_Dual Representation.
The bill abolishing Dual Repre-
sentation came up in the House On
Tueeday last for the third reading.
• As our readers Ism° already aware
, this bill provides that no person,
• after sitting and voting in the Do-
minion Parliament, shall be eligible
to sit in the Local Legislature. It.
wills be seen that the bill does not -
virtually come into force until the
first session of the pew Dominion
Parliament The President of the
Ccuneil and the Treasurer of On-
tario, therefore; will have an oppar-
tunity,of being elected for the Come
monseand still retain their positions
in the Ontario Government and
their: seats in the Ontario Legisla-
• ture until after. the next session.
The Opposition were not slow in
seeing this point, and made eundry
amendmente, so that the law might
• come in force at once or au least ina-
naediately after the ',Dominion elec-
tions Their efforts, however, were
in +mires The bill was carried over
each amendment by large majorities;
and is now the law of the land.
The Blake -Wood Slander. Case.
This now rather notorious case,
over which a deal- of the valualtle
time ef our legislators has been Wast-
ed during the preeent session was,
on Monday night last, final) dis-
posed of. . Although the orig a of
the case and its succeeding hi tory
may he already familiar to our ead-
erg, it. will not be out of place to
again briefly revert to it in the vari-
ous stages through whi'ph it hits pass-
ed. After the retit4nent of
late Government, t Was pub
stated by memoers and friend
the late Governmeht, that corrupt
means had been used by Mr. B11- ke,
f
the President of -the present ov-
, erement, to imloce Mr. Wood, the
:late Treasurer, to resign. hi a ,otlice
an -d thereby materially cletractf -ore'
=the strength of the Government t a -
'most' critical mon:teat. These charg-
es were based upon ),,riiniors that
several written compeunrcations hed,
passed between those two gentlemen
onithe floor of the house prior to the
resignation of the _latter of his office.
Upon the assenabling of the House
aftertthe 'Clariettuas :holidays, on.
M. C. Cameron moved the follow 'rig
resolution : . . . 1
" That a aelect committee to ?enciuire
whether any, and if any *kat, corrupt
indu.cernent or offer was madef to the

t is not on political grounds alone
that we denounce this division for
it will be seen by the above return?,
that the Reform Party would be al-
most ce.rtain of two represeutatfres
in each House, and that is all we
could possibly expect by a fair divi-
sion. Our grounds of ?:opposition
are based upon the fact that such a
ditision would be unnatural and
.
sponsibility of carrying outthe
scheme. It would, perhaps, have
been better had the London Pirec-
tors acknowledged their we knees
1
sooner, and made formal appli ation
to the Great Western for aid. But
itisnot yet too late, and we tee*
they evill speedily. put 'forth aril hon-
est and vigorous effort to secure the
.aseistance which they so much re-
quire, and Which is so absolutely
necessary ere the 'success of their en-
terprise can be assured.
The Government Railveecy
. Policy.
During the latter part of last
week a Bill was introduced int d the
Legislature by • the Goverment,
setting fin th the mancer in which
they proposed to deal with the rail-
way subsidy question, The present
Government after taking office and
making enquiey into the RailWay
Aid question ascertained that ss
had been . directly and indireetly
promised by the late Goeernmenk, to
the various schemes projected 4ncl
in course of construction throtielteit
the Province, which would come up
to a inueh larger. annount than that
granted lay the Legislature a year
ago for that purposee In order
therefore not to break faith with any
of these railway companies which
had secured encouragement fit!am
their Predecessors, the Government
found it, necessary to ask in their
Bill for an increase of the fund.
The Bill'proposes to add a sum of
$400,0,00, to the railway fund set
apart by the at of last session, and
to be applied in accordance' with the
provisions of that statute. In furth-
er aid of rail wave a sum of one
hundred thousand dollars yearly tor
twenty years, is to he set apart Mit

so as to form a fund to be known as
the Railway Subsidy Fund -2 It is

The Manitoba Legislature, -
The Manitoba Legislature was
prorogued on Friday lase Tee
events immediately preceding te-
event proved that it clid. not come
about one day too soon to saVe the
Goverument from being Unseated,
The Government brought down en
amendment to the Supreme Qourt
bill, to which Mr. Donald A„
submitted a further amendmett,and
upon whieh a debate ensued, which
was carried on in the media by thef
latter -named gentleman and the M.
torney-General, runeing over with
vituperation. The Attorney Oe..
eral accused Mr. Smith of political
treachery, and made any number of
other accusations of a like character
aPits.tSbrnimitie in his replies, proved
fully equal to :the occas- ion. ITe
demonstrated the Attorney-Generat
a disgrace to the Assembly. Re
said thesconduct of the Premier dur-
ing the entire session bad been
characterized by the sgrossest bee-
ience and attempted tyranny.
On the question being called, the
Government suffered its second mor-
al defeat of the session, the original
motion being lost by a majority of
four. About h q.if-an -hour before
the time for prorogation, one of the
Attorney -General's thick -and -thin
supporters introduced a motion ten-
dering that gentleman the special
thanks of the House for his conduct ,
during the session. This was but
the signal for a renewal of the hos-
tilities of the former part of the
day. that Mr. Smith had pre-
viously said be repeated, and the
Attorney -General also reiterated his
statemente. Before the motion could
be submitted, the House was sum-
moned by the Lieutenant-Gevernor
to attend in the _Throne Room for
prorogation.
The ceremonies attending the pro-
rogation were similar to those at t4
opening, with this difference, that
the Lieutenent-Governor was greet-
ed with a' heavy volley of groans
from thet crowd on the street on lebt
