Auese powers were exercised by the Locâ€" ’nl authoritiies before Confederation. Unâ€" _der the Constitation they are assignel to the Local Legislatures, By those Legisâ€" latures they have been exercised for 16 years. No decision of any Court has yet held that they were wrongly or illegally exercised. Even Sir Joha Macdonald will hesitate before he invades the exclusive jurisdiction of the Local Legislatures to seize upon matters over which under the ~C fre very mach mistaken if the of the various Provinces will much submit to such continued attacks their Provincial rights. i ize such restrictions. Again, the | matter of trade and commerce is | the Dominion jurisdiction only in | as it is not affected by the police ,’ tions made by the Local Legis \ These have certain powers over "tr | commerce," as for instance. the ny., Constitution they have control, we are very much mistaken if , 2. The regulation of trade of commerce, | 26. The criminal law. | _ Now with regard to the last we may ’ simply say, that if the Dominion Parliaâ€" | ment can make avything a crime it can | practically get possession of all the civil | rights exclusively assigned to the Local ! Legislatures. Those Legislatures have the | power to deal with police regulations and | to impose fines for a breach of the laws. ‘ Municipalities have power, for instance to | prevent the sule of liquor on Bunday, and P se enR of trading on Sunday and of selling liâ€" quor within prescribed hours. To that exâ€" tent "trade and commerce" are under the supervision. â€" The object of any restrictions on the liquor traffic, too, is not the regvlaâ€" tion of trade. ‘There are ecores of matters dealt with every session by our own Legisâ€" Inture which effect trade and commerce fir more directly than does any restriction on the liquor traffic. l Acw, according to the principles of conâ€" , Struction laid down by the Privy Comncil | in the case of "Citizens‘ Insurance Comâ€" pany y. Parsons," we have first to deter mine whether the power to regulate the liquor traffic comes within any of these elanses. ‘That both powers come nnder every one of the sections we have quoted is evident to the most casual reader, They were enjoyed, as we have pointed out, by lt.he municipalities at Confederation, and express provision is made in the 9th snb. section for the preservation of "Tavern and shop licenses" as a source of revenue for *"*Provincial, local, or municipal purposes," They refer to property and civil rights within the Province, and are Strictly of a local nature. â€" In the second place,we have to determine, according to the construction already mentioned, whether they fall also ( within the enumerated classes of subjects in section 91, as belonging to the Domâ€" ‘ ivion â€" Parliament. _ The only â€" two it will "be pretended that uw Elc .. ince. !' And we are convinced that were the | question brought betore the Privy Council it will be found that, as is now generally ‘ supposed, the power of license and the poâ€" wer to regulate the liquor traffic belong to the Local Legislatures, â€" Before Confederâ€" ation both these powers were exereised by the municipalities. It could not have been the intention of the framers of the British | North America Act to take away such pow-{ ers ana leave them with the general powâ€" ers conferred on the Dominion. Nor does | the Act do so, By the 92nd section the! Local Legislatures are given the power to legislate "exclusively"in matters pertaining l ta*__ ! to make a fresh attack upon the powers | that for sixteen years have been supposed 'to belong the Local Legislatures under the | 92ud section of the British North America | Act. .

Gray‘s reply was for him to keep quiet and his dredging would be done for him. Witness related bow he came to be conneeted with Snake‘s dsclarâ€" ation,. On one occasion Charles For, the inspector, had endeavoured to brike witâ€" nees to keep quict about harbour mutters. Witness surd that hbe sull firmly believed Suake‘s story to be true. In reply the plaintiff, John Pearson, was ealled, and gave evidence at great lenyth, He denied Brow‘s story in toto, and said that great public dissatisfaction bad existâ€" ed in Owen Sound with the way the harâ€" bour work was being carried on, and the River and Harbour Committee bad been Irying to get at the bottom of the affair. All the steps be had taken in tris matler bad been eanctioned by the Committee, and the Town Council had provided counâ€" sel for the defence of Suzke in the forthâ€" coming trial for perjury. Witness gave an entirely different version of the brush story, and said that both he aad his son were too busy to tike the brush contract, and only agreed to draw a few loads at the earnest solicitation of Mr. Gray. This elosed the evidence for the deâ€" fence. Fred Brown, one of the drodge‘s crew overheard plaintiff telling the nien that when he went to Snake to find out about irregluarities in the harbour works Snake knew nothing about it, but he pressed Sunke to refresh his memory and said he woild come to him again, He was asked in relation to some chamâ€" pagne which was on board the tug at the time of Sir Hertor Lungevin‘s yisit, and stated that thres or four cases of chamâ€" pagne had Leen sent by Capt.

Canan in the matter of the scowload returns. In crostâ€"examin« ation Mr Gray was asked by Mr. Creasor whether he was not the author of the libeb in question, but refused to answer on the ground that he was not bound to incriminâ€" ate himself. On the same ground he reâ€" fused to say whether he was the author of m similar article seut to auuther paper. _ Charles Fox, Inspector of the harbour works, swore that he kept a correct tally of all the seow loads during the period in question, except during two days when ha was disabled by an accident, and that he never allowed Canan to see his entries, and that Snake‘s statement was false. He adâ€" mitted that he had been suspended for alâ€" lowing piles to be put in the hurbour workse that were not according to specifications, but said that he was entirely new to the work. dredging and piling works in the hntbowe, swore that there had been no wrong countâ€" ing of the seow loads, and that Buake‘s declaration was entirely false in that reâ€" pect, and that he and Fox had never compared tallies, as also alleged . by Suake, â€"_ _0 °* C 206, 70 MAKe a fnise nfidavit, the contents of which were prejudicial to th« officials in question, implie.ling the eo1. tractor and the Government inspector in & conspiracy together to defrand the Governâ€" ment by sending in false reports of werk performed.
