to vote their own salaries, but it is only are of many such anomalies which are insepamble from the system of Govern- ment which exists in this Colony. Under this system, the removal of one anomaly generally requires the sub- stitution of another, and in the end it comes to be a case of choosing the lesser of two evil. As rogards the particular one against which the Un- official Members have ranged them selves in order of battle, if it were to be removed-if the Official 1.26 Members were not to be allowed to vote or questions in which they are di- 1.50 rectly pecuniarily interested, then these questions would be left entirely to the Unofficial minority. However pleasing that might be to the Colony it would certainly put suit the Colonial Office, and any idea of its over being brought to pass may be at once abandoned. The protest, however, will not be without. ite good effect. Recent events in the Couuel have tended to demonstrate 1,00 very clearly the absurdity of the post- tion which the Unofficial Members are expect to be content to occupy. If in return for the privilege of wearing (within the limits of the Colony) the title lonourable' they will do their 1.25 best to make things comfortable for the Fer Cam.
