Mr. Turgeon, president of the Quebec legislative council, has replied to Armand Levergne respecting the purchase of land by one Dussault, and alleged to belong to the Harbour Com- missioners. Mr. Turgeon's vindication is complete though tardy. The land did not belong to the crown or com- mission, and Mr, Turgeon purchased a part of it inf business transaction, The *"'Gobe's" Quebec correspondent fo Mr. Turgeon's explanation "has n accepted by the conservatives as well as liberals, who frankly admit that he has been badly used hy his | teaducers." The law ~ or condition which exempts a member of parliament from prosecution for slander is grossly abused. Mr. Lavergne, one of Bouras- #a's pets, was audacious in his states {ment about Mr. Turgeon. The well known purity of the ex-minister saved him from some the injury which would have followed under ordinary the assault is unquestionable, and it should not be allowed to pass unno- ticed. Mr. Levergne owes it to = the house, to himself, and to the decenciea of debate to offer Mr. Turgeon an ample and sufficient apology, VERY ARBITRARY OFFICIALS.

Se ------------ MAKING A CLEAN SWEEP. Mr. Miller, the chairman of the Anti-Gambling Committee, has insert- ed a clause in the bill which is de signed to put an end to gambling un- der any circumstances. The clause re< ferred to provides that any man who "records or registers any bet or wager, or sells any pool upon the re- sults, (a) of any political or municipal election, (b), of any race, (c) of any contest or trial of skill or endurance of man or beast," becomes liable for a year's imprisonment or to a fine of $1,000. This, says a contemporary,.is re- gorded as an interference with the liberty of the individual. It surely is. But any law is an interference which says "Thou shalt not," when the dis- position is to do the very thing which is thus forbidden. The race course is not the only place where the betting is carried on openly, flagrantly, ruinously. Hockey is becoming as exciting ns a horse race, and betting upon results is occasioning as wild a resort to money making by chance as anything that can be suggested. Betting is a craze, and-something (weighty [there was a surrender, and the plans, weighs about 200 pounds. The same gentleman, "jumped upon' the proposal to look into and report upon the labour question. Does this to, mean that the leader of the govern- ment has no use or sympathy ~ with all- the workingmen ? Mr. Fripp, M.P.P, elected as a i supporter of the Whitney government, bas intimated that there is a limit to the docility of the average member of the house, and that unless there is more independence - there will be a third party. ¥t is understood that Sir James Whitney sat up and 100k notice as he had a right to do. So -------- A LAST APPEAL Made to Kingstonians to Encourage Enterprise, Kingston is on the eve of an im- portant polling day when its property owners are asked to ide whether they want this city to have one of the best concerns that has ever been offer- ed to this city, or whether some other city shall be bevefited by a shipbuild- ing plant that Ki failed to ap- preciate. It is, therefore, important that every qualified voter should calm- ly, iously and finally weigh the case in the balance of their own judgment and settle once for all whether the old Limestone City is to grow by adding industries to ite muni oocupy a position of splendid com- mercial isolation among the cities of Ontario that are growing by leaps and bounds ? Here are the cold, hard, con- crete and honest facts regarding the dry dock proposition : must be done to check it. The com- mons' committee has exposed it, in the losses and the crimes the race is not responsible for all the follies to | which young men are subject. The | plan is to put a stop to the habit of betting on everything, on the contests | in which men or beasts are engaged, and the prevention of the one .is as reasonable as the prevention of the *| other. Interference with the -indivi- dual ? It is time something inter- vened to correct one of the greatest evils of the day. NOTES.

It should be printed in pam: phlet form and circulated among the labour unions, a : Sade ' cise was hot provided, and hence the erection and equipment of a gym: nadium at an expense of over $7,000, The time spent in the gymnasium is taken from the clas study, and so much physical exercise is prescribed by the regulations that the more im- portant work is scamped. Against this teachers, pupils and parents have! good reason to protest. The seco defect is the want of accommodation. Now the Board "of Education does. not see its way to dsk the council for $20,000 with which to erect a wing to the institute, nor does there seem to be any necessity for it. But more room must be had or the school go without the "approval" and all that it implies. With all the facts before it the council will have to act as the circumstances suggest. © A GREAT ELECTRIC SCHEME. |" The engineers of the government de partmen's have reported with regard to the scheme of the St. Lawrence Power company, and they remove some of the objections which formerly existed. The integrity of the Corn: wall canal is preserved, and the ex- istence of so much power, 600,000 horse, means a trememdlous develdp- 'ment of industrial wealth. But some things have got to be done to safe guard the public interests. A huge lock, 1,000 feet long, be low Hollow Quoins, 80 fet wide | and 25 feet deep, must be put on the Cendlan side; a timber slide and piers must be erected for the pro fection of the lumber industry, the location and position of the power house and dam on the Canadian -side will have to be adjusted; guarantees given that board Me and frazil will not be allowed to form at the head of the dans Canada must have fifty por cout. of the power, held in re serve if not put to use, and the gov- ernments of Canada and the United States must be agreed upon the work and have entire supervision of it. { The report removes some of the ob ,secticns to the project but leaves it so that parisment will have to se- viously consider every detail.
