James £. Macdonald and Cyrus Shaw, Esqs., Unanimously Nominated There was too much expense for legisla- i tion and the reluction should be carr.ed further Farining was the natural in dustry of this Province. and although farmers’ interests had been neslected in the past, if elected he would not sacrifice their interests, but would do the be-t he could to serve them Reciprocity would only be obtained from a Liberal Govern- ment James E. Macdonald, E-q., the next } speaker, said that he considered the tinancial question was the mo-t important one at the present time. The public accounts show that we have an expend:- ture of about $285,000 a year, with a probable income of not more than §201,- 000. The Land Office, which yielded over $70,000 in L891, only collected $43,- 000 in 1892, end = this year the receipts wilj be litthe over $20,000. There will be a probable deticit this year of $100,000, and that with the indebtedness up to the end of 1892 will amount $300,009 that must be paid by the people of this Pre- vince, low this money was to bn paid Was the great question for the pcopl Every candidate should be prepared to } supplement the revenue, so that the ex- penditure should be met without deficits.

It they had im posed taxation, people would naturally and properly ob- ject to it, and they had borrowed to pay off the liabilities of the and obtained it at less expense than of the other provinces He claimed sup- port because he was a farmer, as anything by their pe edecessors tinancial tnat would be a disadvantage to othe: farmers would be an injury to him. He referred to the late Government collecting | taxes for three years although they prom- | ised to repeal the aasessment act. He showed that the late Government had de- ficits, notwithstanding they had secured many windfalls from Uttawa. They had also drawn $200,000 f-om capital and had paid $32,000 between 1583 and 1889 for | interest, without providing any sinking fund. The Crown Land Office had been badly managed by the late Government, | and they had to callin two gentlemen to } an lit the books, to find eut who had | robbed it of $3000, and this cost $5000. Many of. the accounts in that office had been allowed to run out of date, although in some cases precepts had been issued, and heavy expenses incurred, which the farmers had to pay. The present Government had offered a their land, and the farmers got the benefit DAILY EXAMIN | necessity at ER : that time to the Bill, Be- | sides, the Government had shown the greatest incapacity in disposing of the de- | be ntures, showing the desirability of the investment, and had taken no means, advertisements in the papers, to attract the attention of capitalists. Those debentures were sold at 96 or 4 per cent. below par, whilst debentures of the Water Works Commissioners of the City of Charlotte- town, bearing the same rate of interest. had been sold at the same time at par. By the public accounts $6,310 had been lost as discount on the sale of the $158,000 of debentures that had been disposed of up to the e nd of 1892, and as the leader ot the Government had refused to say whe received the interest on the «e sbentures, and the } money | Provinee | sume | liberal discount to the people who paid for | it was highly probable that Peters i} Peters had pocketed the discount they said to he eee and Mr. Kiekhan then: selves, as were very wealthy.

The con- solidating of the statutes wc u'd save law ex- ; for during the thirty were revised by Palmer many beea made; penses to the people, | years since the statutes W. H. Pope and Edward changes and amendments hal and it was almost impossible to tell how the law was without consulting and that is ueually very costly work. Mr. Shaw then took up the statement mide by the Government candidates that j the Provinee was $171,000 in debt on the | 24th April 1891 when the Peters adyinis- tration took charge He showed how Chalmers and Davison’s report did not show an indeoteduess of more than 102,900; but besides, he put the figures in the publ.e ac- count’s report Lefore the meeting, showing that the debt on the 3lst Dee 1891 wa< ouly } imawvyers, $154,009, although the deficit for that vear was over $350,000, “How then. -aid Mr. Shaw, * could there have been a ” debt of 3171,000 on the 24th of Apr il Leel” when the government caine in they said they were going to make revenue and ex penditure meet, and they passed a b.ll to give discounts in the Land Office. The Opposition held that the measure was an unjust one because it gave the man who held back his payments, and gave nothing to the man who had promptly paid for his land. discounts to TO BE CONTINUED OR <r + ae THE LIBERAL RALLY. Boru sides of politics were repre ented lat the Liberal rally last evening, and the | Market Hall was well filled. Hon. David Laird presided, and Mr. Fred. J. Nash was secretary.

The cha:rman, in opening the meeting, charged the Opposition with send.ng en- culars through thecountry witch contain: ed statements that were not truc. It was stated in one cof there circulars that the Government were not pressing our chains upon the Domin on, Tey bad attended to the matter however atid tue docutmietits con- | nected therew.th had been lad before the i Hou-e.

Mr. Prowse had shown good business abil- ity in the management of his own and ie believed he would display the same ability in the management of public af- fairs, if elected, as he felt contident he would be.
