Excerpt from The Member's Manual of Practice and Procedure in the Legislative Assembly of the Province of Ontario: With Decisions of Mr. Speaker, From 1867 to 1893, Rules of the House, and Miscellaneous Information The experience of a quarter century Of legislation, with a single Chamber, has fairly tested the system inaugurated upon this Continent on a large scale when the Province of Ou'ario adopted it in 1867. It has developed a Paraamentary Practice which, while fashioned upon that of the British Isles, and adhering as closely to it as circumstances have permitted, has made some slight departures from the great con stitutional original upon which it was based. To give an intelligent outline of the Procedure of the Legislative Assembly of Ontario, as it exists to-day, and to afi'ord a guide to the new men who enter the Cham ber as law-makers for the first time after every General Election, has been the aim of the compiler of this little work. He makes no claim to origi nality in conception or execution of it, and frankly admits how deeply he has been indebted to the British Parliamentary authorities from whom he has freely quoted. He has not sought to make abig book, but to produce a short compendium of Parliamentary Law which may find, he hopes, a place in the desks of the Legislators of Ontario, and be of some service to the Members of the Sister Provinces which have discarded a Second Chamber. And, while this has been the main object which he has kept steadily in view, he fiatters himself that the Manual will be of equal use to the Municipal representative who desires to make himself familiar with the rules of debate and the various points of order, and form, which arise, from time to time, in the transaction of business of public character.
