He said: Ir-Ionourable members, my reasons or wishing fowwozdstotheliouse atthe present time are briefly set out in my notice on the Orgler Paper.

Now let us remember that the official receivers are the men who initiate s. an.“ l; limit m“ “f; e < e e epen upon an bears s, re tlon to what these men begin. Therefore it is reasonable to assume that if the cost under this head was more than double what it was for the nreceliing year, it would at least be doubled under all the other heads. This brings the probable cost of administration of he Act on Prince Edward Island for flie to nine times whalt it was in New Brunswick. and thirty-six times what it was in Nova scotia. Hon.
