this most important thing is apt to actions are light and fairly distributed.
It conforms to the basin principals of
just taxation—"ability to pay" and
"equality of sacrifice." The revenue
derived from it is easily collected, and
it cannot in its working oocaeion hard-
ship. The original bill of 1892 was
explained at considerable length by
the then Premier and Treasurer. It was
not debated to any great extent. The
justice of its underlying principles was
universally admitted. The bill itself
ear -marked for charitable purposes the
money to be collected upder it and it
was immediately copied by all the
provinces.
Ia 1896 it was amended, widened and
improved. On that occasion the present
Treasurer sought to weaken the bill and
moved that the bill be not now read the
third time, but be forthwith referred
back to committee of the whole House,
with instructions to amend sub -sections
2 and 3 of Section 4 by striking out the
figures"$2 80" and '15.00," and insert-
ing in lien thereof "$$1.00." And to
amend sub -section 4 of said section by
striking out the figure "$5 00" and in-
serting "$2 00" in lien thereof. And to
amend snb•aection 5 of said section by
striking out the word "ten" and sub-
stituting "six."
The effect of this amendment, which
was, of course, defeated, would have
been to take away at least one-third of
the earning power of the bill. The
amendment was supported by the whole
opposition,—the present Premier voting
for it.
The total revenue derived from this
one act of the late Government np to
the end of 1907 amounts to $5,7213,727.
The amount received last year was
$221,692. As our country grows wealth-
ier these receipts will inorease.
The Supplementary Revenue bill,
which taxes corporetione, was passed in
1599. On its second reading Mr. Foy,
the present Attorney -General, moved
the six months' hoist, and the present
Premier and all his then following voted
to defeat the bill. On third reading

Live Stock Markets.
Torcnto, May 19—Dealers were aur -
prised to -day at the City Cattle Market
to see another quite heavy run following
the heavy delivery at the Union Stock
Yards yesterday. For several weeks
past now the deliveries at both markets
hrve been light, and it was frequently
stated that cattle were getting aoaroer
in the country generally and that there
would be no more heavy runs this sea-
son. Today's experience scarcely bore
out the theory of a serious shortage.
However, cattle are not grown in a day,
and it ie not likely that heavy runs will
steadily continue. The higher prices
which have ruled in the local markets of
late have apparently encouraged big
prices in the country, with the result
that a larger number of cattle have been
brought out than was expected, and at
the same time the steady rise in prioes
in the Toronto market is temporarily
checked.
The quality of to -day's offerings was
again of a very fair average, with quite
a good proportion of very choice cattle.
' There is a good export demand. The
Old Country markets are strong and
supplies are reported to be short.
Sheep and lambs are steady, with
light offerings.
Good veal calves aro holding fairly
steady, with lighter raps. y
The hog market is steady and un-
changed from last decline.
