Mr. Mowat -It is not the intention of

Tne following Bills were introduced and

Mr. Guthrie-Reepeoting gravel roads

Mr. Conmee-To authorize the Town of

Mr.. Mowat-Reepeoting certain duties,

Mr. Mowat-Reepeoting the sale of real
estate by personal representatives.'
Mr. Mowat -To remove certain wee
from County Courts to the High Courts.
Mr. Mowat said he thought there would
be no objeotion to reading this bill a second
time. It consisted of three parte. The first
part applied to the people palled Qaakors.
The law was supposed to authorize the
performance of marriage by Quakers in the
same manner as other religious bodies. It
now appears that a few word° in the law
lidiited the officers of the Booiety of Friends
tot performing marriage between members
of their own order, and the Qaakere them-
selves did not know how this proviso Dame
in. They have gone on stemming that
they bell thn authority the same as any
other Church. Its object is to legalize
marriage by Qaakere, though one of the
parties may not bb a Quaker. A very large
number of marriages have taken
place within the last twenty years about
whish there may be some gaeetion as to
their legality. The object is to remove
that restriction, and plane the society in
the same position regarding the perform-
anoe of marriages as other bodies. There
is a provision that those• marriages per.
formed before the passing of the Aot Ito-
cording to the rites of the Quakers aro de-
claredlawful where the parties have lived
as husband end wife, and where the
validity of the Aot has not been questioned
by any snit or action, or unless either of
the parties have einoe been 'married s000rd-
ing'so the law ; in such cage the windily, of
the Aot would be determined as if this Aot
had not been passed.
Mr. Mowat explained that the second
part of the bill affeoted the Salvation Army.
It was well known that this Army Rhee on
the same tooting now as any other relig-
ions body. Certain of their officers 000upied
a position oorreeponding to bishop] and
ministers in other bodies. They now ap-
plied to have the same authority to perform
marriage, which other ohnrobee' have had.

did not mimeo that anybody would
suggest that the Army did not .stand in
substantially the same position as any
other religions denomination. The .pill

A third prov
there:
Mr. Mowat, in introducing a bill to
remove pertain oases from County Courts
to the High Courts, explained, in answer
to a question by Mr. Meredith, that the
object of the bill wee to transfer to the
High Courts oases whish had been pro-
ceeded with in the County Courts by mis-
take. This power was to be dieoretionary
with the judge, litigants not having the
power to make °nob ohenge.
Mr. Magwood moved for a return show-
ing the date of the certificate of the judges
appointed to try the election petition in the
North Perth election case.
Mr. Mowat explained tbat generally the
polioy was that wherever several bye -
elections were to be held the same day was
fixed for all. North` Brnoe was one of the
few oases in which bye -election° were held
simultaneously.
Mr. Meredith Bald there was a principle
involved in this matter as to the relation
of -the Clerk of the House to the Govern-
ment whioh ehonld be properly understood.
In the Daae of North Perth the general
elootion was held under the old list. There
were new lists in preparation whish were
known to be mush more favorable to the
Conservatives. Thee° new lista were to be
filed on Deoember 15th. In order , to pro•
vent the bye•eleotione from being held
on that list the writ was leaned illegally
before the time allowed by the law. The
only object of the undue [Teed mnet have
been to disfranchise those elegtore of Strut.
ford whose names would appdar in the new
list for the first time. .In the cage of
Durham, alth ugh judgment was given on
Deoember 41hpthe writ did not liens till
December 201h. Fortunately the object in
view was not a000mpliehed in North Perth,
!or the Coneervetive member was elected.
As &#natter of.prinoiple, however, he sub -
misted that all oases should be treated
alike and, fairly.
Mr. Hardy mad: that .Nirw,,: ereditleteei
terpretation of the statute .was a very.inge-
nione perversion. He ninat have known
that in the cane of North Perth the seat
was vacated by mutual ooneent, and to talk
of appeal was utter absurdity. The law
was framed to allow en opportunity of
appeal, but in this case it was known there
gonld be no appeal. There could not bo en
e eel. The gentleman unseated was a
�,nd of the Government, and it was only
--_to-gnppoee that they knew that he did

Personal Journalism.
Winnipeg Free Press : As journaliem
goes these days there are many practices
that are reprehensible, but none'. lore so -
where it is presumed to be conducted 011 an
impersonal basie-than attache on sup-
posed writers. With the publication of
every well regulated newspaper there is
associated some person who as the
announced editor can properly be held per-
sonally responsible for its utterances.
Personal 'oritioiem should never -reach
beyond him, and, indeed, should . be spar-
ingly indulged in even in his Daae. Imper-
eonsl journalism is the ideal of English-
speaking people, whish involves considering
end denting with every utterance upon its
merits, without regard to the person who
may have penned it -the journal itself
being always given an individuality, but
as cistinot from the personality of its
writers' as from that of its typesetters or
preremen.
