We like to feel that the chief actors in the national drama will play thc-ir parts masterfully. that they will not stumbli- over their lines, miss their cues, or make the play go badly when all the world, through the neWspaneis. is looking on and criticizing. The grace with which Sir Wilfrid comported himself in the Diamond Jubilee celebrit- tions, the facility with which he arose and with which he always 'u'l.'rett-- to every great. occasion, thtilled the nation al pride. In a. more restricted aroma. Premier Ross has shown the ssme qualities. What great occasions hss he ever failed to adorn with graphic language? Who so ready, so opt, as he l to say the right word in the right place 1 and at the shortest notice? Who is equal to him in expressing what everr body thinks with force and precision? These msy he trivial things. People who are not touched by eloquence or moved by tho pageantry of wmds may snort scorntully. but there's s poetic instinct in nations and communities that in the making of history the high priest shall always be adequate. or course, Ontario would not suffer a Premier who was all words. Words without deeds are " unsatisfactory as faith without works. By his construct- ive, aggressive policy Premier Ross has shown that he has solid claims on our otMrrages, and that when he is not speak in; our thoughts or interpreting the policy of his Government he is perpend. inn over our interests. The outstanding cmstructive and intorpretstive ability ot the Premier muss tho Opposition took like tho proverbial thirty cents. While Liberalism in Csnsdscsn produce orators and statesmen of the type ofl, Ontario has linen very fortunate in its public men. Looking as far lka as Confederation- a retrospect of more, than " ttener"tion--therehas nave-r been a time when the destiniea of the Prov. ince were not. in capable, careful hands. The wise, gentle sway of Sir Oliver Mount, still linger-sin our memories, and particularly bin efforts in the boundary award, by which we were coutivtued in that rich heritage now known as New Ontario. No one hegrudges the old statesman the ease, the dignity,aml the income he enjoys as Lieutetiarit.Govev. nor. Indeed this, the most lucrative gift in our powvr. is but small reward for the preservation of those territopits which are the great hope ot our future. it. is satisfactory to note, “Lo. that, Premier, Ross. his mo” distinguished l successor, "ppveriates to the full this legary. and is putting forward a policy which will make it fructlfy. i’rt-Iuier Ross served his apprenticeship an " cauuacalist under Sir Oliver Mownt, and he seems to lmvrnhsorhed his foresight. his tact, and his methods generally.

I know tt 0 well the necessity in which they are in England. tooffsr the slightest objectionand for my part I am quite content to be the subgect of the Piotestaut King of Eng- an ." In conclusion the Premier tsaid..-- "Whether this motion passes or doe, not pass, whether it passed it isheed- ed or not heeded in England, whether this oath is maintained in the law, the lovalty of Roman Catholics will not be effected thereby. They will contmue tobeas they are to-day willing and cheerful subjects of His Majesty King Edward wr, and of his successors, But it canbe well admitted that pride and devotion which we all take in this great empire which was the firgt refuge of liberty of conscience when liberty of conscience wee still banished from the rest of the world. would be more enthusiastic if that legislation. the last vestiges of these ages of WI teh I have spoken were to be blotted out forever from the statute books ot free England". 'ns were expressed in the declaration objected to, were repugnant to the spirit of the presentage, they wore a rem- nant of those in’oieruut ideas which for 1 many centuries disrupted and desolated , Europe. [Io pointed oat that the i abolition of this objectionable declara- tion did not ttfyeet the Protestant success ion nor the Church of England nor the Protestant religion. There were two oaths to be taken by the king: one was to “maintain the laws ofGod, the true profession of the gospel, and the reform- ed religion established by law." The motion before the House did not in any way contemplate to do away with that oath, In 1677, in the reign of Charles II, statute Waspassed which compelled all members ofthe House ol Lords, and the House oi'Commons, and all servants of the Crown, to take the oath contain- ing the words "And that the invocation or adoration ofthe Virgin Mary, or any other saint, and the sacrifice otthe mass, as they are now used in the Church of Rome, are superstitious and i idolatroas". In 1689 this statute was extended to the king, In sofaras it applied to subjects of the king, that act haslong ago been abolished, and the object of the resolution now betore the House was to represent to the Imperial authorities that this oath should be dispensed with by the king as by his 1 subjects. I ion the King lor the removal of the dociaration made upon his accession to the throne, in which he denies the doctrine of tranatlbstantiation and stignatises the invocation and adoration Virgin Mary and tho saints at super- stitious and idolatroo. As was pointed out by several speakers, the introduc- tion of the subject into the House at all, i was a dangerous experiment, liable to lead to untoward and even regrettable incidents, but to creditotthe members it must be recorded that the discussion throughout, though pceionally heated never once became objectionable, every speaker, he he Protestant or Roman Catholic. kept himself well in hand. I THE PREMIERE Posrrtox. l The debate itself was ol unusual ex. curlleruw, and was listened to by crowd- ed:galieries. Both leaders rose to the full measuro of the requirements of the hour, and the speeches which followed Were almost without exception, worthy of the best traditions ol the House, The Premier declared that such sentiments No wonder the session is going along so smoothly and business is progress- ing so rapidly, and eyerything is so lovely for the lion is hobnobbing with the lamb in regulation millenial style, and scarce aripple disturbs the seren- itv of the proceedings of the House. The greatest interest this weeks centres mound last week's debate upon the proposal of Hon. John Costigan, to petit- ion the King tor the removal 0 the ly wealthy man. Although Premier Ross is probably the youngest of our great man hishead is plentifully be, sprinkled with gray and his health is considerably undermined when he. reaches his zenith. But the lamp of his mind burns clear and bright as ever. hie jndzuwnt is ripe, his eloquence alert and nimble, and so we say that no career is ten large for him. Some peo- ple do say that wheurlurs,rreat outstand- ing Frenchman Lnurier is temoved from the sewn- the great outstanding Englishman Ross is his legitimate suc- u-ssm. Oman-in. however, will have smut-thing to my about that. This Province mnnnt afford to Lax:- a. Roan, although the Lirutd party has two Itt' thtuu, tils' class Prime Ministers in the nursery.

Meanwhile he promised the dole. gation that it was his purpose to strengthen the restrictive clauses of the License, Act. In faetto make the most of whatever laws We have. In view ofthe decision Premier Ross hos deemed it wise to counsel delay to a delegation which waited upon him to urge. prohibitive legislation (or the province. We have the utmost con- fidence in the sincerity of Mr. Ross' temperance attitude, and believe that when constitutional obstacles are re- moved this province, under his lender- ship will bave a wise measure of prohibition. The court holds that the power of the province to pass legislation does not come within section 92 of the British North American Act, which gives to the Province the power to legislate in regard to property and civil rights. The court discussed at length the question as to whether the Province had power under sub-section 16 ofthe above Act, which gives to the Province the power to pass legislation in regard to matters of a purely local and private nature within the Pro, Vince. The court held that the enact-f moms contained in Liquor Prohibition! Act were more than matters of a purely local and private nature, that they interfered with mattera of tradm and commerce, which concerned thoi Dominion at large, and in this way), infringed upon the powers oi the Dru-l minion in regard to trade and com-1 mercu. _ The Act was, therefore, declared unconstitutional and void. r The step taken by Hon. Hugh John ‘Mncdonaid during " brief term of Eower in Monitobu in bringing in a rohibition Bill for the province. adds one more to the abortive anemia to introduce prohibitory liquor exis- lation. This time the Act ban been set, aside owing to its unconstitution- ality. Judges KiOrm Bain and Richards being unanimous in their decision. _ MANITOBA PROHIBITION Losses daring the year...... ......
