'The English Parliament was pro- .rogued on Friday. In the Queen’s speech it was shown that Canada’s .fiscal legislation recently passed at Ottawa was an evidence of the at- tachment .of the colonies to thelmother country. ‘The Queen's speech pro roguing parliament contained the lowing paragraph bearing upon the denounced treaties.:-â€"-â€" " I have given notiae'to 'the ‘King of the Belgians and the German Em- kperor to terminate the treaties of 1862 and 1865, whereby I am prevented .from making with my colonies such Fiscal arrangements within my em- ;p're as seem to me expedient.” The afl’air may seem to be none of ours, but for the sake of our national game we claim it our privilege to speak piainly. Lacrosse roontests be- tween rival athletes should not only test the abilities of each club, but should create amore kindly feeling 'among the contestants. This :will .not be done so long as ‘people insist on magnifying the shortcomings of their opponents while shutting their eyes to their own imperfections. “ It. was feared by our local twelve that they would not: receive the fair- =est of treatment at the hands of the referee, as they opposed his election to the Presidency in the spring, and 'he ruled off-unfairly as many he- lievedâ€"Awe of our players and com- pelled Stoufi‘villc to play 10 against 12 in the latter part of the match, not a few thought it was done for a purpose and naturally hard feelings existed against him for the time being." checking,” “ rough grounds,” “ in- :terfcrence on the part of spectators,’ &c., &c,, and broadly hints that the :refcree was bought by the Stouffville men. bis opponent across the head, and also expresses want of confidence in the referee as the follow quotation will Show :â€" On the other hand the Stouffville Free Press, while admitting splendid work on both sides, accuses a Mark- Eham player of deliberately striking “Ibo Markham Sun compares the match to “A Donnybrook at the hands of Stoufi‘ville," and excuses the defeat on the plea of “dirty hard But what do we find ? Instead of the newspapers of the respective ‘villages congratulating each other on their fine lacrosse teams, they are pelting each other with mud, and saying things that will irritate and stir up ill-feeling between them. ’Ii LIBERAL representative witness- ed the last Stoufi‘ville-Markham la- crosse match played at Stoufi‘ville, ‘and left the grounds With the feeling that it was one of the fairest, most interesting and best expositions of the national game that he has seen for many a year. We felt inclined to compliment both teams on their very excellent play, and on the good temper displayed throughout the match. We tlmght‘that the umpires iacted with coolness, and that they gave their decisions impartially. And we were also tempted to pat‘ referee ‘Craig on the back for 1 his courage in sending to the fence ‘ players on both sides, whom he con- sidered were acting unnecessarily Roughly with their opponents. It is ‘true there was some heavy checking and violent throwing on both sides, and, as is always the case, some of the supporters showed at times more fienthusiasm than good judgment. :’But admitting these little drawbacks 'we still maintain it was a match that the sister villages should have been 'proud of.
