Q membership of 213 in the popular Cham- ‘ber, and an Executive of 16, only 1.4 of whom have seats in the Commons. In Ontario there are eight members of the Cabinet in a House of 93 members.

There are now about 7(1) subordinate or- ganizations, or courts as they are called, througnout Canada, and the order is new 'well established in all-the provinces of the Dominion and through the territories.

But our counties, so longj used to the large and equal representation of three members each in the Executive, would be reluctant to have this iiumberf reduced more than one third, orto two, members each inlthe Government of the' time. _This would leave an Executive off six-quite large enough in all reason.‘ But this would still form too large a' proportion in a House of L8, such as Mrs Haszard proposes. ` _ We are of opinion that with a 'view secure the best results a House of 24- eight members for each county-and an: Executive of six,-would be worth trying. 5 But if the House should be reduced to l8§ uw the Executive oughtnotto exceed four,é f .
