Mr. Snyder plead ed that th<^ court should hear the argument of Mr. Magone. Willing to concede in a measure, the court then inquired as to the counsel for the defence, It developed that he was absent. Further inquiry elicited the fact that he had been notified of the hearing —- which was on Monday — .only on the previous Friday and had replied by wire on Saturday that he was engaged in the local Assize j Court and could not attend. The court then demanded to know why, since the date for the hearing was settled by consultation between the court and the Attorney-General’s de partment some ten days or more pre viously, and since it was the duty of the Attorney-General’s Department to notify the defence counsel accord ingly, why he had been given only two days notice. Nd satisfactory an swer seemed to be forthcoming and the court • obviously disapproved of what had happened. During the interchange it was sug gested by Mr. Magone that the court might follow the decision of the Su- preme ' Court of New Brunswick. This court had held in 1935 that the Canada Temperance Act is ultra vires of the Dominion Parliament. This judgment was prepared and delivered by the Hon, Mr. Justice Baxter. It will be recalled that Mr. Baxter was the Premier of New Brunswick when government control was proposed and inaugurated in that province. In reply to Mr, Magone’s sugges tion the court with . a smile replied that it preferred to follow the de cisions of the Privy Council. The •plea that the court hear the argument being still pressed, the case was de ferred until the September sitting on the ground that the defence counsel had not been properly notified. Whether the government will pro ceed with the appeal arising out the Manitoulin case, remains to seen. An adverse decision would course rob Judge Grout’s finding any legal standing and would also counter th e judgment of the Supreme Court of New Brunswick. - The chan ces are therefore rather serious Mr. Hepburn’s position.—Advt. of be of of BELMORE for w, T.
