Mr. Poster said he spokelest his ,silenee

that those who objected to Prohibition did
net Propose to do away with restrictions
'open the liquor traffic altogether. They
must look then to some form of license.

He would prefer to have the Scott Act

He referred to the argument frequently
advanceds-
that Prohibition was unsucces
,
ful in Maine and Linea% and cited toe
embodiment of the principle in the Ddsine
Constitution and the popularity of Prohi-
bition in Kansas to prove that the people
of those States, who. ought to know 'their
own business, believed it to be a SUOOOSS.
Mr. Waldie said that the Scott AO was
at first passed in his county (Halton) by a
narrow majority. In 1883 there was a pro-
Posal to repeal the Act. They heard then
all the arguments against the feasibility of
carrying out the law which they had heard
to -night, and the result of the discussion
WAS that the Act was confirmed by a
majority of 140, The Act was being better
enforced every year. •
Mr. Casey rose to speak amid cries of
"12 o'clock" (Thursday being the feast of
Corpus Christi).
Sir John Macdonald Baia it was quite.
that this important discussion could
not be finished this evening. He therefore
moved that the debate be adjourned and be
the first order of the day for Monday.—
Carried.
' Sir John Macdonald moved the Hong
into committee to considertheBill creating
the new Department of Trade and Com-
memo. He said the Cabinet had arrivedat
the conclusion that the rapidly' increasing
trade of the country demanded the creation
of a department specially charged with
matters relating to trade and commerce,
home and foreign. The Minister of Finance
had hitherto attended to these matters.
The work had become too burdensome for
the minister, whose special work is to keep
watch and ward over the receipts and dia.
burseittents of the Government, the debt
and the cash assets, etc. Tho new depart-
ment, he stated, coincided with the Eng-
lish Board of Trade. The new Minister
would have the duty of attending to the
execution of laws passed by Parliament and
of Order -in -Council relating to matters
connected with trade and commerce, and
he, with the Minister of Finance, would
practically form the Treasury Board.
In order to prevent an increase of the
Cabinet, the Minister of Trade and Com-
merce would be. the head of his own Especial
department, and would also be the head of
the Customs and Inland Revenue. He
would have a Deputy of Trade and Coins-
merce, and the two branches would be ad-
ministered by controllers Who, though re-
quired to be Members of Parliament, Would
not have seats in the Cabinet. Theywould
be members of the Government but not. of
the Cabinet, in this respect following,
the plan adopted. byEngland. The perma-
nent heads of the two brencoheis would be
first-class clerks, over whom the Deputy of
Trade and Commerce would have control,
and Would have a salary of $2,800. The
adjustment of tariff for the development of
trade would be the special duty of the new
Minister. The revenue side of the tariff
woelc1dontinue to be the special charge of
the Minister of Pinang. He•believed there
would be much greater efficieney and that
Without increasing the cost.
Sir Pilchard Cartwright said he thonght
the revenue collecting branchett should be
under the Minister of Finance. Ho be
lieved in the plan of political heads not in
the Cobinet, as it Would be a good approil-
ticeehip for the yOunget members of the
Commons before becoming Cabinet Min-
istera. He objected to the salaried of the
. .
controllers as too near those of Cabinet
Ministets.'

In the Plouse of Conamoes this evening,
Mr. Smith nurVed the resolution Previously
announced, requesting that, at 19 p.m, on
the 17th ing, the Chairman forthwith put
the question of any motion, amendment or
proposel touching the clause of the Crimes
Bill then under disoussion,then on the clause
itselfandfinallyoneaohremainingolause.He
said the step was forced upon the Govern-
ment by oontinuous obstruction. It was
absolutely necessary for the dignity and
efficiency of the House that the deliberate
attempts to‘preveiat the progress ef Inisi.
nese should be defeated. It " was now the
fourth menth of the session and practically
nothing had been done. The whole course
of legislation had. been stopped. The Gov-
ernmcnt desired that due consideration be
given to the rights of the minority and re.
speot shown for the traditions of liberty
and freedom•attaished to the institutions of
the country. (Derisive Parnellite laughter,)
But it was undoubtedly the duty of the
Government, under circumstances without
a parallel hi the history of a Parliareent,to
call upon the House to take measures to
prevent the minority from setting at defi-
trace the controlling power of the majority.
It was impossible for a Government repre.
senting a majority to yield to the
obstruction of the minority. The debates
over the Crimes Plillhadbeconie airavesty,
bringing ridicule,. disgrae.e. •ond contempt
upon Parliament. He appealed to the
House to support the Government in try-
ing to restore order in their proceedings.
(Cheers.).
Mr. Gladstone said that a longer notice
should have been given of this important
rootion. The present state of business and
the entire paralysis of Parliament had
caused intense dissatisfaction throughout
the country, but the position had been
brought about by the Government them.
seises, (Cries of "Mar, hear.") They
had been pursuing the false and evil policy
of Coercion without the justification that
had been pleaded on former oocasions.
They had disregarded all the usages and
traditions of Parliament in the conduct of
the measure which they had, under the
name of the Crimes Bill, introduced. The
measure was directed against combination
apart from crime. (Hear, hear.) Hewould
suggest to the Government that a, rational
mode to expedite the Bill would be to make
it temporary instead of permanent and to
strike out all the provisions touching corn-
bination apart from crime, assuring the
Irish tenants of the saine protection in
respect to their land strikes as is given
English artisans in their labor strikes.

now pursued,
Mr. Parnell said he could not understand
the fatuity of the Government on rushing
blindfolded along a road which they had
already seen would lead te the greatest dis-
order in Ireland. The Government
s eskers had harped on the theme of ob.
ginotion. As a -naatter of fact the Irish
members had not lifted a voice against any
measure except this Coercion Bill, which
they were bound to resist to the utmost,

crime was admittedly at a minimum. He
concluded by moving an amendment that
the House decline to sanetion a resolution
limiting the freedom of debate and assail-
rag the rights of minOritiea. (Cheers.)
Sir William Vernon Harcourt warned

stallion Cairnbrogie Keit, to Galbraith
Bros., of Janesville, Wis., the great horse
importers, and he will be shipped from the

was brought back to England, and was
bought as soon as landed by the Duke of
Portland for £1,400. He won the first
prize of the Royal Agricultnral Society at
Shrewsbury and other heifers, and was.
used with great success on His Grace's
estates in Ayrshire. Cairnbrogie Keir is a
