on the presentation of their address to the Queen. Although the date had been fixed Yang enough before-hand, the Court officials seem to have made no sufficient arrangements for securing the comfort or maintaining the dignity of the legislators. They were kept waiting for an unconscionable time huddled together in a hall, with no places to sit down and no refreshments, and then the ceremony was se hurried through that it was over before most of the M.

Mr. Bartley has been voicing the dis sat faction which is felt by a -good many pri-vote members on both sides of the House, at the way in which they have been treated throughout the present celebrations. Mr. Bartley says he has not had an official invitation to anything whatever—even to the Queen's Garden Party which takes place next Monday. As for the ceremony outside St. Paul's not even ex-Cabinet Ministers were invited to that—with the exception of Sir William Harcourt and Lord Kimberley and Liberals are complaining that a party bias has been observable throughout the arrangements. Thus in the Jubilee Honours list not a single Radical finds a place, except among the colonial recipients of honours.
