S. O. AVOOD Legislative Assembly, Toronto, 5th February, 1879. Mr. Speaker, — I have just received intimation that the Statement of Receipts and Expenditure;^ for the year 1878 will be delivered to the House some time this afternoon — certainly before six o'clock — and I may here remark that, although these Receipts and Expenditure State- ments have always been pretty full, I am aware that there has been a feeling on the part of the House generally that it would perliaps be more desirable — perhaps more in the public interests — if we could have the Accounts in detail brought down during tlie Session, and I may state, Sir, that the Government have come to the conclusion that either by increased assistance or otherwise they will make such arrangements as will provide that in future the Public Accounts each year will be brought down at the ensuing Session of Parliament. Without taking up the time of the House with any preliminary i-emarks referring to the Receipts and Expenditures, I will simply state what the RECEIPTS have been for the past year. On account of Subsidy we received $1,116,872.80; on account of Specific Grant $80,000; on account of Interest on Special Funds $136,696.62, making a total of $1,333,569.42. The Territorial Revenue has been as follows: — Special Funds, Clergy Lands, $28,988.73; Common School Lands, $55,905.53; Grammar School Lands, $9,487.22 ; Crown Lands Revenue, $62,452.77; Woods and Forests, $284,816.62; Casual Fees, etc., $3,540.75— in all, for Ter- /'■!*, fi.Vi' ; '■•.:(■ ■V'Ar \y: ■■■ ■ 4 FINANCIAL STATEMENT OP ritorial Revenue, |445,191.62.

The Interest on Investments has been $156,251.46; on account of Education Revenue, $51,880.91; on License Fund account, $75,529.85; on account of Law Stamps, $66,291.82; on account of Fines, Fees, and Forfeitures, being what is known as Casual Revenue, $20,292.85; on account of Algoma Taxes, $581.04; Agricultural Farm, Mimico, $5,138.46; Settlers' Homestead Fund, on account of repayments, $521.91; on account of Drainage Assessment, $11,883.40; on account of Municipal Loan Fund, $10,288.82; Central Prison, Insurance on buildings de- stroyed by fire, $9,000, making a total of $2,254,421.32.

I am aware that in the last few months there has been some difference of opinion, and of late there has been advanced what might be called a very novel theory, and that is, Sir, that a man cannot have any capital unless he borrows it ; that a nation call have no capital account unless the money is borrowed ; — that at Ottawa, where public moneys are spent in public buildings, upon rail- ways, canals and so forth, there it is proper to have a capital account, i ( THE HON.

Mr. Speaktu", I have no hesitation in characterising this theory as not only unfair, but childish and ridicu- lous. I think I may be allowed, Sir, to refer for a moment to the pro- position just mentionut chargeable against tlu^ surplus of the Province. Every Financial State- ment made by them bears out the one fact, that they have treated the distribution of tlie surplus as being a liability and deducted it from the assets for the purpose of showing the amount of surplus on hand. One can hardly undca-stand how any person professing to be an accountant couUl take the ground that the distribution of $3,000,000 of our surplus money, known as the Surplus Distribution Fund, should b(' charged against the ordinaiy expenses of the year with the view of shewing a deficit. (Hear, hear). But, Mr. Speakei*,! will refer to another matter, and that is, the Railway Aid Fund. By turning to page 12 of the Statutes of 1870-1, Cap. 2, Sec. 1, the following words will be found; " For the purpose aforesaid the sum of one million five hundred thousand " dollars (!^ 1,500,000) shall be set apart from and out of the Consolidat- " ed Revenue Fund of this Province, and form a fund to be designated " and known as the Railway Fund." In the Statutes of 1871-2, page IG, Cap. 24, Sec, 1, these words will be found : — " The sum of four hun- " dred thousand dollars (.$400,000) shall be set apart from and out of " the Consolidated Revenue Fund of the Province, and shall be added to " and form part of the fund designated and known as the Railway Fund, " established under the Act in aid of Railways." Now, liere are two separate Acts setting apart sums of money from and out of the Con"oli- dated Revenue Fund, and to be known as funds for a certain designated purpose, and still there are those who claim that the payments upon these Railway Funds should be charged against the ordinary expenses of the year, with the view of shewing a deficit. The untenableuess of that S FINANCIAL STATEMENT OF s;. ' l<: ^- ■ ">■' ■ etter for me now to make the same statement and divide the Connnon School Fund just as I did last year if I wished to present to this House a larger surplus than we really possess, for while we might claim from the Dominion Govern- ment the amount of the Land Improvement Fund, we must not forget that the moment t hat money comes into our hands we nmst hand it over to the Municipalities, and therefore we treat that sum as a liability. This makes the total of Special or Trust Funds with the Dominion of Canada $2,786,418.63. Then the value of the Library share assigned to Ontario as per Award is $105,541 ; balance due on account of Municipal Loan Fund debts, $144,1.35.43 ; balance due from the Mechanics' Insti- tute, Toronto, on account of the purchase money of the property, $19,000 : due on account of sale of lands at Mimico, $6,305 ; due from Credit Valley Railway for land sold for railway purposes as per award of Pro- vincial Valuator's, $9,012.50; cash balances in Banks, $39,784.57, mak- ing, a total of $5,842,748.94. \ m;/.

