PREFACE. vil matters of finance. At meetings of this council the Lieuten- ant-Governor is to preside, and he is allowed a vote as well as a casting vote. Before being introduced all money bills must be recommended by him to the Assembly. Notwithstanding the existence of this Assembly the constitution of the North West Territories differs in several important respects from that found in the provinces. The Territories do not constitute “a Province,” and the Assembly has therefore only such legislative powers as the Dominion Parliament, confers on it. The Lieutenant-Governor exer- cises the chief executive power and is not to the same extent as in the Provinces bound to defer to his advisers. No doubt in time the more settled districts in the Terri- tories will be formed into a new province. I am much indebted to Mr J. G. Colmar, secretary to the High Commissioner for Canada, for valuable assistance during the progress of the work; to Mr J. S. O'Halloran, secretary of the Royal Colonial Institute, and to the Librarian of the Colonial Office for permission to consult their libraries; and to my friends Professor T. N. Toller and Mr R.T. Wright for their kind aid in revising proofs. J. EB. C. M. 7, NEw SQUARE, Lincorn’s INN. h
