SALA RiES TO R UL ERS.
Perhaps there is no eubject upon
Whieb the average Briton is more ig-
norant than that of the ITIC01,11e Of the
King 91 Queen of the great Empire
over which floats the Union Jack. The
salary of the President of the United
States is $50,000 a year, paia divectly
by the people ont oT the taxee. The
siun is olio for his purely persmial
wants, the expenses of the White
}louse being 'mk1 also by the people
from year to year, as well iTs that of
all state GOVern01,9, and Lieutenant
Governors. When these are taken in-
to consideration the great expense of
the rulers in the republic; to the south
of ns will at once become apparent.
And also the fact that it comes yearly
out of the pockets of the people. It is
not generally known that the King of
England does not cost the people any-
thing, but that his estate, known as
the Crown property, is a large source
of income to the nation. Yet such is
the fact. Regent street, London, be-
longs to the Cro'vn and when the pre-
sent ground leases fall in it will be a
great increase in the revenue of the
Kingdom and make glad the heart of
some future chencellor of the Exche-
quor, which office corresponds to our
Minister of Finance. The Prince of
Wales is voted a certain sum by Par-
liament, but he is voted it out of whit
is properly his 0 WIl money as Dukesof
Cronwall and Lancaster. The first
named title with its estates have be-
longed to tbe oldest son of the King
since 1837, being granted. by Edward
111. A century and a half before the
discovery of America. The estates of
the duchy of Lancaster carne to the
Crown from Henry Bolingbroke; son
of John of Gaunt, founder of the royal
line of Kings, known as the Lancas-
trians, whose red emblem was one
badge in the wars of the Roses. To
say that we have the cheapest mon-
archy in the world is a poor way to
put the statement. We have a mon-
archy that not only costs nothing, but
brings to the country a large revenue
besides. One other feature also is the
most staikieg and that is the personal
economy of the royal family. While
public incomes are being increased all
the world over on account of the in-
creased cost of living and Cabinet
Ministers, Judges and Legislators are
clamoring for more pay the royal fam-
ily of Britain has decreased its person-
-al expenses more than one half. To
live'a king or prince should now read
to live like a bank president, or rail-
way magnate. George III. (not an ex-

',three or four subjeets which engag-
ed the tittention of the members Of the
Ontario LegisleLuve during the present
week are ot unusual importance and
sheald have -more than a passing' no-
tice. These are the remarkable ad-
dresses by Mr. Whitney, the efforts of
some of the private members of the
Opposition, the declarations made by
the Government that no action was to
be taken t9 punish the criminals who
operated in the West Elgin and North
1\raterloo elections and the temerity
of the GoVernment in connection with
the University question.
But even an exteeded acemaiiii of
thesesubjects gives but the shadow of
things as they are here in Toronto.
The substauce is a Government which
is inoperative, discredited and tremb-
ling. One could with difficulty believe
that such a difference could exist be-
tween members of two parties. The
Liberal membersanake no secret of the
fact that they are sitting for the last
time on the Government side of the
House and many of them have read
the writing on the wall and know that
they will never sit in the. upholstered
chair, aud write the triple letters after
their names again. This condition of
affairs has resulted in a different atti-
tude among the members of the two
parties and on the other side there is
fear and trembling, want of confidence
in every act and dread in every bill.
On the other hand there is a remark-
able buoyancy in the opposition,an
admirable enthusiasm which makes it
at once interesting and very strong.
So whenever one reads the description
of the proceedings at Legislature let
him keep in his mind this picture. - A
Government with members shrinking,
and much afraid, and an opposition
'aggressive and very confident
Ib is difficult to give in a few para-
graphs a summary of the address which
Mr. Whitney- delivered in the. House.
It was one of the brightest speeches
that has been delivered in Legislative
Halls and taken with Col. Matheson's
the two form a front which cannot he
broken. No member has attempted to
answer the financial exposition made
byr Col. Matheson, so Mr. Whitney de-
voted much of his time to a discussion
of the questions before the public. His
speech was a comhinaton, a lash it
proved to bc,which made the members
of the Government shrink and wince,
and at the same time there was a
glimpse of the bright days to come,
when dishonesty and incapacity would
be reproved and the party of right pre-
vailed.
A few gems in that speech may be
taken from their beautiful setting and
placed here in their unconnected form.
Fle pointed out that the Premier in his
speech had admitted that the. Goveen-
ment had secured its railway policy
from the opposition and though. the
Premier hesitated and interrupted he
was forced to admit the statement.
The Government pays $775,000 for ed-
ucation and boasts of it, but the State
of New York .with little more than
double the population spends $47,000,-
000 annually.
"The Premier has said that it has to
spend money to keep the people of On-
tario straight." Said Mr. Whitney,
"It Would be better if they spent a
little more in sending to jail some of
the men by whose acts members of the
Goyeenment now sit in the Treasury
benches."
Mr. Whitney pointed out how time
after time the Government had stolen
the policy of the opposition. The Gov-
ernment had stolen the saw log policy,
the policy of a travelling dairy, the
policy of Farmers' Institute meetings
and the present election act. He point-
ed out the unsatisfactory condition of
the University and of the Educational
Policy. Upon this question of educa-
tion the opposition speak with no un-
certain sound and of their policy on
this question is statesmanlike. Let
the province of Ontario first take
thought of the public school and the
pupils at the public school and when
satisfactory reforms are made then
turn to the University. Had the Con-
servatives been in power during the
last six years there w9u1d have been
no university question now, and the
public school would have been improv-
ed and made efficient.
The sameline of statesmanship runs
through the entire policy of the Oppo-
sition. The members are close to the
people who send them to Parliament
and the leaders of it have the ear of
the farmer and the manufactureen-
In law reform Mr. Whitney says
lessen the expense and do away with
allathe machinery whnila costs money
and stands in the way of the poor man
obtaining even handed justice. So too
with agriculture. Let there be not one
agricultural college in one corner of elle
province,but many agricultural schools
in different parts of the province and
a second agricultural college where
the finances permitted. The money
which the Ontario Government spent
in securing a commission to whitewash
the criminals in ,West Elgin would
have gone a long way to establishing a
second college of Agriculture.
Many more things did Mr. Whitney
indicate in his admirable address but
the same strong cord goes through it
all. , The policy' of Opposition is one
which would give new life to the PrO-
vince of Ontario because it aims at new
and efficient and honest methods and
every move would be just what the
people needed.
This is not a question of politics or
rather not a question of political par-
ties but it is one of right and wrong.
The Ontario Government d6es not
have the' confideece of the people who
supported it. The people of Ontario
shrink in shame ftom the answer which
the Attoreey-General gave to Mr.
Whitney, early laat week.
The Attorney -General said that the
Government would not investigate
ballot -switching .and dishonest work
done in the North Wentworth elec-
tion. ' That was the contest which was
pereonally directed by Hon. Mr.Davis,
Minister of Crown Lands. The out-
rages there were even more repulsive
than in West Elgin bat not all the
guilty one were to go free. Nor Nveic

