It appeared that the postpone- ment. was, in aeevral cases, actually con- wnient to the colonial Ministers. More- over, all had the interests of the Em. pire at heart. Both motherland and col- onim would desire that these periodic conferences should be kept clear of Brit- ish party passions. which were always excited try a general election. When the conference met in 1907 it would be free and unfettered, and it would be open to colonial Ministers to bring forward any question, or to advise any proposal which seemed to afford a prospect oi more intimate eo.ordiantion and closer union of the various wide- spread dependencies of the Crown. No doubt the colonial represemtives at tho conference would receive from their respective Governments precise instructions as to the proposals they were authorized to put forward or ac- cept. 1tereesent.ttivtt of the Home Government. would also receive precise instruction. The nature of those in- ouuctoina depended upon the wishes and feelings of the nurse: of the British people.

This clause can be enforced before any Magis- trate or Justice of the Peace. It is also provided in the same act that "the cost of the loan," a phrase which has often been used in deceptive ways to the financial detriment of the borrower, means the whole cost, but does not include actual disbursements for legal charges, such as those of the 1leT,r,istrar of Deeds, the Master or Local Master of Titles, Clerk of the County Court, the Sheriff or the Trea- <urer of a. municipality where it is neeeamry to file papers, make searches. or otherwise transact business with the officials mentioned, for which they are allowed a fee.
