"Opifer per Orbem Dicer." - mini CN off Check-Rein. The Tdronto News, which helped Mr. Whitney into power, and has, possible, been most kindly in #ts eriti- cism of him, is moved to discourage his pyrotechnics. "Mr. Whitney seems," says our con- tempotary, "to 'be a perpetual rocket, His casing is filled with political ex- plosives from day to day, and all that is needed is for a member of the dpposition to light a match. Then, with a whirring cresgendo rush he zoos up in the air amid a chorus of admiring 'Oh's," aml after a few oreliminary © sputters bursts with a loud explosion into variegated and starry' splendor. The casing drops | zeacefully, and is immediately loaded again, in preparation for the next grand ascension. The spectacle is ma- justice, but is it politics ® Spectacular indignation is the privilege of opposi tions, but usually governments are not given to {hat sort of thing." Perhaps the premier will come to see himsell as others sce him, 30 learn to put a check or brake up- sn his indignation. His frequent seulds are unbecoming and' undignified. and Senate And Reform. Senate reform is not easily accom: plished, For many years it has been talked about, but so far no one and no party has advanced a scheme which 8 accepted ms practicable or workable. Me. McIntyre, M.P., precipitated a discussion on the subject when, in the Commons, he moved, as an expres- dion of opition,: that a change should 'he attempled by (1), abolishing the ystem of life tenure of office by the senators; (2) limiting the period vithin which one may serve in the wnate to three parliaments, and (3), requiring the senators to retive when. they reach the age of ciighty. Life tenure of office is the great weakness of the average senator. He ets put of touch with the people,. be- ause he has no particular reason to wep in it. A second weakness is the dvanced age of #0 many members of he upper chamber. They reach it gen- rally when they have passed the prime A life. They grow mellow "with age, but not more energetic and more use- ul. There is a pathos about the state nent, that some ome, in parliament, as nearly réachod or passed the 100th sear. It does not, however, accord dith the ideas of the strenuous life vhich the legislative chamber repres- wnts, There is a demand for a change in the senate, and Sir Wilfrid Laurier ws intimated that the liberals are will in the quest of it. The inference, hat it the olitical cast of the upper chamber ws been changed, that the senate is wo longer antagonizing aent for political effcet, ect. The liberals under bh Jackenzie with a desire for reform in tho senate. They had the same desive shen they resumed power in 1896, The Huestion is what this reform ghould be. I'he premier favours the election of snators by the legislature periodical- ly, and because that principal would fprotect the smaller provinces. Eventu- ally we shall have the issue crete form, and if will be adopted. The oe changed, is not desired now that the govern- is not cor- went into office in a con- it be popular it constitution can Farmers Harking Back. This week's issue of the Weekly Sun wpplics the evidinoe of the unpopu- arity of the Whitney railway legisla- ion, The farmers had been educated 0 believe that they were being im- wseld "upon in. the wav of taxation, that if the railways (the great money nakers), like farm lunds they would have a lighter rate. were assessed they had been given to understand, wo, that the Whitney party had their iflea of taxation and that the reform hat has been so long desired would w iminediately brought to pass. Now there is a wail of discontent all over the land, and 'the farmers are utting in their protests. A few cita- ions will interest. "J. F. Beam. of dlack Creek, calls on the farmers' as sociations and the Grange committee to frame sill and demand thyt it he passe , the Jawveak members dwho decline to support it being weeded out in the next election.

