INGREASE UNDER THE LIB. CON. 341,28) The total number of days worked at the Mines DECREASED 331,303 under ‘the Grits, and INCREASED 183,705 ‘under the Liberal Conservatives. There lwas 1,227 fewer men at work at the Mines in 1878, when the Grits went out, than in 1873, when they got in!

There is no more weeping and -wail- ing over the ruinous burdens the coostruction and operation of the Pacific | Railway were to impose on the crushed Dominion people. The lamentation on this account is a distastefu: memory of the past. Facts are proving that the lands of the North-West will amply pay the cost of the National railway through that country. The payment within the last few weeks into the Dominion Treas- ury from sales of land in the North- West of no less than $1,100,000, with ‘three times as much to follow in due time from the parties paying, forbids further tears from people disposed to raise a lamentable outcry over Dominion railway burdens. Clearly «the land will amply repay the cost of its settlement, and the settlers will pay the costs of government.. The absolute assurances afforded on these heads by the progress of events are to be greatly prized.

Tue Griis are able to point to an in- creased wggregate expenditure, because the country is now growing and the con- struction of important and much needed public works being forwarded. But there are certain expenditures that are directly controllable. A» few days ago we pointed out the expenditures of the Grits and Conservatives under the | Weights and Measures Act, and now we will contrast the expeoditures in- ‘curred ia the collection of customs duties :—

1873 (Lib.-Con. Year) 1876 (Grit Year) es

$658.299.34 721,008. 60 1877 721,704. 35 | 1881 (Lib.-Con. Year) 717,704.31

This shows an increase under the Grits aud a decrease under the Liberal-Cov- servatives.

The per ceatage of cost of collection to each one hundred dollars is also illus- trative of the kind of economy pursued by the Grits:

4 =

1873 (Liberal Con. Year) $5.99 1868 « 4.35 1878 (Grit Year) 5 58 1880 (Liberal Con. Year) 3.87

It will be seen the cost of collecting $100 of revenue was reduced from $5.99 to $4.35 from Confederation down to 1873 Then the Grits got in, and before they left the per centage had gone up to $5.53. Under the Liberal Conservatives

Tne Vernon River Church.

Yesverpay, I had the good fortune of examining this gem of architectural beauty, ‘The exterior taagnifieence of the building (is already known to your readers; the in- ‘terior is now being frescoed and beautified, under the master touch of Mr, Rdward Nordus, a gentleman of vast experiente and exquisite skill in the charming art of paint- ing. Whatever his magic brosh touches, seems to be animated with the freshneas and charm of life. The cil paintings are jmaster pieces, all throngh the vast and jmajestic building. The beauty of the main altar has been enhanced very much by ad- ‘ditional frescoing and paivting. On the right-hand side of the main altar is a grand |picture, in oil painting, of our Lord in the igarden of Olives. The picture, although \80 sad in itself, enlists the strongest sym- pathy of the spectator. The angel, although ;consoling our Lord, seems to be weeping, the bitter chalice standing by. The whole scene is a master-stroke of life and beauty. On the left-hand side of the main aitar is the Vision of our Lord to blessed Margaret ,and Mary, in establishing that dearest of /all devotions—the devotion to the sacred ‘Heart of Jesus. Around the ceiling, over ithe main windows, are beautiful pic- itures of the Apostles and wngelists. 'On the walls of the building are life-like |pictures of the Stations of the Cross. | Over the main allar is a magnificent picture jof St. Joseph. On the walls direetly over |the main aisle are the following charming

(On the right hand are *‘ The Infancy of Mary,” “‘The Annunciatien,” ‘*The Flight jinto Egypt,” ‘‘Our Saviour Communicat- ling with His Blessed Mother,” and ‘‘ The Assumption.” On the left hand are “‘ The Infancy of Jesus,” ‘St. John Baptising Our Saviour,” ‘‘ Jesus Restoring Sight to the Blind,” ‘ The Crucifixion,” and ** The Ascension.) The main window above the entrance is being beautifully frescoed. The pillars are varnished, and resemble the finest venetian marble. The whole temple pre- sents a grand appearance, and is certainly the finest Cathohe Church in this Diocese. This rough sketch does not givéany con- ception of its glowing beauty. - Let the lover of art take adrive through the ver- dant ficlds of Vernon River, and he will be repaid by a scene of artistic beauty rarely surpassed. The good Father James Phelan may truly say finis coronat opus—the end crowns the work. To this venerable priest ‘the diocese owes a debt of gratitude for ‘the zeal and untiring energy he has , di {played in etecieg Ocha, which is the inost beautiful gem in the whole Island. May he live many years to enjoy the fruit of his labor.—Com. bien scinenetailttidtt itt <n

Who Bears the Burden ?

The Toronto Mail says the mongrel F ise trade-Protection-Anti-progress party, by Mr. Blake, the ae of shitting aick- sand eginions, claim that the tariff is a burden, and that it bears most heavily upon those least able to bear it. This is not cerrect. With the exception of the duty on sugar, the revenue is largely der:ved from articles of luxury and articles imported to meet the demands of taste and fashion among the well-to-do !class which are not articles of luxury.

We import 71 millions of dollars’ worth of goods, paying a duty of 184 millions of dollars. Peady out raw sugar, six millions of dollars paying + million dollars of duty, and you have 65 million dollars of goods paying 16 million dollars of duty. Of these 65 miilions, 11 millions are luxuries paying 3} million dol!.rs duty. This leaves 54 million dollars worth of goods paying 124 millions duty. If these 11 million dollars of luxuries paid only the same proportion of duty as the necessaries, they would pay under one-fifth, or about 24 millions of dollars of duty. But they pay 34 millions, thns relieving the necessaries from the payment of a mil- lion dollars. If the burden were upon those least able to bear it, the figures would show the 54 million dollars worth of paying more than 13} millions, instead of only paying 12} millions. The following table will show how the luxuries are made to pay up:—
