' 5 Tm; QUei:.\"s Srx:_r.cn or: me Iiusn Question.-`In the speech from the Throne at the opening of the British Parliament on Thursday, the Queen thus treats of the Irish question : There has been a gradual though not very rapid improvement in the trade of the country, and I am now en- abled to entertain more favorable expecta- tions of the revenue for the year than I could from its commencement. The antici- pation with Which I last addressed you of the diminution of distress in Ireland, owing to the abundant harvest, was realized; but I grieve to state that the social condition of the country has assumed an alarming character. Agrarian crimes in general have multiplied far beyond the experience of recent years. Attempts upon life have not grown in the same proportion as other offences ; but I must add that efforts are being made for personal protection far be- yond all former precedent, by the police under the direction of the executive. I have to_ notice other evils more widely spread. The administration of justice has been frustrated with respect "to these offen- ':es through `the impossibility of procuring evidence, and an extended system of ter- ror has thus been established in various parts of the country, which has paralyzed almost alike the exercise of private rights and the performance of civil duties. This state of things is new "in some important respects, and hence, with little, available guidance` from former precedent, I have deemed it right to put in use the ordinary powers of law before_ma.king any new de- mand; but the demonstration of their in- sniciency, amply supplied by the present circumstances of the country, leads me now to appriseyou that proposals will be im- mediately submitted to you for entrusting me with additional powers necessary in my judgment not only for the vindication of order and public law, but likewise to secure on behalf of my subjects protection for hfe and property, and personal liberty of action, subject to the primary and imperi- ous obligation to which I have just `refer- :-h Arnnhtinnn in Anni:-A nnl-.

I continue to desire not less than ` heretofore to prosecute the removal of grievances and to work legislative improve~ meni: in Ireland, as well as in Great Brit- ain.

Mr. McCarthy stated that if the bill passed the House he su posed thatit would apply to all railways an syndicates, Govern- ment as well as all others; It was the same, with very few alterations, as the bill which he introduced last session. He had not then brought it to a second readiiig, as he did not think it wise, liaviug regard to . the important subjects with which it pro- posed to deal, to press it unduly, He thought it better that full opportunity should be given to the country to consider whether a Railway Commission was neces- sary or not. He believed that on the whole the bill was received with very consider- able public favour. He was in receipt of many communications urging him to bring the bill before the House during the present session. and he would test the opinion of the House on the subject on the second , reading. The bill proposed to constitute a court of Ilailivay Commissioners appointed by the Governor-in-Council, one to be a railway expert, and anothera lawyer or} other person skilled in law The qualica- tions of the third were not dened. Thus the Commissioners would have it in their. power to deal with all matters regulating tratiic arrangcinents anddiiliculties between railway coiiipaiiies, individuals, inonopoli- sts. or municipalities, and with all matters of th s Lind. All the powers now p.sscss- ! ed by the Railway Committee ofithe Privy ; Council would be transferrecl to the Com-_: mission. The bill was copied very largely i from the Euglisli statute, which he believ- ed had been in force since 1873, and which he thought he was safe in saying had given satisfaction to all except the railway com- ; panics. No doubt passages could be cited l and articles found finding fault with the working of the Railway Commission in England, but at the same time he held a ' statement made by Viscount Sandon, late 1 Commissioner of the Board of Works. who i stated, as a member of the Government of ! Lord lleaconseld, that in his opinion the law had given satisfaction. and that the! Goveriiuient of which he was a member; proposed, at an early day, not merely to I extend the law, which in England wasl limited to a certain period, but also to eon- l fer larger and additional powers on tliei Railway Commissioners. V'isr.ount Sandon believcd-that the law was highly valued bv the commercial community. In the-l States this subject had also undergone very i great consideration. Only last year a 1 very full report was presented-to the New ' York Assembly, in which the results, after , evidence had been taken on the present; system and the needs of legislation, were 3 briey summarized. The committee re-E ported among matters requiring legislation,` and prohibition the liberty of charging more for short than for long hauls, the granting of preferential rates, the making of secret rates, and giving drawbacks and ! rebates. The committee thought that I legislation might safely goto this extent ' without infringing theproper discretion , and elasticity of management which rail- ~* way managers must of necessity possess, l or in the slightest degree infringing upon , the vested rights of railway property. It 2 seemed that tlieso wrongs might be ameli- orated, if not corrected, by introducing the : public element_ into the consideration of l these questions, and giving public interests l the consideration which the evidence show- i ed they did not new ceivc. About the same time the report of the committee to which this matter was referred was sub- mitted to Congress. It was needless to say that the evils under which we laboured regarding undue preference given by rail- way companies, and arrangements and secret bargains made, existed much more largely across the border than here. It would be in the recollection of members of the House that railway companies were I s i -particularly active last session in present- ing petitions agsinst this bill, to which also -y their organs in the press were very zealous- I ly opposed. But they must remember that the railways had now become the great highways of commerce, and had taken the `place of the ordinary Queen's highway,- which was always under the control of the Crown or governing body, whatever it might be; and it was absurd to say that because these companies had constructed these roads they were to be above and be- yond all legislation-(Mr. Blake-Hear, liear)-and beyond the controlof Parlia- ment. From time to time members of the House must see that the rights which had been delegated to the l'a.ll\\'ay5 were not used mainly and chiey in the public in- -(Mr. Blake---Hear, hear.) And therefore he introduced this bill, which at the proper stage could be fully discussed. There was no doubt that in many cases these companies charged exorbitant rates. (Mr Blake-Hear, hear.) It was true that there was copied into the Railway Act a provision which was found in the English Act, he thought as early as 1840, which empowered "the Court of Common Pleas to carry what was termed the equality clause into force.. But while we had an equality clause in substance we had no V riers ` of the country ` wple ofithe` country, eit be thnsudealt with.- '1` e means to enforce it. He knew, and thought it was probably within the knowledge of nfost members, that these companies at times undertook to crush some places and benet others. He would notat present state that they attempted to injure indi- vidnals, but they did attempt to injure towns, and villages by giving other towns and villages secret rates and preferences. Recently one railwaycoinpany had thre it- ened the projector of a rural enterprise by water communication. that if this was car- ried out they would cut in winter against the locality which he proposed to serve by cheaper rates in summer. This was not right, and ought not to be inthe power of common carriers, which hadbecouie, under the necessities of the ease, the absolute car- The, enormous amount of moneyinvested inrailways might be urged as a reason wli the ~ should not _ ouse should certainly. treat these companies. with all tenderness, but he observed by the lsstre-' port of railway statistics -that out of 8360,- 000,000 invested in railwa enterprises the _ V through the verninents`, Dominion or Decal, orjniuni. eiiialities, contributed `than 390 . i . ~ This was a ve_i`-ygraat reason wliy l I- _ ;;,soqia.s..s;nho.m J mven-to these corporations was-at I In the House of Commons on tWednca- day of last week Mr. McCarthy introduced a. bill `to constitute 8 court of Railway Commissioners for Canada and to amend the Consolidated Railway Act of 1879. .
