It would be subversive of the entire scheme and policy of the to assume any Point of internal self government was withheld from Canada. Numerous Points have Arisen and May tar arise upon those provisions of the which draw a dividing line bit tween what belongs to the Dominion or to the province general terms an exhaustive enumeration j being general terms Are necessarily used describing what either is to have and with the use of Gen eral terms comes the risk of some confusion whenever a Case arises in which it can be said that the Power claimed Falls within the description of what the Dominion is to have and also within the description of what the province is to have. Such apparent overlapping is unavoidable. In Bhe present Case however quite a Dif Ferent Contention is advanced on be half of the provinces., it is i argued indeed that the Dominion authorizing questions to be asked of the supreme court is an invasion of provincial but not because the Power asking such questions be Longs exclusively to the provinces. Feature of present Appeal. The real ground is far wider., it is no less than that no legislature in Canada has to pass for order of Avis Lynnell of Hyannis expired tonight when governor Foss announced that he would not refer Eichison s petition for commutation of sentence to Bhe executive Council. The statement from the governor followed closely the filing of the re of the special insanity which declared the condemned Man sane although subject to its of hysterical insanity. The commission found that Doh Esopi was sane at tie time of the murder and he is sane at the preset time. In the death chamber at Charleis. Town the prisoner has borne himself calmly since he was transferred Frojm the Charles Street jail. On tuesday. It was apparent that he still had Hopes that clemency would be extended to him and it was believed Tomt this alone was keeping up his spirits. The statement issued governor Foss shows that the alienist found that Richeson s family was afflicted very generally with insanity. The evidence however while Clear y revealing these attacks indicates Ottawa May result the provincial elections in. Quebec yester Day when sir Lormor go urn Premier of the province was returned to Power by an increased majority has Given Rise to much varied comment in the capital to Day and Many inferences being drawn from the Liberal Vic Literals Are inclined to look won the.

Therefore while there is some divergence of on among the alienist As to whether hese attacks indicate actual Insa a to there is sufficient ground for the conclusion that he is accountable for his crime and that the exercise of executive clemency in this instance Ould be contrary to the Public Good. The affidavits and medical Evi Dence As to Richeson a unfavourable heredity his lapses of consciousness and his attacks of delirium Are too voluminous to include in this Staie ment and Are not suited to Publica the alienist referred to Are 3pr and or Isi Lior asking such questions at All.
