Mr. Stewart then-referred to the in- creased cost of Education. In ten years it has, pretty nearly doubled. The importance of education to the counttry cannot he measured by dollans and cents. But are we gel. ting value ~for the money we are ex- pending. Are we keepipg up with the advances made by other Pro vinccs. The most serious condition that we have to fade today is the number of our small schools. The multiplicity of these small schools is costing the Province too much money, and the results are not sat- isfactory. This is a. matter that will have to ibe dealt with in some way. The cost of etluaction is now nearly $300,000 a your, which is more than can be afforded. We have paid the teachers up to the end oi‘ the year i923; and we propose to do this iii future years,

As to public works Mr. Stewart pointed out that n great deal uf per inauent work has yer to hi; dope, un account of the storm of last fail. It \viii be tliu policy ‘of the govern inent to rebuild th ibridgcs and whnrves in u pe maueut way. 'l'bat is tho most economical way in the future. li is proposed to do iiwuy with tho mud inspect-ore and to ri-turn to thc old system of road iepuir. We proposn to follow the policy which was laid down by tho Liberal Conservative (lovcrnmcnt. To borrow public moncy on public roads is all very well when tho works are so [ierniantiiit that they will outlast the term i'or which thc money was borrowed. The roads tionstructetl in the past four years have bccn ephemeral. ‘Fhey require constant repair. We propose to es- tablish n patrol systi-m to maintain these roads, 'l‘o pay the cost we pro posc to levy a tux on the gnsolene used iby car owners. The improve- ment ot‘ the roads will result in ii saving to car owncrsu-Wc will get fioni car owni-r visiting the I'm- vince much or the money required for the uplkeep of the roads.

iCoucernlng agriculture the Pre- mier pointed out that the ilk-evince was spending $60,000. The sudden .l'llll(ll'li.Wfll of the Agricultural grunt has made it necessary to see to it that every dollar is productive at‘ results. We niusl get down to tosentiuls. Wo piopose lo ‘curry on exhibitions, iuruiters and women's ‘Institutes, etc, ilut lust how fur are‘ we justiiieti lil making large ex pcnditurea on Agricultural and tech nical school. The. Province is too poor to pay teachers $2,000 for six months service.

The cost of the Ifalcanivootl Asy- itini litst your was in round nunib- ers $125,000, We nre entering this, year in the bclicf that a consider nble reduction can he made iu the cost of that. institution. 'i‘hcre can be a. saving in tho purchase of coal, more attention ibeiiig paid to qual- lty.

The estimate ifor this year's inter est will be $70,000 and whom the highways are taken into account the interest will be upwards of $l00,00lI We have to repeal the poll tux and we propose to collect the revenue that is still lawful. 'l‘be tax otlicinls of the ltitc government, finished their work. llf the taxes were not. as the Opposition prom affirms, collected the fact is duc to tho m‘ i‘iciuls of the into government. The assessors on the into government did their duty in tho tfirst year. 1111i in the three succeeding yours they did not do so.

The tax act has never been pro- perly administered, it is absolutely untrue that the taxes are increas- ed lby the present government. But we hope that the collections will be more equitable and the illilOlilll obtained considerably increased. From personal property tho govern ment expects to get a considerable increase of revenue.

Our estimates are complete. lint there is that unfortunate mutter oi Andrew Fraser Mitchell. Wo have made a demand upon the Federal government for the zun-nnnt of that 'froud-—abuut $18,000.

The revenues oif this year nrt- os- tiniuted at $733,040 the axpenllitur cs at 8728.025. tit is expected that the revenue will bu mnde good. if iwe have faith in the future and if we are economical we can face the lfuture with cromfidencee. Arrange mciiis are being made for a confer cnoo at which the matter of tho claims against the Federal tlovc-rn- iueiit urili ‘be discussed and Ii‘ cf foils will bring results those of» forts will not. bc spared. ,

zMr. Saunders complained that thi- rrport of tho External Auditor had not sooner been laid on the table. ii;- eontendeti that if the Bell tiov einment had remained in tpower there would have been n-o deficit. The present governntcnfiias, said Mr. Saunders paid all kinds of bills that they should nevsr have paid. 'l‘hei-s is ‘no Province in Canada that pays tho rent of the Lieutenant Governor. The late Government re tuned to do so. But the present gov- ornment has done BO-jliilfl paid 82.000 to the Lieutenant Governor for a iiiouae that is not iworth half that much. They have paid for a needless surgical operation perfor- rnod at Summsraldo on a poor boy, a largo sum that was refused by the Boil oovai-nmont.