Mr. Meredith. — Are they both settled by the Award 'i Mr. Wood, — Both by the Award. Now the collections, as I said before, on account of lands sold between the 14th June, 1853, and 6th March, 1861, amounted to $673,834.42 ; less 6 per cent, cost of management, $40,430.06 ; one-fourth, or 25 per cent., for Land Im- provement Fund, being equal to $165,958.60. Mr. Scott. — Is the 25 per cent, to be deducted from the $673,- 834.42? Mr. Wood. — -That is a moot point, and one which has not yet been determined. It is said that we should first deduct this 6 per cent, for management, ar.d from the balance take the 25 per cent. ; but the set- tlex's claim that they are entitled to one-fourth before the 6 per cent, is taken off. I have taken the entire sum of $206,388.66 off the total ,900,000 ; -aving still ive, as last nations for tit paid to account of ,vay Grants bion Fund, 964,622.72, ; then there nount made stween 14th explain that nmon School ;he Land Im- li were made ad that from 6th March, jt of raanage- i Province of bain what the ;h June, 1853, )een since the rd] bions, as I said 1853, and 6th cent, cost of for Land Im- :roin the $673,- las not yet been 6 per cent, for ^t. ; but the set- le 6 per cent, is ,66 off the total THK HON, S.

Is'.' I .. J Mr. Lauder. — What is the surplus without the Trust Funds 1 Mr. Wood. — I have not the figures. Now, Mr. Speaker, I pro- pose to give a statement of the ESTIMATED RECEIPTS for the year, and Hon. Members will notice that we are not estimating so large a sum as we did last year — that in fact, our estimate is very much lower. There are certain receipts which we can safely calculate upon, be- cause they are fixed ; it requires no skill to estimate them, because they are derived from certain funds, which bear a certain interest which invariably comes to the Province, and there are certain Funds which are directed to be paid under the terms of Confederation. Now we estimate as Subsidy, $1,116,872.80; as Specific Grant, $80,000; as Interest on Special Funds, $136,696.62, making a total of $1,333,569.42. I may say to the House that of this wu receive one-half every six months; it is a fixed item. Then from Crown Lands, or Territorial Revenue we expect to receive — for Crown Lands, $60,000 ; for Clergy Lands, $30,000; for Common School Lands, $55,000; for Grammar School Lands, $8,000; for Woods and Forests, $365,000, or in all, $518,000. The Public Institutions Revenue we estimate as follows: — Lunatic Asylum, Toronto, $35,000 London Asylum, $7,000 ; King- ston Asylum, $2,000; Hamilton Asylum,$l,000; Orillia Asylum, $1,000; Reformatory, Penetanguishene, $5,000; Deaf and Dumb Institution, Belleville, $1,000; Central Prison, $30,000. I may state so far as the Asylum at Toronto is concerned, that we have estimated some $5,000 or $6,000 more than last year, but we are constantly receiving there an increased number of paying patients, and the extra accommodation we are now able to provide at Hamilton, London, and other places, will enable us to grant the applications now made.

