall remain In Office for three years from the date of their appointment. the term of this Commission would ex- pire on the third day of Jtinuary I925. We do not propose to enlarge upon the legal aspect of this situa- tion; that has already been ably and truthfully presented in various press Editorials, clearly establish- ing In the minds of Impartial read- ers. the Injustice which has been done. In conclusion it seems to us, that The Stewart Government. In removing the Administration of the Prohibition Act, from the hands of an Independent Com- trrluaion and bringing It again Into tho realm of politics. has perform- ed an Act which cannot fell to militate against Its Impartial on- forcement.

CHURCH UNION (‘I t Sin-In your issue of January 4. you published a letter from the Rev. Geo. Christie. of Alberton, re- plying to “Presbyterian? Mr. Chris- tie's statement of Presbyterianism is one that would lead the average reader to conclude that the Pres- byterian people of Canada had be- come entangled in the wheels of their own machinery and were powerless to help themselves. We have not so learned Presbyterian- Ism, nor would we like others so to teat-n it. In rebuttal of Mr. Christies letter I ask you to pub- lish the following statement which not only gives a true declaration of the Presbyterian system but also refutes the Insinuation that those opposing Union are In mutiny ag- ainst their Church. 8 Government In order to have good government. experience teaches that certain con- ditions must meet and harmonize. 0f these the liberty of the people. the authority of the rulers. and the ttnity of the ntate. are of great itn- portance.

The poorest and weakest member of the flock has the right, as much as the wisest and most honored Presbyter. to act accord- ing to his judgment and conscience. _ in subordination to the directions of the Bible. This right is so fttlly declared in Scripture that It cun- not be denied. This principle of the Church's constitution lies at the root of the tree of liberty. Let It In any way be removed or weaken- ed. In that proportion is the entire freedom of the church endangered or destroyed.

R Ic W W Representation Is the special organ by which that Inherent power is’ applied. Apostolic commands are addressed to entire churches.
