W. J. Major, attorney-general, and Hon. W. R. Clubb, minisier of public works, both of which have been in the premier"s hands since Friday afternoon, following rev- elations at the royal commission probing the Seven Sister power site contract. Speaking in the legislature this afternoon, the premier staled that he had received these resignations and the government had mot yet decided what action to take in re- gard to them, He promised a definite and clear-cut siatement on Wednesday afternoon. Col. F. G. Taylor, leader of the Conservative opposition whose charges were responsible for the |of the royal commission, lashed the premier with whips of oratory. It was a strang thing, he said, that with two members of his cabinet thinking themselves sufficiently involved in the purchase of Win- nipeg Electric stock at a time when the company 'was negotiai- fog with the government of which they were members to tender their resignations to the first min- self should come into the house and ask for 24 hours longer in which to make up his mind as to his course, It should not, Col, Tay- lor said, take him 24 hours to de- ¢ide on the only course which he should adopt, having regard to the rights and privileges of the house.

Judge Cussen of the sessions court has to decide the point, raised yesterday by defence coun- sel, when David V. Bush, former St. Louis pastor, stood trial on the charge that he delivered an immoral lecture in an uptown ho el, "Because the double standard or mora.s as between men and women appeals to many people, is it immoral for a man to get up and denounce it?" Lucien Gendron, K.C., asked. "If that is immoral, then truth is immoral, and then also I have heard immoral teach- ings from the pulpit. of No.re Dame church." One remark by the judge par- ticularly interested lawyers, 'The law, that is the criminal code, does not seem to prohibit immoral lec- tures in Canada," his lordship said. He will deliver judgment next Tuesday. Bladder Troubles Bother Many Past 40 ng Reliet With Renewed Vital' Force "No one knows better than I, the horror of joyless days and Sleepless nights.
