reputable and more reckless grit papers are declaring that cut nails which cost the trade in Canada $2.10 a keg may be pur- ehased in Pittsburg for 98 cents. Of course the statement is entirely erroneous ; the duty being but 75 cents per keg such disparity in prices “would at once lead to importations. Nails vary considerable in price, according to size, aud there is every reason to believe that the Canadian manu- factures sell at slight advance on cost. At axy rate nails are sold at a lower price than ever in Canada.

is announced from Ottawa that one of the stipulations which the Newfound- land delegates insist on should the union take place will be a fast steamer service between the nearest Canarian point aud the west shore of the island, there to con- nect with a railway now under construc- tion across the island. In this connection Sanford Fleming, the well-known engin- eer, says the Intercolonia! railway would be utilized as a connecting link in the great passenger and mail route between America and Europe. By this means the Atlantic from land ,to land could be crossed in three days.

—A decision as to the constitutionality of the United States income tax has been at length given by the U.S. Supreme court. By thie decision the income tax law as a whole is upheld, but by a divided court. Two important portions of the ldw, how- ever, have been decided to be unconstitu- ticna!, and they are so serious as to affect materially the revenue of the government. Under the decision incomes derived from rents are exempted from taxation, and all incomes derived from state and municipal bonds are similarly exempted. In other respects the income tax law stands as it was passed last August.

—The chairman of the Hartford Cotton

Mills Company in England has published @ notice that the establishment wil] run on short time forthwith. H says: “Whilst other nations afford more or Jess protection to their producers, we in England only roteect bur consumers, and as the best ae al machinery has for some time been started in al] parts of the world, it is not difficult to foresee that the ex- tinctiea of the agricultural and manufac- turing industries of England is not far distant unless present conditions as to monetary and commercial relations with @ther countries are revised. Parliament only can do this.”

—When the Boston people were sending money and supplies to Newfoundland, the president of one of the business chambers took occasion to denounce the people of Engiand and Canada for leaving their suf- fering fellow-countryimen to the tender mercies of Boston’s charitable folk. Long before that time large contributions bad been made both in England and Canada. Towlay a representative of the i.aperial government is in Newfoundland with a credit of $100,000 to relieve distress. The British and Canadian gifts were forwarded quietly, promptly and with no attempt to make the suffering colony uapleasantly conscious of the favor done her. The Bos- ton folk do not neglect the duty and privi- lege of giving alms. But it seems that they do not always conceal from the right band the proceedings of the left.

—Halifax Herald: The advocates of woman suffrage ia this Province will per-— haps read with some enthusiastic interest that Sir Oliver Mowat has assisted to pass through tbe Legislature of Ontario a bill to allew women to become barristers and practice law in the courts of that Province. Surely in a Province where the law recog- nizes women as able and fit to become learned in the law and to take an import- aut part in the administration of it, they might aiso be allowed the part in the making of it which ie afforded by the ex- ercise of the franchise. But the members of the Ontario Government do not think so, for on the very same evening of the

sage of the bill just referred to, Hon. Kr. Hardy declared that he had no faith in woman suffrage; which, being inter preted, simply means that he was afraid of what the ladies might do if they got the ballot; which, being further interpreted, means that he was afraic that a majority ef them might not vote the grit ticket. ;

—Proef. Robertson has written Dairy Superintendent Dillon to the effect that the Government, through the Department of Agriculture, is net in a position to in- cur additional expenditure through tie dairying service on P. E. Island, that no promise of rent or of management of the business can be made to the new factories, and thatif the factories which were in operation in 1894 are to be managed by the Dairy Commissioner in 1895 the rents must be reduced one-half. The work in the past has been largely educational, and considerable expense has been incurred on that account. Mr. Dillon has written the Dairy Commissioner, recommending that all factories be taken at a rent equal to five per cent. of the actual cost of the buildings and plant. He feels satisfied that with the increased patronage the fac- tories will receive, the management of the twenty-eight this season will not cost the Departmert any more than the cighteen did last year.

desire to create one j

moneys, and these questions remain unanswered: Last evening the hon. member for New London said that when

the people paid a tax they should know in what manner it is expended. He was juite right in making that statement. The Opposition, though small in number,

