___..._Q;---

If the contest in First Queens _has done nothing else

it has made the government show its hand in the matter. of finances. We were told by the Patriot some time ago, when we announced that Mr. Bell claimed that the ex- cess of expenditure over receipts was $137,000 that the government was busily engaged “seeking to discover", the state of the finances. We assumed then that l\/1r.l Bell had been taken to task for admitting that the ex-I cess was no more than $130,000 and that an endeavor was being made to make it appear considerably more.

Yesterday the result of the search for discovery

was made known through the Patriot and we are told that it was submitted to the various meetings held in support of Mr. Crosby in the First District. Now what do we find from the statement signed by Mr. John An- derson, the Provincial Auditor, and Mr. Bell the Premier?

The receipts up to September 9th, are given as

$429,054.70 and the actual disbursements as $566,396.51,

instead of showing an excess on the debit side of,$137,- 000 there would be a comparatively small difference which would be more than made up for in ordinary cir- cumstances by the revenue due and payable this fall. It

is well known to the government and all those who take §r"‘*"“"l°- l“_ ’“‘?_“l"g “P "f‘“e"‘*‘~’° an interest in public affairs that the large proportion of 0

In order to make the showing worse the government

sets forth that the receipts include $116,243.30 of the subsidy paid in advance and assert that if this be de-

ducted the excess of expenditure over receipts would be 2 Sglggtiong fgf 2

$255,938.78.

Now just see what this means. This is a statement I

of actual receipts and expenditure. No account is tak- en of the uncollected revenue which would offsetthe expenditure, but that part of the revenue which has been collected is deducted because, forsooth, the period of the

year to which it applies has not expired. “
