CAPT RE/tD'S AMENDMENT.

V \\'e do not suppose thntainy_ Legisla- ture in this world, und certainly not the

Legislature of Prince l<Idwairl would pass the aineiidiiicnt proposed by Cup! Read to the City lighting Bill. And we do not hold Cupt. Read responsible for itsplirusc- nlogy. and we rissume, whether rightly or wrongly, thrit the riinendrnent has

been drawn hy more interested parties und pluced ln his hands.

The first and second clauses are open to

serious objections. The first clause is not quite intelligible, hut it seems' to f0i'bid

the r-ity levying rates or constructing electric light works until it has first by hyluw fixed nprlce for the present light-

ingplnnt and notiilcrl the Company of the smite, or until the Company luis

ricreptcd such price rnidtlie money has been prtirl,or until the Company has rip poiiiterlrin ui-l»iti'utru‘, ami so ou. But ri-tlicre is not-liiiir: to compel tire Coni- pany _ to appoint such arbitrator, or to enrihle the City to pro- ceed \\'ith0ut such appointniciit being niride, the Company niigrlit. sinipl_v ict inutters rm, neither ricceptiiig the pricc offered noi~1ippoirit.liir,f:in rirbltrritor.

and the city conld not proceed ri _siiigle stop further. It would lic simply "held

np.

The second c‘riuse provides that the

nrbitrritors, when appointed shrill deter-

iiiiiicatheynlue of the Light rinrl Power t`.onipany`s works, “having regard to

wlint the annie works would cost if the works should he then constructed on the

property then bought, nnd such nmonnt so ascertained shrill be the amount. \vhicli

the urbitrrit0r.=: shall nwnrd as the price to be ullo\verl for the snid works and pro' perty." This ohinsc is, ns we have said. too rihsurd to lic seriously entertained hy ri body of honest legislators. It simply .mmhhmLmLUimCmmmwjhm_iiapairl_ for their old plrint and _works what it would cost to replncc the Hiiiiie with new works ! Surely wr- lirive not yet coriie to

n. stage- wlicre such ri proposal can br- scriously 1-onsidcrerl hy le\'c~l-liriiilc-rl,

honest men.

dayevciiiiighiiiectlng that he hurl 0_nl_v recently received n crtr-lorid -of flour ordered in .\'ovr-mher lust and which criinc to lirind tive months lifter date of

shipment l`rnni Ontririo. Persons in this

city rind in various parts of thc l’r0vinc|-. me now 'cceiviiig goods which lirivc liticn nt l’ir~tou three months or more. This

sort of thing is helping to give rin impetus

to the Tunnel movement. `

The meeting: nt Sonris on 'i`hursdny

evening to hear the report ofthe Ottawn delegates was a very henrty and promis- ing one. Mr. McQuai'rie, ICC. was unable tortttend, being otherwise occupir-d by rin urgent. professional engugeiiient, inrich to the regret of his codelegrites rind those wliorittended the meeting. A plc-rising feuture was the attendance of ii goodly

conipnny of the ladies of Souris, who listened with the same earnest atteiition ns their ninscuiine fric-nrls. if the Souris ineoting |ii’i'ords

any fliir test of the feeling in King`s County. it is now evident that the cantcrii section of thc Province is quite ns licrirty in its support.oftl\e Tunnel as are the .people of the centre or the west. In fact the movement ls now beyond question tiiorouiililyprovinciiil nlirl is r\vcrywhere growing in strength nnfi volume.

PROHlBlT-ION AMENDMENTS.

Dot-li the Ministeriiil und Opposition

sidi-s of the liouse are to he lienrtily com- mended for the support given to the main features of tiie amendments to the

Prohihitory Liquor Law as asked for;

The pijovisidns to render the scrircli warrruit- clause effective, and to compel the tcstiinony of persons arrested for drunkenness its to where they obtained their' liquor, must be of great service in securing thc easier and better enforce- ment of the lriw in the future.

\\'e have grave doubts however in

regard to the following new provision:

Nothing in this Act contained shrill

prohibit the srilc by legally qualified ciieinist-s rind druggists of drugs or incdir-incs mixed wit-li nic-oliol or spirit-

uouls liquors for purely iiierlicinul pui~- poses.

Whether standing iilonc, or rerirl in

connection with thc riincndmciits to snh-
