One mill on every dollar of assessable property in the Province ei Ontario is the war tax the people will be asked to pay to meet government contributions for patriotic purposes and the falling off in provincial revenues. The government's proposal was made in the legislature Monday afternoon by Hon. T. W. McGarry, provincial treas- urer, during the presentation of his budget speech. The Treasurer an- nounced that the new tax, legislation for which would be presented in the next few days, would yield an estimated revenue of I,Se10,000, the assessed value of property, in the province being placed at $1,00,000,000. Hon. Mr. McGarry • explained the method of collecting the new revenue. "The tax will be levied against the property in cities and towns separated from the counties for municipal pur- poses and they will collect them for us. In the counties other than in the separated districts referred to the tax will be made by the county upon an equalized assessment and the tax col- lected as part of the county rate and paid over to the provincial treasurer." Mr. McGarry added that although this money would -not be received until next fall he intended to take power by legislation this session to borrow against it to the extent of one or two millions. SECOND WEEK IN LEGISLATURE. A HUGE DEFICIT For the first time since the Conser- vative Government has been in power in Ontario they admit a deficit. For several years the Opposition has claim- ed that ordinary book-keeping would reveal not the alleged surplus but a balance on the wrong side. This year the Government admits it but whereas they place the figures at about $700,000, the Opposition claims that the total is about $4,000,000 Moreover the Liber- als object to the Government contention that the deficit arises largely from the war and point to the Treasurer's figures showing less than $300,000 expended on war contributions. The Opposition points out that one item in the current receipts amounting to over $500,000 is openly disowned in the Government statement by the auditor himself who appends a note refusing to take respon- sibility for the item. '`his, therefore, makes the Government deficit admitted- ly S1,200.00'0, The rest of the deficit which the Opposition would raise from $1,200,000 to nearly $4,000,000 comes from items charged to capital account which ten years ago used to be charged to current revenue and which the Op- pesition claims should still be so credited. It is noticeable in the House and in the press that the Government and its supporters are bard pressed to The third meeting of the Whitechurch and plausible reasons for the huge de- Literary Society, which was held in the Licit which they have piled up.

Mr. Johnson was answered by Hugh Munro, Liberal member for Glengarry, who as a business man told how his business and the efficiency of his men had been interfered with by the liquor traffic, and how his business had proved with the doing away of the traffic in his town. Major Tolmie de- fended the patriotism of the ministers, who, true to their conviction at what- ever -cost, had spoken at the general election against the liquor traffic. NOTES. On the suggestion of Mr. Rowell, a cable of praise and good cheer was sent by the Legislature to the Ontario Bri- gade upon the occasion of their first experience in the trenches. The Provincial Treasurer made a slashing attack on those insurance com- panies who had refused to pay the in- creased tax placed on life insurance premiums last year. The companies affected have made a vigorous reply. The Moratorium Bill was given its second reading. Mr. Rowell claimed that since it really was not a Morator- ium in the usually accepted, broad meaning of that term, the name of the Bill should be changed. The matter will be up again. The Nickel question is still under con- sideration. C. R. McKeown, M.P.P. forDufferin, is the new Conservative Whip. 11 .: herty Rocavl;ee Sa-t, . says: •'I sut;t'red for years w:t•t what the doctors ealleJ nervous prostration fad sith hea d - :.•ho.

I tried four different- do .tars at !times, and not only tee'-, bottles of :medicine, but quarts o it, but to no • avail. Then I quit tali t' medicine al- together and tried diet ig, but it made no difference, J was s 11 an agonizing sufferer. Finally in . tusband urged me to try Dr. 'Willi. ms' 'ink Pills and got me a supply. er taking the Pills for some weeks elt a little better and Igladly continued their use. My nerves began to feel stronger, the terrible headache came with less frequency, and after taking the Pills for some months disappeared altogether. From that day to this I have had no return of the trouble, and all who knew of my illness regarded i y cure as marvellous, I cannot say too much in praise of the Pills as they certainly saved me from a life of almost constant agony." It is by building up and enriching the blood and strengthening the nerves that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills work seeming- ly marvellous cures, and what they have done for others they will do for all ailing people if given a fair trial. If you do not find these Pills at your medicine dealers you can get them by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.40 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brock- ville, Out. Why Not Ordinary Postage Stamps. The proposed collection of the new special Dominion taxes by means of stamps labelled "War Tax" is rank hypocrisy in the first place, and the creation of laborious, inconvenient and unnecessary tax collection machinery in the second place. The idea of the stamp labelled 'eWar Tax" is, of course, a childish endeavour to mislead the people when they buy such a stamp. They will be supposed pre- sumably to pat themselves on the back, swell out their chests and say: "There goes my mite to help defeat the Kaiser." It is as We have said, sheer hypocrisy, because none of the money will go to the undoing of the enemy, and all of it toward the meeting of or- dinary expenses of the Government apart altogether from the war. There seems no reason why ordinary postal stamps should not be used as in England for the special revenue taxes. To be compelled to fix two stamps to every Ietter or postcard, one a postal stamp and the other an inland revenue stamp, will be both inconvenient and unneces- sary. The only excuse for such a plan can be the Government belief that the people can be hoed -winked into consid- ering these special taxes as "War Taxes" when they are only the old taxes in different disguise. -[Ottawa Free Press. wHITECREECR A share of Scar patronage solicited, Robt.
