He i said that the case of those municipalities , which had borrowed from the Municipal Loan _ Fund would have to come up at no distant ' day. Such being the case, the House should : be put til] possession of all information on i the Mlttl%l so that it might consider the g claims of the iiiWllNMI which would i apply [Bl be relieved; and enforce the [E'oE l payment of the loan from those municipaii- ", l ties able to pay. It would be well for the i Government to obtain further information 30 that the 1lMrtr.l might know what muni: ' illlRlgt-tl had expended the loan as it was Eili'liliiiili= It should be spent an'l what. p municipalities [l8rd loaned L' their por- tion of it. It was also MrtlllulBl to know what had become of the securities and whether they had been legislated It88i] ' or not. He was glad that the Provincial l becretary approved of his (Mr. Sinclair's) 1 motion. It wou'd be Ertll that the House I? ghould obtain the proportion of the amounts I orrowed of the total assessments, and also such other information 'iS] would enable the House to deal accurately with the matter. Hon. Mr. WOOD said there was at pre- sent no means of iiallh' the information that had been asked for; the byJaws, in mmy in. stances, were unfortunately not carried out, and the money had been devoted to other purposes than those for which it was intend- t'itl k) large proportion of the whole ©,lralE hve millions of dollars, out of CaEartlt0Ilgl 'l'iiii,1. been expended on railways. Except the obourg and RilamrM! those railways Were in operation, and unfortunately had never yielded A% thing to those that invest- ed in them. In some instances, money had been expended on local works ml towns; in some few instances, something had been realized, but in the major part there had been no returns. IRtl!teM! not atomiseithia ~
