Discounts in the Land Office.

For manifest reasons the Government organ wishes to say as little as possible

A New Loan.

TAKING advantage of a time at which | money is plentiful in London, the Govern-

/ment of Canada have placed upon the mar-

| ket a loan of £2,250,000 stg. to pay off the

| floating debt incurred by reason of with- | drawals from the Dominion Savings Bank

about the shortage in the Land (Office, the | occasioned by the lowering of the rate of in-

mortgage vote, and the King’s County

gerry mander.

tional monstrosity, the are now in the hands of Lord Stanley, who on to deal with them ac- cording to the constitution. But the shortage in the Land Office is a matter for which the people of the Province will have to find a remedy. The Government may try to bluff inquiry and cover up wrong doing. But wait awhile. The bulk of tha people believe in square Cealing, and will find out, sooner or later, whether the deficit is caused by the default of anybody, or whether it has been given away by Mr, Premier Peters, like a great part of the

9,552.00 (already admitted), for political purposes.

The shortage is not the only feature of the Land Office management requiring ex- amination. We have already charged that manv of the deductions and allowances made during the year 1891 by Premier Peters, are dishonest, corrupt and scandal- ous, and we have supported the charges by citing a few cases showing the shamefu ly unequal way in which parties have been treated in the settlement of their accounts. Evidently the rascality involved in some of these transactions is too great fur even the Patriot to defend, for it has not yet said one word in regard to these deductions. We regret that we cannot fiad space for the full statement— submitted to the House —of accounts closed last year. From that statement it appears that ninety-seven per- sons paid off their accounts in the year, amounting to $6,817.06, and received no discount whatever, while ninety-seven other persons paid $8,182.78, and were allowed $3,14478 in discounts! Why should hard-working farmers, like Mesars. John Moynagh and Alexander McNabb, of Lot 35, Andrew Clark and Cornelius Mc- Intyre, of Lot 37, and Gorham Cook, of Little York, be compelled to pay their accounts to the last cent, while the Con- nolly estate is allowed a discount cf $14.28 on an account which was not opened until after the Act authorizing the 12 per cent. discount had passed the Legislature ? In Lot 48 the farms of Messrs. William Pippy and Benjamin Stewart lie side by side. They owed respectively $103 37 and $105.69. Mr. Stewart is allowed a discount of $38.95, while Mr. Pippy only gets a re- duction of $15.19. On the accounts of Messrs. Duncan MeLean and Neil Me- Nevin of Lot 65, $634 were paid last year, and a discount given amounting to $86, at the rate of 12 per cent. But in the cases of the five names following immediately after those of Messrs. McLean and Mc- Nevin in the official statement the amount paid was $920, and the discount $378.12, or at the rate of 29 per cent! These last named persons do not belong to Lot 65. Six men from Lot 65 whose names follow each other consecutively in the list paid $1057.79, and received all told $12.62 dis- count, a little over 1 per cent ! ! Is it be- cause an election took place in the First District of Queen’s abeut the time of the passing of the Peter's Act that so many plums in the shape of reductions have gone to that part of the country? One man in the First District who changed his politi- cal coat in that election gets a reduction of $73.19, or a discount of nearly 30 per cent! Mr. John McQuarrie of Lot 29 pays «a debt of 354.13 with $25. Mr. Peters makes him a present of $29 13. The rate of reduction is 54 percent. Mr. Malcolm Bell pays an account of $158 41 with $95.41. He is presented with $63. The rate of discount is 40 per cent. Is it because they are tories that Mesars. Isaac Myers, Abraham Myers, Edward McVittie and George Trowsdaleare only allowed $27.88 on payments amounting in all to $244.07 ? Perhaps so, and it may also be that Messrs. Peters and Warburton regard a number of other farmers of Lot 29 safe to vote Crit under any circumstances, and, therefore, reserved their especial favors for Messrs. McQuarrie, Bell, Rogerson and others.