McLean says. the Whitney government is under the spell of the great Letheridge regards the proposed bill as "better than nothing." As they procesd the farmers become more decided in their opinions. John Steel, Muirkirk, Mr. Whitney @ "stand up to it onee more," and sce something = better "than a milk ment will not carry "things they were corporations. J. B. wants whim? C. Good, Brantiord, calls on the pre- mier to' do justice and equalize taxa- tion or frankly admit that he is afraid of the railway compunics. FE. K. Bury, Marpeth. says the Farin- ers' Association of that district warms the government mot to deceive the farmers who helped to put it where it is. IL Hollingworth says there will be no peace for the government until justice is dome, and if there is no action soon "there will be a political earthquake," without a parallel. J. W. Hyatt sees who are "our-- real masters," when he examines the bill. And? more to the same eficct. The Sun marks the significance of the correspondence hy saving : "These opinioné are expressed by men, the majority of whom supported Whitney candidates in the last election, and who did this mainly because of dis- satisfaction with the wanner in which the previous government had dealt with corporations.' The Whig does not wonder at their anger. They have been grossly de ceived. They have been shamefully imposed upon. -------- Editorial Notes. The legislature will adjourn in ten days and a lot of things which the peoplé were promised will be left yun- done. .

Mr. Whitney's predecessor, a man of greater ability, as leader of the op- position once swung his' right ann above his head and swore that he would have the political life of a cer- tain liberal minister! The dramatic effect was fine. And that is all there was about it. Mr. Whitney is a copy- ist, but he has no dramatic taste. In theatricals he is a dead failure. Toronto SPIRIT OF THE PRESS.

Had Been Il Some Time--De- ceased Was a Former Speaker of House of Commons and «Was Prominent in Business * Circles. Pembroke, May 3.--Hon. Peter White, M.P., exspeaker of the House of Commons, died, this morning, at Clifton Springs, New York, .whither he had gone m scarch of health: He was in poor health for some time, and did not take his scat in the hoase during the present session. Hon. Peter White was born August 30th, 1838, in the town of Pembroke, where he lived all his life. He was the son of Lieut.-Col. White, an Fdin- burgh gintleman who had founded the town of Pembroke in the later twen- tie# and had enteral the Canadian lumber business as a pioneer. Eduea- ted in the Pembroke schools and. af terwards trained in an Ottawa mer- cantile house, Mr. White early entered the lumber business in partnership with his brother, the late Andrew T. White. For some years Mr. White took an active part in mumicipal polities, and was several times clected reeve of the town and township of Pembroke. His entry into dominion politics was in the general clection of 1872, when he suffered defeat as the conservative candidate for North Renfrew. Undis- mayed by his failure he ran again in the general election of 1874] He was successful this time, but was unseated the same year, and in the ensuing byervledtion suffered defeat. Tn 1875 he was elected and took his scat as one of Sir John A. Macdonald's old guard. At the general elections in IR78 he was again elected and held his seat until the return of the Laur ier government in 1596, when he was defeated by Thomas Mackie. He play ed an active part in this election. and denounerd Sir Charles Tupper's atti tude_on the Manitoba school question, During his parliamentary career Mr. White held many offices of honor 'and trust. - During the seventh parliament, from 1891 to 1896, he was speaker of the: House of Commons, and for seve- ral years was chairman of the house's standing committee agriculture and immigration. In 1996 he was ap- pointed a member of the advisory board of the Liberal-Conservative Union "of Ontario, and in March of the same year was called to the privy council of Canada In business circles he was long known as one of the most prominent lumber dealers of the Ottawa Valley. He was one of the chief promoters of the Kingston & Pembroke railway, and was prominently connveted at various times with the Excelsior Life on Insurance . company, the Pembroke Lumber comipany, the Crystal Gold Mining company; and the Pembroke Water Works company. A man of quiet, unassuming man- ner, with 'a straightforward, fearless way of looking at things, a keen grasp of public affairs and undoubted business ability, in public and com- mercial life he was widely known, and wherever known was respected. He was considéged one of the best speak ers the commons ever had. Mr. White was married in 1877 to { Miss Thompson, of Nepean, Ont., and the | leaves a familv of three sons and a daughter. Herbert P., a student at Guéen's University; G. V. White, a mining engineerin Nova Scotia, and L. A. White, and Miss Muriel at home. To A Mother At Rest.
