The an- nouncemsrt was made in the Legis- lature yeeterday when Bir James Whitney introduced an act to amend the Power Commission Act, in order fo allow Mr. Beck to receive remuner- ation for his s r-ices and still retain his seat !n the House. That public school insrectors will receive an increase of remuneration from $1,700 to $2,600 per annumn was the gist of an amendmant to the Pub- lic School Act. The raise of selary will run over thres years with an additional $100 each year. The bill, which wes introduced by Hon. Dr. Pyre, also provided for vacation schools during the summer if school boards desire to establish them. 4 *14 is a perfect disgrace that we should have toll roads in the Pro- vince of Ontario," declared Bam C.arke: {West Northumberland), when the bill of Hon. Dr. lleaume respect- ing 'them was being considered in committes. The Minister of Public Works was asked by Mr. Clarke as to the number of toll gates in the pro- vince, to which he replied that he couldn't give a definite number, but thers were only a few. "They should be stamped out," quoth Mr. Clarke. Hereafter no telephone company, Bell or independent, will be able to get an exclesive franchise without the assent of the pepole. This is the effect of a bill introduced by Hon. 1. B. Lucas, which was considered in committee. The proposed legisla- tion had been before the House for some considerabla time, but the act- x brought out g '"'exclusive One purpose of it is to get scm pu y as to the nature of the contract beik enterad into by the company and {he muni- cipality for the benefit of the people.

Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence undertook to abstain from sny further violence pending their trisl. Mrs. Mabel Tuke, who is in ill health, fainted during the hearing and was discharged from custody. The magistrate thought that the case against her was not nearly so strong as that against the other prisoners. Gamey to Choose Route. Toronto, March 29.--R. R.

Borden said it would be difficult to maintain the position that the subsidies should not be granted provinces wi would be Frosted to private companies. If the istory of railway subsidies for the Poet twenty years were cratinised, | e thought they would find that sub- sidies had been granted for roads al- ready constructed. An application had been made by the Province of Ontario at the time the T. & N. O. was being construct- , ed, but had been refused. Shy should the Province of Ontario, he asked, ' be placed in a worse position because this principle of aid to Government. built railways was not recognized when the road was built? The résult of the principle advocat- ! ed by the Opposition, he added, would { mean that every gtanted by that the mier was penurious to Nova Scotia, but was make a gift of $2,000,000 to Ontario. | "Donald Sutherland (8.

There was something to be said for | the Ontario view. : W. II. Bennett (E.

It was absolutely undefensible, however, he argued, to grant a sub- sidy to a road already built, and a paying proposition. The time waa eoming when the whole question of | subsidies would have to be more care- fully looked into. . B. Devlin (Wright) protested against the expenditure as an injus: tice to the other provinces, especially | to his own Province of Quebec. The Government was afflicted with a sur- lus of $39,000,000 and were trying ard to get rid of it, but they had nothing for the building of the Geor- gian Bay Canal, which the late Gov- errment was just on the point of building before Bept. 21. The Government, 8ir Wilfrid Laur- jer said, were opening the door to consequences they did not realize. If the Province of Quebec, for instance, next year launched out into extrava- gant railway construction, what was to prevent them coming to the Dom- inion and demanding aid to help them out? Either it was a provincial or & na. tional road. If it was a provincial | road, it had no right to the suhsidy, d If it were a national road it shou be kept as a national road. If it wero to be treated the same as a corpora- tion railway, it should be treated as a corporation railway right along. It should not only claim the benefits, but should also assume the obligations of a Dominion subsidy. MBRIDE SWEEPS B. C.
