EVENING SESSION.
} A bilbifcorporating the Hall Company at Cardi as read a first time and referred to the ate Bills Committee.
| House then went into committee for the further ednsideration of the Appropriation | Bill,—Mr. John McLean in the chair. |Bill Yeparted agreed to without amend-
‘ment, 4nd ordered to be read a third time |
_ to-morrow. | The bi@ respecting Agricultural Exhibi- tions was discussed in comumittee of the ; whole, with Mr. A. McLeod in the chair. | Mt Bell argued in favor of a change in the form of the bonus’ to the Counties, and objected to the holding of the exhibition ‘and trotting races simultaneously. Hon. Mr..Sullivan explained that there ;was nothing st allin the bill about horse racing, ete., neither was any company men- jtioned. He thought the Government’s | proposition was in the best interests of the Counties. | Mer. Sutherland thought the propositions for both’ Provincial and County Exhibitions ivery favorable. He was of opinion that ‘the Gétfaty Exhibitions might be held every jaltermute year in some of the outlying dis- ‘tricts. He did not think it fair that George- ‘town a@nd Summerside should reap all the benefits of these exhibitions.
Mr... R. McLean was also in favor of
‘holding the County Exhibitions in the oat- lying districts, say every alternate year. |He thought Souris a very good place to |hold it, He was also of opinion that there |should be no limit to the amount the people |of the Counties might supplement the sub- ,sidy with. ' Hon. Mr. Sullivan explained that there ‘was Mmolimit to the amouat the people jmighttsubseribe. They might subscribe as jazuch as they liked, but the Government subsidy would not be more than $1000.
My. Underhay thought the proposition
mendable
aa Hon. Mr. Prowse spoke in favor of the ‘provisions of the bill, and was of opinion that a training park for horses was a_ne- cessity in this province. He thought that ithe managers of the Park should and | would do all in their power to keep it free from the gambling and other evils attend- ‘ant upon horse-racing.
Mr. McLellan thought the amount of subsidy to the counties was large enough. So far as ne was concerned he did not know but he would be justified in voting ifor the doing away with the subsities to counties altogether. Many of the people of his district could not compete very suc- cessfully with those living in the neighbor- hood of and in Sunverside owing to their distance from that place; in his opinion the Prince County Exhibition, was of very little benefit to anyone except the people of Summerside and vicinity. He thought the tendency was towards a general Provincial Exhibition.
Mr. Shaw remarked that if the people of the district represented by the hon. mem- ber could not take advantage of the Prince County Exhibition, he did not see how they could be benefitted if they had to bring their exhibits all the way to Char- ‘lottetown. He gave the Government every icredit for the manner in which they had encouraged stock raising throughout the | Province, but he thought it would be some ‘time before the people of King’s County could compete successfully with the stock [Telnaes of Prince and Queen’s Counties. | However, King’s County had the advan- ‘tage in the raw material, owing to her favourable shipping ports. The Pro-
‘inoere
‘vincial Exhibition§would not, he thought, be | ‘of any great benefit to King’ County. The,
‘amount of prizes hitherto carried off by the
@ | people of that County, at the Rrovincial
|Exhibition, was very smail indeed. Last 'year, the total amount of the prizes award-
ed was $1536.50, out of which sum $53 only:
| was won by King’s County exhibitors. And lthis amount was even larger than that won I by them at former exhibitions. He did ‘not know that the Government had been ‘memorialised to expend the additional
$1400 proposed. He was not favorabie to
the Government’s voting money to a com-
pany for exhibition purposes. He would ‘not say that the company would not deal out equal justice to all, but there was room
for doubt as many of the members of ithe Association were stock-raisers them- jselves and would be among the exhibitors. | Hedid not see why the Government should
| give a bonus to a company for the purpose |
lof obtaining exhibition grounds,
| House grounds for that purpose.
