HU JUDGE MABEE'S DEATH. The startling news of the serious Mess of Judge Mabee, chairman of the Dominion Board of Railway Com- missioners, was followed quickly by the news of his deatb, which occurred on Monday afternoon at St. Michael's hospital. Toronto. Judge Mabee bad undergone an operatilo for appendi- citis, and death resulted from an attack of begirt failure following upon the operation. James P. Mabee was horn itt Port Bowan, Ont, in 1859. He studied law and eventually became well known as a prominent hamster of Stratford. whore he practised for aint.teen years. Re was a candidate once for parlia- mentary honor., and it is s matter for reflection that the man who after- wards won a great name as the head of one of the moot important institu- tions of the country failed of election at the bands of the voters of North Perth. Fate, however, had something perhaps better in store for him. He was appointed to the International Waterways Commission and later to Um beech as a High Court judge ; but his greatest work was done during the last four years of bis lite as chairman of the Dominion Railway Commission. In this position he became famed all over the country as a fearless di.- penser of justice in tbe numerous and important cases that canis before him, and the people had a fine feeling Um' with Judge Mabee in charge puhlic rights in respect to railway prihlems were absolutely safe. Often an argument as to what concessions a municipality might safely melee to a railway corporation was ended with the remark, "The Railway Commission will protect us " And this feel'ng of confidence was in great measure due to the knowledge that Judge Mabee would stand no nonsense from the railway corporations. Judge Mahe.e died "in harness." '1 He presided. ta meeting of theCommiseioo in Toronto on Monday of last week, and the sante evening was taken ill and removed to the hospital. The universal sentituent id that Canada has tort a great man whose place in the public affairs of this c uu,try it will be oily difficult to fill. EDITORIAL NOTES. This is the glowing time.

It is said the British public is taking very little interest in the home rule debates in the House of Commons. Ie this because the people of Britain have become accustomed to "revolutions" within the last few years? They were told that the adoption of the "revolu- tionary' Lloyd George budget would ruin the nation. The budget was adopted and the nation thrives vastly upon it- Later they were warned of the terrible results that would follow the winging of the House of Lord.— but nothing terrible has happened so far.
