suppression of the opium revenue.
I do not propose to go into the merits or otherwise of the opium question, I only desire to call the attention of the House to hardships indicted owing to decisions of this House.
Revenue from opium has been, a source of inecmo aver since the place was taken, and is just as proper a source of income as ink, in fact, both drink and opium are things calling for Government control, and if a good stiff tax is laid on them the can sumption tends to diminish. I wish to point out, that, in the position we are now considering, this House makes the laws and the Colony pays the bill. I am sure the House does not wish to lay itself open to the charge of interfering injuriously with an unrepresented place. *
