In connection with the diseussion of the Provincial Land Tax there has been considerable attention given the matter in The New Liskeard Speaker and The Poreupine Advance. Each paper has followed the comments in the other with the idea of giving all phases of the matter and having it fully understood. In the last isâ€" sue of The Advance there was a letter from Mrs. Anderson of Krugersdort, which The Advance reproduces here in full, as follows :â€" To the Editor of The Speaker, New Liskeard. The Speaker, New Liskeard. Dear Sir:â€"I agree with Mr. Benâ€" nett that the Editor does not perhaps altogether understand the Provincial Land Tax Act. Perhaps you have not read it. At least you omitted to say that there were a list of exemptions, first of which is the "‘"Interest of a Timber Licensee.‘*‘ Now, most of the large pulp companies hold limits leasâ€" ed from the Government, so how can the Act affect them? Nowhere in the Act does it state that the money will be used for roads, We must have roads, they are the first essential for the building up and prosperity of the county. But instead of inflicting on bonaâ€"fide settlers the need for filling out forms, and paying railroad fare to go to the nearest clergyman or J.P. to have them attested, why not enâ€" force instead paragraph 4, section 3 of the Act which says **There shall be ‘©Our object in referring to the Proâ€" vincial Land Tax was to remove the impression which obtained that the Act was passed for the purpose of coercing settlers in unorganized townâ€" ships to organize. _ We believe we succeeded in doing this inasmuch as we have shown that bonaâ€"fide settlers in unorganized townships who comâ€" ply with a regulation which it is not at all difficult to comply with, are asâ€" sured of exemption. ‘‘On consulting Mr. D. J. Miller, District Engineer, we find that in Temiskaming the unorganized townâ€" ships are divided into two classes. There are those who take advantage of what is called the ‘‘Statute Labour Act,"‘ and elect Commissioners for the purpose of administering it in such townships. There are other townships which have sufficient popuâ€" lation, but which do nothing on the roads unless some settler on his own initiative does some work. ‘‘Of course, in the townships havyâ€" ing. statute labour organization taxes are collected or the equivaltent in work is accepted, for road purposes, and we believe the (Government exâ€" pends dollar for dollar as a rule, but this is not a statutory grant. Mr. H. this is not a statutory grant. Mr. H. Bennett who wrote the letter referred to by Mrs. Anderson, lives in a townâ€" ship which has adopted statute labour organization. _ We confess we did not know about this statute labour orâ€" ganization at the time we wrote our article on the Provincial Land Tax, but it does not affeet that we said as to the exemption of bonaâ€"fide settlers from taxation in unorganized townâ€" ships. 4 L x/# ‘‘Now, in order that a lady may have the last word, we shall allow some other matters referred to by Mrs. Anderson to pass in the hope that enough has been said in regard to the Provincial Land Tax, and that there will be no further correspondâ€" ence in regard to it. The discussion is closed."‘‘ CENTRAL GROUP SCHEDULE or THE N.: H.
