Bo Is these appoint- aents were wade by the late Government, nd have been approved by the Laurier Ad- ainietration. The Govoxnraent are making extensive ireparstions for the reception of Li Hung Ihang to the capitid. Sir Henri Joly de Atbiniere has been selected as the repre entative of the Canadian Cabinet to so- iQrt the great Chinaman across the conti- tent. Dr Landerkin gives notice of a question iesigned to bring out the facts in relation io the return of Major McGillivray as mem- )er for North Ontario, and will ask it it is the intention of the government to take steps to punish the parties who tampered Aith the ballots. In reply to an inquiry as to. -what the ;overnment intended doing towards a ple- bisoite on the tei4i5kiaoe question, Mr Laurier said that the taking of a vote of the people was a part of the Liberal platform, and still remained so, but the date for the laking of the veto cannot be fixed at Wit moment. It is hinted that the Aberdeen -Tupper correspondence will not be permitted to form the subject of a debate in the Com- mons, should the motion bringing it before the House contain anything approaching to criticism of the Governor-GemAral's actions. It is bold that the Hoagie oonld not discuss His Excellency's action, and there are rum- ors that the attempt to discuss this corres- pondence will probably be ruled out of order. Here was a carious question for the ears of the English Chief Justice: Mr McInnes asked "whether the Government are aware thit the Hon. Theodore Davie, chief justice of British Colombia, was engaged in can- vassiug during the late election? If so, is it the intention of the Government to inquire into the matter?" Mr Laurier replied that the Government is not aware. The facts had not been brought to the attention, of the Government yet. There was a Government canals on Tuea- day. It was the first one of the present session. There was a full attendance of members of Parliament and Senators, and the meeting was a most enthusiastic one. Mr Laurier got a great ovation on rising to address his colleagues and follow - era. All the Ministers made speeches, and There as no a Lent reception. h w got ane cel p particular business before the oaaons. It was incidentally remarked by some of those who spoke that all officials who had noted as offensive partisans during the late oam- wou!d have to answer for the same with their official heads. The whips selected are as follows: Ontario -James Sutherland and Wm, Gibson. Quebec -Dr. Guay and Mr Bourassa, Maritime Provinoco-Mr Flint. Manitoba and the Territoriea-R. L. Rich- ardson. British Columbia -Mr Bostock. The Free Press has the following para- graph: In connection with His Excellency's refusal to sign certain orders in council, submitted to him by the late Ministry be- fore their resignation and the rumpus is now being kicked up by the Tories in the same connection, as alleged onconatitution- M grounds, it will be interesting for the public to be informed ofthefactthat itisnot a new thing in the history of the the Cana dian Government for a Governor-General to withhold his assent from documents sent to him by his advisors and send back the same undersigned. It was this action on Lord Aberdeen's part that Sir Charles Tupper based his resignation on, but almost every Governor-General einoe oonfeders- tie i has refused his signature to orders pre- pared for him by his Ministry. Never be. fore has his right to do so been called into question. There have been in all about 25 of these refusals, on the part of Her Majes- ty's representatives to sanction the Cabi- net's action. and what is more, they can be cited by reference to records at any time.,, Hon Mt Davis has been selected as ��, , �� ,successor to the late Mr Balfour, in the ,.r office of Provincial Secretary. While „` we would have been very glad indeed ,' to have seen the selection for this office fall on Mr Garrow, we are not surpria- ed that Mr Davis hoe been chosen. As a Minister without portfolio when Mr Balfour died, it wa. only natural that ;' ':= �1e should be offered the position. The • .?vY ?.• teport got abroad that he would not �v ,wi•;`''• accept,owing to his business interests, And we are afire that, notwithstanding 7{,: , Mr Garrow's claims, there is no warm- er suppporter of Mr Davis than the h' member for West Huron, The new " ex- xr„a .

The Liberals laid ' down the principle that every em- plcyee of the government had the lrlght to vote as they tbougbt best, and Mould not be interfered with for go do- ililg, but the official who busied himself elactioneering when he should be at- iendinif to his duties would be dis- chargge Mr Lister, in the course of h L addregs, instanced by name several government officials who, he claimed, were nothing more than tloiftical aq- 1eixta, and he very truly gelid that i these men were not dismissed, th w%iber,al party would not be doing it duty. „ Anterlea+ri Apple Chop l "Che fohoi►frttr report 6f the American opal prep; idf rtia e e iron N� ... �op0111. an4 't , ie iii ed thA the • Hato, betwbvli. tali Wnd teh Bili` y . e triillibui boxY3tl app's treee,;irt 2eorkStatR Iibttrrben t"40 and fiftAon,millioti 'b"tilk Atipsld tr eel .in ,M1b11f96n b6t*oeb llblrbit to .nine'mii�ibtibbatlijit svoleirebs, Thine ;ttdso Arb,11' 46d*dithoav'3t:wfthu�C%Wt1*a1l:ofiltlf it 'I 'I an '�`'ba o ° ua wl 'M 4; ohttal+M w ,x r..a x«.uer+w nil wnl vkr atAr Political Pointers Hon.
