The commission was\nat Nanaimo yesterday, and early in\nthe week some very interesting proposals were brought to its notice ln\nVictoria.\nOne pi these; was the view put far-\nward by Mr. James McEwen, ou behalf of the voters league in Victoria\nthat there shculd be only one elected\nbody in the municipality, which bcdy\nshould control the schools, the pollce\nand the liquor licenses, as well a3\nother civic matters.\nConsidering the amount cf work\nwhich is now undertaken by the coun\ncils and school boards of the rapidly\ndeveloping centres cf population upon the coast, we do not see how this\nproject, admirable t'.cugh it be from\ncertain aspects, could be put into\ncommission forthwith. But, in so far\nas th.e police ar.d license commission\ners are affected, these bodies arc at\npresent partially confined to meniber-\nof the civic or municipal councils. !i\nthe case of the police commissioners\nthe mayor of this city is hy virtue of\nhis office chairman of the body, whll\nthe other two places are filled hy go:i\ntlemen appointed directly by the gov\nernment, and an appointee of the\ncouncil from one of its number. The\nlicense commissioners are appointed\nin much the same way, but what we\nwish to point out is that they are\nappointed, and not elected by the peo- j\npie. I\n. 'It is to change this order of things\nthat the Victoria Voter's League pre\nsumsbly tool; act'en. and the opinion\ni3 expressed in this cUy that it wonlrt\nbe an excellent thing If the member.1\nof the police and licensing commis\nsions were elected by the people instead cf being appointed, a3 the custom now is.\nIn certain cities it is customary t-\nelect some of these officials in the\nusual way, that1 is by voting for them,\nand it is extremely likely that the\nMunicipal Commission will hear a\ngreat deal on the subject before its\nperegrinations are over.\nDalton's Concentrated Lemonade\nDalton's Concentrated Orangeade\nA pure food product affording a delicious hot weather beverage.\nEacb bottle makes 12 glasses,\nSPECIAL PER BOTTLE 10c.\nTHE PEOPLE'S GROCER\nTHREE BIG STORES:\nCity\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD605 Columbia street. - Sapperton\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD317 Columbia street.\nWest End\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDCorner Twelfth street and Sixth avenue.\nand one that gives Ireland the chief\nproportional beneflt of the union,\nEng.

A3 such shipping\nis not now privileged to enter into\ntbe American coastwise trade, which\nalone under the committed s report, is\nto receive favored treatment in the\ncanal, that objection is overcome.\nIt is regarded aj possible, however,\nthat in deference to Canadi, the Brit I\nish Government may object to thr-\nprohibition ot the passage of railroad-'\nowned ships. State department officials, however, are confident that this\nobjection would not hold under the\ntreaty a3 the prohibition is applied to\nAmerican vessels as well as others,\nand there could be no charge of discrimination.\nIRISH TAXATION.\nOne of Ireland's grievances, one\nthat arose long ago and continued as\na tradition, was the charge that the\nBritish Empire! was draining Ireland\nfinancially by'means of tax collections\nand in return was only spending a\nsmall proportion of the money so obtained, in Irlsa improvements.\nPossibly, in the past few years, in\nview of the better spirit between Ireland and Britain, this charge has lost\nmost of its fofc^ and bitterness. Yet\noccasionally, it still raises its head.\nNot so long'ftgo one of the most bitter of Ireland's present national cham\nplons intimated something of the kind\nin an important speech.\nA recent British hlue book shows ir\n\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD detail the annual amount won from\neach portion of Oreat Britain in taxes,\nand the amount annually spent on the\nnecessities or eacn division of the\n\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD empire. This plainly tells that, at pre\nsent. Ireland is getting proportion\nately as much out of the partnershi]\nas any other division.
