On the one hand we have the Montreal Witness, Protestant Grit organ, declaring that the Government 1s “playing into the hands of the Roman Catholic hierarchy, while the Electeur, French Grit organ.
declares that the Government has “acved- |

—A New England newspaper speaks of the proposed union of “‘little Newfound- land” with Canada. But, as the St. John Sun points out, Newfoundland is not so little as this editor thinks. The island is more than two thirds as large as all the New England states, and exceeds in area Massachusetts, Connedticut, Rhode Island, New Hampshire and Vermont put togeth er. With Newfoundland goes Labrador, with an ares of 120,000 square miles. Newfoundland and Labrador together are equal in size to the six New England States, with New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey thrown in. It may appear at present that Labrador does not amount to much as a possession. As yet, however, very little is known about it, except that it has valuable fisheries. It seems certain that their are good timber Jands in the in- terior, and it is not improbable that Labra- dor has great mineral wealth. The time was when Alaska was hardly thought worth taking. But now itis one of the most valuable possessions of the repub- lic. Newfoundland may not at present be in funds. But she is not little and is not without great national wealth.

its
A meeting of the farmers of this vicinity was held on 2nd inst., in the Schoolhouse at Red Point, under the auspices of the Red Point Farm and Dairy Association, to discuss important matters of an agricul- tural nature. Cyrus Stewart, Esq., was appointed Chairman, and the undersigned Secretary.
The tirst called upon was T. S. Robert- sen, Esq., who after a few preliminary remarks, read a paper on the “ Renovation of the Soil.” Mr. Robertson, whose paper was beyond criticism, is a practical farmer and seemed to understand thoroughly the subject of which he treated. He con- veyed to the audience many valuable hints, on the management of the soil, and the treatment of certsuin fertilizers, so as to obtain the most beneficial results.
In a plain, straightforward manner, Mr. Ronaid McAulay recounted his personal experience in dairying, dwelling principally on the advantages of the co-operative system. Having finished his discourse, he satisfactorily answered all of the many questions proposed by those most inter- ested.
Mr. A. Mooney promptly responded toa call from the chairman, and having en- dorsed the sentiments of Mr. McAulay on dairying, spoke at some length on the silo, proving conclusively that the silo is an essential factor of successful dairying.
Mr. J. E. Robertson, in the course of a brilliant speech, touched en points which if put in practice, would contribute much to the success of the farming com- munity. He was foliowed by Mr. John McLellan and others. The sentiments all the speakers tended te the same that the farmers to better their condition, must give up the old, and apopt the new system, of dairying and mixed farming.
A hearty vote of thanks was tendered Messrs. McAulay and Mooney, both of whom are energetic members of the Gowan Brae Dairying Company, for their instruct- ive addresees.

this information. The present Government came in and rolled up the debt from $128.000 at the close of 1890 to $350,000, according to their own showing, without charging unpaid amounts as they do in their cooked up statements. During their short term of office, they have added $233,000 to the actual debt of the coun- try. He did think that this was a good showing for a Government that boast- ed they would not put on taxes. They said the day of taxation was far off, yet when they assumed power they put a burden on the people, and time will tell how this burden will be borne. Again, look at the amount of interest they pay. Although the late Government in one year paid over $9,000, their annual average was only $3,380, a very small sum. The late Gov- ernment had the interests of the people at heart. The country was opposed to taxes as levied by the Davies Government, and | the lateGovernment took the tax offas soon
not
as they Were in a position to do so. If they had a deficit, they believed it could be paid by
of the | Dominion Government in payment of the | claims of the Province. The preseat Gov- ernment should practice economy. The
people are far from being pleased with the manner in which they are managing af fairs, and do not take kindly to the system of taxation which they bave imposed. This burden has been forced upon the people during the past year and they find it a heavy one to bear. They feel too that this is Only the beginning of the end in that respect. A system of loans has been in- troduced under which the Leader of the Govern nent says they have received about $90,000. Mr. Macdonald then went on to criticise the Loan Act. He pointed out that the money realized by means of this act was money on call, and there was no knowing where it would stop. If a crisis should occur among the people how would the matter stand then. An in- stance of this can be found in Newfound- land, that place the grits used to refer to as the happy land. Arun was made on the institutions there and the Government
means the money received from
were no better off than the banks er the people. We like to see the Government able to borrow money at a low rate, but
