Mercier ndsthat Que- bec`s. nancial sairs are in Vadeplorabls condition, and sees no hope of-making the revenue and expenditure balance. He sug- gests, therefore. the oonsidersition of these points : (l) Whither the province has fared justly at the hands of the -dominion in re gard to subsidy: and (2) whither the growth of any section of the dominion can be best promoted by the dependanee of it upon the bounty of the federal government. No harm can come of the conference and of the discussions in which it will engage. it cannot force the dominion government into any position to which that government does not ussent. and hence the people cannot be terried by the ghost stories" in which the conservative press indulges. A raid cannot be made upon the federal treasury unless the custodians of that treasury are consenting parties, and until "the house meets it will -`be impossible to conjecture what the newnttitude of the ministry is towards the provinces and their claims. It is noticeable, however, that while the conservative press is discouraging the pro- vincial conference, and declaring, that there can be no increase in the subsidies granted by the federal to the local governments- aihile the Montreal Gazette intimates that the provinces should raise their own revs- nue, and by such a rats of taxation as they choose to impose-the records of parliament contain declarations of a party character. On March mth, I886, less than a year ago, Hon.
