In June last while we were du - cussing other grave questions in Parlia- ment, the Government let it be known that they proposed increasing the excise duties upon whiskey and beer. This sL terrified the manufacturers that they withdrew the liquor in bond, and paid to the Government. in the month of June last, exactiy a million of dollars more than they would have paid but for this threat, and exactly $ million more than was paid in the corresponding month of the prrcedilg year. The a million dollars was received by the Gov- ernment in the financial year 188:$7 that aught net to hare been received until 1886, and by this dishonest manteuvre the Government's deficit for 1886 was lessened by a niltion dollar's. Again, the proceeds of the sates of Dominion lands hare been credited by thuGovern- ment to annual revenue. On the name principle precisely as of one of you farm en soli your farm for 85,033 and treat ed proceeds a. part ..f your annual in - tomo. In other word., you dispose of your capital and treat the proceeds as part of your income for the year. The receipts for [brainiest lands fur last year amounted to r374,01.7, and /.very dollar of it was credited to annual revenue. Now it would not have been so had had the Government charged G. annual ex pendtture the expense of surveys and managing the Deminwn lands ; yet all the expenses of surveys, he , amounting Let year to $260,574, where charged to .apical acctunt, and by that fraudulent system of tw.okkeeptng they have lessen- ed the deficit by $269,347. That is not all. The Intercol 1 Railway is own eel by the Dominion • f Csuada The dr.bureements in connection with that railway last year amounted to 11.3.869. i.58; the receipts aotountel t.. $2,3533,- G4G, leaving a deficit of 81,506,910. What disposal did they make 44 that deficit 1 Every dollar is charged to capital account. I,et me tell you that $615,330 n made up •.f expense* for repairs, rolling stock, local expe•nsee,and prying damages obtained by parties spent* the railway. All thew it.•,us ere jest as much annual expenditure as any item can p,e.ibly he. And yet ..very dud lis of that *61h,330 is charged to capital amount, and thus again, by this (redo- lent system of ba..kkeeping, the deficit has peen lessened by that additional auto of $611,,330. Now, if y .0 add those three items to the depot admitted • 7 the Mail newgrper you will find ■n actual deficit of 04,242.347.

Therefore he was employed 'by the Government at the public et penile to prepare a defence to the honest ,claims of Ontario to the disputed tern. tory.