there is a danger in their having a large sum on theirhandsin this way. It was amusing te see the credit the Government was taking for the correctness of their es- timates. But their estimate for public works has always been less than that pro- vided by the late Government, and in this way they kept close to the revenue. He showed that during the term of the late Government, the expenditure on pub- lic works had been increased by reason of damage by storm. He repelled the as- sertion that the late Government had ne glected the public works of the Province, and claimed that when they went out of power they were ina better state than ever before in the history of the country. The wharves were not the property of
the Provincial Government, and it was not their duty torepair them. Notwith- standing all their boasting about the
wharves they only collected in wharf- age during their whole term some $60 or $70. This means either one of two things: either that wharfage is not col- lected or the returns are not made. The Government had also boasted con- siderably about their purchase of $1000 worth of Paris Green. The Opposition opposed this purchase because they looked upon it as jobbery. It is now found that the money paid for this Paris Green never came back. Where did that money go? The actual deficit on that $1000 was $250. Another important matter was the Southport and Rocky Point
ferry. It is well known to all that traffic there has about doubled in the last few years. The boats have been put in first- class order, and a new one has been built, aud there are now _ three steamers in connection with this
little ferry. People in the country are astonished that $28,000 are expended on | this ferry,and this not for the wharves either. Besides the amount mentioned, there are $3,700 for repairs, and that meaos nearly $33,000 for this one service alone. Even taking the new boat out, the sum Spent is excessive. Notwithstanding the increased traffic and the additional ac- commodation provided, there was a de- | crease in the returns from this ferry. There is nearly $1,000 difference between the last two years and the previous one, and yet there js at least one-third more traffic now. A great deal had also been heard about the Registry Office. The legal gentlemen had access to that office all those years, and the papers on file there were the pro- perty of their cliente. They should have seen that they were all right. He charged that the responsibility for the manage- ment of that office belonged to the head, and not to the assistants, as stated by the hon. member from New London. He was glad that the present Registrar had put things to rights. He never heard of any treuble arising from unrecorded docu- ments. Perhaps many were hardly im- portant enoug) to need recording. He would suggest that this gentleman be appoint- ed manager of the Southport ferry, with a view to seeing if he conld not put that branch of the public servize on a sound footing also. The former Opposition used to complain that this building was not re- paired, in fact Mr. Yeo said that in a little while it would come down. The build- ing is still here, however, bat no great expenditure has been made on it by the Government since they came into
power, Much has also been said about the withdrawal from capital. In this connection he pointed
| out that the Upper House, where the Gov-
ernmeat had a majority, passed the Act
authorizing the withdrawal from cupital.
Notwithstanding that the late Government had drawn from capital, they left more to the credit of the Province at Ottawa than } they found there when they came !n, be-
sides leaving the Province with only a small debt. When the Sullivan Govern
ment said they would get one-eighth of a
million from the Dominion the Opposition
laughed at them. But they got this sum,
notwithstanding the jeers of the Op
position. Ifthe present Government had
fullowed the example of the late adminis- tration in this regard instead of putting on taxes, it would have been better for the Peovince. The Canadian taxes are largely on the luxuries of life, and those who do not indulge in them need not pay for the privilege ; but local taxation is much like the eld-time highwayman—it is a case of stand and deliver—it is exacted whether the people like itor not. Referring to the Stock Farm, he said he did not think the Government bad performed their duty in regard to it. Since they came into power it has gone behind at the rate of $1000 a year. The Leader’s statement concerning our solid cash deposit at Ottawa was very com- forting. When they were in Opposition nothing was heard of this sum. It was there, however, when the present Govern- ment came in, and he hoped it would be there when they went out. But it is of no use there if they have a series of loans
It is like having a capital in one bank and an_ overdrawn account at another. Of course, if there is a sav- ing on interest this is all right, bat the capital is no better. Under these circum-
stances their continual harping about drawing from capital looks childish.
During last year there was received in taxes the sum of $44,000. A large sum was also paid into the Registry Ofiice and the Prothonotary’s Office under the provi- sions of the Act passed last session. Be- sides this, an additional tax was put on in the shape of fees charged students en- tering Prince of Wales College. Add all these together and it will be seen that the taxes foot up the large sum of $50,000 In conclusion, Mr. Macdonald expressed the hope that the Government would con- duct affairs economically, and that some- thing would be done for the people in the relieving them from the barden of which they were now
way ol taxation ladoring.
