as Messrs. Saxton, Lexow. Fish. Robinson
and Ainsworth had promised to support his
bill, he thought it had a good chance Of
passing.
Mr. Smiths bill contains three brief Sec
tons. One provides that at the next gen.
eral election voters shall have an oppor-
tunity to cast their ballots for or against
the sale of strong drink between the hours
of pm. and II pm. on Sunday. Another
says that IL the question is affirmed by a
majority of the voters the succeeding legis-
lature shall make laws to govern the new
condition of affairs. The third section says
that if the sale of liquor on Sunday, during
the hours named, is at the expense Of law,
order and public decency the next legisla-
ture shall take immediate steps looking to

No progress has been made in the
formation of a Whiteway ministry in
New Foundland. The party is divided in
to a series of factions, each of which is
fighting for the lions share of the spells.
Those men In Office who want other posi-
tons before resigning appear to be firm
in their determination to extort considera-
ton before vacating their seats. This con-
duct is condemned unqualifiedly by the op-
position newspapers because Of it's effect
abroad. 1t is reported that the Whitewly-
ties are ready to accept royal commission
as the only help that will extricate the
colony from its present financial difficult
ties.