Mr. Meredith. — Were there any estimates for goods sold to Mr. Eddy? Mr. Wood. — No, the only goods we have taken credit for were those burnt at the lire. Then the Education revenue we estimate at $55,000 : Interest on Investments, $150,000 ; Casual Kevenue, $20,000; License Fund, $75,000; Algoma Taxes, $2,500; Law Stamps, $66,000; Drainage Assessment Fund, $25,000; Agricultural Farm, Mimico, $1,500; Sale of Revised Statutes, $1,000; Municipal Loan Fund, $40,000 ; Mechanics' Institute, Toronto, $19,000, making a total of $2,388,569.42. estimating so is very much late upon, he- hem, because tain interest ;ertain Funds -ration.

Now, Mr. Speaker, I do not know that it is necessary for me to make any lengthened remarks with reference to the Estimates, which have been in the hands of Hon. Members since yesterday. I do not know that there is anything particularly new or striking in them, or anything that re- quires an explanation. 1 may simply state that there are DECREASES IN THE ESTIMATES this year as compared with last year — (hear, hear). It will be found that there is a decrease in Civil Government of $3,050; in Legislation of some $29,100, ^^'hich is principally in the Sessional Allow- ance (loud applase) ; and I may be permitted to remark, Mr. Speaker, that, as in raising this allowance from $600 to $800 per head, we had the co-operation of Hon. Members opposite, now that we have decided to reduce it, I hope that we shall receive their co-operation once more. (Hear, hear.) The decrease in the Administration of Justice is $14,043, piincipally in the item of aid to Counties. Under the head of Educa- tion there is a reduction of $27,880, being made up of decreases as fol- lows: — On account of Departmental Examinations, $4,000; Training of Teachers, $3,200; Maps and Apparatus, $13,000, and in Miscellaneous, $6,000. Mr. Meredith. — Is that an actual saving'! Mr. Wood. — In one sense it may be called so. There is no doubt, so far as Departmental Examinations and Training of Teachers are con- cerned, it is a saving. Now, Mr. Speaker, with reference to Immi- gration, we find a decrease of $10,500. In Public Buildings, owing to THE HON. S. C.

We have had to make some few increases in tlie Estimates — for instance, in the Public Institutions maintenance, whicli is attributable not to any increase in the cost of kee|)ing the inmates, because the cost is less per inmate, owing to the reduced price of provi- sions; but it is altogeth(>r owing to the increased number of inmates, and consequent largt;r expenditure. However, the increase is only some $9,000. Mu. Mkkeditil— How does the Hon. gentleman account for the decrease in the cost of fuel? Mk. Wood. — Last winter, if the Hon. gentleman will recollect, was a very mild one and in a great many IiiStitutions we had a stock of fuel on hand at tlie end of the year, and then, again, the price is very low, indeed, now. The item of Agriculture and Arts, etc., is increased by the sum of $3,400, and that is principally owing to the increased number of Mechanics' Institutes. RECAPITULATION.

