The facts with regard to the Agree- ment fur the payment to the L t !Cosa Mining Company of $30,000 for moneys disbursed by thew, and of 10 per cent. of the amount whirl may be received in the future by the Goverument from the O'Brien Mine up to $100,000 are. roughly speaking, as follows: - Before this Government took office a great struggle took place between the Li 1{ose alining Company and the O'Brien Syndicate or combination. for certain mining properties. '1'he strag- gle was a very bitter one, and was fin- ally decided by the Department in fav- or of the 4 )'Brien people. When the present Government Came into office it was strongly urget upon theta by the La Rose people that the O'Brien people had procured their tit- les by fraud, and the fornier asserted their ability to prove this in the Courts, and to show beyond a doubt that the O'Brien leases were based on fraud. They declared that they had already a large amount of evidence in support of their contentions, and wish- ed the Government to grant them a flat in order that they might open up a new fight with the O'Briens in the Courts. In the end, the Government decided to set the matter at rest by taking legal proceedings, claiming the land for the Crown. The evidence collected by the La Rose people was placed at the disposal of the Government. The case ofp the Government was practically carried on by the La Rose people. The end of it all was, that an offer was made by the O'Brien people to the Government to pay the latter 25 per cent. of the proceeds of the twine at the pit's mouth in perpetuity in full settlement. After careful consideration by the solicitors for the Government, and by others called in for that purpose. it was decided to accept this offer. The question then arose, what were the Ia Rose people to receive for the part they had taken and the evidence furnished by them iu the litigation? The Government always admitted that it would deal fairly with the La Rose people on this point, and, after consid- eration, it decided to pay them the $30,000 which they bad disbursed and to pay them also 10 per cent. of what they might receive in the future from the mine, up to the sum of $100,000. This was a very favorable settle- ment on the part of the Government, the La hose people claiming that they should be paid at. least $1350,004) and be- ing .luite dissatisfied with the settle- ment. tin far, the Government has receiv- ed as royalty front the O'Brien urine about $210,000, not one dollar of which would have been received had not the Government taken the bold stand in defence of the rights of the Province. And no good citizen will suggest that proper remuneration should not be given for the evidence and assistance received by the Govern- ment in this very remarkable litiga- tion without which evidence and assis- tance there would have been no chance of success. The electors will not forget that un- der the Whitney Government a set of reading books for schools was reduced in price from $130 to 1(k. 1 For the Children NEURON*.