Up to the time the present Government came into power, about six thousand peo- ple had paid their accounts in full at the Land Office, including principal and in- terest. I: is undeniable that a very large proportion of these purchasers mort- gaged their farms in order to fulfil their obligations to the Government. In addi- tion to paying interest on their loans, they will be taxed heavily one of these days to make up the loss entailed on the country by Mr. Peters’ corrupt squandering of the assets of the Province. Reductions of any kind are unjust ro the poor men whose land is paid for. But the unequal reduc- tions made by the present (iovernment re- flects not only a rank injustice on the whole community, but conatitutes what cannot be regarded as anything less than a public robbery.

~in this Province a person may have as many votes for different constituencies as he has property in them,and the Liberal party in the Legislature,led by Mr. Peters,have pissed an act to give an additional vote in each and every district to a person who holda a mortgage on a farm in such district!

Notes and Comments —The Toronto Globes says: ‘‘We in Canadas have equal constituencies, or are supposed to have them, and there is no good reason why the one-man-one-vote principle should not be enforced.” No. Except when a grit government desires to hold power by the votes of a minority of the people.

— There was committed to the earth to- day the mortal part of one of our oldest and most highly respected citizeus—Mrs Owen. Mrs. Owen came to Char!o:tetown upwards of seventy years ago. Her hus- band, the Hon. Thomas Owen, was for many years Postmaster General of Char- lottetown ; and he was at different times succeeded in this responsible oftice by two of ber sons, the Hon. Thomas Owen and the Hon. L C. Owen. She leaves behind her nv less than a hundred and one living descendants, including the Hon. L. C. Owen, the wife of the Hon. Dwvid Laird, the wife of A. A. Macdonald (Senator,) the wife of D H. McGowan, Esq , P. E. Isiand Riilway, Charles Owen, Esq , Collector of Custews at Georgetown, Wallace O ven, Esq., of the Civil Service of Canada, and George Owen, Esq , (her grandsun) recent- ly High Sheriff of King’s County.

—This is Mr. Gladstone's opinion of a proposal, during the Reform bill contro- versy in 1867, to give a second vote to those who paid taxestothe amount of twenty shilliogs a year :

“To the dual vote I record an implacable hostility. This dual vote is, in the first place, a gigantic engine of fraud, It is a proclam- ation of a war of classes. The British consti- tution rests and has rested from time immem- orial on the mutual good will, respect and good feeling of the people, upon the equality which they enjoy before the eye of the law. But when you place in the hands of the rich man, under the notion of fortifying his pos- ition, this weepon to use against his poorer countrymen, on that day you sow oppression.”

Yet our Liberal Party —save the mark— has given another vote to every rich man who holds a mortgage! They have sown oppression. But the Lieutenant-Governor has prevented its taking root for some time to come. Royal Arch Masons. THE GRAND CHAPTER GATHERS IN ANNUAL SESSION AT AMHERST.

The annual convocation of the Grand Chapter of Royal Arch Masons of Nova Scotia was held at Amherst on Tuesday. On the opening of the proceedings eight subordinate lodges were found to be rep- resented, including ouclying districts, such as P. E. 1. and Yarmouth,the former send ing six representatives, After preliminar- ies, the address of the most excellent grand high priest was read and well re- ceived. The address was full and ex- hauative in every detail. The reports of the visitations of the subordinate chapters were very interesting, especially could that be said of the one from St. John’s, Nfld. Reports from six chapters in addition to those personally represented were read, the work of those officers appointed to visit the various chapters being highly commended. The report of the committee of general purposes and also that of the treasurer were very satisfactery, the latter showing a balance on hand of nearly $200. The grand secretary's report showed that all the chapters, twelve in all, in the jurisdiction had forwarded to him their returns and dues in fall, each chapter being reported in a healthy and vigoroua condition. The grand officers were instailei by the retiring grand high priest, Wm. Crowe, assisted by i A. Cosman, as follows: W B Alley, of Truro, MEG HP; S W Crabbe, of PEI, R EG K; MG Marshall, Liverpool, R EGS; Rev. H D Deblois, R E G, chaplain; Dr Darrach, REGCH; AB Crosby, RE GP 8; Robie McLeod, R EGRAC; A McLeod, REG, 3rd vail; C A Tanner, R EG, 2nd vail; M J Saville, R EG, Ist vail; H W Yuill and G I Carter, grand stewards; J Ross, grand organ- ist; W Williams, grand pursuivant; J J Me- Kiel, grand tyler.

