'l‘he speaker took the chair at ll a. in.

Hot: N. McLeod asked the l‘rovincial Secretary to lay on the table the state- ment of the amount overdrawn fruit the banks

The Cnmiiiiasiutier of Public Work laid on the table co es of the tenders re- lating to the parrot setiit-e.~i lictwvell Charlottetown and Murray Harbor and New Loud-vii and Riistico. _ . ' Mr. Shaw eoilml if the Ciinllllllilnller of Public works had refused to pay any road orders.

It was replied that some had been re- fund in me Coniinissione_r’a absence.‘

House went into coiniiiittee to c-uisider the expediency of introducing the deben- ture bill.

Hon. Mr. Peters repudiated the charge that the object. was to raise money for current expenses and not to pay the debt. The question was whether they were not raiaiiig too little money. The provinci l building needed repairs which would cost RS000. He blamed the hon. member from Siiniuierside of decrying the country's credit (lreat questions were under fair cinsideration, and a change in public opinion was taking place through- out the Dominion which tended to u change of government, the almost ini- niediate result of which would be a sub- sidy sufliciently large toplace this province beyond a thought of taxation.

Afr. Rogers said that the accusations made against him -were false. The Leader could not show anv sinking fund, and consequently could not borrow money at advantage.

Mr. Bell thought it desirable to de- liberate in a l itimate channel. The two questions to solved, he said, were whether the debt was as is asserted, and, if so, what were the best means to lessen it? He was astonished that the Govern- in nt and Opposition could difler to the amount of 85000 in a matter of calcula- tion. The late government had borrowed what they wanted without asking the consentof the Legislature, and at this time they complained of the government b-arr wing a few thousands over their liabilities. He considered that the adop- tion of the debenture policy would save 84625 of yearly interest, and therefore he su rted it.

r. Shaw showed that the contract for heating the government house was for 816,079, and not 82,500, as the govern- ment asserted.

Speaker took the chair at 3.45.

Hr. Arsenault asked if the overnment intend to introduce a liquor iceuse law for the city and if not to give the r sson

The Leader answered that no petition had been received. —

House went into couimittee on the res- olution to consider the expediency of xi Dcbenture bill. _

Mr. Fsrquhsrson asked if the late gov- Oflllgyfllt in wet what po ' wo vs 11 ado to of the debt. P my

Mr. Shaw claimed the government should collect the debts due from the Dominion Government. The opposition are not supposed to say what they would have done

Hr. H. C. McDonald said the majority oi the 9-overunment would not approve of a withdrawpl from capital, and since the Opposition disa prove of issuing deben- tures what won d have been their policy He spoke concerning a Hillsborough bridge and read an article about a bridge built under similar natural conditions.

Hon. N. McLeod did not know that the Government should undertake to build a bridge. Anyway the surveys and estimates should be considered. ‘

Hon. Mr. Peters said the Government had made efiort and secured estimates, the lowest of which was 8790.1!” and the highest flX),0(I). At such expense he would not be justified in supporting the scheme. He explained that the coat of survey was lea than 8111).

On motion the speaker took the chair and the resolution was reported agreed to. Hon. Mr: Peters introduced an Act to authorize the raising of money by the

G Government, and moved that this Bill be

read a second time to-murrow.

()n motion the house went into com- mittee on supply, Mr. J. E. McDonald in the chair.

Resolutions providing fcr the repairing of the Hospital for the Insane, Prince of Wales college, rent for the Lieutenant Governor's former residence, ctc., were moved by Hon. Mr. Peters.

On motion the speaker took the chair and the resolutions were reported agreed bu.

On motion of Mr. Peters the House went into committee with Mr. J. E. Mc- Donald 'n& chair to consider" the act authorising the government to raise

money.

Mr. Gordon thought the debentures could he-old freely and thus afl'ord an 0 ponunity of going into debt too easily.

e thought it would result in injury to the province

_Mr. Richards asked what Mr. Gordon Iotlld rt) .

Mr. eters mid that the amount owed the banks was over $140,000. Besides that there were checks amounting to nearly 816.!!!) due on education account.

Hon. Mr. McLeod said the overdraft at the banks amounud to only 853.000. The interest paid by the late government was on th- over draft for the time being. There will l)O a large interest due yearly on the debentures.

House adjourned till 8 o'clock Thurs- day. f svnrtuto szssloit.

