A DELEGATION of temperance workers
will wait on the Dominion Government
at Ottawa this week to make enquiries

The question of crown lands timber, he
declares, is a provincial affair. He sums
up thus :-"The disallowance of such an
act as the one now in question would be
contrary to precedent; would be an
unconstitutional exercise of the power of
the Governor-General in Council and
would be an unwarrantable interference
with a matter of purely provincial con.
