he hoped that the Local G:>vernm<nt Bill would relieve the Government of seme of their work. He thought the Advances to Settlers Aot was working very badly, and he generally con demned the administration. He was not so sanguine as Mr Pirani was as to the beneficial effect of rating on un improved values. It would work very badly in towns.and would press severely on many struggling settlers. He spoke at some length on the land question, and expressed the hope that the Gov ernment would not. .. ake the Local Government Bill 01 Loo m'lical a char acter, and that the road board *ystrm would not be interferred with. He oould not compliment the Tariff Com missioners on the way they hai taken evidence. The Commissioners thought too much of a narrow policy of pro-, tection, and they had not gone into the country to see what the farmers had to say on the matter. In conclud- 1 ing he heartily congratulated the Gov ernment on the success attending their administration, and although he ob jected to several of the details, he warmly approved of the Government policy. Captain Russell said that it was really not necessary for him to attack the Government, as Mr Maslin had utterly condemned all the details of their policy, although he concluded ( by saying that they were a pretty good Government, and, therefore, he supported them. The whole of Mr Maslin's speech was a hostile criticism of the policy of the Government. Mr Maslin had found great fault with the Board under the Advances to Settlers Act, but he (Captainßussell) contended that if the Board"were to be subject to political influence, great harm would result to the colony. With respect to what had been said about rating on unimproved values he had no hesitation in saying that the effect of this Bill would be to make the poorer people suffer, and to let the rich man off. They were told in the Speech that the finances were most prosperous, but they were told exactly the same thing last year, and yet within one week after that the Bank of New Zealand affair was en them. The Speech mentioned that the depression was lifting, but, as a matter of fact, the depression was greater then ever in every branch of industry He combatted the statement that the native land question was in a most satisfactory position, and referred to the total silence of the Speech in regard to the Premier's memorable visit to Parihaka. He utterly deprecated sending an armed force through the Uriwera Country, and said that it would do far more to retard civilisation than to further it. Great kudos had been taken by the Government for the success of the Colonial Treasurer in floating the loan, but how, he asked, could the Government get credit for adding L-1,500,000 to the debt of the colony 1 He contended that there was no necessity for an additional Minister if they did their work as Ministers and not as stump orators. What, he asked, had Ministers been doing in the recess except Hying all over the colony? Mr Reeves was probably an exception, but I even he had spent a long tune in Aus tralia. He fully recognised that reform Was necessary in local self-government, and hoped that tjiey would be able to effect useful reform. As to the tariff question he had no doubt an attempt would be made to foist protection on the polony. He did not question the manner in which the Tariff Commission had done their duty, but after appoint ing that Commission and receiving their report they were now to be asked to agree to the appointment of a com mittee to undo all the work the Com mission had done. He hoped the Licensing Bill would be such as reason able men like himself could agree to. He would not refer to the Speech further than to give his opinion that the so called prosperity of the colony was fictitious, and that the colony wou'd never prosper till the Government practised prudence and economy. Mr W, P. Reeves wished to remove any impression that existed as to a great borrowing policy being contem plated, and declared that the Govern ment hapf no intention of going in for guph a pojicy. With respect to Captain Russell's reference to Mr Maslin, that gentleman was now what he had always been a fair supporter of the Govern ment, who did not want a slavish support from any member. It was an exaggeration to say that the colony was never in such a depressed state as at present. He (Mr Reeves) remem bered when times were very much worse, and when the unemployed difficulty was greater than at present. (Captain Russell : uWe had no debt and no taxation then.") He should like to know when they had no debt. (Gaptam " Russell : v Practically npne.") paptain' BUs^sll had stated that all he wanted to know' was the exact ' tri|th about the finances, bi^t he (Captain Russell) had dpclarqd at Ohristchurch that the Government had no surplus. (Captain Russell : *' You have not gut one now.") Why, even Sir Robert Stout had admitted that they had a surplus. Captain Russell had spoken about the grinding taxation the colony had suffered from, but he asked ho jv had he resisted the efforts made in 1890 to get the primage duty removed. The reason was because he was in office then, and wanted revenue. Mr Reeves went on to contradict the statements made by Mr Maslin in regard to the administra tion of the Advances to Settlers Act. He contended that the Government were justified in saying that there was undoubted room for the hope as to a better state of affairs in the colony. Mr Ward's trip Homo was a large factor in this improvement, He de fended the action of the Government with' respect toT the Uriwera natives, and said the circumstances justified it. He hoped that the House would give the ! Government every assistance in giving an alternative system of pub lic works a good trial, as he thought this was an excellent way of assisting J,be 'unemployed/ The Ciovernnient continuing relief wprks this year the same as last year, and although the season was not good, it was necessary owfng to the lacl? qf wqrk that had prevailed for the last two years. This was partly attributable to the action of a few landholders who had refused work to the men. As to the proposal to appoint an extn Minister he pointed out that the present Ministers ha|J to carry out a Liberal policy which La 3 seoeif&rily Involved a, large

m mount of work, He honesMy thought that the work vris too much for the present Ministers, a 1 d taking all the circumstances info c>:;sideration he thought that the request for another Minister was a reasonable one. The Government had not been in a hurry to make the request, and in the ordinary course of events their sue' cessors would get the most benefit of the innovation. He concluded by thanking the mover and seconder for the fair and sensible speeches they had made, and said that the criticism was likely to impmve the Liberal policy .uid not to destroy it. Mr Mills moved the adjournment of (he debate till Tuesday. The motion was agreed to, and the House rose at 10.40 p.m.

