KILLED A -WILD CAT.
Alva Stockton, of Ilte 8th of Minto
in W.ollington ,near this Ilowick lreun-
elary, had an exciting experience last
Sunday morning. On Saturday night
a wild cat got into his goosa house.
On Sunday morning Mr. Stockton's
little six-year-old boy went out to
feed the geese and found two of them
killed by' the wild eat, that animal be-
ing still in the corner of the goose -
house. Its glaring eyes and fierce
main frightened the little:, fellow, so
he ran for his father. He thought at
fast to demolish the animal with a
pitchfork, but lie soon found that
,dange.rcus, if not impossible, and ran
to the house for a, double-barrelled
shot gun. When het returned the wi19
cat was making off over the f e.d. Mr.
Stockton, followed the beast, which
halted as soon as it naw; him coming
and showed figth. Getting as near
as he thought safe, just as the ord-
inal was preparing to spring on him,
Mr. Stockton emptied both barrels of
the gun into its face and killed it
instantly. It is large and glossy, and
Me. Stockton intends to have it stuff-
ed. These animals are rare now in
these Parts.
The fair sex should remember that
food and flattery is a combination calcu-
lated to open the average masculine

$2,941,398 en Jan 1,
Toronto, Feb. 10. Premier Rosa,
in a speech that lasted for two hours
in the Legislature yesterday after-
noon, gave a very complete and in-
teresting survey of the financial con-
dition of the Province. His subjects
were well arranged, and his figures
were mar'tialled in forceful style. He
showed that the long -predicted deficit
in the Ontario treasury is still afar
off, and gave striking evidence of
Provincial prosperity. Ile dealt at
length with the Tomiskatning Rail-
way construction and its financing,
and proved that it had been built
with exceptional economy and judi-
cious management. The extension of
this line and other works projected
wero referred to in order to show
that the Ministry was not sitting in
idleness. He devoted some attention
to the trust funds dispute with the
Dominion Government, and declared
that the rights of the Province would
be enforced. Col. Matheson, who fol-
lowed, contended that instead of
the surplus there was an actual de-
ficit on the year's transactions of
$621,000. Mr. .7. R. Pease moved
the adjournment.
The Premier's Speech.
The Premier at the outset stated
that ho would endeavor to give a
complete survey of the expenditure
and revenue of last year, the propos-
ed expenditure Sor this year, and then
discuss various aspects of the finan-
cial question. They began the year
1903 with a bank balance, after hav-
ing paid off the maturing obligation
of the Province, of $1,415,510, and
they had closed the year with a
cash balance of $1,994,679, having
improved the bank balance in tho
meantime by $579,168. In January,
1903, the surplus of assets over
liabilities was $1,939,262, and at
the end of the year that surplus
showed an increase of $609,901.
Now that surplus was $3,551,300,
the cash balance in the bank on Feb-
ruary 9th being $2,941,398.
Increased Expenditure,
"Tho expenditure for the year just
closed was considerably larger than
the expenditure for any previous
year in the history of the Province.
I do not know whether this may not
be the subject of criticism. However,
the fact remains that the increased
demand upon tho treasury for the de-
velopment of the country and in
connection with all the interests
which the Government are bound to
protect, will suggest that possibly
our expenditure will be much more
easily increased ed tian it will
bo re-
duced, or even curtailed. The aver-
age expenditure for the last six
years was $4,131,000, while the ac-
tual expenditure for last year was
$4,888,982. Two points had to be
considered, however, in giving this
summary of the actual expenditure.
Firstly, that in two of the six
years I have mentioned, instead of
paying our railway certificates when
they became due, we issued annuities
and so carried them to the credit ac-
count of the Province instead of
charging them up against actual ex-
penditure. For the last four years
we have paid certificate and annuity
and every other obligation as they
became due, so that when the year
was closed on December 31st last
there was no matured or maturing
obligation of the Province that had
not been discharged." The Premier
showed that the sugar -beet bounty
had taken, in round figures, $75,-
000;
75;000; the iron bounty, the appropria-
tion for which would probably be
exhapsted • this year, $25,000; rail-
ways, $230,000; good roads, $23,-
000;
23;000; University and Mining School,
$8,400, all of these being statu-
'tor•y liabilities, while the common
school fund accounted fos $,10,000, a
total of $.437,000. So that the nor-
mal and ordinary expenditure was
about $137,000.
The' increase in the cost of civil
Government of $41,000 was more ap-
parent than real.
Cost of Education.
Education also showed a very large
increase, namely, $1.40,111. A larg-
er grant had been necessary for high
schools owing to the establishment
of new schools. A large vote was
now taken for technical education,
a new department organized in the
interests of the artisan and those
who were dependent particularly up-
on skill in manual labor. There had
been also large increases for the
University and School of Science; in
fact the increase in education cover-
ed the whole range of popular edu-
cation, from the kindergarten to the
university, including public schools
and normal schools, of which they
had one more now at London than
they had a few years ago. There had
been a moderate increase in the main-
tenance of public institutions of
$57,638 in a total of $02.3,037.,
Spent on the Farmer.
Iii agriculture ` there had been an
increase of $1.44,506, due in hart to
the transfer of certain items from
the miscellaneous account. The total,
expenditure was $378,8.0. More
than half the increase was the re -
suit of the contribution of $74,997
to the beet -sugar industry. Then the
Eastern Dairy School got an ih-'
creased grant of $0,374, the expert.
Mental farm and feeding an increase
of $7,452, the experimental dairq
$9,672, while the new buildings i►t

