Has the Government of this Province | ; anv money at the banks “on ca!] ?” We | always cupposed tiat the Governmeni’s accounts at the banks were heavily eae drawn ! —_If the Government has’ money at the) banks “on call,” issuch money a “sinking fund” for the security of debeature held - ers ? There may be money “in call” tox day ; there may be more tomorrow. “Sink- ing funds” are usually invested acd only to bejdrawp upon for the purpose for which invested. The official “statement” here quoted wust prove a rude awakening to our de- | benture holders. Since writing the above we learn that the Premier admitted that the Government bas no funde “‘on cal! at the bank.” There is really no sinking fund. A dishonest attempt bas been made to mislead the public into the belief that the debenture debts were gradually being re« duced and the debenture holders into th, out of which they will eventually be paid.

This is not what the people were led to expect last year. Under all the cir- cumstances, the bargain must be regarded as a particularly hard one,—one which Premier Farquharson would vot consent Bleeding Piles A Prominent Business Mai Tesiites to His Cure by Using Dr. Chase's viii ment. Not a day pass2s but many people volunteer recommendations of Dr. Chase’s Ointment as an absolute cure for every form of piles. Mr. Jas. Jackson, cf the Laurie Spool Company, St. Alexis dcs Monts, Qufe., writes:-—-"‘ You may put my name to any praise you can give to Dr, Chaso’s Ointment, for it has done me more good than any medicine I ever used, : “I was ircubied for two years with taat cruel disease, bleeding piles, and after using Dr. Chase’s Ointment, I can say I am entirely rid of it. It is a treasure to all suffering from piles.” Dr. Chase’s Ointment is guaranteed to positively cure any ¢as® of itching, bleeding, or protruding piles. It has never yet been known to fail, and cer- tainly will mot fail in your case. For many years Dr. Chase’s Oint- ment has stood alone as the only ab- Solute and guaranteed cure for pileg and itching Skin diseases; 69 cents a eite, box, at all dealers, or Edmanson, Bates o0., Toronto.