I do not i)ropose to take up the (piestion year by y(!ar, but what I do say is that it is a very propter subject for discussion, very proper under present circumstances, in \ iew of th(! fact of tliei'o liaving been a large increase in the exiienditure since tlu; Tleform Party came into power, and of the fact of this being the last Session of the present (xovernment. (Loud laughtei-). I am very glad that I have been able, by a slip of the tongue, to raise a laugh, because \ have seen nothing l)ut long faces opposite for some time. What I intended to say was that this is the last Session of the present I'ltrliauuut, and it is proper to discuss what the increases have l»een, and also whether they have been in a })roper direction and in thi' interests of tlu; country. Vor this purpose it will be necessaiy for us to pick out some years by which we shall be able to make a proper comparison, and I think Ifon. gentle- men opposite^ will admit that in selecting the years 1871 and 1S7S, they, at least, will have no cause to complain — they at least will not say that we hav(! taken so far as they are concerned an inifortunate year or that we have taken so far as we are concerned a foitunatif year. I think, Mr. Speaker, the proper thing to do is to counnenct! at this Chamber, for the legislative e.vpenses in connection with this House are perhaps more directly under th(^ joint control of the Hon. Members on both sides than any other Department under (lovernment. You, Sir, are an otHcer of this House; the (/lerk of the Houso, the messengers, page.s and all the employees surrounding you, ai'e supposed to be; under the joint control of the House. Now in 1871 the cost of LEGISLATION was $94,177; in 1878 it was $126,463, the increase has been — for salaries, $2,575, part of which may be accounted for l>y the fact that in 1871 the salary of the Speaker does not appear in the Public Accounts under the head of Salaries but is charged to Legislation. Then the sala- ries of pages, mes.sengers, etc., have increased by $.3,8.31, and it will be within the recollection of Hon. Members of this House that the salaries of messengers and pages were increased by the joint consent and expres- sion of the House. Then we have stationery, printing, etc., increased TIIK HON'. S. (". WOOD. 19 I have seen iiitendeil to say ,)ir)if, and it is 1 wheth<'r they e country. For years hy which „k iron, senth- and 1S7S, they, ill not say that ate year or that year. I thinh, t this Chamher, )us(> are perhaps ■mbers on both You, Sir, are an ness(Mi,!:,'ers, pa.i,'es to l»e under the ,e has been — for y the fact that in Public Accounts u. Then the sala- 831, audit will be se that the salaries onsent and expres- bing, etc., increased by .S7,'U6. Tlie reason or explanation of tliat is that more returns were brought down and iirintt'd; the reports were njore voluminous, and so far as the Sessional Pajjcrs are concerned, in IS71 there were only two and in 1H7(^ tliei-e were four. Anotlier item of increase is on !f2,l.'16 ao- count of Library; the answer to that, Mr. Speaker, is sim]»ly that more books were j)urchaseil. But tin; great increasfi in connection with legis- lation is that of indemnity to Mendters, wliicli amounted to .S.'5I{,;}G1, and I would usk Hon. gentlemen oj)posite 1 windd ask Hon. gentlemen on this side of tlie House wlietlier with I'cgai'd to that increase (l)eside which the other increase in legi.slation is a mere bagatelle), we have not had and ought still to have, a joint re.sponsiltility ? Wliether tliat increase was right or wrong, I do not i)i-opose to discu.ss now; T simply .say that, in my opinion, the Sessional allowance was not too large. But we are here to represent the people ; the matter is one which is personal to ourselves, and w(! cannot afford to vote oui-selves an amount, even if a larg(^ majority of the people^ think we are entitled to it, when a minority objects; but whether that inci'eas(^ was rigiit or wrong, tliere should be manliness enough on the; floor of this Hou.se for every IVEember, be he Kefonnei- or Conservative^, to say: "I was jointly responsible; whatever has been done shoultl not be used to discredit or damage the Keform Uovernmeiit, which the Members supported in that act." Now, Sir, of that whole increase, which I have shewn as principally on ac- count of the Sessional allowance, the oidy item obj(>cted to on the floor of this House was the sum of $500 voted to your predecessor, so that if the increase was not justifiable, if it was not in the interests of the Province, then, so far as legislation is concerned, all parties are respon- sible for it. Mr. Lauder. ^ — No, no. Mr. Wood. — I admit, Mr. Speaker, that there are three clas,ses in this House — there are those who applied for this increase, there are those who — Mr. L.vudkr. — I don't refer to the indemnity at all — the hon. gentleman is di.scussing the question of joint liability; his view is quite wrong. The Goverrnnent are responsible for every cent expended. Mr. Wood. — I may say that this increase accounts for more than the difference in the expenditures of 1871 and 1878. In 1871 there was a large amount paid for election expenses, which do not appear in 1878. My reference was to the items of increase. 20 ,.,SANr..M.

