Wale not being fairly put. In the exhauet.
ire statement of the Provincial Secretary
On A previews ocosceion, it was made clear
that the Government already purchased a
large proportion et the supplies by tender.
Mr, Crawford replied,ineking his maiden
speoth in the Rouse. There had been strong
reference to alleged onfairnese in moving
the present emendment as a °etch vote,but
he dtd not think anyone could complain of
having been taken unawares on this guess,
tion, which bad heen widely discussed in
the past.
Mr. German said that, as a prineiple, he
agreed with is ystem of tender, but there
watitno evidence that any euppliee were
bought in any other way wltich weuld be
more economically obtained by tender.
Mr. Ross'Irtoved the adjournment of the
debate.
OOVORNAIBST 110USE.
Mr. Haycock moved :--
" Thit in the opinion of this Houee the
maintenance of Government House and the
establishment connected therewith at the
expense of the province should, after the
expiration of five years from the appoint-
ment or other earlier determination of the
term of office of his Honor, the present
Lieutanant•Government, be discontinued."
In introduoing the motion he said he did
so believing the.t they had in this country
too expensive a system of Government
machinery. He had in his dolt is statement
of the cost of Government House to the
country since Confederation, on which he
could not at that moment lay his hand; he
thought, howeventhat the amount was in
the neighborhood. of $300,000 for the
maintenance of Government House in Tor-
onto. The most useful functions, so far
as he could learn, of the Lieutenant.Gover.
ncr consisted in his attaching his signature
to the legislation that passed the House,
and opening and closing the Legislature.
In other colonies action had been taken in
is similar direction. In Tasmania abi1l had
been passed reducing the salary of alio
Governor from $5,000 to $3,500. The
Victoria Legislature had passed a meas-
ure to reduce the salary of the Gov -
error at, the expiration of his term from
£10,000 to £5,000. .This Legislature
could make no change in the salary of the
Lieutenant-Governor—he wished it could
--but he declared that in view of the pres-
ent depressed condition of the ceentry
the time had come to apply the pruning -
knife to all unnecessary expenditures, and
reduce as far as possible the cost of the
machinery of government. And I say, sir,
while we have so much need of money for
the benefit of the poor, the sick, and the
afflicted in all ways, that it does not be-
come us to vote away the people's money
for the maintenance of any such luxury as
that we are now discussing. I do -nob see
how we can do it and go back to our people
honestly and say we have made the beat
use of the money they have entrusted
to us.
DEER PROTECTION. ,
Mr. Barr asked :—" Whether it is the
intention of the Government to introduce,
during the present session, legislation
amending the Ontario Game Protection
Act, by changing and shortening the opp
season for deer, and by restricting the use
of dogs in deer hunting ?"
Mr. Gibson (Hamilton) replied that it
was evident from the number of petitions
sent in that change of the open season to
between Oct. 201h and Nov. lfith, made
two or three years ago, had not been, in the
opinions of many who knew, in the inter-
ests of deer protection. The Government
was now considering the advisits'dlity of
reverting to the former period, '11"'eriely
between Nov. let and Nov. 15th. )iNth
regard to the use of dogs, he could not
say that the Government would consider
the point this session.
GRANTS TO COUNTY COUNCILS.
Mr. Little asked:—"How many County
Councils in the province have accepted the
Mier of a grant of $4,000 from the Govern-
ment to the province towards erecting
houses of refuge for the poor in their
respective counties. The names of the
counties, if any, that have accepted the
grant. Are the houses of refuge, so es-
tablished, under Government inspection,
and, if so, are the reports which are fur-
nished the Government satisfactory, and in
favor of this system of maintaining the
poor?"
Mr. Gibson (Hamilton) replied that
following counties were now in receipt of
the grant, having complied with the.
conditionsi—Wellington, York, Brant,
Lincoln Norfolk, Waterloo, Middlesex,
Welland, Elgin, and Oxford. The following
were now erecting buildings and acquiring
properties with a view to complying with
the conditions of the grant:—Huron,
Haldimand, Lambton, Leeds, Grenville.
The Institutions were under the super-
vision of the Government only to the
extent of inspecting them to ascertain
wheeher or not they were entitled to the
grant.
SUPPLIES FOR INSTITUTIONS.
Mr. Marter then moved :--
" That in the opiuion of this House it is
advieable, and would be in the interest of
the province, that supplies that may be
required for the publics institutions should
be supplied by public competition in lieu
of the course at present carried out."
Mr. IVIarter admitted that there had been
much discussion in regard to this matter,
but the facts were still as strong as ever.
The EOM% had been told that the sum of
$82,000 represented the amoune of goods
that were not tendered for, but he found
on referring to the publics accounte that
$88,000 worth of goods were bought for
the industries of the Central prieon without
competition. He condemned the system
of buying from our friends," in round
terms, and pointed out that although the
government seemed to regard the purchase'
of supplies as a matter in which they might
compensate their political friends for their
support, the money belonged to the people
as a whole, and should be economically
expended,.
Mr. Gibson, in reply, said he would not
detain the House long, as he had given is
reply to the statements advanced on is pre-
vious occasion. So far as the supplies for
the Central prison were concerned they wer
doing better than they could under the sys-
tem of advertising for supplio at the be.
ginning of each year. ,.The plan pursued
was to buy the -best article at the lowest
possible price. The Government invited
any criticism that the Opposition might de-
sire to make with respect to this matter,
and the leader of the Opposition was at
liberty to conduct an investigation in the
Public Accounts Committee durmg the
whole period of the' session.
Mr. Matheson pointed oiit that no leo is
sum than $60,00 was expended in the
purchase of meat without tender for public
institutions. As illustrating how the' non-
tender operated, he cited sthe cases of a
number of Kingston tradesmen who voted
against Mr. Harty in june,but were silenc.
ed from opposition when the Commissioner
of Publics Works again ran by being given
orders for furnishing supplies to the Gov.
ernment.
Mn McKay said it was a well known fact
that it was not the invariable custom of
outaide establishments to buy by tender.
Large wholesale houses in Toronto did not
adopt that method. He eondetnned the
Oppoeition for bringing forward a clap -trap
motion in order to secure the votes of new
inembere who were not thoroughlyinformed
on thin (motion.
Mr, Howland dispoled the assertion that
the motioi was one of a elap-trapoharaoler
and, further, he maintaited that the pros,
en b was a proper time for presenting euell
resolntion to the House. The queetion wee

