Under the Dome in the Legislature
Debates dominated the week as the Libel Act amendment stalled in committee and the W bounty act was repealed. A Public Utilities Board report on the street railway faced committee review while Haig accused the government of election politics over $1000 in road work. The House examined provincial federal correspondence, hopper plague plans grew, and sessions closed with a call to press Ottawa on high interest rates. Queen briefly retired from the chamber over unparliamentary remarks.