Mr. Blanchard said that in pass a few remarks on the subject before the House, he would say at the out- set that it was not intention insti-
under
rising lo Dow
his to
tute a comparative statement of the different items of expenditure under the respective parties. He just wished to
call attention to the manner in which the present Government managed the busi- ness of the Province since they attained tu power. As all are aware, the present Government took the reins of power about the 15th April, 1891, and they immediate- ly proceeded to appoint a committee to in- vestigate and report on the finances of the Province. They brought in their report which was dated the 24th day of April, 1891. According to this report the liabil- ites of the Province that date amounted to $171,000 in round numbers. In this ameunt they included the un- earned portion of the half yearly subsidy,
on
viz: from the 24th April to the 30th
June, an amount of $33,000, which, in his opinion, was very. unfair. He was, however, prepared to admit
this statement, no matter how unfair it might be. Im the session of 1891 the Lead- er of the Government introduced a deben- ture act. This Act authorized the Gov- ernment to issue debentures to the amount of $185,000, or, in other words, $14,006 over and above the indebtednes- of the late Government. So it will be seen that the Government started with a clean sheet. Now let us see how the matter stands atthe presnt time. The receipts for 1891 were $274,047.21, and the expend- iture $304,486.41. The deficit was, there- fore, $30,439.20. Debentures were issued in that year amounting to $6,500. The balance against the Province was $158,- 415.19. Now it will be noted that the Leader of the Government, in the course of his budget speech, endeavored to fasten the whole responsibility of the present debt on the late Government, inasmuch as they had failed in their duty in years gone by. Now he claimed that tne Leader of the Government had the experience of the past ten years staring him in the face and that he should have governed himself accordingly. He also claimed that the Leader is directly responsible for the debts incurred since he has had charge of this Government. Now let us come to the year 1892. The receipts were $245,- 652.28, and the expenditure $283,303.57. The deficit was $37,652.28. Debentures were issued in that year for $151,900.00. The balance against the Province was $48,074.93. In 1893 the receipts were $217,437.03, and the expenditure $337,- 415.36, leaving the enormous deficit of $119,942.31, and a balance against the Province of $169,603.58. In 1894 the receipts were $282.467.03, and the expen- diture $302,632.19, leaving a deficit of $20,164.20, and in this year they collected taxes to the large amount of $44,445.91. He found also that $26,600.00 of deben- tures were issued, and also provincial loans to the amount ot $40,26550. The balance against the Province as shown by the Provincial Auditor’s report was $125,-
048.50. But if we added the de- bentures and the loan we have a balance of $191,914.00, and a total
deficit for the past 4 years of $208, 198.02. Now he was going to refer to the matter of education. The Leader of the Government stated that he would do no cheese-paring in regard to this important matter. But he (Mr. Peters), must have forgotten his cheese-paring policy of last year when he reduced the maximum of the teacher’s supplement from $150.00 to $25. And who are the teachers whose supple- ments were so reduced? Were they the drones in the profession? No, not at all, They were the brightest and ablest teach ers in the professien whose services were valued by the ratepayers and as a matter of course voted large supplements in order to retain them. Here however the Leader of the Government stepped in and said in effect, no we shall not pay larger supple- ments no matter how much your services are valued. So much for the Leader’s cheese-paring policy in respect to education. Now a few words about the registry office. The Premier, in 1892, in the course of a speech or the floor of this House, stated that this department of the public service had been put on a sound basis. Yet every year since then the matter has been dragged up,and the House is told that they found that office in a bad state. Speaking of the ferries, he pointed out the great increase in the cost of operating the Southport and Rocky Foint ferries. He subinitted a statement which showed that in 1891 the expenditure on this ferry was $18,944.03, and the re- ceipts $5,435, leaving a deficit on the year’s transaction of $13,509.03. In 1892 the expenditure was $14,705.55, and the receipts $5,797.50. The deficit for that year was, therefore, $8,908.05. In 1893 the expenditure amounted to $17,041, whilst the receipts only totaled $4,755.54, causing a deficit amounting to $12,285.56,
$14,094.44. Thus during the four years
In 1894 the expenditure was $19,196.49, and the revenue $5,154.05. The deficit
under consideration —from 1891 to 1894— the deficits on this ferry reached the large sum of $48,745.03. He (Mr. Blanchard was not opposed to giving the fullest mea- sure of accommodation to the people liv-
ing south of the Hillsborough. But he thought it was unfair that the whole country should be taxed to run this ferry, while im-
proved accommodation was denied other sections of the Province. Last year it took one half the amount paid in land tax to pay the deficit on this ferry alone. The other half went to pay the interest. He did not think the farmers, the backbone of the country, would long submit to this. Although over $44,000 were raised in tax- ation last year, there was still a deficit. The financial condition of the Province was certainly most deplorable. In regard to the administration. of justice, he claimed that the late Government had
made the greatest saving in tkat direc- tion and their work was the best. He de- fied the Government to show where> they
had placed a single cent to the credit of the Province at Ottawa, whereas the Sul- livan Government obtained $20,000 a year for all time to come. He had asked for certain information respecting Scott Act was not complied
the House went what could
fines, but his request with. However, when into committee, he would see be done in the matter.
Mr. Shaw followed and was speaking at six o'clock, when the Honse adjourned until 10 a. m. on Wednesday.

Hon. Mr. Farqhharson presented a_ bill entitled “An Act to Amend the’ Medical Act, 1892,” which was re ferred to the Private Bills Committee.
Mr. Shaw introduced a bill to incorpor- ate the “Watchman Publishing Con- pany,” which was read a first time.
Mr. Bell presented a petition asking for an amendment to the Jaw respecting the conveyance of real estate by married women, which was received and read.
Mr. McKinnon asked the Commissioner of Public Works if a petition had been re- ceived by the Government requiring the
erection of a steel] bridge at Montague Bridge, and if so, whether the Govern- ment intend granting the prayer of the
petitioners; also if a petition had been re- ceived from the inhabitants of Little Sands for an extension of the wharf there, and if so, what the Government will do in regard thereto.
Hon. Mr. Peters said the petitions had ven received and were under considera-
It was useless, however, to talk of ling steel bridges this year.
Mr. John A. Mcitonald asked the Com- missioner of Public Works if the Govern- ment had received a petition from certain inhabitants of Darnley, Lot 18, praying for the opening of a new road from William Woodside’s forge te the shore of Baltic Creek; and further if it was the intention of the Government to open said road this summer.
Hon. Mr. Peters said the queetion would be answered this evening.
Mr. Shaw then resumed the debate on the motion to go into committee of supply.
