Mr. Whitney offered a brief criticism, and then the Opposition members, who did most of the talking,â€" plung:d into the discussion uutli on the lines of the previous day, without referring to _ the instructions to the commissioners.

I will lay the draft upon the table, and a copy of the draft will be given to my hon. friend the leader of the Opposition. There is a blank in the draft for the names of the commissioners. 1 may say to the House that Chancellor ‘Boyd of the Sug e Court and Chief Justice Falcon :me have assented to act in this matter, and will form the personâ€" nel of the commission. This draft indicates what power is proposed to be given to the commission. Perhaps the Clerk might read the commission." Mr. Whitneyâ€"I think it would be well. The Clerk of the House then read the instructions to the commission, as follows:â€" "In the matter of an inquiry,into certain charges made by Robert kos- well Gamey, a member of the Legisâ€" lative Assembly of the Province of Ontario, against James Robert Stratâ€" torf, a member of the Executive Counâ€" cil of Ontario, and _ also _ a member â€" of the said_ Legislative Assembly.
