Lis honor from Bay Fortune (Mr, Dingwell) seems to think that ifa simi- Jar law were ig eperation in the neighboring Culunies we should pass this bill here, but | do fot agree with him.

of the House of Assembly? His bonor from

Queen's County (Mr. Headerson) said, during |

& previous discussion on this bill, that a man who had property should Lave a greater amount of influence in returning members to the Legislature than those whohadnot. He considered that a man earning £30 or £40 a year should not have as much influence as one who hud a large amount of property. Weil. we know that the man, who earns £30 or £40 is as much affected by the laws as the man who ig Worth chgugands. And because a man possesses a large amount of property, is that any reason that he should have more weight than the laboring wan who produces that

operty? The man who labors with his

ndyis the man who enricl.es the country. If the man-who has a large income had to eatn bis livelihood, perhaps he would not earn sO much a’ the man who earns £30 or 40a year. In fact, the man who has a large

amount of property only derives it trom the |

Jaboring classes. Besides, the man who pos- |

justice that a man, for that smallsam, should

pause before we would give such power to hany clasg.of mea as this bill will confer upon the owners of property. | . Lhen. Mr. Anvewsun: I do not know whe- i ther | properly anderstand his honor from Bay Fortune (Mr Dingwell) but he appears to think that the bill is eonfined to Charlotte- ‘town. Lam sure thatis not the case, neither do L think there is anything new in it.

lon. Mr. Dincwett: I mer ‘ly referred to Charlottetown because it possesses the great fest amount of wealth, and a few individuals lhere, for what woald be to them a trifling expense eould exercise an undue influence at elections.

Lion. Mr. Anperson : It does not give any parties more votes than they have at present. [t enables them tu get their votes recorded without so much trouble. A man may be entitied to vote and circumstances may pre- vent him from going tothe district. In that ease it is only fair that he should be allowed to record his vote at the nearest polling place.

lon. ArrorNney Geverat: I think there ; is Something novel in this bill, and it is very unusual to give the Sheriff of one Coun y power to record yotes taken in another. yet when you lovk at the rights and interests of parties, | do not think it can operate un fuirly. The election law as it stands, ex- pressly and clearly mmtends that every person having a vote ina County, however distant he may reside from it, may exercise his pri- vileges by voting there. And looking at the imtention and desire of the Legislature that he should exercise that privilege. I do ln t think there is anything untair io facili- jtating the means by which he may do it. } It has been alleged that it would give a pri- vilege to &@ man of property to vote in Various plaecea which he would nut otherwise be en- abled to do. but that is not a sound objection in my estimation, for | would rather be in- clined to encourage men ol property to exer- cise their privilege, and not only the man of property, but the man of moderate means; and even the poor man who may have a qualification to vote in a distant part of the island should have achanee to record his vote ata small expense. Take Georgetown for instanée; and there are many persons qualified to vote there who reside in Char- lottetown. Well, say a poor man has a lot, and arich man basa number of lots, and both find it an inconvenience to go down. ‘Lhe resistance of some threatened measure of taxation might be the objectof the poor man, aud putting on that object with the rich man. Well, the rich wan could employ his horses to take bim down, while the poor man would have to tra- vel on foot, or perhaps could not yo at all, and therefore, though he was as much inter- | ested in the election as the rich man, he

eould not avail himself of his privilege Then it appears to me that this bill, which | would enabl: them both to vote in Charlotte- town, would operate in favor of the poor |} man as much, if pot more, than of the rich aan. Ido not think there ts any thing ob- jectionable in the bill in point of principle ' We have heard of a@ gentleman iv the other | Provinees travelling 200 miles in a day to vote, while simultaneous polling was going fon, and. as far as the law is concerned, the same tight be done here. Therefore, this ' bill is nothing more than carrying practically into effeet what the law at present theoretic- ally allows.

I think the man who votes for two members for Charlottetown should be satisfied, and leave the inhabitants of Summerside and Georgetown to return whatever representatives they think proper, and so with other places.

L will only say that L regret that his honor cannot see any Common sense in the members on this side of the House. endeavoring to carry out the views [ enter- tain, | beg leave to propose the following amendment :—

“From and after the passing of this act, every person qualilied to vote for the return of men:bers to serve in the Legislature of this Island, shall vote iu the district in whick he resides, aud not else- wiere.”’

Hon. the Presipent: I do not think that amendment would be fuirorbonest. bimight say that there are persons residing in Char- lottetown who bold as much property in Sum- merside us they do here, and they should be allowed to vote there as well as where they reside. | believe a man in Charlottetown owns the largest property in Summerside, and surely the men who have property should bave a voice in making the laws to protect it.

Hon. Mr. Dinaweut: I rise to second the amendment. Though it is a Government measure, yet*that does not do away with the svundness of our reasons for opposing it. 1 am still of opioion that there is no certainty for a candidate while you open such a wide door to outside influence. I am not opposed to a man haying a proper influence who possesses property, bat there should be some- thing to limit that influence, so that it would not interfere with members in other districts. A man may act up as a candidate, and de- pend on the people in a district, but in eon- sequence of this wide door being thrown open, a large number of special votes may be re- |} corded against him, and a man who is ob- noxious to the people returned,

[fit goes into operation there will be many disappointed, and perhaps your honors will regret passing 16.

Hon. Mr. Watkser: A person living in Nova Seotia and holding property here may come over and record his vote for every mem- | ber of the Legislature, and thus control the votes of thuse who are mure interested in the elections than he can be.

