The Provincial Budget. Hon. W. W, Sullivan's Speech,

(Concluded. )

Now, Mr. Speaker, having placed the Estimates before the House respecting ex- penditure, where isthe money to come from to meet it, and also to pay off what our opponents call our indebtedness / That is a vory important question, and I have no doubt it has been weighing upon the minds of hon. members opposite ever since the session commenced. Their anxiety, how- ever, differs from that of the Government. The Opposition are anxious to increase the

¢> our credit, so that next year we shall have a balance on the other side of the ac- count. The Government, therefore, }ave arranged with the Government of the Do- minion to receive the one-fyurth of one million of dollars, or the sum of $250,000, so that at the end of the year, if these |estimates come out as I think they will, ‘and. if we be placed in a position to realize our expectations, we shal] have a surplus at the end of the year, and also a surplus at the banks. I dare say this is very un- welcome news to the Opposition. but 1 am quite sure the cvuntry will bv pleased to learn that the Government have made an arrangement by which they will have placed at their disposal that very consider- able sum of muney. That amount we ex- ‘pect to receive within the present year. |We may not require to use the whole ‘amount ; but we can draw upon it as we ,wish. In that way we shall have at the

public indebtedness, while the Government end of this year a balance to our credit at ore cabled to re i We propose to ithe banks, and our little indebtedness will ee - alien tl eapenidsture a this way. | be entirely extinguished. So that after the

a can eid? f id he Rhamntane revenue end of our term of ten years, if we meet and the subsidy from the Dominion Govern- | }ere next session, we shall be in a position ment with which todoso. The subsidy /t, gay that we have fully maintained the

will be $193,537.20, including the addition | .egit of th “ : : te ’ e Province during that time. lately mada. Then we have the fees to be)}y addition to this, we shall be ina position

received from the office of the Provincial Seerétary, the Prothonotary, Registrar of Deeds, County Courts, Hospital for Insane, Prince of Wales College, Private Bills, Pedlers’ Licenses, Fines and Penalties, Vendors’ Licenses, rent of Warren Farm, ‘and Casual Revenue, amount- ing to $12,510.11. In the item of Pedlers’ Licenses, there has lately been a considerable increase owing to the number of persons taking out license. The sum received for Vendors’ Licenses is from per- sons licensed to sell spirituous liquors uoder the Canada Temperance Act. In addition to the items mentioned, we shall have a small refund fiom the Dominion Govern- ment on ‘*Land Account.” A_ small amount due the estate of the late M. Mc- Donnell, on account of the purchase of his lands, and which was formerly in dispute, was ordered to be paid during the past year, and will be paid this year. That will be drawn from the Land account, as it is for the purchase of an estate. Then there is another small amount paid on account of landd taken for railway purposes, which will also be withdrawn fromthe Federal Government. The two items amount to $346.79. In addition to these estimates, we shall probably receive fromthe Public Lands (Office the sum of $48,000. Last year was rather a poor one for our farmers, but this year we have reason to expect a prosperous season forthem. There is also another reason why we expect increased re- ceipts at the Land Office. The ten years allowed people to purchase the freehold of their farms are, in many cases, about to expire, and the Government will have to insist that the law of the Province respect- ing these payments shall be carried out, and that payment shall be made of the in- stalments due. We have, therefore, a right to expect larger receipts at the Land Office this year. The total of all these items is $254,394.10, or alittle over the estimated expenditure, as follows, viz. :—

That amount will be in excess of the es- timated expenditure by a small sum, so that if we do not receive one dollar beyond it we shall be able to balance our accounts for the year 1888. But I estimate that we shall receive something beyond that amount. There is a sum due us from the Dominion Government for pensions paid by this Province since Confederation, amounting to about $12,000, which we shall receive during the present year, and which will bring our receipts up to about $366,- 000; or about $12,000 over the estimated expenditure, to come and go on. Well, 1 may be asked: ‘* What are you going to about this indebtedness?” I deny that is an indebtedness at all in the guise men- tioned by the Opposition. The amount is $188,930.89; but the Opposition say it is over $230,000. As I stated the other day, since the begginning of the present year we pay 6 per cent. to the Banks for the use of that money. We have been asked what security we gave them for the repayment of the money. Well, the Province is security for its payment. The Banks asked no question about security, knowing well that they required no better security than the Government itself. At one of the Banks we have a considerable deposit upon which we receive interest. We have had before this. House statements showing expendi- tures made by Delegates on public busl- ness. The result of these delegations was that a considerable sum of money has been given to the Province. In the session of 1886 I stated in this House that one-eighth of one million of dollars would be received from the Dominion Government. Yet the Opposition laughed at the statement, aud isaid that it was only an election dodge. | After we received the $20,000 per year, | they said: ‘t You belied your promise, for you said you would receive one-eighth of one million dollars, but you have received only $20,000 per annum.” We replied that we had done better than we promised, as we had received the ioterest of halfa million dollars at four per cent per annum. They said : *‘ No. we want the principal itself; we prefer one-eighth of a million in cash to the interest on half a million.” That is the substance Sof what they said on that occasion. Well, our desire is to have the balances due

paid off, and to increase the amount placed |

,to say that we have improved the education system of the Province, very considerably, and that the expenditure thereon has been increased nearly one hundred per cent. We can also say that we have maintained the public service in a very eflicient stare, that we have expended $50,000 npon the build- jing of the Hospital for the Insane, that we have erected new buildings on the Stock Farm and imported much improved stock at a heavy expense. These are all valuable assets of the Province. Besides this, we shall have, I trust, a balance to our credit at the end of the year, after hav- ing greatly increased our capital at Ottawa, and dispensed with all taxes which hed been imposed on our farmeis. When the present Governinent came into power, the people had. been paying $45,000 per year, in direct taxation, upon which $10,000 was paid for collecting the same. When our opponents went out of power, they had only $906,872.14 to our credit at Ottawa. What sum have we now to our credit in the Dominion Treasury ? It has been increased by negotiation and otherwise until it has now reached asum of upwards of $2,000,-

000. In fact, we now have rather more than dvoubled the amount at our credit at Ottawa which

was there when we came into power, I have endeavored to show how we expect to carry on the affairs of the Province during the present year with an expendi- ture of about $12,000 less than in 1887, and I think I have shown that this will be done in a manner satisfactory to the people of this Province. I have now no further duty to perform for the present in rejerence to this matter. I have no doubt the state- ment which I have made will meet the approval of this House and of tie country generally, and that notwithstanding the statements made by our opponents and the nonsensical accounts of the doings of the Government published in their news- papers, it will be satisfactory for them to know that the Province is now in a better

Siz,—-With your correspondent ‘* Pro Bono Publico,” in a recent issue of your daily I, in the main, agree. I ikave been grossly deceived myself, and Jost the life of my best and most cherished friend by (what was afterwards proven to be) the professional ignorance and stupidity of one of these quacks. In many cases, and mine was no exception, they come twenty times where five would do, if they knew the real trouble. All this time of their experiment- ing the patient must be getting worse, and more diftiult to treat, where the disease is properly understood. In most cases it would be hatd to say and difficult to prove that the physician was responsible for the death of the patient, nevertheless such is too often the case. If they only could be held accountable for their ignor- ance and quackery, the fate of Millman would await many.

When we see the men (principally in the country) who assume that time-honored title, ** Doctor,” and attach **M. D.” to their signatures, and examine their educa- tion and qualifications, we are surprised at the quality of the material of which ** Docturs ” are made.

I would suggest that the names of all physicians be registered in Charloitetuwn, and that Mr. Chappelle devote a page of his almanac to the ‘* Names of Qualified Physicians.”
