Ottawa, May 11.--The debate on the i ty resulted in one the mast tacles it has the lo Pitinkle See of the press gallery to ess. To see a member of any com- unity ostracised ja bad enough, but when it comes to one'of the legislators of a country, the choice of the people, pilloried for offences, branded and left sitting silent, impotent and avoided, some pity surges in the breast. To see a parliamentary career brought to an end as regards its usefulness, to have to raport the fact that one man has been singled out by both parties for the burning, is a matter of business distasteful, Such was the end of W. F, Maclean, the conservative member for South York. Henceforward he is a man of no account in Canadian politics; his ability, erstwhile distinctive and po- tent, rendered of no "avail. Both par- tics had been waiting for = an. oppor- tunity, It came and was taken ad- vantage of to the full. If the whole circumstance serves to show anything it is that loyalty and patriotism are hy no means dead in these days of ours, that Canadians of this party or of that will not Wlerate the stab ih the back, the unclean political de- meanor on the platform, nor the de- fiance of all honorable courses of ap- {peal to the people, ¢ We have heard much this session of political graft, of ways of conduet- fag public business, that seemed bad on the face of them, and perhaps we hive been too prone to judge"hy ap- pearances, to start out with the pre- mises that all politics is bad, but the debate on the Maclean amendment to the indemnity act proved beyond any manner of contradiction that the hearts of Canadian parliamentarians are in the right place. That being so thére cannot he so very much wrong as has been conjectured. It proved also that when any upright public man who has earned the respect and confidence of the members and the people, is attacked, the whole voice of parliament will condemn with certain voice. In these matters thére is mo party in C nisi The story of it is too well known to wire reiteration here, but a' side- light might be shown. When Mr. Bor- den became leader of the opposition he took charge of a party which was torn. and worn by jealousy and dis- sension, He was given the dishearten- ing task of evolving from the debris of the old conservative administration a united and practical body of men. Men who had expected the post them- selves, fought him outside the house, and with the cheapest form of party disloyalty. They set themselves to ruin his efforts, to nullify the = ad- vance again to power, and it must be conceded that to some extent, they shouted it in the byways and hedges that this man was done in his own province where they knew him best, but their very success was the means of supplying strength to the tory party, Better minded men rallied round the leader, and cheered on by the wond@ful ability he is now showing, became a fighting force in- finitely stronger and more competent than. it has been since 1896. The worst of the offenders was W. F. Maclean. Taking the indemnity passed lasts year, as his cue, he regaled him- self and his constituents with vituper- ation and innuendo that disgusted lib- eral and tory alike. Tt was an im- peachment of the character of the most honorable of men, a man, like the premier, on whom the breath of scandal has never passed, and dire vengeance was meditated. The oppor- tunity has not been long in coming. It is remarkable of the Canadian par- liament the intense respect which each side pays to the leader of the other, and hence the stern, unanimous, con- demnation of the delinquent. Hour af- ter hour, until far on: in the ing, men told the tale, and at the end the member for South York, to avoid a demonstration, did not utilize the right to reply. The points around which the speak- ors wandered were the reduction of the indemnity to the old figures, the spe- cial indemnity to the leader of the op- position, and the pension to ex-minis- ters, These two latter Mr. Maclean sought to do away with and the first to effect. His bill was thfown out by the awful majority of 167 to 9. Only one liberal, Gilbert McIntyre of Perth, voted for it, "The indemnity, or the salary, as Mr. Bourassa insists upon deseribing it, will never be reduced. Sir Wilirid Laur. ier's argument is that before 1903, parliaments were short, occupying but two or three months of the year, ahd men did not love to forsake their a member's duties occupy him most of the year. Parliaments )will. never be shorter; they will be longer in the fu- ture; members must receive their ex- penscs. As regards the special indemnity to the leader of the opposition, he de- fended that because he claims that the leader. of the opposition is pat of the political system of our cowntry. and should he materially recognized. Tt is better to" have heen paid by the coun- try, than hy the moneyed interests within his own party. . But Hoth ties seem to feel that the nensions ex-ministers are not in all cases right. Men have gone ont of office with fortunes, which they did mom- not possess when they entered, and it - seems unfair unnecessary that succeeded, They gloated over the fact,- inpossbl fo Got Emplo fo | mployment, | * Face an Body Were Covered ith Itching -- Scratched Till Flesh Was Raw-- Spent Hun- dreds of Dollars on Doctors and Hospitals and Grew Worse CURED BY CUTICURA "IN FIVE WEEKS 1804 I have been troubled with u very bad case of eczema wi ve spen dreds i a trying to cure, and I went to the hospital, but they failed to cure me and it was getting worse all the time.