€

represent nearly half the voting popula- tion of the Province. and they feel that inasmuch as the Government has Jm- posed a tax on black an i white on the

living and on the dead they would be re creant to their duty if they did not de- mand in what manner this tax had _ been eppropriated. They asked In regard to the purchase of carpets for Goverament House, involving an expenditure of sev- eral hundred dollars, and the information was not forthcoming. Was the Leader afraid that the giving of the information would invelve some of his servile follow- ers? The Leader of the Government and

the Commissioner of Public Works were as silent as Lovs wife when she was turned into a pillar of salt? Why did

they refuse to answer this question? They hadalso been asked to show the amount expended in repairs to this build- ing, Again they were as silent as the grave. Debentures amounting to $27,000 were pledged for the building of a new steamer and for repairing this building. From the fact that $10,000 was not spent on this building he thought the Leader was open to the charge of obtaining the vote for the $185,000 debentures under false pretences. The Opposition also wanted to know the amount expended for kerosene oil to light Prince Street Ferry Wharf. This wharf used to be lighted by electric light and no serious accident ec-

curred. Butthe Government deemed it advisable to make a change and they had the wharf lighted by

kerosene oi!. The Opposition wanted to know the cost of this oil, and whether it was sold by imperial er wine gallon. They had every reason to believe that the oi! was purchased from the hon. member for West River, and that it was the wine gal- lon that was used. But the information in this case also was not forthcoming. If all was right and fair, why should they hesitate about answering? The UOpposi- tion have the public accounts, however, and with these they can condemn the Government in the eyes of the people. They claim that when they came in they found the publict works in a deplorable condition, and judging by their talk one would think they had been raised up to snatch the country from destruction. Moses as a deliverer could not come within measurable distance. They said the public works were starved by the late Govern- ment, and that when they came in they provided for them lavishly. They went to the country shouting that they would fix the roads and bridges. A glance at their re- cord will show how they kept this pro-

mise. They also declared that the late Government were extravagant, and if they were returned to power they

would be more economical] of the public money. How have they kept this promise? The yearly average expenditure from 1879 to 1890 was $278,959,01, while the yearly average from 1892 to 1894 in- elusive was $307,783,70. The excess in the average annual expenditure from 1892 to 1894 is thus shown to be $28,824.69 as compared with the annual average be- tween 1879 to 1890. To show that the policy in respect to expenditure pursued by the Government is similar to the policy puraued by the Liberals elswhere, he re- ferred to the expenditure during the past five years by the Provincial Govern- ment of Ontario, waere the Libera) Party has been in power for a number of years. In 1888 the expenditure of Ontario was $3,545,235, and in 1893 it was $3,907,000, or an excess of $361,765. In the Province of Quebec, the expenditure under the Con- servative Party in 1887 was $3,560,518, and in 1891, under Mercier, it was $5,987,- 737, an increase of $2,427,219. Nova Seotia from 1878 to 1882, was under Con- servative rule, the late Sir John Thompson beingamember of that Government. During that term they decreased the floating debt of the Province to the extent of $70,006. In 1882, the expenditure was $641,755, and in 1893 it was $990.711,an increase of $348.956. P.E.Island’s average yearly expenditure from 1879 to 1890, was $278,959.01, and the average yearly ex- penditure from 1892 to 1894, was $307,- 793.70, an increase of $28,824.79, It will be seen, therefore, that what is true of the present Government in respect to increasing the expenditure is equally true of every place where the Liberals hold power. In Nova Scotia the coal fields had to be leased to an American syndicate because of the extravagance of the Liberal Government in power there. They had te do this to keep themselves afloat. The same is true of our own Government. They have fastened a debt of $185,000 in debentures around the necks of the peo- ple. Last year the banks refused to honor their checks, and they had to go to some private individuals in their dire distress. Never in the history of a country has a government been so humiliated. Without an act of parliament they weat to those private individuals and begged for some $3,090 to meet their obligations before the Legislature met. It is no wonder that the Leader cries out, “Don’t say a word to in- jure the credit of the country.” But after spending the $185,000 and exhausting their credit at the banks, they had to go down on their marrow-bones and ask _ pri- vate individuals for money until they got their half-yearly subsidy frou Ottawa. All this was due to the gross extravagance of the Government. Now look at their

