A minority report was presented by the De- mocratic members of the committee. It strongly attacks the majority report for re- fusal to suthiciently reduce the burden of
taxation. McKenna (Republican member of the committee) presented a report agaist the sugar schedule of the bill.

} are so well known to the public interested in | herses that it is deemed necessary to say but
little concerning them. *““ BARRISTER,” which was foaled in 1878, was extibited at many of the leading Shows
this side has com- Nova Scotia and
without a ribbon. Heon peted in New Brunswick,
| State of Maine, and was always placed first.
At our Provincial Exhibitions he has never been beaten, excepting by ‘* Lucky Lad.” His stock is more favorably known in the Maritime Provinces and State of Maine, both as good workers and prize winners than any other horse of the draught breed.
“ ay 8 KY LAD” was foaled in 1884, and was a short leet horseiat the great Glasgow Susing Stallion Show, in March, 1887. He entered the ring with no less than 72 of tle best 3-year-old horses of Scotland, and was one of twelve left in the cirele from which the winner was selected. He is a very stylish, active horse, and as near fau'tless in confor-
mation as any big horse to be found. He has been shown twice at our Provincial Exhibi- tion and was placed first each time. His progeny took first prize at Charlottetown as foal at foot, at Exhibition, October, 1888, and first prize as yearling and second prize as weanling at Exhibition held in October last.
These horses have never had to leave their stables in Charlottetown to make a full
season. R. BEAERSTO, Auctioneer.
NOTE.—-The reason for disposing of these horses as above is that Mr. C. C. Gardiner, being part owner, and being also Pres‘ dent and aetive Director of the Exhibition Com- mittee, has determined to sell in order to pre- vent its being said that his interest in them conflicts with the independence of his position asa Director in the oiediais of competent Judges for the Exhibition.
