THE SYSTEM HAS A DEFENDER.
T H E best defence of the appointment
by the Dominion Government of Mr.
M Mesas, M. P., to the County Judge=
ship of Huron, is the following from
the Hon. Gv.o. W. Ross, Minister of
Education for Ontario .
Had it been shows, he observed, that the
independence of any members of the Hoose
h ad beeo overthrown, or that env offices
h ad been filled by isoompeteot persoos, a
ease might have been made out : but such
bed Dot been done. No one could mestion
as iwteses where any member had bees,
directly or indirectly, influenced to hie vote
by the prospect of Olio* stow Confedera-
tion. The breath of susptatou did not rest
on • single mai. They too. Britain as their
model, and how maov of the (.overeele-
(:,neral had been members of the British
House, All of the Lieutenant-1icvxsore of
Ontario have been members of the Domin-
ion House. The paving of the bill would
declare that the members of the Hou.e dis-
trusted themselves. Again, the b ll could
be easily evaded by the appointment of re-
lattise of the members, Lod, for that mat-
ter, • year would be • very short time fur a
member who wee really determined to
sell himself to wait for his reward.
t ontintung, Mr Ron declared with
yigor that the members are not purchasable;
the reputation that the committees of the
House, sock u the Private hills l'ommittes,
have achieved shows than sufficiently. The
peeing of such a bill might coeur result is

the members of the House, Mr. Rose de.

Of course, when lion. Mr. Ross
was dieing safely delivered of the above
piece of special pleading be did net
have the MAtsnr appointment in his
mind, but as it is just as true of Judge
M Arson's appointment and of all Dom-
inion appointments from the floor of
the House as it it of those from the
floor of the Legislsture, we could not
resist the temptation to quote it in
favor of Judge Maxima. Was the
