EDITORIAL NOTES

Sir Charles Fitzpatrick, Canada : Chief-Justice and Deputy Governor General, was born Tn Quebec three score years ago today. During the ab- sence of the Duke of Connaught the distinguished jurist acted as Cover nor-General of the Dominion, with the same powers and honors as. possessed by the Duke. Sir Charles, who was knighted in 1907. was admitted to the bar in 1876. after graduating from Laval University. His first appear ance in the ihternationaT 1i1nelight was as chief counsel for Riel, the Mani toba half-breed, who led the insurrec- ton of: 1885. TheS young barrister made a determined and brilliant legal fight for his client. but Riel was con victed and. executed. He was still in his thirties when he refused the port folio of Attorney-Genera1,i but in 1901 he became Minister of Justice, and in 1908 he was elevated. to the important post of Chief-Jdstiee.

 The first Legislative body Of modern times to claim the rights of free speech and free discussion was the English House of Commons. which de- elared in favor of such a right on this date, December 18th, in the year 1921. This brave declaration. marked a most important step towards the liberties of England and of all the world. Prior to that time the members of the Com mons did not dare to criticise the rul- ing powers. It was this Parliament which first formed the Court and Country parties, and which had en- gagged in disputes with James I. Eight years after the declaration Of free speech Charles I. dissolved Parlia- nent, and it did not meet again for eleven years. Tn 1640. however, what was called the Long Parliament" was convened. It was this House of Com mons that first attacked the House of Lords. and voted that the upper chamber was useless and dangerous to the liberties of the country. The bishops were also excluded from vot- ing on temporal matters. The House of Peers was abolished in 1e49. but four years later Cromwell dissolved the Long Parliament.

carried death and destruction in its
wake The immensely of the disaster
is beyond description. Fire broke out
in the business section of the city to-
night n a drenching rain added to
the discomfort. The dead are being
removed from the streets in North
Dayton and it is apparent that the
death list will run into hundreds and
perhaps thousands, before the extent
of the catastrophe is known.
Refugees are being cared for in the
public schools and churches. Fire all
ready has destroyed many of the
larger buildings and hotels and the
city hall and police headquarters have
been abandoned. The river has fallen
six feet in the last "a hours.