The s ker took the chair at 8.45.

The ouse went into committee to con- sider the debenture bill.

Mr. Rogers protested against the issu- ing of debentures. He believed the country did not generally wish for such a measure. The government know well he contended, that in five years the sinking fund would be called on, another govern- mentniight be in power. V There is sure- ly ability enough in the present gowgrn. merit. to carry on the business of the country with assets in advance of the

ought to have been exercised long ago to raise money equal to the expenditure. . the country did not ask for. this 'blll neither did it for :i draw on capital. The revenue has fallen short of es ‘entliture and the only way out of ‘l-l|O di culty is that about to be iursued.

Mr, Rogers laid the blame of the capi- tal having‘ been drawn oil the Legislative L.‘ouncil who posed the bill aiithorizing It. {he majority of whom were liberals. There is not it province with such a small debt.

lion. D. l-‘arquharsoii said that the statement of the late government showed the amount of debt until Dec. 31st, l890 tube over $128_0tl0. which must iiicrcaae owing to running expenditure. The amounts drawn from Ottawa had been swallowed up and the debt still remains l.

The late i{0Ve|‘ll|Il8l'|l had deceived the people. The year 1888 the interest amounted to more than 89000.

hll‘. Bentley said this’ the late govern- ment had succeeded in obtaining it re- fund. He denied the debt to have been $l'.':Z,000. The balance against the c lony shown by the crown statements was only 8120.000. By the; terms of Confederation this Province was entitled to a certain ainoulit yearly. lie asserted the debt was $119,000. He asked how it came about that when the esiiniates showed $172,000 of debt on April 24th, the Leader asserted the debt to have been on let .luly but $144,000.

Mr. Bell roseto show that the late gov- ernment had accepted 320,000 in lieu of a claim of 867.000 at Ottawa, and said It would have been profitable to pay such delegate to remain home.

Mr. Underhay thought the previous speaker argued against the measure and claimed that proof was given that it would be neither safe nor wise to pass the bill.

Dr. Jeudiiis preferred the debentures issued at 4 per. cent to payment of bank interest but showed the nece sity of re- ducing the expenditure. He said that to issue debentures every year would be vicious and favoured having less poiitics and more business in the House. He consider d that the stock farm would be serviceable as an experimental farm.

Mr. Cumiuiskey said th t the deben- ture bill which was a necessity would ef- feet a savin in interest of $3,700.

Mr. N. D cLerd said it would be better to pay interest on $53,000 than on 8185,- 0(1)

Mr. Robertson said if the opposition could show a better way to decrease the debt he would vote against the bill.

On motion of the Hon Mr. Pet» rs the speaker took the chair and the bill was re rted agreed to without amendment.

r. Peters moved that the bill be read a third time to-niorrow.

Mr, Chappelle’s Reply to Mr. Lloyd.

Sin :—I thank Rev. Frederick E. J . Lloyd for making it unnecessary to furth- er delay my letter to the press. T- is public will readily see that I have no wish to “harm" him, that I have even suffered for his sin and hesitated making the exposure.

After the issue of his lanipoon “ So- ciety as it is in Charlottetown," I as soon asl became aware of the fact that the

ple were offended called upon Mr. fiiiyd and threatened him "with exposure if he did not acknowledge its paternity. He consented to do so and assured me that he would act as “a clergyman a Christian and a man” but I re-ret to say that his course was quite the opposite. During my absence from home last month Mr. Lloyd decided “ to spend the month of J uue of the Island.” On my return I found that no further explanation had been made. I then obtained his address and wrote him at Bienville, P. Q., saying that I would delay the issue of my letter until the 4th July. Afterwards I further postponed its publication until 7th July, and subsequently finding that he had re- turned to the Island I wrote him delaying action until to-day 9th July, and urged him to act as a man and give me his promised acknowledgement. I cannot therefore be charged with haste. Mr. Lloyd says that cowardice is not one of his vices. yet in the 8th paragraph he states tbs’ “ as a clergyman, is Chris- tian, and a man" it is the only statement he shall evermake on “ this subject” 3 ! 2 This is truly refresh n , yet I believe the public are very muc intere-ted on “ this subject."

