It was proposed and projecâ€" ted by Mr. Chamberlain and consists of 68 leading representatives of the trade and commerce of Great Britain. Its purpose is to ascertain facts bearing on the wisdom of changing the Free trade policy ot Britain. |___â€"The Legisiature was oFened last i Thursday with great eclat, Lieutâ€"Gov. | Clark having introduced some spectacâ€" , ular features, unused for years. _ The formalities over, new members introâ€" duced, and the sEeechcs of the mover and seconder of the address made, the House adjourned till Monday. _ Mr. Whitney opened his criticism on the address in a vigorous speech, which was r&p!ied to by Premler Ross in his most effective style. Mr Whitney Jjusâ€" tifiles the Lieutâ€"Gov. for calling the House, thus differing from a number of Conservative papers. _ His cheif point of attack was that the House had men called to head off election trials, but the premier showed that on many o¢â€" casions both in Ontario and in the Doâ€" minion, parliament had been called and election petitions unsettled. Twitâ€" ted with the Globe and its " barnacle" charges he made a slashing rejoinder, *‘Many a good ship with a valuable cargo has come to port with barnacles l on it, but little is ever expected from a ship with an unskilfual captain and a pirate on board.‘"‘ This sally will not be forgotten for some time. certaiuly try to carry into the camâ€" paign the same principles.

Man after man has been found who swears be did not yote, yet his name is on the poll book as having done so, men absent from the city and even dead men yoted, and now the ery is who is the criminal. and at least one deputy has been arrested for conâ€" niving at the business if not actually engaged in it. Then an ex alderman, of high standing, named Burns, has been discoyered to have voted at more | than one place, and he blames the officers, for making false entries, while they tiaim they know him â€"well. Fiom Mayor Urquhart â€" downwards there is a cry for punishment and Juadge Winchester has the situaiion in charge. ‘The absence of a numbered ballot is regretted at this Juneture, tor by its means a sure hand would have been placed on the criminals.

Not to be baflged the government of the Territories introâ€" duced an amendment to the Game Act, making Sunday a "Close Season‘‘ fir all gameand birds under its protection throughout the year. _ ‘Thus the govâ€" ernment repaired the breach and both sides of the House applanded and gave unanimous approval. _ Not so slow. â€"Surday hunting and shooting in the N.

Germany is asking from Canada fayorcd nation treatment or her export trade here will be lost. It will be remembered that when Canada granted a preference to Britain, Germany was offended, and withdrew tariff favors from Canada.
