it will Le remembered, too, that the Provincial Building has not been repaire? according to promise, and that every ac- count of last vear, the payment of which could be postponed was carried over into this year, while receipts for money paid into the Treasury in thig year were dated back to December last in order that the sums so paid might go to swell the re- eeipts of last year.
Bearing these facts in mind, and also the discrepancy between the bank return aad the auditor's statement, let us now {ook into the account of the past year. The expenditure of the year was, accord: ing to the auditer’s report, and less the accounts held over asd unpaid, $319,- 177.20. This is, it will be at once observ—
ed, a larger yearly expenditure than that
of the Liberal-Conservatives. We quote from the record, beginning at the year £880, by which time the debts be-
queathed by the Davies Administration as a legacy to future years had been pretty well reduced :

NOTES AND COMMENTS.
—The Patriot said last year: “The Provincial debt should not be allowed to increase one dollar more.” What will the Patriot say now ?
—We notice among the receipts of last year, Prince of Wales College fees, $1,156. Were not those fees to go to a fund fur the erection of a uew College building ?
—The Peters party exclaimed against the extravagance of the McLeod administra. tion in expending $395,000,000 ; but they will maintain that an expenditure of $310,- 000 slows careful (grit) economy !
—If $33,000 was the defvit jp a year when nothing in particular was done, what will the deficit be after cold storage ware- rooms and a new College and a new wing to the Asylum forthe Insane have been erected ?
~—Can the Pat-iot, which said last year that the present debt “should not be al- lowed to increase gng dollar more” sup- port the Premier in increasing liabilities amounting, ata moderate estimate tog bundred thousand dollars ?
—Montreal Gazette : When Mr. Laurier looked ai the division lists on the Remed- ia! Bill, and saw the names of Mr. Clarke Wallace and Mr. Dalton McCarthy on the same side as his own, he dil not say, “thank God, there are no Orangemen” among us, the Liberals. The time for that sayiag to work is gone.
—Montreal Gazettee: It seems to be accepted by the Liberal press that ao sup- plies will be voted at the present eession of Parliament. Ttat wil] mean the calling of another session, at the gost of half a million dollars, with afew months, The estimares submitted to Parliament by the Government are neither excessive nor be- youd the limits of the revenue. If they are not al!owed to pass, it wil] Le because the Opposition are obstructive. The ex- pense and inconvenience will be charge~
able to the Liberals, and te the Liberals alone. oe —_— —— KILLED BY LIGHTNING.
The Terrible Death of two Painters on a Church Spire.
Kansas City, Mo, March 25.—A special to the Times from Guthrie, O. T., s.vs; News of a most remarkable occur- rence has beey regeiyed here from Beaver County. At the little post office town of Grand, the Baptist congregation is build
ing a handsome church, surmounted by a spire 75 feet high. J.Ford and Harry Somers, painters, were employed to oi! and paint the — spire, Satur- day while they were giving the
tinishing touches to the top of the spire a thuoder storm came up accompan.ed by fierce flashes of lightning. Afteraterrific clap of thunder a blinding flash of lightn- ing strack che «pire, knocking away the painters’ scaffulding, eplitting the spire, and Jeaying Somers and Ford on the roof dead,
The clothing of the two men was ignited by the flash, and for ten minutes the bod- ies were seen burn.ng and smoking jn mid- air. Rain finally extinguished the flames, aod three hours later the remains of the

It will be observed that after extracting nearly $50,000 from the people by taxs- tion aad carrying over many outstandiag accounts, and adding money paid this year to the receipts of last year, there is a deficit of $32,862 80