OTTAWA LETTER

Some Interesting Items.

(Special correspondence of The Examiner.)

I observe that THe EXaMineR has _ pub- lished the *‘ good joke” about Speaker White sending to the Rideau Club for a couple of packs of cards, and the messen- ger by mistake going to Rideau Hall and delivering the message to the Governor- General, who, seeing the joke, immed- iately sealed up two packs and sent them to the Speaker with his compliments. It is a pity to spoil a good thing, but there is not a word of truth in the story from beginning toend. The “good joke” was ‘‘ faked” by the ‘* Ottawa Liar,” or scmeone else with a lively imagination.

Neither is there any truth in the very circumstantial report, published in some of

the papers, of the dismissal of a clerk in the Marine Department, fur having made a false entry of the time of his arrival in the cffice—the Minister telling him he was a liar, and that he had no use for liars and to ** get up and get,” &.

Every now and then a rumor circulates that Mr.—I beg his pardon-—Sir John Caldwell Abbott is to retire from the Premiership within a short while and Sir John Thompson will take his place. If we are to judge from signs, I do not think such a change immediately probable. First of «ll—the lease of the Gilmour House, which the Prethier had for the winter, has expired, and Lady Abbott, who has recently arrived at the capital, is look- ing for another house, which means that they intend taking up their residence in Ottawa. And if they do not find a suitable house, it is said that they purpose build- ing. Another reason ia that if Sir John Thompson accepts the appointment of British Arbitrator in the Behring Sea matter, which would necessizate his ab- sence from Canada for some tima, it is not probable that any change will take place till after the arbitration is ever, which is loug enough ahead to make prophecies risky. For the summer, however, the Premier's family will live at Ste. Anne, their usual summer residence.

When the House met on Monday the Secretary of State, Mr. J. C. Patterson, took the epportunity of letting Mr. Lister know what he thought of the latter’s con- duct in charging him, during his absence a few days before, with having been sent by theGovernment into North Perth to handle boodle. These were Mr. Lister's words :

** Notwithstanding the fact that you sent your Secretary of State up there to handle the boodle, we carried the constituency of North Perth, We know when the Secretary of State goes what influence he carries with him, and he did not go there this time without the necessary iufluence, but in spite of all that in- fluence we carried North Perth,” etc.

Mr. Patterson gave a distinct and em- phatic denial to Lister's charges. He said :

** Never in my life have I taken money for election purposes or corrupt purposes of any kind into ayy constituency in Ontario. I did not take one doliar into North Perth. I was never entrusted with any subscription raised in the Senate Chamber or elsewhere to be sent to that constituency.”

Thenarose Lister and took back everything he had said about Mr. Patterson—he never meant to say anything against that gentie- man—all he intended to say was that money had been spent freely in the North Perth and other elections by the Conservative party, but his charges were vague and general. When Mr. Patterson was absent from the House, Lister was very cour- ageous—the Secretary of State he openly charged as being the handler and distribu- tor ot the boodle, but when Mr, Pattersoa faced him he took everything back.

How characteristic of the grits! In the same way was Somerville glad to repudiate the charges he made against Col. Devison He was not man enough to withdraw them, but he sneaked out of them—he rever meant them to apply personaly to Col. Denison, etc.

In the same way with the charges against Sir Adolphe Caron. Tae grits were too cowardly to put on paper what they uttered in their speeches; and when the Govern. ment took their words, as reported in Han- sard, in which they ch=rged Caron with heaps of things which dil not appear in the list laid before the House, and amended the indictment by incorporating their spoken charges with their written charges, Edgar declares he is unable to prove them, and Cartwright announces that the grits will ignore the commission and not »ppear before it at all.

In reply to Mr. Lister, Mr. Patterson said that his own election in West Huron and the elections of a number of other On- tario Conservatives were now in the courts, and if such a terrible condition of bribery and corruption existed as Lister had por- trayed, he would have an opportunity of proving it before the judges,

Then Mr, Guillet, M. P., for West

Northumberland got up and went for Lister lively for afew minutes. Lister had ! referred to the corruption in Guillet’s con- stituency. Guillet denied that the Con- servatives had used corruption, the best proof of which was that the Grits had not contested the election. But the Grits had used the grossest corruption. A gang of personators had been organized by the notorious Preston, the Secretary of the Grit Associaticn, and had gone through the riding on election day and had succeeded in getting in a number of votes. But two of them had been caught and were now in gaol awaiting trial.