largo items, " said the Premier, and
indicate a very large increase, but
it is in a direction which, I am cone
fident, the 'douse will approve and
support. Agriculture, lying as it
does at the foundation of our indus-
tries, requires constant attention, It.
is so varying in its forms, it is not
so one-sided as it used to be. and
wo have so many phases in agricul-
tural education now to consider
that we may naturally .expect—I
think very properly so—so far as
our resources will admit, to increase
the expenditure In this direction if
we are to maintain our position as
the first Province in the Dominion."
Tho Crown Lands Department drew
considerably on the reyenues, the in-
crease being $31,713. The necessity
for that increase was the opening up
of new townships along the Tomis-
kaming Railway and beyond New
Liskeard, About twenty-five town-
ships were 'surveyed last year, cov-
ering 532,714 acres. The demand
made for locations by the veterans
and the pressure of the settlers in
the northern district had necessitat-
ed that large expenditure. The de-
partment was asking for about as
large a sum for the current year.
I tritest Iterenne in History.
Turning to the revenue for 1903,
the Premier said it had been very
generous, thanks to the excellent
timber sale a few months ago. It
had totalled $5,466,683, the larg-
est revenue in the history of the
Province—(applause)—but not larger
than the wants of the public service
required. A few details of that
revenue would suffice. The interest
account amounted to $195,357—on
trust funds, assets held by the Do-
minion Government, $153,864, and
on balances in the bank of special
accounts, $41,493. "This source of
income, I have no doubt," said the
Premier, "is duly appreciated, show-
ing that the position of the Province
is ono of perfect solvency—lap-
plauso)—that our assets are produc-
tive, that they are living assets.
yielding us almost $200,000 of an
income per annum." He then gave
details in other departments which
wore equally gratifying.
No I. rate of Deficit.
Referring to the estimated revenue
of $5,384,372, about the same as
last year, the Premier said that they
were in the happy position of know-
ing that no sum voted by the House
would exceed the certain revenue.
"There is no fear of a deficit in our
income. Our revenue is secure. No
accident that can possibly happen
to the revenues of this Province
would create a deficit during the
current year."
Cost of 1'omiskamina Railway.
The Premier then referred briefly
to some of the projects which they
had on hand for the current year.
The largest work on hand was the
construction of the Temiskaming
Railway. After showing what pro-
gress had been made on that road,
De stated that the Commissioners
had informed hint that the probabil-
ities were that by October 1 trains
would be running regularly from
North Day to New Liskeard. Trains
were now running three times a
week front North Bay • t
mile, and from that point the v r 57
thee
end there was a stage line,
road had been constructed at a re-
markably low figure. The cost of
construction was estimatednt
at Syo:
000 per mile, while the equipment
would be in the neighborhood of
$5,000 per mile The Canada Atlan-
tic, 437 miles, cost $47,000 per mile,
and it was a much easier road, and
built when supplies were cheaper;
Canada Southern 373 miles, $85,-
510 per mile; Canadian Northern,
1.213 miles, $37,660; Canadian Pa-
cific, 3,838 miles, $52,100; Grand
Trunk, 3,157 miles, $105,800; Inter -
colonial, 1,333 miles, $51,000; Que-
bec & Lake St. John, 241 miles,
$58,100 per mile.
After referring to some minor pro-
jects, the Premier instanced in glow-
ing language the signs of prosperity
in Ontario, and closed with an elo-
quent peroration, resuming his seat
amid applause.
Col. 9ruthoson's view.
Coi. Matheson, who followed the
Premier, said that the House and the
people were anxious to know haw
the/ Province paid its way. Tho re-
ceipts for 1908 were given as $5,-
46(],652, and tie expenditures at $4,-
888,982, In addition to this the
Province had incurred a liability for
wages at the "Soo" to the extent
of about $250,000. The expenditure,
therefore, was about $,3,100,000. The
receipts of $5,'1103,6653 included re-
ceipts from the bonds and timber
sale of $1,335,000, and reduction of
drainage debentures by $21,000.
These two sums deducted from the
receipts gave $1,109,000, so that we
actually incurred liabilities of $1,-
00(1.000 more titan the ordinary re-
t•eipty. Receipts from Crown lands
should. lie considered as capital re-
ceipts, because they must constant-
ly be diminished. In ten or fifteen
sears that source would be reduced
to perhaps :,200,000. The .Ser pay-
ment and the expenditure for the
Normal Seheol anti the School of
tieicnce ntig;ht. be considered excep-
tional. Taking away these sums, the
ordinary expenditure was $4,780,--
(1(tlt. against receipts of $1,109,000,
hetet ing. a deficit of $021,000.

Tendency of the Times.
The tendency of medical science is to-
ward preventive measures. The best
thought of the world is being given to
the subject. It is easier and better to
prevent than to cure. It has been fully
demonstrated that pneumonia, one
of the most dangerous diseases that
medical men have to contend with, can
be prevented by the use of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. Pneumonia always
results from a cold or from an attack of
influenza (grip), and it has been observed
that this remedy counteracts any ten-
dency of these diseases toward
neumon-
i . This has been fully Pr ven in
many
of cases in which this remedy has been
used during the great prevalence of colds
and grip in recent years, and can be re-
lied upon with implicit confidence. '
Pneumonia often results from a slight
cold when no danger is apprehended un-
til it is suddenly discovered that there is
fever and difficulty in breathing and
pains in the chest. then it is announced .
that the patient has pneumonia. Ile on
the safe side and take Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy as soon as the cold is
contracted. It always enres. For sale