expenditure on roads, which they claimed they would fix up, as they had been neglected by their

predecessors in office. What do the records show? This year their estimate for that purpose is only $12,000, while the Conser- vatives spent on an average about $22,000 each year. The expenditure last year was only $20,000. They let a contract on the Montague Bridge to a man named Ross for $498. That sum is not paid yet, however, and not five cents have been expended on a roawl to the bridge. Last year the Leader of the Goveroment said in his budget speech that he was about to inaugurate a new policy in regard to estimates—that they would be real estimates, and the bridges to be buiit would be specified. This announcement was made with a flourish that was calculated to throw even Glad- stone in the shade. But the Leaderdid not long carry out the policy of naming in the estimates the bridges that were to be constructed, and this year net a single bridge is specified. The hon. member from New London now

comes in with a new-fangled idea respect-

iwo the

ing irou bridges, and in a year or a ade

Leader will probably be bringing in benture bill to defray the cost of construct- ing works of this character on the eve of an election. Mr. Shaw then p yinted out

Governments. He

bridges by the two showed that the average yearly expendi

1890 was $23,339.61.

[880 to ure from 1892

ture from The average yearly expendit | to 1894 was $19,298.59. Showing an average yearly expenditure from 1883 to 1890 in excess of that from 1892 to 1894 of $4,041.02. Now let us look at the mat- ter of wharves. The charged that the late Government neglected the wharves, and that by reason of this neglect the ex- penditure on them was greatly increased.

In this respect the hon. member from

Squaw Bay was especially wild. He cried out continually about — the wharf at Alexandria and McdAulay’s

wharf. The Government listened to the voice of the charmer and repaired Mc- Aulay’s wharf. We naturally looked for large receipts from this wharf after all that had been heard about it and the amount of money that had been expended on it. But not a cent of wharfage appears from it. Some $12,000 were spent on Alexandria wharf, but there are no re- ceipts from it either. He could show where a wharf had been built on the west side of the bridge at Mount Stewart, which

cost $1200. Besides this there was th sum of $126, which the Leader of the Government said was fur extras and the

Commissioner of Public Works said was not. However this may be, the structure cost over $1300 and there wasno word of

any receipts from it in the public ac- counts. Where has all this money gone? Only $6 in wharf tolls was collected for 1893. While the late Government spent on wharves an average of over $7,000, the present Government ouly spent a little over $5,000. The late Government ex- pended over $1,679 a year more on these

works than the present adm in- istration, and the money was ex- pended for the benefit of the

farmers and in the best interests of the country, The matter of ferries requires | minute enquiry. The late Government be- | gan work on the Cardigan docks, but be- | tore the contracts were completed they went out of power. The present Govern- ment finished the work, but as yet only a sail-boat plies on that ferry. The people of that section of the country are intelligent and law-abiding and pay their taxes as well as the people of any other part of the Pro- vince. Yet the present Government denied them the ferry they stood so much in need of. Mr. Shaw here submitted a statement showing the deficits on ferries. It is as fol- lows; Deficits under Conservative rule :—

iin cs seteignonnensee $ 7,265.87 BORE indanescnveceses jcanasaceeeneenaen 7,089.76 By dascancdseserinncnvensteetoces 2,142.12 Deficits under Grit ruie :— ieee $13,599.03 OE acct cddedpns Sanceinns stemiees 8,908.00 DEE cicsenhchuidecents « suscvebekscdigay 12,285.56 a cauintil 14,042.44 amounting in all to $48,745.03 during Grit rule. The present Commis-

sioner of Public Works had a_ new boiler put in the steamer Southport, and a pre- vious Commissioner (Hon. H. L. Macdon- ald) hed a similar work performed for the Elfin. This, of course, added to the ex- penses. But in 1893 there were very lit- tle repairs made, and yet there was a de- ficit of $12,285.56. It was most remark- able after these boats had been thoroughly repaired, that this amount should be ex- pended on the Southport. In 1893 the Commissioner of Public Works stat- ed that the Elfin and Southport were both in first-class order. Yet when the House met the following year they found that the expenditure on these boats amounted to $1704, and the revenue re ceived was only $4,755, or $1,000 ‘ese than was received from the same source the preceding year. But that was an election year, and it seems that a great many persons had season tickets free, Many persons from Charlottetown live on the Southport side during the summer months, and there were Fort Augustus and Belfast voters who had to be passed along. He had asked fora list of these season tickets, and the names of the per- sons to whom they had been fur- nished. But what was the result of that enquiry? For some mysterious rea- son the word “season” was omitted from the type-written copy of his notice, and the whole force of the question was there- fore destroyed. He proved that the word “season” had been omitted through no fault of his, but notwithstanding this the Commissioner of Public Works had not yet furnished the information asked for. If the ferry continued under the same management hedid not know where it wonld end.