that in membees they are about a

Spring Assize Court.
(From the Godericli Star.)
The spriug sittings of the kligh Coml.
of Justice for the County of Enron
opened on Tuesday afternoon before
His Lordship Mr. Justice Lount. The
petty jury roll having been called, the
following grand jury men answered to
their namesa-Henry Chaff, Ashfield;
D. A. Forrester, Goderich tp.; 13. B.

berry; Geo. Murdie, McKillop; Jas. A,
McIntosh, Goderieh; R. Robertson,(Us-
borne; Chas. Stewart, Ashfield;
Varcoe, Colborne; and Jno.Weismiller,
Hensall. His Lordship having received
the customaiy pair of gloves to show
that there were no criminal offences
before the court, addressed the Grand
Jury panel on their standing duties,
paid a glowing tribute to the life of
"The Good Queen," and a loyal testi-
mony to Edward the VIL, whom His
Lordship said had the sixty years of his
good mother's reign to guide him. As
Mr. Justice Lount was about to call
the first case on the docket, Mr. Gar -
row rose and said he was deputed to
present an address to His Lordship.
Whereon the court and the nineteen
barristers presentrose; and the K.C.
read the following:
The members of the Bar of the Coun-
ty of Huron desire to avail themselves
of your Lordship's first official visit to
the County Town to offer their cordial
and sincere congratulations upon your
Lordship's recent appoinment to the
Bench.
Yon are no stranger to us. We have
long known you as an industrious,
painstaking and eminently fair Crown
Counsel at many assizes in Goderich.
Your eminence at the Bar, as for
many years one of its leaders,and your
long and varied experience as Solicitor,
Counsel and Legislator, made your ele-
vation a most fitting one, upon which
you not alone, but the Province is to
be congratulated.
The Province,fortunately,has always
in the past gloried with good reason in
the high character and attainments of
its judges. We feel that it is not being,
unduly fulsome, but merely expressing
an hceest conviction, based upon long
and 'somewhat intimate association
with you, when we say we recoguize
in you a fit and worthy successor tro
the able and distinguished judges who
have preceded you in the High Court
Bench of this Province.
That you may be premitted by Pro-
vidence to spend many useful years in
your new career with mutual advant-
age to yourself and the Province, is
our fervent hope.
judge Lount made a brief, though
feeling reply, mentioning his many
visits to the county, the ability of the
Huron bar, and the great attainments
of the Judge whom he had been ap-
pointed to succeed -the late Judge
Rose. He conoluded by thanking the
Bar of Ruron for the kindly address
presented him. His Lordship then
took the docket, but as there were no
cases ready for trial, -he adjourned
the court to 9.30 a.m. Wednesday.
