CAPT RE/tD'S AMENDMENT.
V \\'e do not suppose thntainy_ Legisla-
ture in this world, und certainly not the
Legislature of Prince l<Idwairl would pass
the aineiidiiicnt proposed by Cup! Read to
the City lighting Bill. And we do not
hold Cupt. Read responsible for itsplirusc-
nlogy. and we rissume, whether rightly
or wrongly, thrit the riinendrnent has
been drawn hy more interested parties
und pluced ln his hands.
The first and second clauses are open to
serious objections. The first clause is not
quite intelligible, hut it seems' to f0i'bid
the r-ity levying rates or constructing
electric light works until it has first by
hyluw fixed nprlce for the present light-
ingplnnt and notiilcrl the Company of
the smite, or until the Company luis
ricreptcd such price rnidtlie money has
been prtirl,or until the Company has rip
poiiiterlrin ui-l»iti'utru‘, ami so ou. But
ri-tlicre is not-liiiir: to compel tire Coni-
pany _ to appoint such arbitrator,
or to enrihle the City to pro-
ceed \\'ith0ut such appointniciit
being niride, the Company niigrlit. sinipl_v
ict inutters rm, neither ricceptiiig the
pricc offered noi~1ippoirit.liir,f:in rirbltrritor.
and the city conld not proceed ri _siiigle
stop further. It would lic simply "held
np.
The second c‘riuse provides that the
nrbitrritors, when appointed shrill deter-
iiiiiicatheynlue of the Light rinrl Power
t`.onipany`s works, “having regard to
wlint the annie works would cost if the
works should he then constructed on the
property then bought, nnd such nmonnt
so ascertained shrill be the amount. \vhicli
the urbitrrit0r.=: shall nwnrd as the price
to be ullo\verl for the snid works and pro'
perty." This ohinsc is, ns we have said.
too rihsurd to lic seriously entertained hy
ri body of honest legislators. It simply
.mmhhmLmLUimCmmmwjhm_iiapairl_
for their old plrint and _works what it
would cost to replncc the Hiiiiie with new
works ! Surely wr- lirive not yet coriie to
n. stage- wlicre such ri proposal can br-
scriously 1-onsidcrerl hy le\'c~l-liriiilc-rl,
honest men.

sort of thing is helping to give rin impetus
to the Tunnel movement. `
The meeting: nt Sonris on 'i`hursdny
evening to hear the report ofthe Ottawn
delegates was a very henrty and promis-
ing one. Mr. McQuai'rie, ICC. was unable

rin urgent. professional engugeiiient, inrich
to the regret of his codelegrites rind those
wliorittended the meeting. A plc-rising
feuture was the attendance of ii goodly
conipnny of the ladies of Souris, who
listened with the same earnest
atteiition ns their ninscuiine fric-nrls.

PROHlBlT-ION AMENDMENTS.
Dot-li the Ministeriiil und Opposition
sidi-s of the liouse are to he lienrtily com-
mended for the support given to the
main features of tiie amendments to the
Prohihitory Liquor Law as asked for;
The pijovisidns to render the scrircli
warrruit- clause effective, and to compel
the tcstiinony of persons arrested for
drunkenness its to where they obtained
their' liquor, must be of great service in
securing thc easier and better enforce-
ment of the lriw in the future.
\\'e have grave doubts however in
regard to the following new provision:
Nothing in this Act contained shrill
prohibit the srilc by legally qualified
ciieinist-s rind druggists of drugs or
incdir-incs mixed wit-li nic-oliol or spirit-
uouls liquors for purely iiierlicinul pui~-