Mat Stratton moved the sieeorid reading
of bill No. 92, to amend the Cemetery
Companies' AO. He briefly explained the
bill, wbich is for the purpose of rotting some
increased powers to such companies. The
motion- was carried.
T1IE SUPPLY DEBATE,
Mr. Cleland resumed the adjourned de-
bate on the amendmentSto the motion to go
into supply. He caused some amusement
by frankly admitting that it was to be
expected that any Government, Liberal or
Conservative, would favor ite own friends
as far as possible in purchasing goods,
Mr. Hardy followed, defending the Gova
ernmeotagainet the charge of having unduly
favored its own friends. He charged Mr.
Marter with having made false comparisons
in the statement which he had used on the
floor of the Howse as to the prices of various
eupplies furnished in Toronto and at
Kingston. There was not a single compari-
son made by the hon. gentleman that was
substantiated by facts.
Mr, Marler -1 am not comparing prices
between Megaton penitentiary and Tor-
onto, but between goods bought for the
penitentiary and goods bought in King-
ston by you.
Mr. Raydook did not himself think the
tender system was as much ueed as it
might be. The Patron party in the House
was not is unit on the question, but he in-
tended to vote for the amendment.
A divieion was then taken on the amend-
ment resulting in its defeat, on is vote of
33 yeas and 49 nays,.
The House went into Committee of Sup -
On the item of $175,480 for miscellaneous

nature of the work in which they weroy
engaged, it was decided to bear the cost of
accident insurance policiee for the detecst
tives. A sinn of $105 was therefore place..
in thesestimates for this purpose.
The item passed.
On the item of 67,000 for the Ontario
School of Pedagogy,
Mr. Matheson stated that the view
entertained by a number of teachers was
that the school was yielding an inadequate
return for the money spent upon it.
Mr. Ross defended the naefulness of the
school, and pointed to the attention given
to similar institutions in the United States
and Germany to illustrate the importance
of the work carried on.
The item passed.
Sir Oliver Mowat said the subject which
the bon. gentleman had brought before the
House was an important one, and no doubt
had been very carefully considered. It was
really quite possible and probable that
some modification might be found practi-
cable which would give the hon. member
and those who agreed with his views all
that they desired, and at the same time
that the advantages which Government
house afforded shohld, be retained. It
must be borne ininkiiinedk,that the Lieut. -
Governor was the,erepresentative of the
Queen, and our system of government
required that the Chief Executive officer
bhould occupy that position. Rtsference had
been made to depression that prevailed.
That depression, he believed, would only
be temporary. He hoped uncler the cir-
cumstances the hon. member would accept
his suggestion, which was that they should
appoint a committee for the purpose of
putting todpther the facts in regard to this
matter. Take the matter of the title to
the Government house property. It was
given to the province originally, not
absolutely, but as a- site for the house, and
upon condition that the Dominion ehould
be relieved from its maintenance. This
property was a very valuable one, and
when the preeent depression passed
away, which he hoped would be before
the term of the present Lieut. -Gov.
ernor, it would be worth $300,000, and
perhaps more. The suggestion had beeu
made that they should get the consent of
the Dominion authorities to the sale of the
property, which would afford a sufficient
return to permit of the erection, near the
Parliament buildings, of a building for the
Lieut.-Gevernor sufficiently large to permit
of the performance of the duties of: his
office. The amount derived from the 'sale
would cover the cost of this, and afford a
balance, the interest of which would go a
certain distance towards making a provision
for any expenditure by the province in this
direction. He did not regard the matter
as a party question, a,nd he did not want to
vote against the motion, but he withed, in
view of the importance of the subject, that
is committee should take this matter up,
make a thorough enquiry, and report their
conclusion to the House. He therefore
moved that all matters relating tm Govern-
ment house and the question of the discon-
tinuance of themaintenance of Govetnment
house should lie referred to a committee
consisting of M.essrs. Dryden, Bronson,
Stratton, Ferguson,. McNish, Marten
Whitney, Howland, laycock, Ms:Pherson;
and the mover, to report thereon.
Mr. Meader said it would be within the
memory of the older members of the House
that sorne seven years ago he introduced a
resolution similar to that moved by the
member for Frontenao. Ask:that tune the
vote in fie- favor was Is small one. He
could not do aught but vote in favor en

