Government+ Extravagance.
Effective, specific instances of the
extravagance of the present Ontario
Government were given by Joseph
Ilam, Liberal member for South Er,tnt
in the course of hie maiden speech,
,.The men," be prefaced his remarks
by saying, " who o ere entrusted with
the responsibility of handling the Pro
vincial finances during the years when
money was plentiful, did not see to it
that a full dollar's worth of value was
obtained for every dollar expended.
They did not, like wise business men,
lay a little aside every year for a time
of stress. The result to day is an emp
Sy Treasury and a deficit. At the very
tame when the people of Ontario are
hard enough pressed for money
even ae it ie, the Government levies
an extra tax upon them. I am as
anxious as anyone that the Allies
should receive the fullest support from
Ontario, but if the Government had
administered the finances of the Prov
ince in a careful way, it would have
had sufficient money to day to make
all necessary grants without levying
this special tax of one mill on the
dollar.'
The three items of expenditure es
pecially objected to by Mr. Ham (1)
The cost of Civil Government, (2) The
cost of the Prison Farm at Guelph,
especially the cow stables, and (3) The
cost of Government House.
The population of Ontario in the
last ten years' has increased about 15.
58 per cent the cost of. Civil Govern
went in the same period has increased
120 per cent. Even if the Government.
had been justified in an increase of 50
per cent there is still a difference be
tween that and the actual 120 per cent
increase on this one item alone of
$2,000,000—wasted.
At the prison farm there bad been a
capital expenditure of $10,000 for every
five prisoners lodged there. "Is it
quite fair that this amount' should be
spent on prisoners' when very few
farmers or working men in the Prow
ince have •farms or homes worth any
thing like 816,000 for themselves and
their families "asked Mr. Ham, who
also objected to the fact that at the
new cow shed at the prison farm the
cost per stall for each cow was 9300,
whereas Mr Ram said good accornmo
dation could have been provided for
8100 a cow at the very most.
se In regard so Government. House,,
Mr,. Ham pointed out that even on a
basis of the cost of$1,000,000, which
would probably be exceeded before
the building was completed, ; this
would have provided 200 farms at
its is
9. apiece.
"All this extravagance," concluded
Mr, Ram, "isat the very time when
many of ou people are forced to; live
only on b, and potatoes,"
"The zig stag path is often the hest"
was one of the disappointing remarks
made by Mr. Hearst, showing an
admitted lack of directness in his de
site to deal with the request of the
deputation, AR if this remark was not
enopgh, the Prime Minister empha
sized itstill further by saying that
"a frontal attack is not always the
best.''
Hon. Me. Bann% was equally dis
appointing to the temperance people
The furthest he would go was to say
that they would not find this Govern
ment behind the previous Govern
ment in its dealings with the liquor
traffic. What the temperance people
asked for, of course, was a policy
much:in advance of that given by the
Government of Sir James Whitney on
this particular point."

Toronto Saturday Night this week
discusses the question of newspaper
subscription cites in an intelligent
and comprehensive manner. It says:
The tendency among newspaper
owners to increase the selling prine of
puhlica ions to soinethingapproximat-
ing ,,he cost of production is becoming
more apparent, and it would not be
surprising it, to one of the indirect
results of this cant the cent morning
or evening newspapers, which are now
almost universal in Eastern Oanada,
gave place to the two.rent paper, or
even sold rat three or five cents, A
tendency, in this direction has already
token place in Canada, for large metro
pniitan newspapers are no logger sold
at the ruinous price of one dollar per
to points outside the home city or
province as the case may be. These
papers have now advanced their oat
of -Lown subscription price to two doll•
ars per year which is yet too low by
11,11!. Compare such pricos with that
of the New York Evening Post, which
sells at 1 heee cents per copy, or ten
dollars pee yeitr,
ses e roamer of fart, Canadians are
obtaining their newspapers at prices
far cheaper, on the nventa ., than any
other country where the English lam
gunge is spoken and printed. The war
hss brought this forcibly home to Can
+than publishers, who for many years
have depen"ed upon the advertiser to
make up the enormous deficits in the
printing account. The absurdity of
such sp'iC9. 1(8 010 cent for an eigh-
teen, twenty-four or thirty-six page
daily must be apparent to even the
leyma.n. Take away from the cant
paid for the paper the four or five
cents per dozen which represents the
newsboys' profits, and the sum ea -
meaning is. Tess—and in the larger
papers far lees -than the first cost of
white paper at the mills, not to speak
of ink, press work, compositors, staff
expenses and overhead chargee.
What is' the result? The newspaper
is dependent—wholly dependent—on
the advertiser, or worse yet, is likely
to fall under the dit ection or dictation,
not necessarily known to the public,
of interests, political or financial, an--
tagonietic to the general welfare. In
other words, the present situation
endangers the great principles of
democracy, threatens fres speech, and
is a menace to free and independent
comment.
The newspaper8 of this country
must sooner or later face the problem.
It is one which would have come to
them, war or no war. It would have
presented itself with any depression in
trade—the war merely added some-
thing in the way of greater cost and
loss of advertising to the publishers'
troubles and precipitating the.diilicul
tie.,
If any -publication, daily, weekly' or
monthly, is north having and worth.
reading it is certainly worth the cost
of production, without thought to its
advertising patronage.

When the bowels become constipated
the stomach gets out of order, the liver

the violent sick headaches, the sourness

anything.
