FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 15,'1901.
Par1iamentaryCorrespond-
ence.
That the Conservatives in the House
realize the present hopelessness of their
position is manifest in yarious ways,
and some of them, in private conver-
sation, are candid enough to admit it.
The•selection of Mr Borden as leader
in the House was only accomplished
after. two nights of red-hot caucusing.
'He is not leader of, the Conservative
partyin the sense that Sir Wilfrid
Laurier is leader of the Liberal party.
He will simply act on behalf of the Op-
position in. the House. He will have
no more right to originate party policy
than any other member of the Oppo-
sition. •. A prominent Conservative
described the position thus: -"R. L.
Borden is our leader in the House. If
he lost hie, seat the party would not be
under' the slightest obligation to find:
him another seat. We would choose
another House leader from our. ranks."
It may be difficult to keep a line of de-
marcation • between a "House" leader
and a leader of the "party," but there
is an element in the ranks of the Con-
servatives here that will try pretty
hard to do it.
Mr Monk, who represents Jacques
Cartier, has been chosen as leader of
the French-Oanadian Conservative ele-
ment, which numbers seven only, and
it is currently reported.'that one of
these has already gone over to the
Government side of the House.
This much,at any rate, must be said
in favor of the two . pereons named;
they are both gentlemanly in manner,
with a clean political past, but the for-
mer isa much more pleasing speaker
than the latter. -
It seems to be scarcely likely that
Hon. Mr Foster will find a seat in the
House during the present Parliament.
A prominent Nova Scotian said he did
not believe Mr Foster could be elected
in any of the lower provinces, and it is
well known that the old-time Conser-
vatives in Ontario are bitterly opposed
to him because of his action in connect-
ion with "the nest of "traitors." . E.
King Dodds, of Toronto, a Conserva-
tive campaigner of note. openly states'
that he will oppose Foster in any On-
• tario constituency. Who will become
financial ci itic during Mr, Foster's eh.
• Bence is a matter of conjecture, but it
• will probably be E. F. Clarke or Vol.
• rirdaie.
Since Confederation' no government
ever met the House with so large a
majority as does Sir Wilfrid. It is not.
likely that the Opposition will press
any question to a vote for some time,
as it will place them in a bad light, but
the government. claims, by its classifi-
cation, a clear majority of 50, assuming
all the members to be .present or pro-.
, perly paired.
A marked illustration of the hostility
existing between . Mackenzie Bowell
and John Haggett, occurred in my
presence the other day. Mr. Bowell
stood a few feet from my desk, talking
to a mem bee, when Mr Haggartentered
the chamber from the opposite side,
and was crossing the floor; when he
observed Mr Bowell, having almost
walked into him; with a motion that
was suggestive of contempt, the ex -
Minister of Railways wheeled around
and walked out of the chamber again.
Thespeech of Sir Wilfrid Laurier,
-
on Friday, relating to the late Queen,
is regarded as one of the finest orator -

WOMEN'S INSTITUTE. - The West
Huron Women's Institute held Its first
▪ meeting in Goderich on February 6th.
The officers elected were Paps., Mre H.
Mord, Holmesville; vice, Mise Mac-
-obeli, Porter's Hill; Secretary, Mrs C.
Campbell, Godes icb; Treasurer, Mrs J.
Salkeld, Goderich. These officers are
'forthis riding in and stand until the an-
nual
g
nual meeting in June. A local brand;,
was organized in Goderich and as soon
as possible similar branches will be lo-
cated in different parts of the riding.
Is was particularly noticeable that
there was a gocd representation of
ladies of the county present,while only
two of those from the town were in
attendance We may here note °that
these institutes are not for the women
of the farming community.alone,but as
much for the town as well. Farmers'
Institutes, as known by that name,
first came into Canada into Canada in
1886, but similar work on a smaller
scale had been attempted as far back as
n Tipper
excellent work i it
1792, doing c
Canada. Of late years a revival has
started and now institutes have flour-
ished and grown, the reason being of
•the great amount of benefit derived at
the meetings held throughout each
Ipg, Discussions are held and pa -
+a read,which furnish enlightenment
npen'the various subjects. By reason
6f this women's Institutes have been
established, and we are of the opinion
that is commendable. Every woman,
whether living in the towbehip or in
the town, should be a member of the
women's institutes, and not only sucb
but be prepared to take a part in the
proceedings and make the meetings
lively and of interest.
