A M1-..Pattullo of North Oxford, the`- ` ' bitious editor of The Sentinel"-Rc- _ few, attempted to raise the popssi--0 ilities_ of" his cabinet corporation several points by a. rathernaggressive ntinuation of the debate.

The leader of the: Opposition speaks of the spectre" of direct taxa- tion. _ ' 0 T .V 0 .Mr. Whitney-I did speak otthe spectre; I now speak of -the burden `of direct taxation. - - . Mr. Pattullo affirmed that the Gov- ernment did not raise one cent by direct taxation, and exhibited some courage by, in the next few sentences, defending the direct taxation of the people by the Ross `Government, 'throu'gh taxes on companies. by say- ing that such taxationeonly touched a small percentage of the people, and was popular with the masses. Mr. Pattullo locked horns with C01. Matheson by twitting the member" for `North Lanark with being a false prophet, for having predicted a de- ecit at. the beginning of 1897, which was shown by the Provincial Treas- urer's statement in 1898to" have `been entirely fallacious. Col. Matheson---At the beg-;inni-ng of that year 1 _estimated_ the decit would be $392,000. At the end I pointed out that the decit. vcaa over $400,000.

It was a pity, he continued, that the Government were drifting, back to the old story about`a surplus, for the Provincial Treasurer took the stand that there was a surplus when the commission said this was all nonsense. i I-A\.rVVIub IJJ VIII) avnovavsaavnn II`-V`-l\l|.1nvIJI For many years it was utterly im- possible for one to take up the pub- lic accounts and fully understand them, and after a. time the Govern- ment .adopted the suggestion tha.tI{ cameefrom thcopposition side of-the' House in connection with them.
