Those of our neighbors who so loud- ly complain about the anti -alien bill of the British Columbia Legislature would come into court in a more favor- able light if tbey first removed the anti -alien bills from their own State statutes. The British Columbia Legis- lature are only taking a leaf from the statutebooks of several a their own States. In several of the Weetern States foreigners are not allowed to hold placer mining claims. It requires a large amount of cheek to find fault with Canadians following their Own example.

We gathered in 8700,000 more than the Treasurer esti- mated in 1807. So it is not fair to com- pare the receipts in 1898 with the rev- enue of the previous year. In 1896 the Crown lands receipts were only $080,000. Last year they were $1,100,000 or $200,000 more. In 1805 these receipts were 8947,000 or $150,000 lesa than in 1808. EVen in 3804 the receipts were ti�t as large as those of 1808, beitig $1-,' 057,000 as compared with $1,100,000. The diminishing Crown lands receipts annet be urged as a jostifitation for taxaton. The real reaSOtt is that the growth of the expenditure has beets so mach in exeess of the growth of the revenue that sve have been anoning be- hind at the rate of $500,000 a year, and ie now becomes necessary, if the peo- Mee lo 110t, to 'run up a very large ebt, that increased taaation should be id on. -Col.
