»Sir,—It is admitted on all sides that the people of P. E. I. are 0X- perieneing prosperity at the pres-‘ ent time. It. is also admitted. thatl the people are indulging in luxury spending and in some cases their expenditures undoubtedly lean to- wards extravagance. This being so the people are now financially able to bear an increase in taxation. But what is being done by those insid- ious and. crafty animals called statesmen and politicians whose

Both ‘political parties should agree at all cost to cease borrowing on loan to meeting annually recurrent expenditure and to press for the recovery of outstanding arrears of revenue and reduce the overdraft at the Bank by this $100,000 and thus save the $5,000 a year interest paid to the Bank.