After Dr. Macdonald, of Huron, had obtained an order for a return of the quantity of coal oil and kerosene oil im- ported for consumption from Ist July, 1891, to Ist May, 1892, Mr. Armstrong rose and moved :

** That it is expedient that power be given to the Legislative Assembly of the Northwest Territories after the next yeneral election of members of said Assembly to deal with all matters perteining to education and the use of dual languages in the courts and in the proceedings of the said Assembly ; providing, however, that no school section as at present constituted shali be interfered with without the consent of the parties composing such section.”

Mr. Armstrong supported his motion in a moderate speech.

Mr. Clarke Wallace moved in amend- ment :

“That all the words after that’ in the main motion be struck out and the followin

inserted in lieu thereof: ‘In the opinion o this House the Legislative Assembly of the Northwest Territories should be empowered

to deal with al! matters relating to education in the said territories.”

Mr. Dovlin (for him) spoke moderately and well, He is very fluent, has a ready command of both languages, but he is a young man who has yet to learn that there are occasions when ‘“‘silence is golden.” Mr. Devlin said that as the proper educa- tion of theirwhildren was a matter of fxith with Cacholics, such reselutions as Mr. Armstrong’s or Mr Wallace's could only be regarded as a notice to Catholics that they were not wanted in the Northwest. He instanced the Province of Quebec to show that the Protestant minority were treated with justice by the great Catholic major- ity, and he quoted the late Hon. Thomas White and Sir William Dawson to prove that such was the case. He pleaded that the Cathoke minority in the Northwest should be treated in regard to education in ‘the same spirit of justice as was meted to the Protestants of Quebec. How could they expect che Catholic people of Quebec to settle in the Northwest if such a resolu- tiou was passed.

Mr. Scriver, M. P., (Liberal, for Hunt- ingdon, P. \, and one of the noble thir- teen, made a notable speech. Mr. Arm- strong’s motion, so far as it related to the dual language, met his views, Dut on the question of separate schools he joined issue. He said :

‘** Allusion has been made by several gentlemen to the position held by the Protestant minority in the Province of Quebec, in relation to their schoul system. 1 am oneof that Protestant minority, and Lam here to\ express my concurrence in the statement already made, that the Prot- estant minority in that Province has been treated since Confederation, with perfect fairnesf and with full liberality by the Roman Catholic majority. The Protest- ants of that Province cou'd not live there, were they not accorded the privileges in regard to the education of their children which they now enjoy. Holding the views which Roman Catholics do conscientiously hold, and they being largely in the major- ity, 1f we had «a common school system there, and but one school where all relig- ious tenets would be taught, the Protest- ants would not and could not possibly ac- cept it. This being the case, and it being the fact, that we have seen treated with perfect fairness and perfect libsralicy in the Province of Quebec, | do not see how Pro- testants, taking a proper view of this ques- tion, can fail to consent to extend to their Roman Catholic fellow-citizens the same privil-ges which they enjoy themselves. I cannot give my support to a prop sition which would deprive the Roman Catholi¢ population of the Northwest from the en- joyment of the privileges which the Pro- testants of the Province of Quebec have epj yed and do enjoy, and I believe will continue to enjoy in the future. I cannot consent to give my support to a motion which, at some time or other—if it would not have that immediate effsact—wouid com- pel the Roman Catholics of the Northwest either to allow their children to grow up io ignorance, or to send them to schools which it would be a violation of their religious convictions to send them to.”

