In an open letter he explains that he brought, Rev, Mr. Jackson's utter- ances to the attention of the official board, "and," he says, 'in my sim: plicity expected a unanimous vote of censure passed upon those utterances, but to my utter amazement not a voice was raised in condemnation, but was told by a prominent mepher of the board that all learned men believigd" as Rev. George Jackson does, and 1 was asked if 1 believed the whole Bible. . Yes, I said, [| do believe the whole of it from Genesis to Revela tions, inclusive.

She then ran through the kitchen where the body was lying, and the man fir ed again. She finally escaped through the front door, and the murderer fired at her twice, as she was leaving the house.

COBALT LAKE AGT THE TRUCKLING OF ONTARIO GOVERNMENT. | | How the Florence Mining Com- pany Was Treated--A. C. Boyce Gave His Version--Why Act Was Not Disallowed. From Our Omn. Correspondent. | Ottawa, March 2.--An, important ruling by the dominion government, | on the question of provineial rights, was given, yesterday, by Hon. A. B | Aylesworth, The government stands clearly committed on the question of ownership of property. The provin cial legislatures are supreme, and on] en 'equality. with the federal govern-! ment itself in those matters which they have control. The smle of the Cobalt Lake mining rights by _the Ontario government over and the conseguent Jitigation between the the incident- warm The matter was brought up by Mr. Clarke, of Essex; who moved for all correspondence relating to the application for the disallowance by the federal government of the act of the provincial legislature en-| titled "An Act Respecting Cobuit Lake and Kerr Lake.' Mr. Clark declared that a great in justice had been done to the Florence | Mining company by the sale of Co halt Lake by the gintario government 14th, 1905, an order-in- | withdrawing | Cobalt Lake from those districts in| which a claim could be established by right of exploration. In October, | 1905, however, a second' order-in-coun- | cil was passed the efiect of which was | to again throw the lake open to ex-| ploration. The result was that Mr. Green and others went ahead with their prospecting and on March 7th, 1906, made a valuable discovery. When thay tried' to register their claim, however, they were told "that it was not open for registration. In May, 1906, the legislature passed an. act abrogating the right of discovery. Fhis act: did not, however, authorize the sale of the property. 'lhe sale 4G the Cobalt Lake Mining company was conflrmed by a later act. Mr. Ciarke reviewed the various steps ip the le- gal fight which ensued and said that the efieet of Justice Riddell's judg-| mept on the matter was that the) commandment, © "Thou shalt "not| steal," 'does not apply to a legisla ture. Mr. Clarke said that while] not gnestioning the good faith of the (Ontario government the conduct the Ontario government was opem lo some question. The bil had been given three readings in oné day. for | instance. "Whatever theré may be in this," said Mv. Clarke, in con clusion, "the bald fact remains that a | property valued at one million dollars was taken away from the Florence Mining company without a cent of compensation being given." A. UC. Boyce, West Algoma; defend od the action of the Ontario govern ment. Mr. Clarke, he said, had tak-| en a mistaken view of the - whole situaticn. The Ontario government possessed full power to pass the or-| ders-in-council and acts which were passed and to preserve to the pro- vince a portion of -the rich: mining district around Cobalt. Mr. Boyce argued . that there had been interfer ence with granted rights. The Flo ence Mining company. was a specula- ti.e compguny and did not, posses any right" The second order-in-coun cil of October Mr. Boyce argued did | not apply at alk to Cobalt Lake that at the time the Florence Mining compahy were Carrying on their ex plorations in defiance of the first order-in-council. Mr, Boyce went on to contrast" the action of the Onthrio | government in respect to Cobalt Lake with the veckless disposal of dhe west-| ern timber lends by the federal ¢ ernment. The minister of mines throughout had managed and hand- | led the resources of the province in the best interests of the peaple which | was in marked contrast to what had! heen done in Ottawa. Hon. A. B. Aylesworth said that he bad advised against the disallowance] of the act of the Ontario legislature, ! bet in coming to his conclusion he did "not attempt to pass upon the justice or stability or validity of the claims in. question, but upon the larger matter only, whether the pro- vincial legislature had the power take away property from one man give it to another and take away the right to litigate.
