From the very favorable
in which my representations
received, I am exceedingly hopeful
the Justice of our claim in this re-
will be recognized at the coming
of the Dominion Parliament.
Our government is continued in
we shall feel it our duty to press
matter very earnest-ly upon the
on of the Dominion authori-
i
andl feel assured that our request,
that not one public 'or work of
any magnitude was left to ‘tell the tale,
will demonstrate why they have been
voted out of power. ‘ ' '
Exception has been taken to issuing
debentures for permanent works, build-
ings, steel bridges, &c. We contend that
when 8% per cent bonds can be floated
at par _it is preferable to borrowing from
the bank at 5 per cent. We, however,
intend going slow in this line; and I
think the public will agree with me
when I say that we cannlot erect Col-
leges and Asylums out of ordinary
revenue, and that itis preferable to is-
sue debentures having a sinking fund
attached, which at the end of the 30
years, the time which the law provides,
willhave accumulated to a. sufficient
amount to pay of the -matured. de-
bentures; '
It gces without saying that our school
system with the Prince of Wales College
at its head is the pride of our province.
We hope, however, to improve upon the
system by introducing Agriculture and
Horticulture, and when the New Year
and the New Century shall have arrived
that a Minister of Agriculture will also
appear upon the scene and with him a
Professor of Agriculture, who will oc-
