They all desired to congratulate the Treasurer on the state- ment he had just made, and the manner in which it had been delivered. It was for the Oppoeition to take u the other side of the gum. and to s ow that the Mr. Harcourt, in opening his speech on the budget, expressmi his desire that it should prove both clear and ade ,uate. and be, as on for-me: occasions, absolute 1y faithful to essential facts. He then referred to the fact that the actual re- ceipts of the province during 1894 had exceeded the estimated receipts by $306,- 290, amounting as they did to 33,- 453,162, which sum did not include moneys paid by municipalities on ac- count of sums borrowed. The receipts from the Lands Department has been $1,057,532, and exceeded the estimate by $141,532. Of the revenues from this de- partment $980,497 had come from woods and forests. The second item in import ance was the revenue from licenses, though this source of revenue had been gradually declining during recent years. the cause being the decrease in the num- ber of licenses, which was reduced from 8,523 in 1890 to3,276 in 1893. There had been a great reduction in the number or licenses during the last two decade, the number issued in 1873 having been 6,185, equal to four for every 262 01 the popula- tion, as against one Ior every 645 now. The province spent last year on charit- able institutions $182,692, as against $167,000 in the previous year. The amount received from succession duties was applied on this account, and he hoped that before long the two accounts would equalize one another. On mining devel~ opment $15,266 had been spent, from which they hoped to reach a rich harvest wLen the time so improved as to enc .Lr- age the investment of capital in these valuable fields. There was now in the province excellent accommodation lor 4,586 insane, and at the end of 189-! there were 4,441 inmates in the seven arylums of the province.

Sir Oliver Mowat did not see the neces- sity of postponing the delivery oi the budget speech, as the estimates and pub he accounts were expected to be in mem bers’ hands that night. Mr. Whitney remarked that last year, when the Opposition \\ ere not labor-mg under circumstances as uniavorable as‘ those of to-day, the request for an ad- journment was granted immediately. The force of the contention of the leader at the Opposition must be clear to every member of the House; that ii the esti- metes and public accounts, which pie- sumably formed the basis of any criticism which was to be made, were brought down within tWenty-four hours of the time in which members of the Opposition were expected to criticise the nnancial statement, the practical efi‘ect of such a course was to tell them that their criti- cisms must not take in the estimates and public accounts. Mr. Matter said it would prove very in- convenient for the Opposnion, in fact, they would be taken at. a. disadvantage, if the budget speech was delivered on Thuxsday, owing to copies of the pubhc accounts and estimates not yet having been tweed i_n the hands 01' members. ““hâ€" ONTARIO LEGISLATURE.

Mr. Conmee said the hon. gentleman could not find maladminismtion in the acts oi this Government. It was an easy thing to use in one’e place in this House and make empty charges, as the hon. member had done. The hon. member had criticised the Government for its es- tabllshment of a dairy tax-n; in Algoma. une of the (31‘in planks of the Oppositio: in Algoma was that the Government was not doing enough lor the Algoma district. l‘hey said [bat nothing was being done to settle that countr , while the fact was that thousands were going into the coun- try.
