The Lat{rier Governmenttook of- ce in I896. In tex; years they took fnrorinethe people. in -tkaxatio-n through th Customs and Excisedepaftments $142,398,430 more than would have been paiid onethe basis of 1896.

Expenditure on the Grand` Trunk Pacic had` only beguh in 1906.9 the town will receive its deserts ac-V` cording to the necessities of the case. More than that they cannot expect, and more than that we "are certain they do not want. ` - When the Liberal Conservatives were _.in oice, Sir Wilfrid Laurier and his present colleagues were great- ly distressed over the national debt and the increasing `obligations of the country. ` ` ' In the six years preceding I896.the increase had been less t'han'$2I_,ooo,- 000,- and the Government in that time madeireductions in taxes relieving the" people of burdens to the extent of $21,870,000. At the- time of the change of gov-I ernment the net debt was-. $258,497,-` 432. The increase in the previous ten years had` been $31,000,000, or $3,roo,ooo a year. ' ' Had these taxes been retained the debt would have` been less in 1896,` when the Coiaservatives `left office, than it was in 1890. THE NATIONAL DEBT.
