announcement the Federal Parliament of Canada open ed its for yesterday at Ottawa when His the Governor in delivered the from the Throne ilicrc the usual display of fuss and and the Senate Cham presented a- fashionable assemblage in court attire It is understood Sir Mackenzie has requested Hon Mr Foster to Itad in the House of Commons who has accepted the re sponsible position True Sir thought lie ought lo have been named for that post and he was hacked up by the Hon Minister of but his little kick only furnished another example of his over weaning vanity as the Finance Minister is way his superior and will make a popular leader Although the from the Throne foreshadows a limited number of subjects for legislation its most important features relate to the con ference with delegates from New foundland respecting the union of that Colony with the Canadian Con federacy and the Manitoba school question Ministerial journals in timate that the session Kill be a short one Beyond these two latter issues and the passage of the estimates the Government program presents little for Parliament to do On the other hand it is reported in the corridors of the House that the Opposition are elated at the events have taken of late and will show fight all along the line Hon Mr health has greatly improved during the past month and he is in excellent spirits and as it is the last session before the general elections his side of the House will endeavor to make it more than ordinarily uncomfortable for those on the Treasury Benches The Opposi tion therefore consider a short session out of the question 1 On Tuesday last the first session of the eighth legislature of Ontario was prorogued in the usual form after JieutOovemor had given assent to the various Bills passed the House Although the Speech from the Throne at the opening of the lession did not fore cast a amount of legislation we now find at the close that it has been rather more active than otherwise No less than Bills have passed into law of these are private and public measures Changes n the election law abolition of the Agri culture and Aits Act at the close of the present year and placing Societies under direct control of the of Agriculture abolition of the Farmer Institute amend ment of the Came Laws shortening the open season permission to gen eral merchants to sell patent medi cinesa Law Reform Bill which makes Important change in matters of appeal and also does away with the divisions of the High Court an Electric Railway Act providing spe cial legislation to govern electric rail ways amending the Jury Act so that ten jurors can give a verdict in im portant Government Bills to which the Lieut Governor gave Ids assent the bills by the House the one proposing to amend the Medical Act and another to make it illegal for a member of the Assem bly to accept and use a railway pass both Introduced by the Patrons perhaps Use most important The question of appointing county also received an given the till next a motion to these official under direct control and appointment by County Councils down by an emphatic majority Meat According to a New York press despatch last Monday as a result of the cattle market combine in Chicago Easter meat was scarce In the former and both rich and poor felt the pressure serious ly When purchasers told that choice and roasts were told from to cents per pound and that cheap pieces which ordin arily sold from to ranging all the way from to cents there was Indeed very much complaining Many bought other or poultry as a consequence and hotels and boding houses se duced the rations The story goes a an for this that the oper ators of the beef comer w at Chi cago have wiped out profits which is sure In bankruptcy and Canada cant give but little assistance Even if the present duly of 2d per cent were the American of days practically shuts out Canadian cattle but if the authorities Washington should remove the quarantine as Is now talked Of Canada cant do much to the combine at Chicago as dealers information that avail able meat In light from this Domin ion Is only to cent in ad year The fact still remains however that unless some thing special Is done to release the market New by a large increase in the supply the chances arc that meat will advance rather than secede In price for some time to come The despatch goes on to say that the poorer localities in extreme cast and west sides of the city suffer the most but consumers in of life arc complain ing of the greatly increased prices of steaks and j all of which
