On July 9th, 1891, after the present government obtained office, the actual debt of the Province, according to a statement furnished by the Assistant Provincial Secretary, amounted to

$53,442.21

Mr. Peters, then leader of the Government, declared that there- after revenue and expenditure would be made to meet---but there has never been a year since he made that statement without a deficit Here they are :

$288.649.06

The present government claim credit for having made the following reduction in the expenditure :

In the abolition of the Legislative Council........... $5,000

In the administration of Justice..... 3,000

In the Public Lands Office......... 1,217

In printing, &c.,.... 800

In abolition of the R te por ter for the House... 400 $10,417

The average expenditure of the Conservativ es for the twelve years’ they had the government, was $278,999; and the above savings having been made, the average cuneatrine of the present government should * have been $268,542. But, asa fact,the average expenditure of the present government for the past nine years was $304,511, or $35,969 per year more than they claimed it should have been.

The Conservatives obtained an additional subsidy from the Dominion Government of $20,000 per year. The present government obtained— NOTHING.

The last year the Conservatives were in power they paid for interest | $2,697.44.

The present government pz iid for interest last year $19,075.75.

In other words, the ADDITIONAL SUBSIDY of $20,000, obtained | by the Conservatives, is now paid away by the present government for , INTEREST on the DEBT created by them.

In a statement furnished by the Government on the 22nd May, 1906, | the debt of the Province was made up as follows :---

Balance due Banks . $159,365.63

Debentures 1891. 185.000.00 Debentures 1898- 1899. Soe oe, 000. 00 Deposits with the Governme nt. 152,435.77 | $531, 301. 49 l If you add to this, | Debentures authorized last session. . . $48,000.00 Sinking Fund used up................11,030.50 a Amount due Winsloe estate..... 4, ent 87 $63,568.17 ) You have a total debt of..... _ $595,370. 57

$631,370.57

Makin; a total of as the debt of the Province.

The present government says it spends more for Education than ed late government. Well, the Conservatives spent for the years 1879 1890 the average sum of $104,181 yearly.

The present government's average expenditure on education from 1891 to 1899 was $121,868 yearly, or $17,687 more than the Conservatives.

But they saved $10,417 per year which the Conservatives had to pay, and they collected on an average $48,108 per year IN TAXES, while the | Conservatives had NO TAXES,

The people may asx where the additional expenditure goes. Well; the answer may in part be found in the fact that more is spent upon the roads---BUT ONLY IN ELECTION YEARS.

In 1893 they spent on roads $50,178.

In 1897 they spent on roads $28,190.

In 1899, when there was NO ELECTION, they spent only $14,913.

In 1898 and 1897 there were elections.

This year, as there are two elections, the-expenditure will probably reach, if not exceed, that of 1893. -

The government are spending about $50,009 per year more than the revenue, and are now collecting $55,000 per year in taxes.

The debt of the Province is over $6(W,000, and if the present state of affairs continues the debt will seen be so great that no more mcney can be borrowed. Then will come TAXATION with a venge. nce.

The electors have now the oppertunity of stopping this reckless ex- p nditure, by voting the present incapable and extravagant party out

rovernment and the Dominion Gov- ernment in regard to the Hills- borough bridge, as I understand it the Island is bound to pay over to the Dominion Government $9,250.00 per year, together with the cost of covering the bridge, lighting, &c,, which will bring the amount up to the first amount agreed upon, $12,C0) per year, the Local Govern- ment collecting the tolls, for a oridge on which the teams and rail- | Way occupy the same track. Can you ascertain for the infor- | ation of the electors of this Pro-| vince what subsidy the Province of | wuebec is giving to the Dominion! sxovernment for the bridge between (Juebec and Levis, which is to cost about $5,000,000 ? The Govern- ment also gave the Grand Trunk | Railway $500,000 to rebuild the Victoria bridge, Montreal, and} allowed them to keep the tolls, which | were exorbitant, until a short| time previous to the Dominion | election, when they were reduced. | Iam very much afraid A.

A FEW QUESTIONS.

Sir,—When Sir Luis comes to

local elections,$ I sincerely hope the districts in w hich he may speak will | treat him as they did in Murray | Harbor and Belfast last vear. While | he is here I wouldask him what Mr. | Angus Ross, who is an employe of his department, has been doing on | the Island the past three months ?|

| Are the people of this Island paying |

this man a salary to travel around| the country to try and corrupt the! electorate with whiskey and other | devices peculiar to the great Party | = Purity? Mr. Ross was operating |

all the Ridings previous to the Tonitedien election and is now oper-! ating for Mr. Farquharson.

It is truly surprising how promptly Dr. Chase’s Syrup of Linseed and Tur- pentine brings relief whea the thr roat | is sore and irritated, when the cold is | tight in the chest, and ‘the cough paine ful and distressing. It allays the in- fiammation, heals the sore and —
