Reports from the various constituencies are most
favorable to the Government. It is confidently antici- pated the Government will be sustained by an increased majority, variously, stated at 8 or 10. Premier Arsenault, in addition to being personally the most popular Premier since Confederation, 'has made good as an administrator and the feeling is steadily growing that it would be a mistake to transfer the reins of government to another at the present time. The Governmentfs record is mag- nificent and the policy outlined in the Premier’s admir- able address to the electors indicates that a continuance of the progressive policy may be looked for.

The popularity of a man in his own home town is a
sure indication that he is A1 at Lloyds. Premier Arsen- aulthas stood that test with remarkable success. In his home poll in the Third District of Prince he has increas- ed his majority at each election, and at the two adjoin- ing polls he has had the same pleasant experience. in Summerside, where he has lived and practiced for a number of years, he has gained a wide measure of pop- ularity, and in Charlottetown, since assuming the Pre- miership and coming to reside here, he has steadily gain- ed the regard and esteem of the citizens in a very marked degree. Mr. Arsenault’s sincerity, industry and pleas- ingpersonality have undoubtedly made things 'run smoothly and successfully since his advent to the,Pre-
Opposition at the close of last ‘session of the Legislature -a unique experience for any Premier in this province
House. , “He profits most who serves best.”

The Patriot twice this week repeats its wild
statements regarding theprovincial debt. -The provin- cial revenues and expenditures are given from 2nd De- cember, 1911, to 31st December, 1918, then by deducting the total of receipts, as made up, from the total expen- diture within these dates an excess of expenditures over *receipts of $111,861.69 is shown and naively pronounced
'this assumption all kinds of fantastic calculations are framed up. Even the figures quoted are not all correct, but lest that pass. But the Patriot deliberately with- holds the important fact that included in these expendi- tures are the payments into the Sinking Funds,'which are yearly made to reduce the Debenture Debt. It may beasked, why is it done that way? The answer is the statutes-authorizing the several issues of debentures re- quire that certain payments shall be made annually for that purpose. To do otherwise, as had been done for years under the late government, would be a breach of law and of faith with the bond-holders. From December 2nd, 1911, to 31st December, 1918, the debenture debt has been reduced $124,634.96 by amounts thus placed in the, Sinking Funds by the present Government, which more than offsets the Patriot’s bogus increase of debts of $111,861.69.
We will give the Bankers’ statements of our finances
,Von December 2, 1911, when the change of government took place, and also on the 31st of' December, 1918. ~These figures are made up alike in both cases and show up our finances in a plain reliable manner. We challenge disproval of them by any responsible banker or account- ant. The indebtedness was placed as follows in each case:
Amounts due Dec. 2, 1911. Dec. 2, 1919. ,To Bank . . . . . . . . . . _ . . . 175,430.27 $ 291,935.51 On Debentures _ 726,622.18 601.-987.22 Onf-"Dem: Loans . . . . . . . ._ _ 85,533.56 91,340.51

_Revenues, etc., due . . . ._.Si 64,352.84 55 55,446.30
The Bankers did not, in either case, deduct the rev-
enues due, as no one could tell what they were-exactly worth. But besides the, debts given on December 2nd, 1911, there remained the Lowe claim and other undis- closed amounts of over $8,000.
The public by this statement has a plain exhibit of
our finances, and further reference to the debt by us should be unnecessary.

We do no_t_,im'agine for a moment t'hat the intelligent
electors of this province take any stock in the Patriot’s garbling and muddling of figures, nor do we imagine that -any intelligent reader of the Patriot will accept its ver- 'sion of the Public Accounts as against the statement issu- 'ed by reputable bankers over their own name. Yet the Patriot, like the brook, babbles cheerfully on, mixing and manipulating figures, abusing the Arsenault govern - ment, vilifying and maligning everything the Govern - ment has had to do with. Now` if the Patriot wants to be fair and manly, if it wants to lead its readers instead of misleading them, why not ask some reputable banker