Hon. the Presipent : He must be resident in the Island for twelve months

A bridge, said tis honor, at

should pledge the meu:bers at the next elec- tion, or make up ther minds to be heavily taxed, for new ollices are being created, and the public expenditure is rapidly increasing.

Hon. Mr. Beer: ‘Taxation bas. not inereased much of late, bat our mercantile operations have increused—the revenue has increased, and of course there is a corresponding in crease in the labor of cullecting it, which must be provided for. A few years ago vur revenue was only £40,000, now it is nearly £70,000. L do not think we are running the country in debt without hav- ing something to show tor it.

Hlon. Mr, Dixeweti: Though the country is prospering aud the revenue has increased, yet still the public debt is nereasing. Last year, though the revenue was the lurgest we ever had, yet it was not sufficient to cover the expenditure. If some change is not made we will svun be in the same poSitiun as Canada.

tion. Mr. Begr : We are not more than one year's revenue in debt, while the other Colo- nies are six, eight or ten years,

Hon. Mr. Dincwett: What is the use for us to be condemning tie policy of the other Colonics if we follow the same coure ourselves ?

Hon. the Prestpenr: The expenditure of the past year would be considerably within the revenue if it had not been for the extra- vrdinary expenges which were incurred in consequence of the tenant league distar- hances, but the people have themselves, not the Legislature, to blame for that.

Hon. Mr. Diyewetu: I admit that the people of Queen’s County have been the cause of that expense, but I do not see that they have been the least curtailed in the ex- penditure.

Hon. Mr. Henpexson: If his honor would fully consider the amount of extraordinary expenses which have been incurred within the past year, and which the Government could not avoid, f think he would not be so much disposed to find fault; and if he had a fair chance of seeing what independent members of the Government have had to do, myself for One, giving our time when we do pot even receive our travelling expenses, l think he would admit that we are not overpaid.

House resumed and progress reported.

lion. Mr. MeDonanp moved for leave to in- troduce a bill to alter the act constituting the Legislative Council elective, and ip doing so observed that the object of 1t was to bave the election at a more convenient season of the year. By the present law the time for hold- ing the election was coufiard to a few days before or after the secund day of December, and the roads at that season were generally bad, and the rivers almost impassable. It was therfore thought advisable to give the Government power to cali the election ata more Conventent season,

The bill was then read a first and second time, committed, reponged agreed to, and or- dered to be engrossed.

Oo motion of the Hon. Mr. Beer, a bill to amend the election law was reada third time apd passed.

similar to those in the aeighboring Provinces,

and whieh would be just and fair in every respect.

Hon, the Prestpent: The prioeiple of the bill is not new. It is only carrying out the principle of the present law.

Hon. the Peesspent: I agree with his honor the Attorney General that the present election law gives an advantage to the wan whe has the means of

His honor trom Bay Fortune (\ir. | Dingwell) said we were forcing this measure upon | the people. I do not think it a proper statement | for any member of the Llouse to make. The bill | came here by message trom the House of Assembly, and it must have been that branch of the Legislature he was allading to. for he said “ Thirty members,’’ I believe the bill passed through the House of As- sembly withouta dissenting voice; therefore we are not forcing it upon the people. We have a right to exercize our opinions; and [ said before, aud say again, that it is a just measure.

llon. Me. Dinewsti: I would like to know how the Sheriff; ean reasonably be expected to return any e¢andidate, when those special votes can be polled all over the Island, without first consulting together io Charlottetown.

Hon. the Pursipent. The bi!l provides for that

Hon. Mr. Dingwetu. Yes, but there is no cer- | tainty about it, and it will be no use fora candidate | to consult the people of the district he is to repre -ent, tur it cannot be said that he wil! represent any particular seelion of the country.

Hon the Parsipenr. It is the same now.

Hon Mr Dinawecs. I still maintain that it is no | matter how popular a canditate may be, it will be | no use for him to eensult the people of any district.

lion Mr McLaren I believe the bill is an im- | provemert upon the election law; but it dues not | take a vote from any persun who has one, neither dees it give a vote to any person who has none. It louly gives fucilities tu persons who have votes to

lion. Mr. Beer: LF do not see any jost reason to Oppose this bill. Ido not think it bas anything of a party naturein it. Lis honot from Bay Fortune (Mr. Dingweil) said that a person, for £200, or £360 could have a vote in all parts of the Country: but I do not think any person would give that amount for such a purpose. If any person has reason tu complain, | think it is the car- riage-taakers, for sometimes quite a number of carriages are broken down by persons tra- velling to record their votes. L am prepared to support the bill,

Ilon. Mr. Dincweit: If his honor thinks there would be litth: amterest in purchasing property for the purpose of having votes, | } differ with him. £ think his honor will re- colleet that a uumber of lots were purchased in Georgetown for the purpose of enabling the parties to vote.

flon. Mr. Besr: That time is past.

lion. Mr. Dincwet.: Yes, it is; but Ido not know that the dispositions of men have changed. As to breaking carriages, if per- sons take such an interest as to break their carriages, or kill their horses, in order to vote for sume metyber who is not favourable to the people of Georgetown, or other places, | they would also purchase property fur that purpose. L koow very well that there is a great influence brought to bear agaiust the people of Goorgetowa. They can hardly say they can return the member they wish.

Hon. the Passtpenr: Then his honor is opposing the bill for local purposes. It is not intended for Georgetown or any other jlocal place, and [do not think it isa fair | way to diseuss the bill.
