those legislators who have predicted short and session ought to be realized Fully two weeks time has already been saved by the action ot the House on Thursday in adopting the address in reply to the from the Throne without a and Acrimonious debate The osten sible reason advanced by the Opposi tion for the adoption of this was the death of our beloved and wideawake con Sovereign Lady the late

Whitney gave out that they had merely held a fellowship meeting I had not outlined any Opposition policy Be that as it may it certainly must navy been a hardship to the Demosthenes the and the of the Opposition to their annual ef fort to demonstrate a public and every mem ber on the left is Orator from Of course this silence cannot continue to expect a Tory out of office to hold his peace would be to expect the impossible and doubtless there will be the usual amount of wild opposition any and all measures brought in by the Government And when as it sometimes happens there comes along a measure that even His Majestys Loyal Opposition cannot consistently oppose they turn and tell an incredulous Province that the mea sure was stolen from them The Government of Mr Ross took the measure of Mr Whitney and his colleagues on the left many moons ago but that measure was too small to make even a decent amendment to the Ditches and Water Course Act This rear it cannot he said that the Government presented a meagre bill of fare in the Speech from the Throne and even the tobeexpected carping criticism of the Opposition press Is absent this year With the striking of the Committees this coming

in many cities and coun tries the In one city of ten thousand inhabitants they had dia mond shaped cards by the hundred printed with the inscription Vote against the saloon for my sake Colored ribbons were used as loops and the children were asked to wear them on their coats to and from school We can readily believe that the plan elicited much opposition and ridi cule but the interest created by

has been made in the Mr was intro duced to the House on the previous day by Hon Davis and the fact is Mr Davis takes more than a passing interest in his Teutonic col league from Berlin Mr Davis and Mr are in the same line business outside of the Legislature and when Mr first offered himself as a candidate in May Mr Davis worked nobly on his be half and had the pleasure of witness ing his election Then the Conserva tives protesting the election it was voided on the proving of some petty irregularities on the of some of the wouldbe friends of the whose zeal outran their discretion Finally last

injur ed All that remained of the sleigh was a mass of splinters There were Just thirteen in the party have a place in their society who has not sufficient selfrespect to shun the saloon Be very sure dear girls that if lie has not the determination to abstain from that which can drag him down below the level of the beasts his respect for you and your society is no greater for himself anil that is nil I was deeply pained to hear not long ago that at a certain week- night meeting in a church a party of young men decidedly under the in fluence of liquor came in and so far from their unseemly actions arousing the pity or disgust of some young girls girl too who claim to be sincere in their efforts toward a high er life their smiles and recognition only incited the others to greater ex hibitions of imbecility Thinking this over in their sober hours could these young men really feel any respect for the ones who so winked at this proof that they were tost to all sense of what was due to their house so profaned and themselves No greater mistake can be made by any girl than to marry a drinking man with the hope of reforming him or even associating with him with that object in view
