His. Excellency the Governor in for warding this Memorandum very strongly supported it on all points, except as to the municipal character of any portion of the Colonial Revenue. As regards this matter, he simply puts, it that, in his opinion, the position taken up by the memorialists is untenable. Curiously enough, he and his Colonial Secretary were the very first to raise this question and to claim that a very considerable portion of the general revenue should be exempted from the military tax because It was in its nature essentially municipal. It seems strange that his opinions should have undergone so considerable the 28th August, 1895, the date of his a variation in the interval between
