It maintains the prin iple of local option—no drinkirg shop being permitted unless by consent im writing, Obtained at a public meeting, of two-thirds of the ratepayers of the schoo] district. It proscribes secret drinking, no private rooms or little green baize com- partments being permitted, but every man being obliged to take his glass openly and publicly in a barroom to which there would be only one docr. Applications for license are to be accompanied by a cheque, as a guarantee that the applicant will conform and only three kinds of license Wholesale, Hotel and Saloon, but under the latter only is a bar to the law ; are allowed, Viz. permitted. The bill almost, if Scott Act. , isan elaborate measure ; and net quite, as stringent as the So that if it were passed, tem have little or nothing to fear from the result of a Seott Act election. perance would The measure has, however, been fierce:y attacked by the Opposition in the Lower House, and its fate in the Upper House is therefore settled In our Opinion, it Is about time the farce of passing bills in the Assemb'y, to be thrown out by the Council, were played out. Why waste time abvut the Liquor Bill, or any other Governmen measure ? Better let the House membe's go home as soon as possible to beg hn toeil ‘“spring work.” -— an Potatees for Oniario. Waite our cellars are full, and while w Want & suUoOW Ty OF Some wieans of Commun cation with the mainland, the pe ple ol Nova Scotia are finding a ready market tur es they have to spare —in On- all the potat } tario The Ontario crop of last year was a failure ; there is a great scarcity for seed potatoes, and there is a demand there for all Nova Scotia can send, The Halifax Herald reports that ‘* 59,000 bushels have already been shipped or are in course of shipment by Messrs. J. P. Cox, Swinerton and vthers. The average price paid in Cornwallis is The thirty cents, so that the cost laid down in thirty cents pe: bushel. freight averages another Toronto is about sixty cents per bushel. Cornwallis potatoes are preferred to any rush of that experienced in other. There has been such a freight on the Intercolonial of late s great difficulty has been The maded with flour, ete., go back loaded with vetting cars. ears that down he come refined and raw sugar, cotton goods, ete., etc. Had there supply available itis probable that double the quantity of potatoes would have been pur- chased for the Ontario market. King's county farmers have made a bonanza out of their produce this year—not so much in the price: obtained, although prices have in all cases been realized—but in the fact that every bushel of fruit and produce Ifthe Ontario mar- ket became a prominent one for our pota- tues, it would largely develop trade be- tween the upper and lower provigces and nearly every car that brought down flour should go back laden with potatoes or manufactured goods.”’ When shall we have means of communi- eation with the mainland ? been a of cars ror rd has been in demand.

Having exhausted the vuealubsry of his abuse in prose, the genius of the Times betook himself to the regions of poetry and delivered himself of the following gem :— P Scum condensed of Lrish bog, Ruffian, coward, cemagoyue ; Bound ies liar, base detractar! Nurse of murder, treason’s factor! Spout thy tiith, diduse thy slime, Slander is to thee no crime, Huw cleverly history repeats itself in the recent attacks made by this journal on Parnell.

