To the Editor op the Nelson Evening MailSir, — Mr. Luckie, in a passing allusion to myself to-day, said that what I stated was mere assertion, and told you it was like " sounding brass or a tinkling smybol." Now, Sir, if I had the brass or the audacity .of Mr. Luckie, land had been placed in bis position the other evening at the passing of' the Highways Bill, I would have raised such a sound in that house, even tbe sound of a brazen trumpet against such an iniquitous principle of allowing such as the clergy or ; ov Provincial .Government officers to go through the tdllgate without payment. _ _..„.,,.„. _...?'• ;.:: -!";. vi (~ : /':Jy ;M?Lw^ c ii ».."'.
