THE MINISTRY
We have now no ministerial question ; Ministers, if defeated, accept the position, and still bold on to office, or, as in tho case of the gold fields delegation, and the committee of enquiry, to avoid a defeat, yield with as good or bad a grace as may bo, ail. or nearly all the Opposition may demand. We may be sure they will not go out of office for a trifle. Oh, no ! H.R.H. the Duke of Edinburgh is shortly to a’rive, and it would be foolish to permit a trifle of principle to drive them from office on such an occasion. Vicar cf Bray like, Mr Stafford will, whatever principles be in the ascendent, bold to his office still.