A --------------ETE-- they should be further financially bene fited, It is likely, therefore, that the premier will introduce a bill to do away with the pensions. Special cases can be dealt with separately. The government has approved of the course which Mr. Aylesworth has pur- sued in continuing his private prac- tice, after his appointment to the cabinet. The debate which arose over the proceeding, was another 'remark- able one in @ session which has had some extraordinary features. This de- bate rose to a high level. Technical, yet popular by way of the principle involved, it occasioned oratory of high order. The postmaster-general, himself, rose to a great height. He took the ground, as did the premier, that after the duties of his offi¢e had been accomplished, the lawyer should be allowed to practisé, just as the physician, business man, or journalist can continue his profession. A party vote decided that this was correct. The opposition took the ground that when a minister engaged in the practise of the profession of law it was unfair to the judges, the public, ard litigants. Justice could not be properly administered in all cases. Another matter of serious import has engaged the attention of parlia- ment. Labor interests have noted that workmen from the old country have been brought to Canada under false. pretences. Much destitution and misery have resulted. Last vear a law was passed by 'the Canadian par- liament rendering it an indictable of- fence to bring men to this coumtry under false 'pretences, so now it is proposed Tonge the imperial parlia- ment, by resolution, to take similar action in Great Britain, that is; ask the British house to pass a law dealing with the offense of sending emigrants to Canada under false pre- tences. Mr. Aylesworth announced that the government had already taken action, and so it may be that many of the heart-rending sights ome has observed at Atlantic ports, and in the greater Canadian cities, of stranded old . country families, with- out work, and without means will be seen more seldon than heretofore. to MARRIED AND AWAY, Miss Sills Was Married to An Oshawa Man.

New York, May 12.--F. B. Behr, the inventor of a mono-rail system of rapid transit, is now in this city, agitating in favor of his plan of es tablishing his system in Greater New York, with a view of solving the transportation problem, which is causing so much trouble to the au- thorities and the citizens. According to the inventor it would be possible, with his system, to haul passenger cars at an average speed of 100 miles an hour and thus reduce, by fully one half the fastest time made by express trains at the present time, Mr. Behr has mapped out a comprehensive sys- tem of rapid transit for New York, which would bring all five boroughs and the uttermost parts of those bor- oughs into close communication. He says, he has the capital ready to be gin-the construction: of the system, provided he can get the requiredfran- chise from the authorities, According to his plans the line would extend from Tottenville through the whole length of Staten Isfand to the Narrows, under the Narrows by tube to Fort Hamilton, tnence through Brooklyn to the Kast River near the city hall, under the East river by tube to Manhattan Island, up Manhattan Island by subway and elevated to the Bronx and nings- bridge. According to the inventor's plan every point in any of the bor- oughs would thus be -brought within fifteen minutes of Wall street, Of course, there would he lateral lines and branches, the whole system mak- ing about forty-six miles of four-track road, One of the branches. would run to Coney Island, and for this road Mr. Behr now has an application pending for a franchise from the junction of Atlantic and Flatbush avenues, Brodk- lyn, out Fourth avenue and othér streets to Coney Island, At a recent hearing before the railroad committee of the board of aldermen, Mr, Behr of- fered to 'give the city the free use of his patents if the municipality build the Coney Island line." The Behr "mono-rail" which has been endorsed by engineers in this country and Europe, attains very high speed by "the use of electricity for power, applied to a motor car running on a single rail, The rail is laid upon the apex of an A shaped structure, either on the surface, underground, or as an elevated line, and the car strad- dles it as a rider~does a horse, Both sides of the car hang far below the rail, thus lowering the centre of gre- vity, so that it is impossible for the car to turn over or leave the rail, In practical operation on a trial track three miles long at the Brus- sels exposition the Behr tained | an average speed of miles _am-hour over a course of ctirves and straight track and the commis. sion named by the British parliament! which gave Mr.: Behr a franchise to build one of his roads from Liverpool to Manchester, reported that an aver age speed of 110 miles an hour could be made with perfect safety. The Liverpool-Manchester line is now un- der construction. would ninety ---- BOER WAR COMPENSATIONS. -------- Over £62,000,000 Was For Purpose. London, May 12.--The Central Judi cial Commission entrusted with. the duty of allocating the funds allotted by the imperial government for com: pensation for war losses, etc., has now completed its duties and its re port has been signed by the members, The commission was constituted in October, 1902, and originally consist- ed of Sir William Smith, one of the judges of the supreme court of the Transvaal, -R. K. Loveday, RB. J. Kleinhans, representing the Trans. vaal, and C. Gi. Radolfi, representing the Orange River Colony. In March, 1903, the personnel of the commission was changed. Sir William Smith ceased to act as president, and Maj. McInerny was appointed to that posi- tion. During these three years ghe commis- sion has had submitted to it for con sideration between 80,000 and 90,000 claims, representing a total valne of apfroximately £62,000,000, In addi tiofl to this the commission was call el upon to deal with "military re ceipts"' of a face value of about £2,- 500,000, bringing up the total to £64, 500,000. ; To meet this enormous amount the British taxpayer provided, by way of free gifts, £9,500,000. Of this sum £3.500,000 represented the free giit or grant provided for under the terms of surrender, while the rest was made up of a grant of £2,000,000, for the com- pensation of = British and foreign' sub- jects; and a grant of £4,500,000 for payment of military © receipts and gratuities to "'protgeted burghers." Of the total, approximately £5,000,000 was apportioned by the conmnission to meet claims in the Orange River Colony, while 000 was distributed to meet claims in the Transvaal and the territory ceded to Natal, but formerly a part of the Transvaal.