When the House adjourned at six o’clock Mr Shaw was stil] speaking.

Wepyespay, April 18.

At the forenoon session Mr. Shaw re- sumed the debate on the budget and did not conclude his speech until the after- noon session was well advanced. The conclusion of our summary report of what he said will appear in the next issue of Tue Examiner. Mr. Bell was the next speaker, and his speech lasted well into the night session.

Then the motion that the House go into committee of supply was put and carried, Mr. McLaughlin taking the chair. Several items passed before adjournment.

Tuvurspay, April 11.

House met at 11.

A message from His Honor the Lieut- enant-Governor was read to the effect that when the House adjourns this evening it will stand adjourned until Tuesday next.

Mr. Bell presented a petition asking that a bill be passed establishing the right of married women to hold and own prop- erty free from liability for debts incurred by the husband.

Mr. Rogers (Alberton) asked the Com- missioner of Public Works: Ist, Whether it is the intention of the Government to procure the right of way aud to open a road through Gard’s farm, to lead from the Hain Hill River Road to Long Creek, Lot 5,as prayed for by petition. 2nd, Whether it is the intention of the Govern- ment to give @ grant in aid ofthe construe- tion of a wharf near McLennan’s Shore Mill River, Lot 5, as petitioned for by the people of Mill River and Bloomfield. 3rd, Whether the Government intend extend- ing the Johnson Road Hills River to Dock Road, Let 4, in compliance with a petition recently presented.

Hon. Mr. McLean said the matters would be investigated during recess, and if found in the public imterests the work would be proceeded with.

H. C. Macdonald asked the Commission- er of Public Works if a petition had been received from the inhabitants of Wood Islands, Lot 62, regarding the brushing and building up of the road leading over the Sand Bar to the Wood Island break- water; if so, is it the intention of the Gov- ernment to grant the prayer of the peti- tion; also, if a petition had been received from the inhabitants {of Pleasant Valley, Lot 62, praying that the road leading through Pleasant Vatiey to County Line Road be straightened; if so, what action does the Government intend to take in the matter.

Hon. Mr. McLean said the matter would

be investigated as soon as possible, with a view to seeing what was best to be done. Mr. James E. Macdonald asked the Commissioner of. Publie Works if it was the intention of the Government to have a

survey made of a line of road from Peake’s |

Road across Lot 53 to form a junction with St. Peter’s Road, during the ensuing summer, in compliance with the prayer of the petition of the inhabitants of St. Peter’s Roaa, Peake’s Road, Bangor, Ruskin and Dundas. He explained that the proposed new line of road would be a continuation of the Elm Road, and would shorten the distance for the Dundas péople going west to Peake’s Station or Charlottetown.

Hon Mr McLean sad there scemed to be some necessity for the opening of the road, and the Government would do what they thought was best in the matter.

Hon Mr Gordon directed attention to the fact that several questions asked by the Opposition early in the session had not yet been answered.

Hon Mr McLean presented the super- visors’ returns aad their estimates for the different counties. He also presented a re- turn showing the amount of contracts en- tered irto during the oear. The other re- turns asked about were being made out and would be tabled as s000 a: p yssible.

Hon. Mr. Peters submitted a boek show- ing the names of the persons who paid in- cume tax, and the amounts paid, which, he said, was on » account to leave the Clerk’s desk. He also submitted a state- ment showing the expense of Crown pro secutions in Magistrates Courts.

The House then resumed committee of supply.

Ou the item for the Department of Public Works, Messrs. A. J. Macdonald and Shaw attacked the Leader of the Government and Commissioner of Public Works for the manner in which that Department was conducted, charging gross extravagance.

At one o’clock’*the House took recess.