Mr. Hardy observed that the question
should not be made a party one. It was
properly outside the sphere of party poli.
tis, The course suggested by the Attor-
ney -General was a reasonable mee. He
appealed most confidently to every fair-
nunded member of the House that in is
delicate matter of thie kind they should
not vote blindly, but Wait and see just
exactly what course was the best to pursue.
The question was then put by Mr.
Speaker, and a division was taken on the
amendment of the lion. Attorney -General,

asylums for the insane develimed a rather
interesting discussion as to the mode of
treating the inmates, in which Messrs.
Meacham, Howland, mid others took part.
On the item of $17,030 for the maintenance
of the Ontario Reformatory for Boys,
Penetanguishene,
Mr. Matheson drew attention to the fact
that there had been an increase of $7,400
in the cost of salaries at the reformatory
since 1875, although the number of inmates
was practically about the same.
Mr. Gibson replied that the province had
benefited by any inorease that may have
taken place by the improvement in the
system pursued at the reformatory. He
would like any members of the House who
could spare the time to go up and visit the
institu don.
The item passed.

LOCOMOTIVE BOILER BURSTS.

Wrecked while Running.
A despatch from Hari isburg,Pa., says:—
The boiler of the locomotive on the Pacific
Express, west bound, on the Pennsylvania
Railroai, exploded while the train was
running at the usual rate of speed, eleven
miles west off Harrisburg. The force of the
explosion turned the engine completely
around and the mail and baggage oars were
derailed. John H. Pefliey, fireman, was
blown fifty feet in the air and died a few
minutes later. John A. Funk of this city,
the engineer, was seriously hurt, but will
recover. He was brought to the hospital
here.
The engineer says lie cannot account for
the accident, but thought some cold water
might have accidentally entered the boiler.
The roundhouse men -say the engine was
turned out in good condition, At the time
of the accident there was 160 pounds of
steam pressure and the boiler was about
two-thirds full sof water. Old railroaders
think Funk allowed the water in the boiler

What will touch the mother heart
more deeply than the illness of her
little ones ? She may suffer much
herself, and women are sorely afflicted
with many ills, but she will endure
all this, however often, without a
murmur; but there, can be no dis-
guising her anxiety when the little
ones of the home are stricken down
with sickness. And how many puny
children there are! We talk of the
bloom of youth, but thousands of
children know not of it. Others may
romp, but they are weaklings.
Mothers, woulcl you have your
loved ones strong and healthy?
Would you enjoy good health your-
self 1 Then use South American
Nervine Tonic; there is no doubting
its efficacious properties. Investigate
from is scientific or a common' sense
point of view and you will find‘ that
nearly all disease has its start in the
nerve centres of the body.
, The mission of South American
Nervine is to at once reach the nerve
centres, which are to the whole body
what the mainspring of the watch is
to every other part of the timepiece.
Science has made perfectly clear that
the troubles that affect the individual
organs of the body, nave their seat in
these nerve centre; so, without any
wasteful experimenting, South Amer-
ican Nervine reaches out -to the seat
of the difficulty, and straighteninft
out what is wrong there heals the
whole body. Listen to what Mrs.
H: Russell, Wingate, writes on this
point : "1 have used. several bottles
of South American Nervine- Tonic,
and will say, 1 consider it the best
medicine in the world. I believe it
saved the lives of two of my children.
They were down, and nothing ap
peered to do them any good natil I
procured this remedy. It was very
surprising how rapidly both improved
on its use. I don't allow myself to
be without some of it in my house.
I recommend the medicine to all
my neighbors.'! It will certainly
grant new life to all who are delicate,
whether:going, naiddle-aged, or old.
Do not worry along with ill health,
but dispel it, and brighten your lives
by the immediate use of South Amex'.
