SATURDAX NOV. 24. 131).
FREQUENT ELECTIONS.
The Quebec Legislatnre~ has been
dissolved and the~Opposi£i0n. in that
province are objecting that the HOUSE
lmight have held two more sessions and
that there was no Dl`°D@l` Pmtext' f°" a
dissolution. On the Ministerial side the
excuse is made that there were sixor
seven vacancies, and there having been a
new Administration forined,it is desirable
that it should have the endorsation of the
people before entering upon itS W0rk- We
do not regard the objection as_ having
much force, nor the cxcusc as being very
sincere. The Parent Government have
'appealed to the country at the present
time, as they have a constitutional
privilege of doing, mainly because they
believe the time is most auDiCi0“S f°1`
sicuriug the support of the electorate.
The Opposition’s real ground of objec-
tion is that theyare taken at a disadvant-
age because of the recent Liberal sweep
in the federal elections. And our experi-
,ence in watching many elections shows
i that it is quite useless for an Opposition
The popular idea is that an Opposition
ought to welcome an appeal to the people
at any time, within reasonable limits. In
‘ feder'alaf1'airs the legal term of Parliament
is five years, and in provincial affairs the
legislative term is four years, but in both
cases the Houses' are subject to an earlier
dissolution by executive authority. As
a matter of fact in a little over33 years we
have had nine federal elections. It is a
curious fact that in every case of a
dissolution of uié fooemi House wit-bio
four years of its election the Government
was sustained, while all the defeats
followed after a full, or nearly full term
of Parliament had expired. `
The first federal Parliament was elected
in 1867 and dissolved in 1872 .after Eve
sessions. Sir John Macdonald's majority
was so small in that year that when
trouble came he felt it best to resign in
1873. The Mackenzie Government came
in and after five sessions of Parliament
went _tothe country and were defeated
in 1878. Sir John had the new Parliament
dissolved in 1882 and was sustained.
After four sessions he again dis-
solved in 1887 and was victorious.
and was defeated at the polls. Si
ilissolvqti practically _a year before th
have shown most confidence in th
"1 ` I 1
re arded t ry,  
several tniioofollowcd when Parlianient*
was permitted to live out its full term.
If we turn to Provincial affairs ws
shall find the same conditions and very
similar results. In Ontario the Legis-
lature of 1885 only lasted three year°._
In Nova Scotia the Legislature of_:,,1895
only lasted three years. 1`n New Bruns-
wick the Legislatures elected in 1887,
1490, 1893 and 1896_each only lasted three
” years, yet in every case the governments
_ which dissolved themwere' sustained at
the polls. Many other instances might
be cited. in Manitoba the Legislatures of
1893 and 1896 only lasted three years each,
the appeal in the latter entirely excep
tional case being followed by the defeat
of the Green way Ministry. So many in-
stances in which the peoplehave endbrsei
the respective Governments which appeal-_
ed to t-hem at an earlier date than was by
law required, go to show that the people
7 do not object to the exercise of the pre-
rogative of dissolution. The people may
or may not decide rightly in all cases, ‘bu
they will have their own way in elections
and the above review
way has usually been.
