THE REMAINING BUSINESS.
Sir Joseph Ward has faithfully fulfilled all expectations as to rushing business at the end of the session. With the end of the session fixed for Friday next he made a s’ratenient yesterday afternoon of the business he proposed to go on with. The measures in hand to be dealt with total thirty three with some probable additions. It may be admitted that many of the measures are of a purely local nature, but it is also to be seen that legislation of a highly impoitant character is being introduced and neither the House nor Council will have a reasonable opportunity for consideration. Sir Joseph says there are no contention;, measures in the list and there is no reason why the House should not get through if it attends to business. Possibly the Premier kn twr. more about the work than we do, but to the ordinary man of business n seems a p'-sitive scandal to attempt the passage of 33 bills within a week.