New South Wales Polities.

Sydney, June 20 During the debate in the Legislative Council on the Land and Income Tax Bill Sir J. E. Salmons suggested that the second reading should be adopted, and that the exemptions provided in the measure should be struck out in Committee.

The President ruled that it was im possible to amend the Bill in Com mittee, because it would have the effect of imposing taxation, which was beyond the powers of the Council. After a long and hostile debate., Mr McLanain's amendment—-" That the Bill be postponed for six months," was, on a division, carried by 41 to 4. Sydney, June 2)

Premier Reid will make a ministerial statement on Tuesday. It is believed Government will send the Land and Income Tax Bills iust passed in the House on to the Council, where doubt less they will be rejected, but will refrain from sending the Customs Bill, which has passed the Legislative Assembly, the usua' message forward ing the Bill having been omitted. This step was taken to save time, for if the Bill were now sent and rejected the Assembly would require to go over the wholb ground next session, where as under the present arrangement the Bill can be taken up where it was left off. Government will probably pass the Works Loan Bill, a short Electoral Amending Bill, and the Estimates, and then Parliament will be prorogued for the recess. If the Council rejects the taxation measures, then a Bill will be introduced to reform that chamber, and Government will appeal to the countty on that question, combined with free trade anc direct taxation.

Sydney, Jane 21 The Herald, commenting on the deadlock between the two Houses, says the Council must be brought in accord with the deliberate will of the people. Government, with the people at its back, have ample powers for exciting the popular mandate, and it is thpir duty to see that no time is lost in securing that mandate's fulfilment. There is now something at stake of infinitely more importance than any financial policy. That issue is self government by the people.

The Daily Telegraph says the vote taken on an important policy Bill in the Upper House leaves Government no alternative but to appeal to the country. Government are reported to contemplate prorogation for opo or two months, during •which time a number of appointments to the Oouneil will be made, and then holding a new session. Such policy, the Telegraph says, is one of petty paltering with public opinion. The present moment is one of white heat. Mr Reid has the first strike, and it will probably be the last opportunity of hia political life time. A dissolution to-morrow would enable him to sweep the country from end to end, and come back with * majority unparalleled in Australian politico. If ha fails to take advantage of that opportunity, he will fritter away chances to a degree that will involve a future political catastrophe.

The Winton Murder Charges.

FOUND OUIK.TV

iNYEBCAitGUL, June 20 This afternoon the Crown Prosecutor addressed the jury in the Dean charge of infant murder, and Mr Hanlon followed for the defenoe, calling no witnesses. Counsel spoke for about ninety mfnutes each, and at the conclusion of their addresses his Honor aaid that he would defer summing up till the following morning, considering that the jury had had a sufficiently trying day. The Court was crowded during the afternoon, within and without the barrier, women, of whom a large number were present, having to be content with standing room. Mr Hanlon's line of defence was that the death of Dorothy Edith Cirter was the result of misadventure, accused having given her an overdose of laudanum. ' There might have been culpable negligence,' and if the jiury were of that opinion they might return a verdict of manslaughter, but the evidence, he contended, did not justify the grayed finding of wilful murder. ; The .jury, he said, had! n.othing to do with the cause of the death of Eva Hornsby ; that was for another jury to deal with. The death of that child, he submitted, was caused by suffocation through vomiting millf giv^n by Mrs Hornsby. Invercargill, Juno 21

ASHBURTON MARKETS,

Messrs Friedlander and Co. report upon the live stock market for the week ending June 12 a3 follows: —The weather a few days previous to the sale on Tuesday at Tinwald left very little hope of any ftock coming forward for that day's sale How ever, 2919 sheep and 15 cattle were penned The attendance was small, but a good clear ance was effected. In the butchers' pern were some good crossbred ewci and merinos, which met with warm competition by the trade, ani every line was disposed of at last week's rates. In store sheep, the entry contained one lino of good hoggets, which sold at 7s "id. The balance was made up of medium to very good two-tooth sheep ior turnipin^, a-'d two or three small linos of freezing"sheep The sale in this class of sock did not, open well, buyers evidently being afraid to operate, on account of the unsettled weatli r ; but later on they pur chased moro frce'y, and nearly all lines pusscd io at first, changed owners later on. 0:r entries for tho day were—l 762 sheep t.nd * f«-w cattle, for which we realised th° following prices : - 84 rat crossbred ewes 10j, 151 jtnall inferior two-tooth fn 91, 354 ctossbred two-tooths 7s s<l, 310 forward two tooths 9s Q1; 620, 9s 4rt j 201, 10s..Ud. A very snuvll entry of be< f —only four head, and very light—whs disposed of at full values, and a few springers of inferior sorts did not, meet with much enquiry. Pigs were v< ry difficult to quit.