Mr. McCarthy was in favor of the peo- ple of the Northwest dealing with the school question themselves. He had not referred to separate schools two years ago because he wanted to have an appeal from the people of the Northwest. If the peo- ple there had been satisfied with the law it would have been unnecessary for him to have brought forward any discussion on the floor of Parliament. Now they had memorialized this House to be allowed to deal with their schoul system as they thought proper. If the other provinces were deprived of this privilege, they would look upon it as a gross injustice and a gro38 outrage upon their rights and liber- ties. All be asked for the people of the Northwest was that they be allowed to do what was right and proper. He did not intend to follow the discussion as to whether there ought or ought not to be eeparate schools inthe Northwest. But as the law now stood every member of the House took the responsibility of saying that there must be separate schuo!s. He had no desire of exciting on this occasion the same feelings which he had aroused on a former occasion; uot that he had changed his opinien, not that he did not think it would be to their common in- terest if they spoke one language and had one set of books and believed in the one theory of government, etc., but he realized that his hon. friends bad taken the motion that he made, which ouly affected the North-west Terri- tories, as an attack upon what they regarded as an institution they prided theselves in possessing in the Province of Quebec. They were dealing now with the North-west—a great country, which™ before many years would overshadow the eastern part of the Dominion, While laying the foundations of the great state as part of the Dominion, no one would say that it was proper to establish two separate tongues. This was a question which they had to deal with here. It was not a question of the Provinces of Quebec, but a question of another part of the great Dominion of Canada. They should be a unit in the North-west as ove nationality, and not lay it down that there shouid be two

J languages and two racial distinctions which

existed m other parts, unhappily, of this Dominion.

Mr. McCarthy concluded by moving in amendment to the amecdment, that all the words after “that” in the main motion and the amendment be s*ruck out, and the following inserted in li-u thereof: “It is expedient that the limitation and re- striction upon the authority of the Assembly of the North-west Territory in the matter of education and the enactment respecting the use of the French language in the courts and the compulsory publication of ordinances in that language should be repealed.”

Hon. David Mills said he held on this subject the same views he had expressed two years agoin the House. Mr. MeJarthy had said the dual language qnestion was a national question, whereas tbe establishment of schools was %® purely provincial question. They might learn something from the ex- perience of other countries in which the people of other count:ies live together. Mr. McCarthy thought it would be better if all Canadians spoke one language, whether English or French. He did not hold that view. He maintained his right to speak his mother tongue, and he conceded to others the same right. In Britain there were about a million people speaking Welsh, this number being @ much smaller proportion of the whole population than the number speaking Frei ca in Canada, yet the Welsh langua.e was used in all local matters, whether relating to political or social affairs, in a more meorked degree than a hundred years ago. When Louisiana was taken into the Union the French language was left as an official language, and only twelve or fifteen years was this — of French done away with. Spanish

ad a similar hietory in connection with

‘ Californias. In the States, where the Nor- | wegian population was large, he understood the children were allowed to study in schools in their native langnage. This matter of langaage would settle itself. If the influx of French into the North-west was large, French would be perpetuated, but if not, and the Fr-nch were scattered among other peop'ie, they would sooa cease to speak French, for language was a matter of convenience. Canada had difficulties «enough without making or reviving others. To provoke a contest between the two races would nut be « good means of helping the se .tlement of the | Northwest. He contended that no feature of | Russian despotism was worse than that of | attempting to force Poland to accept the | Russian language As to the question of | sovereign rights, he contended that the people of the Territories were not consulted on any part of the constitution. It was made for them, and as they went into the country they accepted it. There was even a stronger case in the fact that the new sovereign states in the United States, which joined the original thirteen, by whose people the constitution was made, accepted that constitution as it was iven. Had any grievances sprung up in the North west because of this matter of education ? He had heard of none. Taken altogether, Oniavio’s settlement of the question of Separate schools was better than that of any in the states of the United States. The pro- portion of pupils in the Separate schools was smaller than that in the Parochial schools in Michigan, for instance, where the people supported purely private and voluntary schools. Besides, in Oataiio the teachers were better and more aniformly educated, and the schools were open to public inspection aud were altogether better.

It being six o'clock the Speaker left the chair and the debate stands over indefinitely; perhaps it may come up again this session and perhaps not. Two features were noticeable in the discussion of the question viz , its modera‘ion and total freedom from acrimony as compared with former debates; and the fact that the opponents of separate schvols as at present existing are divided into three camps —Arinstrong’s, Clarke Wallace’s and McCarthys. They don’t know th«cmselves exac.ly whut they want.
