REDUCTION OF THE LEGISLATUR Abolition of Legislative Council. HON. MR. FERGUSONS SPEECH ON ‘* DYNAMITE BILL.” Hon. Mr. Ferovsoy said that there could ibe no difference of 1of the Government opinion as to the poliey respecting the abclition of the Levislaiive Council, Neither eonld there be any two opinions as to the pro- |Dhicty of the course they now professed | ‘to pursue, notwithstanding the statemeuts ‘ef the Opposition. Yhe hor. member fer Tignish no doubt felt it his duty to i OPPOSE EVERYTRING ‘which the Government propored or intro- ;duced, He (Mr. Ferguson) could not un- ‘derstand the hon. gentleman’s action in ‘any other light. At the General Election |o4 1879, as was weil known, twenty-six out }Of the thirty members of the House were returned to abolish the Council. It was also equally well known that at the Council, |Election held in the Nevember* previous five constituencies declared in favor of the! ‘same principle, The Goverpinent had | DETERMINED To CakkY OUT THE VIEWS of the electors with respeet te this quigge ;tion, and had introduced a Bill during €he i very first session of the present Honse ier ‘that purpose. They were defeated, but re- /newed their efforis, and met | defeat in the Couneil. very desirous of having the quesiion set- tled, they introduced a measure making a a Th is Bill in- ; } ; compromise with the Conucil.

Three & Ssicns Were new nearly over, and the two Houses were further from an axureement upon this matter than ever, simply because the Councii bau taken HIGHER GROUND than ever before, sespeecting it. In tak jig this step the Upper House declared | that th: y Weie coniehulbg ier proyerty-lioiders, and not pas the been sens up by the House. What did the} 'plesent Bui propose? it proposed that at} the dissultticn ot the House of Assembly, {both Houses should co tu the country for |instructions with respect to this queetion ili the meubers of the Council were satis- iol that they | ) ovuia | abolition of that body, and to the measures | | passed by this Houce, it would be wisdom /ou their part to to accept the present Bill, Hin orcer that they might appeal to their jconstituenis and thus settle the question. 11f the people returned to the Counet! men, |pl.dged to retain that House, the Lower: tivuse would have no further right to in terfere in the matter. But he (Mr. Fer- gison) believed that the peopie would take good care to return men pledged to vote for the abolition of the Council. It was weil kuewn that the Bull relating to! this question, which hed been passed by the Liouse this session, was not such as hon membera would have liked te pass. Laey would have much preferred to pass a Billi witheut avy provision for the over- apping of the constituencies, and it was only by way of compromise with the Ceun- tion, while the third, whe supported the retention of the Council, slipped im be- tween them. ‘The votes cast in favor of the two abolition eandidates numbered 463, while those eaet for the supporter of the Council, who was elected, mumbered only 403. it was, therefore, clear thst the District was opposed toretaining the Coun- eil. in the Second District of Prince County, Mr. W. G. Strong, a most estim. able gentleman whowas not in favor of abolishing the Council at that time, was defeated, and Mr. Burns, an abolitionist, was returned by a wzjority of sixty-nine votes.

In Charlottetewn, Mr. A. Long- worth, an abolitionist, polied 230 votes, but was defeated by Mr. T. W. Dodd, by the small number of 21 votes. cleared in favor of the abolition of the Council. The total vote for abolition was 2,162, and against it, 1:623—being a clear maj rity of nearly 500° property Holders in faver of the abolition ef the Legislative Conncil. Hewonld again quote from a Liberal newapaper ; this time from the Toronto Globe, the leading Liberal organ cf the Duminivn. : Mr. Perry, Ob, do you believe in the Globe 1 the Opposition found it convenient to advo- cate one set ef opinions in the forenoen, aud another in the afternoon, respecting this question. In this the honorable gen- tiemen seemed io think he was giving tothe House evidence of his undoubted smartness. Ir he (Mr. Perry) thought his condact in this matter entitled him to rank high as a cil, in the hope that it wonld meet their} views, that the House had sanctioned the) ‘measnrée alluded to.

However other hon. members of the Hous: were of a different opinion, and looked upon other merits as const tu ing smartness When he(Mr. Ferguson) beard a political opponent ady cating sentiments which he was willing to meet him on a com:mon plat- form, and give him credit for them. On this ground he would now read a quotation from au article in the Toronto Globe of the 1%th mstant; with reference to the bill passed by this House, during the present ession, making prevision for the abolition of both Houses and for constituting a General Assembiy, The only misapprehen- sion under which the editor of that journal labored, was that he supposed it to be the pohey of the present Local Government to retain the two Houses sii.