in which the prizes were distributed and
the amounts won by each county did not,
fairly represent the advantages of exhibi- tions. Exhibitions were in many respects of great benefit to farmers generally. The stimulus given to farmers and stock- raisers to breed from improved lines, was a very pleasing and progressive outcome of exhibitions. He believed that if the general exhibition was thrown open to the peopie of the other provinces it would be of great benefit to our people, as it would give them advantages ‘n the matter of purchasing improved stock, that they do not now possess. In his opinion the general exhibition must necessarily be held at Chariotretown for some years to come, and people living in its immediate

Hon. Mr. Ferguson thought the manner |
vicinity must, as a natural consequence, possess advantages in this respect not en- joyed by the people living at a distance ‘from the capital. He did not think there was anything in the objection that some ot the managers of the Company wou!'d exhibit animals themselves and that equal justice would not be meted out to all. He under- stood that the Company propose bringing
competent men here from abroad to act as judges in every depart- ment of hye stock. ‘Such a course
had been adopted in other places and had worked successfully, and he thought that such a course, if adopted here, would be attended with beneficial results. He ithought it in the best interests of the farmers of al] the counties to come together and compete for prizes, as such a proceed- ing would have the effect of riasing a spirit of rivalry in the matter of stock-raising that could not bet be beueficial in the end. The Government have given this matter of exhibitions every consideration, and he thought the propositions in the bill now before the House were in the best interests of the Province. He hoped that the gen- eral exhibition to be held in Charlottetown would be more provincial in the future than in the past. The increased amount to be igiven tor exhibitions has been carefully |guarded, and the Government will see that {it is expended in the interests of the people jin general. He did not think Government | House Grounds nearly so well adapted for ‘exhibitions as the proposed new grounds, owing to their distance from railway and steamboat landings. The new grounds had excellent vailway and other facilities. He did not think the Government would be justified in voting a large sum for the fitting up of Government House grounds. He be- lieved the bill gave the peuple of tho coun- ties privileges which were not given. the management of the Provincial Exhibition, The grants to the counties were uncondi- tional and could not tail to be of great benefit to the people. He was aware that there wasalways more or less of a suspicion about the appointing of the judges, but ke thought this feelling would be done away with by the placing of the control of the exhibitions in the hands ofa company. The Government would, of course, have a good deal to do with the framing of the prize list, and they would see that no particular interest was ne- glected. He thought the measure was a progressive one, aud that it would mark a new era in our exhibitions.
Mr. Sinciuir approved of the suggestion that the Provincial Exhibition should be thrown open to the Maritime Provinces. He thought that the exhibition could be much better handied by a company than by the Governurent, and was of opinion that the amounts proposed to be voted were quite large enough.
Mr. Gordon briefly referred to the en- couragement given tc stock-raisers by the present Government, and the beneficial re- sults accruing therefrom. He thought the
son to be proud of the advance the country has made in the matter of exhibitions. He

never heard any complaint made about the appeintinent of the judges, or heard anyone take exception to their decisions on the ground of political feelings.
Mr. Farquharson spoke in favor of the management of exhibitions being in the hands of a company, and thought the Goy- ernment would never regret the step they were about to take.
Mr. Wise advocated one central exhibi- tion. He thought the Government deserv- ed every credit forthe course they were pursuing.
Mr. Biake was ia full sympathy with the proposed change in the mode of conducting exhibitions. For hisown part, however, he never could see any of the ditliculties complained of as to the distribution of prizes. He knew that judges had been appointed who were not com- petent, but he did not think their political feelings had anything to do with their ap- pointment. He was glad to leara, how- ever, that there was now a likelihood that there would be no room for complaint in this respect in the future. Company management had been tried with success in some of the other provinces and in the United States, and he could see no reason why such an arrangement should not Lworl: satisfactorily here. It was the intention of the company, he explained, to bring judges here from the neighboring provinces and from the United States, so that there would be no further cause for complaint about the distribution of prizes. He had no objection to throwing our Provincial Exhibition open to the Maritime Provinces, as he thought the Island was well able to hold her own. With reference to horse- racing lie could not see why it could not be as well and carefully conducted in Charlottetown as in England, and he | assured the House that) nothing would be ‘left undone by the managers of the asavcia- ‘tion to keep the Park free from the evils that sometimes atteud these sports. He ‘thought the bill before the House in keep- ing with this progressive age, and he hoped every hon. member would see his way clear to vote for it.
The bill was reported agreed to and ordered to be read a third time to-morrow.
The bill incorporating the Alberton Town Hall Company was read a first time and re- ferred to the Private Biils Committee.
The bill relating to the Town of Sammer- side Incorporation Act was further con- sidered in committee, Mr. John McLean in the chair, and reported agreed to.
