"satanic Grits," "sneaking Grits so easily known by their clamonr and ignorance," "intruding enemies spying out," " Grits with whom it was a matter of conscience not to converse," "Radical Grits in the Orange camp," "By the blood of your forc- fathers, &e.--tgreat laughter and 'sing')"-. "eworn to oppose political popery,""tnqw port Conservative candidates," &c. He then profeodeAto. read from the reports of Grand ( Lodges, in which were statements to the " , feet that " no Grit could be a goon Orange- lman,"" had no legitimate business in an lOrange lodge," " could not freely discuss questions at tho time of a general election," " time now arrived when Orangemen should be welded into one solid phalanx with a platform," " to be the duty of every County Master to submit the platform to all candi- dates, and if none found to subscribe to it _ then the County Lodge to bring, out a can didate of its own," "I regret being from home 6th Dec. to 14th Feb. , (1874) last, iighting the battles of our party (a general election was in pro- , grass them," " the Con.wrvative principles l of our Order," " so far forgot themsclves as Ito ally with tho .Urit republican party," I"lodges would be declared right to espcl l from the Order those who did not support their political, 3:0,," tt vote to expel those who make a political alliance with lloman Catholics," "shall indicate the policy in po- litical elections," "deal with the offending brother (who had voted for n Fenian sym. pathiser)," " Resolved, "l'hat the policy be indicated in each Province on the eve of every general election,' " " shall indi- cate which, it' any, of the candidates is en. titled to the support of the Association," (extract from the report of the G rand Lodge of America.) He then read extracts regard- ing expulsions: Daniel Murray, "polled for voting for U'Dunohoe, 13H ; also Samuel Parker for same cause; ratilicd by l the Grand Lodge. This showed that. stale. , ments to the contrary, rtotwithctandinrr, ox. pulsions had taken plat-e fur rohtirul ' reasons and been tutitivd. In his own ' election tuo of the brethren had been ex- oting the words of eminent statesmen in the Mother Country. That assertion Was broadly denied. After that debate delegates had gone across the Atlantic, whence he had received reports of their pro- ceedings and political doings. The bulk of Orangemen were Conservatives, and the rarest bird to find in the Grand Lodge wasa Reformer. They Were all active, zealous, and more than zealous, supporters of hon. gentlemen opposite and their friends at Ottawa. His assertion at the discussion re- ferred to that the body hero was just as on the other side of the Atlantic was met with asimilar general denial. Now he would, read to them proofs of the truth of his assertions. He then read from the Glasgow Herald of 19th July, 1873, Dr. Potter's reso- f lution tsffirming the body to be " a religio- i political" .,body. Dr. Oronhyatckha's re- marks, that" they did not in their lodges discuss political subjects, but when they came to vote they voted all one way," were .quoted from the Worth British Daily Mail. He then read from the Patriot of Oct. 15, 1873, remarks of a Bro. P. McCormack at a dinner,said remarks being in an artiele entitled " The increase of Orangeism in Ayrshire." He preceeded to supplement these excerpts by further extracts from the Patriot, Glasgow News, Belfast News, to, identifying the Conservative press with Orangeism, and asserting the existence of religious and political objects side by side. Coming nearer home, he read from the Hamilton Spectator, tlty Patriot, the Mail, Reports, Area, Ac., Which alluded to the "traitor Grita," That All the words in the motion atter A':",', be struck out, and Inncad then st tin. fullowin n.1,. stituted:--"No notice of tho intention to apply to this Home for an Act to incorporato the Orange Associa- tion at Eastern and Wmu-rn Ontario has bum pub- lidwd cm." in the ontario (Audie or any min r pup"; that tho only "one" which m any nnmxcr could be said to haw rul'utuzn-e to such an inttmumt "puma in on. was" to law been publuhod in polled and nevur been reinstated. All these things considered, he came to the conclusion that the hon. gentlunnn was ins paled upon the horn at his own cxrusc. He then moved in mncndmunt, seconded by Mr. O'Donoghue ..-. wns an objection to incorporation? If it was right to give them corporation under A general Act it was right to do so bye special Act. His hen. friend had addressed his co-religionist triends from the floor of the llouse, and no one had denied him his right, and were they going to deny others a similar right? He had no y1itnushgainst his hon.friend, and no particular love for the prim, ciples of the body. lie ridiculed the idea of no notice being uiVen, when for sax sessions this question had been raised. The object of notice was to warn those interested, but whom othertlmnthe hodiesthemselves were affected by this Went of notice? Would his hon. friend have voted for the Bill if the notice had been given? daughter.) Ho would support the hon.mcmber for Leeds. Mr. IIODGI N 5 said that the promoters of this Bill had disregarded the rules ot the House, and he proceeded to say that when an opportunity of explaining themSelves Was offered them they did not avail them.. Mr. Ill-1TH UNIS could not agree with the logic ofhis hon. friend. Either it "a; a. political or a religious corporation. If it were " political organization it could be incorporated. This Legislature hudincor- porated a C'onservative club. He (the Speaker) as a Grit was quite willing to give them incorporation. There was no con- stitutional reason why the body should not be incorporatedithe' country was a free country. The. grundrst feeling in a country alter all was 1olcration, and this Was simply a matter of tolerntion. What would become of Reform Associations, if having an object reporttwd upon by "id.Corurnittee to this House; that none of the rules of this House n-lating to Private Hills have bum complied with by said promoters, and, therefore, it nppunn to this Home that the de- lay m making said urigiual motion and the non-com- pliance with the rule! of this Home in respect to said proposed In" are inexcusable. to-dar, bring the forty-eighth day of the nos-ion. tho rules of thttt House t equire that it be referred to ma [standing Com- mittee on Prints Bills, but before such Committee could consider such Bill it must be printed and dig. trouted to members, and tive clear days' notice of the tune of considering the same by said Committee be posted up in thelobby; that the last day for re- porting upon Private, Bill: by laid Committee expir~ ed upon the fiftoettth day of February instant, and, therefore, any Bill Only introduced and read I that time an, day cannot run: regularly be cgnsidcred or I nor-ton.