It cannot now be other than a painful one for me to make and for you to listen to. Nobody can realize more fully than I do how much I have disappointed the general expectancy, and fallen short of my reputation and of the good opinion in which I was held inthe community where J had lived so long. The suspension of the MaritimesBank is a great and lasting disaster, and has been made all the worse, I feel, by reason of the full contidence placed in me. My best friends suffer most. My personal pecuniary loss is it a moment like this, of little public concern, vad I only allude to the loss of my own means in the wreck of the bank to enable me to say with some hope of belief that I did not in- entionally bring about this calamity to others, [expected tne promises made by customers would be performed, and it may, perhaps, be vccepted as some evidence I did so think, however infatuated the belief may appear, that 1 gave no one any hint of a possible col- a a ala... THE DAILY EXAMINER, - - - ed on other securities, or gave security along with the exchange as collateral, and to. still further aid them recourse was had to two other expedients, which I now regret having resoited to without the sanction of my diree- tors-—-Mr. Stewart represented that he would strengthen their credit if instead of forcing their exchange on the market on this side 1 would pay them for it in our exchange which they would use abroad, and they would make their bills mature in London before ours and thus provide for ours. ‘Lhe other way of as- sisting to finance is even more to be regretted. This was to endorse their exchange which was sent to London for negotiation there. ~Mr. Stewart getting iton the plea that it was only a temporary thing and would save his calling on us for cables to meet exchange about to mature on which the. bank was al- ready liable, that it might not be used but would be in London in case of need. What was used they would retire, and what was not used would be returned. This was, unfor- tunately, listened to and acted on, A con- siderable amount of both kinds of exchange was not used when the bank closed. Some of it was en route, or not delivered, at any rate not used, and R. A. Stewart told me that bis brother in London had cabled to know if he woald return it, and that he had replied ‘‘cer- tainly,” and that I would get back. In a let- ter received this week Mr. Stewart writes:-— ‘*Much of the exchange is in our own hands, and can be cancelled or exchanged if we can legally co so. A great part of the rest of the exchange will be paid, and I amin hopes of some all round settlement that will cancel this part of the account altogether.” ANOTHER ACCOUNT which gradually increased, and by which there will be a heavy loss, is that of George McLeod. We found ourselves before we lapse, nor did lin any way protect myself, ny relatives, my partner or my friends. The bank had some very good general business and | nere were encouraging features connected with it. The dullness of trade was against it, | mt the chief cause of the losses was from | reavy advances to lumber and shipping firms. i feel that it is a poor satisfaction to my co directors for me t» say that I thoroughly re- cosnized t was the primarly responsible mana- ver and that [ am mainly to blame for the fate that has overtaken the bank. It is true hat they knew of the heavy lumber accounts | have referred to,and owing to the depression 1 lumber aud shipping, the danger of any ulue forcing of tuese accounts, and in hope i betler times, they approved generally of virsing these accoants along and working them down as we best could, bnt the board lid not know all the dettils, nor did my col- eagues know of the recent large increase in the liabilities of Messrs. Stewart, Guy, Bevan & Co. Between board days I had ilways calls for transactions that could not be put off, but I deeply regret I did not more fully consult with -my co-directors. I can miy now accept the blame that belongs to yperations which I hoped would avert loss, but which has only put otf and intensified the evil day. The two firms already named, R. A. & J. stewart and Guy, Bevan & Co., have done business with the bank since re-organization. Shortly after Robert A. Stewart came out here, about eighteen months ago, he was urg- ed to reduce. He told the directors that he had organized the NEW BRUNSWICK TRADING CO., with the view of strengthening the position of the two tirms, and that he expected to be able to reduce the liabilities as the directors wish- ed, but time would be required. He says (zuys owed Stewarts and he wished to see them carried through, and on his assurance that both firms had ample resources to meet all their liabilities, and that he would labor to realize and pay off, the directors agreed to re- liaquish the securities they held from Guay, Bevan & Co. on a milland timber limits in this province, and took, instead, £15,000 shares of the New Brunswick Trading Com- pany's s:ock, which the bank stillholds. It was then understood that the two firms were 30 intertwined that Mr. Stewart was to work for the reduction of the liability of the one as much as of the other, and the two firms have been looked upon as one and the same. Indeed it has since the failuves been found out, and can be proved, that Messrs. Stewart bought out the partners and took over the business of (suy, Bevan & Co. in 1882. ’ Later on, the accounts were increasing rather than being reduced, and a reduction was insisted upon. Mr. Stewart again met the board and assured us the Trading Com- pany was being made a success and that the accounts would result