I am aware that there is a diversity of opinion as to this on both sides of the House, but I would point out the fact that in 1871 we expended $29,712.56, and in 1878 $31,975.09, or an increase of $2,262.53. This increase is more than accounted for by the charge for the carriage of immigrants from Quebec in 1878, being $7,139.32, and nothing in 1871, and the reduction of ocean passages, amounting to $3,181.13. Now I may .state that the carriage of immigrants from Quebec is in accordance with the agreement made with the Dominion Government. I may also state for the infor- mation of the House what number of inunigrants left the British Islands in 1871 and in 1878 respectively, and I may here remark that a large number of immigrants will necessarily find their way here whether they are assisted or not, and if no money Avere expended either in assisted passages or in forwarding immigrants from Quebec to Ontario or in paying their railway fares to the diflTereut sections of this Province where they might intend settling, then we Avould be able to say that the cost per liead was nothing, and in fact that the year that such a policy was carried out was the cheape.st year for immigration purposes that we could have.

The ij- crease in the aid to Hospitals and Charities is considerable, being $40,260 in 1871, as against $70,673.19 in 1878— an increase of $30,413.19; but I am not aware, Sir, that there is any fault to find with the increase in that direction.

Most of the InstitutioiLs in th(! United States have a large number of inmates. In the State Asylum at Napa, Cal. the cost is .$272.80 ; in the .state Asylum at Madi- son, Wi.s., it is $259.33; in the State Asylum at Kalamazoo, Mich., !B253.24 ; in the State Asylum at Danville Pennsylvania, !|?233.44 ; and in the State A.sylums of Massachusetts, the; cost is respectively .$195, .$189.28, and 81 7.').38. Now I think, Mr Speaker, that so far as the maint(niance of our Lunatic Asylums is concerned, tliat is pretty fair evi- dence that they are economically managed. The number of pupils in the Institution for the Deaf and Dumb, Belleville, in 1871 was 107, and 277 in 1878, and the cost of maintenance was $20,718.06 in 1871, and $37,- 857.41 in 1878. The nund)er of per.sons confined in the Reformatory in 1871 was 155, and in 1878, 19G; while the cost of maintenance va 1871 was $21,710, and in 1878 $27,509.70. Now I wish to call the atten- tion of the House to certain Institutions which were notin existence inl871 but which now come under the head of Puldic Institutions Maintenance. There is the Asylum for Idiots at Orillia, the cost of which last year amount- ed to .$19,742.83. Then comes the Lunatic Asylum at Hamilton, costing $31, 80 1.08 in 1878; the Agricultural College atGuelph,costing$21, 968.93; tlie Institution for the Blind, Brantford, being an expense of .$28,099.08; the Central Prison, Toronto, including stock for industries, $80, 110.03; the School of Practical Science, .$1,890.49. Now these institutions which I have mentioned are the ones which were not in existence in 1871, and there- fore do not form part of the exjienditure of that year. I may here make a few .short statements with reference to the sy.stem pursued in purchasing supplies for these Institutions, for that also forms part of the financial o]K'rations connected with their maintenance, and a very import- ant one. Now the cost of maintenance of our Lunatic A.sylums was, from the 1st Oct. 1877 (I am now quoting from the Re- port of the Inspector), .$270,101, including .salaries. Of this amount the goods and supplies bought under the contract system, by ten- der, anu)uut(!d to $105,379; services for which tenders could not be asked, such as gas, repairs, amusements, &c., $18,108; dry-goods, groceries, and supplies purchased in open market $04,429; salaries and wages, $82,185, making up the total of $270,161. 32 FINANCIAL STATEMENT OF HECAPITULATION.

But, Sir, never in the history of Ontario until now has any Government, or any Head of a Government, or any Inspector or Board of Inspectors, been able to comply with the d(>mands for admission into our Asylums. The history of insanity in tliis Province lias been that a certain number of patients were able to be accommodated in the Asylums, then all full ; a certain number in our Gaols more or less well cared for, so far as circumstances would admit, and a certain number in private houses for whom no room could be found in the Asylums. But, Sir, I am proud to be able to an- nounce that although we have a larger number under accommodation tlian we have ever had before, we have yet provision for 488 more (hear, hear) — that we have arrived at a period in the history of Ontario when we can say that we have made ample provision for years to come for these unfortunates. In Toronto we have 676 and room for no more — the place is full. In London Ave have 720 and room for 180 more. In Kingston we have 420 and room for 8 more, and in Hamilton only 200, with room for 300 more, from which it will be seen that^it will be soma yearu to \ :,'i ll i'i!;i 34 FINANCIAL STATKMKNT OF CDine iH'forc we rtHjuin- to mak«» any larger grant for tlic further accoin- III •ilation of the hmaticH, deaf and dumb, and blind of tluH Province.

