Y., February 13.— That England has one great custom in the Government—they can bring before the House of Commons in open session any cabinet member or the premier and ask him what he has done and what he has in mind for the future, and he has to tell em. Today they questioned Mr. Macdonald himself about the con- ference. We don't do it over here. It would be too embarrassing to our officials to have to admit what little they had done and extremely hu- mflbfl? to explain what they had in mind for the future, when they had no in mind. After their appointment, if they are not im- peached, we never hear of them again. They only have one obliga- tion here. ‘They have to sign the pay roll in person.