err NENATOR,FERGLSON’s ST. PATRICK'S SPEECH,
Tie Ottawa psprrs contain very com- plimentary references to the address de- livered in that city on St. Patrick’s night ty Hon. Senator Ferguson. We have «pace to-day only for the remarka of the Cit'zen, which are as follows :—
“The oratorical event of the evening by Senator Fergu-ou, was introdyced in a very neat address by Mr. John P. Dunne, president of the Society. The honorable geptleman, at the outset, expressed bis appreciation of the honor conferred on him in being asked to address @ gather ing assembled for the purpose of com- memorating the memory of [reland’s pat- ron saint. The honor was all the greater, he said, ingsmyclh as he was not an Irish mao by birth or descent. Their courtesy was not a surprise to him, however, for iL was not the first time that he had received kindness from his Irish fellow citizens. He believed he was the only non-Irishman in his own province who had ever been glected an honorary member of the Benevolent Trish Society of Charlottetown. Senator Ferguson spoke of the prominent part taken by Irishmen in the administra~ tiou of public affairs in his province, and of the pleasing incidents in atrip he took through Ireland some years ag». He re. cited several stanzas of poetry descrivtive of the beauty of the Emerald Isle, and of the greatness of its people, and, in con & sign, urged al] people in this country te live farmenioysly together.”
CIVIC REFORM,
Sim,—In my last le‘ter I urged the ne cessity for reform in representation in the City Council, and especiaily as to the vot- ing system. Atthe last election a very large number of voters could not poll their votes on account of the crush, and the ignyense pumber who had to crowd in, in the short syace of #80 minutes, the time allotted for taking the poll. Over three hundred voters are unrecorded in ward five aloue. A-second polling place must be provided, and this change wi:] require legislative eanction to place the election outside the region of Jegal doubt. By dividing the ward into two wards, with two Councillors for each, it would remedy the grievance, and make a Coynejl of nine, the best number for business pur- poses. It seems ridiculons that one-third the city in population, and one-half the area, should constitute one wird. The pre- payment of all taxes as part of the voter’s qnalification should be abol shed, particu- larly as against real estate voters. <A halger of real estate, owing say $100 taxes, and whose stake and interest must be, consequently, very large, has no voice in the selection of his represent: atives, except under the gravest inconvenience, while his property and business interests in the community are placed under the jurisdiction of men elect- ed on two dellar poll tax receips, many of them purchased by the cantlidate, and the very purchaser of which is the . strongest evidence of the unfi:ness of the voter to vote or the candidate tu rule. Let man- hood suffrage prevail all a: ound,if possible, but if not, by all means remove this un- just exclusion from the holders of real es- state, The city should a'so be given absolute coutro] oyer every employe and over a’! Official-, including the fixing and regulating of salaries. The law as at present prescribes that such shall ho d no other office and that certain salaries shall be “not lees than” certain specified amounte, These useless re-tric- tions practically paralyze the hards of the counc)) m any readjustment of the civie official scale, no maiter how advisable or how important an improyement may be demanded.
The immediate requirement of a sinking fund to liqnidate the entire water debt in the short period of less than twenty years is @ most unfair im) osition., I am a strong
admirer of the . sinking fund idea, but I protest against its unreasonable applicatien. If
the act were amended compelling, say, a *p.cified sum of three thousand doilars to be set aside year'y for the redemption of the water debt, it would only extend the period of parment about fifteen years longer, within which time it would be amply sufficient to require the citizens to pay off so Jarge an amount.
There seems to be decided unanimity of Opinion as to the necessity for those changes, the very fairness of which com- mend them to-all, and no more opportune time for making these amendments to our incorporation acts than the present when all classes are agreed upon the necessity for so doing.

PARLIAMENT OF GANADA
A Bill Concerning the Civil Ser- vice.
Orrawa, March 28.
In the House of Commons the whole of yesterday afternoon’a session and the greater part of the evening session was taken up in the discussion of the Cattle Exclusion Bill new before the Imperial Parliament.
In the Senate Premier Bowell introduc- ed a bill to amend the Civil Service Act paseed last session. He said that the amendment was required in order to re move an injustice worked to third class clerks who have been in the service since 1882. In last year’s act, as it ocw stands, third class clerks, packers and sorters, ap- pointed prior to the passage of the act, are no longer members of the service; the ap pointment of athird clerk to a second class clerkship under the act is not a pro- ndtion but a new appointment, and a qualifying examination must be passed even in case of a clerk who bas been in service continuously since 1882, and has passed his promotion examinat.on. Another effect is that third class clerks,over the age of thirty-five years, can never be promoted. It was not the intention of Par- liament in framing the act of last session to work any such injustice, and the pre- sent act is introduced to reyaedy the misiake, ee
Senator Boulton gives notice that he will move tha: it will result in a benefit to the material and commercial interests of Canada, if the country adopt the offer indicated by Mr. Chamberlain, Colonial Secretary, for an Imperial customs union based @n a free trade zollverein.
