lop. Mr. Peters said that this matter had not been approached without the most carefal consideration. The matter hai engag-d their attention last session, and during recess it had bean considered by

the people, and tley, two the number of about 2,000, had peutionedthe Governu- ment for anew Coley» building, The

present building, was altogether snadequate, and there were many rea-ons why & new one should be built. If there was one institution inore than auother that was deserving of credit that institution was Prioee of Wales Col

the pettioners claimed,

lege. From it have gone forth many brilliant scholars, notable among whom

was Professor Schurman, who was now President of Corneil University. Pro- ceeding, he pointed out thatthe ‘proposed bauilling would pot take # ent ont of the pockets of the people. The Government had impored fees upon — students attending the Colleg-,axd these fees, be added, were not obj-c ed to by the peuple. in round numbers $1400 had been obtained in fees last year. {[t was proposed to take the-e fees and set them aside as a sinking fuud out of wh ch not only the intere<t ou the cost of constrnetion would come but the principal as well. Supposing that the building cost $20,600, the interest ou that suin at ‘4 p.c. wili hs $800 a year The sum of $1400 is obtained from fees now, and after $500 of tas sum is taken for in- terest their will be $600 left to ‘set aside as @ sinking Gund) ont of which “the principak wigt bé paid, The Che ¢? eduld thius be built without costing the. ‘country f@ single dollar except the students’ fess, aud it w itt be all paid for within thirty Years, ©

Sion Mr. Forbes seeonded the motion.

, Hon. Mr, Gordon said it might be all right to proceed With the erecuon of the

dulilding if the finances of the country

warranied such a larg- expenditure. He for one would willingly doso. But he failed to see thatthe province wasin a position to undertake the work under pre- sent circumstances. Too many young nen come trom the country to the Co!lege instead Ufauendifng the high schools iu

their own sections. He took it that the College was for putting tbe finishing toutes: upon one’s education. All that

theaverage student needay he though, could be obtained iv the high schools. No doubt it would be very pleasing to the

eople of Charlottetown to see a new build- Jng put.up, but he failed to see where the anoney was to coufe from. There was at the present time a debt of $509,900 hang- ing over the province, aud he could not see his way clear to add to this iudebted- ness,

The motion carried and Mr. Aitkéu took the chair in committee.

Mr. Campbell thought it would ‘be well to move Cautiously in : the matiter in view of the deplorable condition of our finances. He had looked parily over the petition ~

He strongly. denounced the attempt to fasten a debt of $20,000. upon the people, and condemaed any. further expenditures, the “burden of which. must eventually fall upon the shoulders of the farmers. laa

Hon. Mr. Peter’ *said-that there were the names of 1 any property holders to the petition, and some of them were good Con- servative, teos He instanced the names of Jobn McLean, Souris, and the Prowses, of Murray Harbor, asa proof that property holders had signed the petition. There was no underhand work about the petition and the students wete not opposed to pay -? ing the collége fees.

Mr. Cumpbel! said he tock the stand he did in the interests of the taxpavers, rath - erthau inthe interests of party. He was not pandering to any class, but he would always act in the best interests of the people.

M-. Rogere ¢Alberton) thongbht there should be a new building, and®said its ere - tion would not add apything to the bur- dens of the people. Many of the school buildings in the country districts were superior to the college. He believed the students had willingly paid the f-es, be-

He referred to the fees paid by the students, and claimed that every principle of responsible gov- ernment had been violated when these fees were impozed by the present administra- tion without the consent of the representa- tives of the people. He had heard many complaints against these fees. If the Government could levy a tax on students at their own sweet will. Why could they: not levy taxes on property in the same way,

Mr. Warburton referr d to the splendid ark done by the College in the past, and epoke of the necessity there was for a new building. Even if the Priacipa! were removed there would not be ‘room in the present building. He pointed out that the fees paid bv the students had always been imposed, bat they had never been collected until the present Govern- ment came into power.

Mr. A. J. Macdonald thought: that the Government were not justified Iu adding

to the indebtedness of tue Province at the present time when they were uot able to | pay their bills, He thought that there; was room for improvement in our eduaca- tioual system, and claimed that under existing arrangements the children of poor people were under a diradvantage, and that it was the enildren of the rich who got the benefit of ibe Colieg>.

Hon. Mr. Siaclair referred to the im- portance of maintaining the efliziency of our educationed system, which bad given such good resuligin the past. The cost of constructing the propo-ed building would be all paid io thirty years out of the fees paid by the students.

Mr. Campbeil put in another plea for care in this matter. He raid he could make the present building bold 390 stu- dents if he were given the opportunity. The present government had shown their feelings s towards the farmers of this prov- itce by removing from the College the professors of agrisultus e. The College fitted men for the professions rather than for life on the farm, aad was therefore of Jittle benefit to the farmer.

Mr. McKinnon pointed out that the Colleve afforded a good genera! education, and fitted one for any walk in life, The proposed new building would not. cost anything except the students fees,

Mr. Shaw puinted out that by imposing fees the Government had wate it harder to atiend’ college than it. was in former years, aud had the floor when reCes8 was taken at six o’clock.

At the evening session Mr. Shaw re- eumed the debate. He cere ta the dismiséa! from Prince of Wales College of be Professor of Agriculture, and claimed that under preseut conditions our boys and girls were tausst to dislike rather thao to like farming. He claimed tbat the Gov- ernment were not justified in fastehing a debi of $20,000 upon the taxpayers ‘of this province when it ws qnite possible to provide sufficient accommodation by the removal to other guarters of the principal who occupies about one fifih.of the -build- ing. He pointed out also, that at tue present time there,was a pew wing. to the

involue an expenditure of upwards of $25,000. For these reasons . amongst vthers he was, oppored. ta the erection of a new eSega: building | at. -the range times “/4ihy #. » The discussion was continued by Mesere Pkraubarson, Bell and Wise, after” which V the resolution was put and carried?