As to Mr. Lloyd’s pecuniary matters I may say that I am unaware who the cor- res ndent of the St. John Progress is. how at last, Mr. Lloyd “ knows”; something about the lampoon, and insinu- ates that four residents are known to him. Let him tell all he “knows” after denying for months that he knew anything! 2 !

He must admit that he was the origi- nator of the work, and even if he did re ceive aid from any person or persons it does not in the least mitigate his oflbnce, but rather places him in a worse position. His ignorance of the sales, etc., is mere bunkum—his many enquiries at the store showed his interest. If the work was even a financial suc- cess he would speedily be on hand to re- ceive his “ profits,” but as a deficit is the result he cares nothing about it. He did know the nuuiber of copies printed, and assumed full management of proof read- ing and supplying copy. Dare he deny it . I happily have letters in my posses- sion proving every ststement, which I can publish if asked for. I would feel obliged to Mr. Lloyd if he would print my recent lo ters to him. They are fully explanatory, if not com- pliinentary. I now append the letter prepared for publication :—- SIn:—A_s my name has been unwarrant- ably used in connection with the author- ship of “ Society as it is in Charlotte- town,” and as its real author, Mr. Lloyd, has beeiistrivivg to wriggle out of the re- sponsibility-_ -even oiug so far as to deny any connection wit it-I am forced, in self defence, to make the following facts kiiown:—— ; Rev. Frederic Lloyd was alone the pro jector of the pamphlet and solely respon- sible for its appearance. If necessary I can produce written and oral testimony and give a full statement. On account of Mr. Lloyd's domestic afliction at the time and his positive as- surance that he would see those when. he had aggrieved, I refrained from making any ex re. At his urgent request I assumed the finencial obligation (simply acting as pub- lisher for him as an author) being assured by him that nothinir of an improper na- ture would be written, which statement I believed. He further said that his sole object in issui the work was to malts a little money. he “ copy” wgg nut, 50 me sealed and returned to him in the same manner, so tbat_ I was not enabled V’ P9111“ his manuscript even if I wished I :hp£iu shclergyplien he .ln.dI‘“f‘. ¥°80wodbe r or one moment 53,.

Siit:—- We must congratuliite you on the esteem in which Triitfluaiiuiait is held by its readers in general for its advocacy of all matters for the welfare and pros-

erity of society in town and country.

\'e were highly pleased in reading your leader of the 26th June last on the Spoils System. How t tie, as you say. “ 000 would sup iove from the present rush to secure small oflices that the supporters of party did not labor for the best interests of the Province. We pity the members of Government because of the 1000 horse power pressure that they have to suffer from otlicc seekers. Why cannot some agreement be now come to between both parties and establish a reciprocal feeling whereby an officer if found to give gener- alsatisfuctinn and not to take an active part in politics that man shoull undoubt- edly be retained. In this enlightened agejof the 19th century, party spirit ap- pears to reign predouii- ant and flings to the four winds every principle of equity and justice. Custom never made wrong right. There are some ollices which we believe ought always be beyond the rise and fall of political parties, aiid_sbove all the rest are the oflices of the Hospital for the Insane. Where will you find oflicers both male and female who fulfil their arduous and responsible duties better than the highly esteemed Mr. McPhail, Mr. McDonald and his good lady. They are loving and beloved by all parties, es- pecially by the poor aflicted and ailing humanity under their kind treatment. have had occasion with heartfelt sorrow to visit the hospital seve al times and at- tended incetings on Sunday. When the hour of meeting arrived Mr. McPhail stepped up ‘u the wards and led down a larg- number of the afflicted. They took their seats quietly and orderly,and remain- ed so during all the time of the meeting. Mr. McPhiiil 0 ned the meeting by singing three eautiful and suitable hymns, and Mr. McDonald joined with the organ. Mr. McPhail read the Scrip- tures and offered prayer and others follow- cd. Many of the afflicted joined in the sing- ing aud seemed much affected. No gen-

under more orderly and pesceable subjec- tion than the Insane Ho-‘pital people. We have the assurance that the Hospital is kept perfectly in order in every depart-

of the Grand Jury. To conclude, I believe when those who have the care of these poor afllicted ones stand before their Judge they will rejoice to hear the soul- cheeriug words : I was a trsuger and ye took me in; I was thirsty and ye gave me drink; I was sick and in prison and ye

visited me. As much as ye did it to one of the least of these, my brethren, ye did it unto me. a Lot 34. J vsricz. H