satisfactorily, only he ; must be allowed time and assistance to work | them down without being worried by me; and | he left the board with the understanding that | hewould do his best to reduce the debt. To quote | his own words he said: ‘‘It isa heavy undertak- ing, but you maiy be happy it isin good hands. I hope and expect it won't take very long.” But their credit did not improve. When the shipping season would cease there was difficulty in disposing of their exchange. Chen this difficulty was increased by an anonymous circular, which was sent around to the banks here and elsewhere. Afterwards Mr. Stewart was laid up in Boston, and this delayed his plans and did not improve the position, relapses, and bis physicians said that unless! he had freedom fiom care he could not live. I was anxious to relieve him as much as possi- ble. He induced me to believe that as soon as he conld get to Montreal and arrange for the tsansfer of the O-tiwa lumber business he had gone into from his co-partner to the Trading Company he could largely redace the indebt- His plans néed not be here detailed, ! but of them he wrote: ‘‘ Once this done the end would be near. One would be inclined to waver and doubt the possibility of ultimate success were it not as clear as day to me, pro- vided no accident or folly trustrates my When he was at length able to go to itreal he doubtless did his utmost to carry Spian, but was not able, although he pt coustantly advising that he was making satisfactory progress. Within a few hours of the stoppage of the bank oneof his telegrams stated that the Bank of Montreal hid virtually taken over Stewart’s account, that Maricime Bank stock would no ; is BOOM AWAY UP IN CONSEQUENCE, and he add:d, ‘* Keep cool and all will be well.” He promised to make a large deposit with this bank on Monday 7th March, and it was his failure to do tus that caused the ban's to close its doors. The Board knew tiiat the Ottawa business was one of gieat expectations and protit and that Mr. 8. had the Bank of Montveal aiding it. The N. B. Trading Company was report- ed as prospering and getting fresh capital in London and as having its business on this side readily done by the tank of Montreal, Chat- ham, and the Bank of British North America. All this is narrated not as an apology for me, lieving in the ultimate success of Mr, Stewart's endeavors to bring matters out all right. It Was the original business uf these firms which hal become the weakest and the worst that were crowded in on the Maritime Bank, and the effort to sustaiu them at this weak point has largely brought about this ruin. Owing to the delay aod embarrassment caused by Mr, Stewart's illness, the liability has much in. creased of late. When their ‘exchange could not be resold by this’ bank in sutlicient qualities ts meet ~ their requirements in order ty raise ash I borrow: He was dingerously ill, had several , » were aware of it saddled with sterling ex i change drawn on strong houses in Great Bri tain, but which had to be covered before it would be acecpted, and we had finally to re- tire it. The only security held was on one vessel, and all that Mr. McLeod would give voluntarily in addition was security on his two mills in Kent county. The statement ol his atfairs which he submitted showed a large surplus, and he professed to be confident of his ability to pay all liabilities, and, if ship- ping and lumber only yielded anything like the returns they had done, to reduce them very rapidly. The debt has not been reduced one dollar since. When pressing him for security, he wrote me a letter of which the FOLLOWING IS A COPY; ‘I have considered carefully the question of the security suggested yesterday, and ain, quite convinced it would not benefit eithe tie bank or myself were 1 tv give it. lam thoroughly satistied of my ability to pay your bank every ceut of my indebtedness and pledge myself that should any unforeseen circum- siauces arise which would disappoint my just expectations in this respect, I will prefer your bank before any other creditors to whom 1 might be indebted. I do not anticipate any such result and I trust this solemn assurance on my part to protect the bank (should any occasion arise for it) will be received by you and your directors in as good taith as I sin- cerely make it.” BUT AFTER ALL THE FORBEARANCE shown him he disregarded his promis*, and after transferring his good assets to his sons and others he made an assignment giving a pre- ference to one and another,and even to another bank, effectually shutting out all hope of our getting any dividend from his estate beyond the security now held. I have gone into some detail as to these ac- counts a8 their magnivude and mismanagement are what have dragged down the bank. It is a miserable story. It cost me my good name in this community, where I have lived for a quarter of acentury, and which I had ex- pected would be my permanent home. It has blotted out my home and the home of those who bear my name. It has caused grief and loss to my friends, and it has spread suffering among those who had aright to expect from me better things. I have little hope now of ever being able to repair the disaster in any degree, but all that 1 can do to aid the liquid- ators in their onerous work 1 shall be ready and willing todo, For the rest, Ican only cast myself onthe generosity of those who have sudered through me. During the delivery of this statement the narrator was very visibly affected, at times his voice altogether failing him. Provincial Legislature HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY, EVENING SESSION. APRIL 29.