I have not time to go into that now, l)ut while I ask the House on that account to allow me to pass it by, I ajjfain admit that it is well worthy of discussion. But tliere is one item which I do j)ropos(^ to c^all tlie attention of the l!>06 1,707 Orders iti Council 237 540 I have, now Mr. Speaker, gone through all the items of Civil Gov- ernment so far as salaries are concerned, and I have endeavoured to give the House, as far as possible, a somewhat correct and intelligent idea of the iiicrease in the work. But, Sir, it must not be forgotten that this Uovernment has had a great deal of work to do in distributing money to the people, and a great deal has devolved upon us in seeing that that money was distributed in the right direction, properly and fairly.

Wood. — It has been expended for the benefit of the people of Ontario, and I have often lieard it said that each ininii;i,'rant was worth $1,000 to the country. (Laugliter). Mr. Speaker, I had intended to have referred, but I find that I shall not ]iave the drainage of tlunr farms. We hav(? also invested large sums of mon(!y in opening up our back country where the immigrants coming here from the old country can settle, or which the sons of our farmers who are seeking homesteads in the north can find access to and egress from by naeans of the roads we have made. The large sum I have mentioned as having been expended for Colonization Iloads (somewJiere in the neighbourhood of three quarters of a million of iloUar.s), proves that tht; inter(\sts of the back counti-y Iwvve receivcKl every consideration at the hands of the Mowat Administration. But, Sir, we have not stopped there; the policy of the Covcrnnient has been not only so far as Colonization Roads, jVgriculture and Arts hyv coueernod — we have also distributed through- (»ut the length and breadth of the land among the people of this Provinee some three millions of dollars, and the result has been the erection of school-housiiS, of a large number of town halls, the making of many miles of road, and the wiping out of a large amount of debt — (I gave 48 KFNANCIAL STATKMKNT OF B the (letrtilH la.st yonr.) Mut, Sir, in addition to that wo have had much to do ill th(! iiiaiiit('iiaiif(f (»f our I'uhlic IiistitutioiiH in a liiyh statt! uf efficiency, in looking,' after the dciaf and dunih, tlu! hlind, and the in- sane—those persons who liav(! a direct ehvini on the (lovernnient. So far as our Institutictns are conceriied, the Mowat Administration has certainly fulfilled its mission. We have provided all the Asylum accommodation necessary, and all that will bo nec'ded foi- some years to conu; in that direction. Then, Mr. Speaker, it will be admitted tliat wherever any Municipality in the Province of Ontario, wherever any Town, or County or Township has voted sums of money to any llailway Company in whi«;h they were inter- ested, tlui (Companies have invariably received the most liberal aid at tlu! hands of the (Jovernment in cases when; they were justly entitled to the same. In fact, Mr. Speaker, 1 b(;lieve that, {^o wliere you will, there is no part of the Province of Ontario where the hand of the Government and the liberality they liave exercised cannot be .seen in the development of the country. Indeed, it may be .said fairly and I think without fear of contradiction, that in no country in the world has the same liberal aiil betMi giviMi by the Government of the day towards assisting railways and in developing its resources as in the Province of Ontario by the Mowat Administration. A word or two more and I liave done. Tlio policy of the Goverinnent of which the Hon. Mr. Mowat is Premier, has been not only liberal, but at the same time economical. I think wo. shall in the future see — I think the people of Ontario will .see — and that hi.story will record the fact, that the policy of the Hon. Oliver Mowat, while being economical, has been abrea.st of the age. It has lieen bold, gen- erous, lilieral — in accordance with the genius and the history of the Reform Party, and in accordance with the reijuironients of the Province. (Applau.se.) I move, Mr. Speaker, that you do now leave the chair. !r: It !) had much gh Htato of and the in- lIlKMlt.
