In reply to the delegation of Vic- toria merchants. which called on him a few days ago to ask for an early election, the: lieutenant-gov- ernor simply reiterated what he said in his prorogation. speech, that " a session of the legislature would be held before the close’ of the fiscal, > year. not propose that the election‘shall be held till after the’ revision “of the voters’ lists in May, closing on May, 7. It is estimated that six--weeks will be required to print’ the lists and two weeks must be allowed for them to reach the -most remote’ dis-, tricts after being printed. That carries it into July and another month will be consumed in receiving | returns and summoning’ the legisla- ture. ‘That carries it-into August and it may be September before Martin canbe ‘disposed’ of and a new ministry formed. -That is the way*Hon. D. W. ° Higgins and the Colonist calculate, and they are not far off. *This means’ that for six ‘months “sthe people of British Coluwbia must endure the personal rule of Thomas R. McInnes and his favorite; -Joseph Martin, on whom by his kingly will he has conferred the title, office and emoluments of premier. ‘‘Upon what meat doth this our Caesar - feed thathe is grown so great?” Two centuries-.and a half ago Charles I, the descendant of a long line of kings, ruled for'r1 years by right divine and when parliament got a chance at him, it drove him from his throne and chopped off his head. Then is*it tobe tolerated that in this closing year of the nineteenth century this © deputy: of the queen’s deputy shall rule ‘abso- lutely for six months? . Is there-no way for the province to rid itself of this incubus other’ than sending: humble petitions to the deputy whose deputy is this self-constituted autocrat? -Are there no legal as- pects to his actions of which the courts can take cognizance? If there be any possible way of promptly getting rid of McInnes and Martin, the people “should be up and about it. If they must wait, there will, be astern accounting when the new legislature meets. No money has been lawfully pro- vided for the government of the Premier Martin says he does_| - the ‘Conservatives to two candidates for. Vancouver, mends ‘this course’‘on the -high grounds of patriotism and public in- terest, but ‘it‘shows ‘its’: inability: to recognize the true functions of party | »: by. this single sentence: ““There are occasions when the interests of.the State should be pre- “1 ferred to those of a'party, ‘even by the staunchest adherents to the lat- -.[ter.” + ‘There are not only “occasions when the- interests “of: the’ State should be’preferred to those of 2 party,” but public interests should at all times’ be preferred to party in- terests.' A party is'simply a means to an end, and that end is‘ the inter- ests of the State: The only excuse for the existence of parties is a dif- ference of opinion on matters of principle as to how the public- good can best be promoted. The party which acts upon the assumption that only occasionally must the.pub- lic good be: considered above its own has the seeds of corruption in its heart and will end in defeat and public obloquy. It is this talse theory of party rule which makes Mr. Cotton an -unsafe counselor and explains the failure of the government.of which he was a member. opportunists, who loved party, ‘place and power more than than country, and they. brdéught on the present crisis by their misdeeds.
