are people of spirit there, anu one or two years of prosperity under free trade will wipe away their debt. He thought this province was well able to pay its debt, even withont one dollar from Ottawa. The man who cries out bankruptcy is doing his best to ruin the province, and he never can’recall such a wrong statement. We should try to raise the credit of the province and do good among the people with whom we live.

Hon. Mr. Forbes seconded the motion that the House go into committee of supply.

Hon. Mr. Gordon was the next speaker. He complimented the Leader of the Gov ernment upon his eloquent speech, and said he knew no one better able than he to make black appear white and white appear black. A man with that power is the possessor of a fortune. He (Mr. Gor- don) did not have that power. He hoped, however, that the statements he would make would stand the test of truth. In the first place, said he, the Leader of the Government tries to make it appear that taxation was necessary on account of the acts of the late Government. This is not so. A year ago the Leader of the Gov- ernment told us there was no debt on this Province. If that was true, how is it that there is to-day a debt of $171,000 and a balance carried over? When the debentures were issued we were

statement

told that they were to go to pay the presumed debt of the late Govern- ment. The Leader said nothing then

about putting on taxes, excepting to give us to understand that he could get along without them. The Leader says their estimates are real estimates. Last year they voted $15,000 for roads, and the enormous sum of $48,000 was expended. Whai is the good of voting estimates of this kind? This Government has been responsihle to nobody and the people have been grossly deceived. In the words of that great statesman and Libera!, Hon. Joseph Howe,--

“We find the Executive Council responsible to neither the Governor nor the people,as anticipated, under re- sponsible governn.ent. They seem to have a common interest in a lavish and ex- travagant expenditure of the people's money. The votes of the Legislature for the public service have without limit or restraint.”

been exceeded

The Leader of the Government also said that the late Government’s estimates weré not honest ones, that “fours will be honest.” That was a noble statement. But how was the promise kept. They mated $2000 for rights of way, and $7000

est

was

spent. They also estimated $7000 fo ferries, where we were told no repairs

would be required. Is this honest estimat- ing? The cost of the Elfin and Southport last year, accord ng to the Public Accounts, was $16,140.58. Last the om missioner of Public Works told us thes steamers were in splendid condition—that, in fact, both were never in better condition. This was said after a large expenditure had been made on these steamers in 1892-93 But what do we find now? An outlay of $16,140.58 during the past season 01 in a few months of the when asserted that the steamers were in splendid condition. The following extract speech made by Hon. Joseph Howe, might with propriety be inserted here :

“A party that levied taxes at their pleasure and spent thein as they pleased, mismanaged public affairs to a degree never before approached within this

which the labor and toil of years will not remove.”

duction of the report showing errors in the Registry Office. We regret these errors. But is it not remarkable that all the legal talent of Charlottetown who have todo with this office failed to dis- cover these errors, or to find out tuat pro- perty was insecurely registered. If this is true, then we are in unsafe hands. He (Mr. Gorlon) did not see much saving in the cost of printing, as a stenographer and typewriter had to employed, and the salary paid him should fairly come

under the head of printing. A great deal had been said about the road ma- chines. A member of the Executive

Council, Hon. Mr. Farquharson had said that ifall the people of the Province would work one day that would be. suffic- ient to keep the roads in order, and money would be needed. Besides on cor- duroyand patches of certain other roads the

no

machine will not work, and it also take- from many a farmer the chance of mak- ing a little money by road labor. After some further structures concerning the

manner in which the present -administra- tion managed the affairs of the Province and the bold way in which they spent the money, Hon. Mr. Gordon brought. bis remarks toa close by quoting as from Chief Justice Campbell :

*Timorous mortals start and sbrink

Hon. Mr. Sinclair was speaking when the House adjourned at 10.30.

AGRARIAN CRIME IN IRELAND.

A Caretaker Brutally Murdered.

The Dastardly Deed Denonnced.

ee

Cork, April 26.

The revival of agrarian crime in the murder of caretaker Donovan, on one of the farms of the Ear! of Cork and Orrery, Glenlara, County Cork, on Friday even- ing, has created great excitement through- out the country and among all classes of the people. All the priests in the diocese of Cork denounced the murder from the altare.

Champions of Home Rule and the old Land League are foremost among those en- gagedin searching for the murderers. Two men named Duffy and Shelley were arrested.

House of Commons Proceedings.

Orrawa, April 26.

In the House of Commons yesterday a resolution condemning the Ottawa Free Press of contempt of Parliament, for pul- lishing a slanderous statement regarding Mr. Speaker White, was passed, The article imputed partizanship to the Speaker in his ruling.

The debate on the Northwest School Question was resumed, and occupied the whole of the evening session.

On Friday Mr. Davies will enquire of the ministry if they know that the custom house officer on the frontier between Haul!- ten, Me., and Woodstock, N. B., isa saloon keeper.

An Innocent Girl Assassinated.

Crixciywatri, O., April 25.

Mary Gilmartin, a clerk employed by the Pulvermacher Galvanic Belt Co., was shot and instantly killed while on her way to work. The murderer was arrested and gave his name as George Reed, aged 30. But letters in his pocket identified him as a Catholic priest—the Rev. Dominic O’Grady. Insane jealcusy of the girl and her desire to get rid of his unwelcome at- tentions caused the tragedy. Miss Gil- martin came to this country from Ireland last September, and four months later Father O'Grady followed her.
