In the first place I think we may sincerely congratulate flangial condition of the Colony as set forth Tour Ercallaney on the very satisfactory in the estimates now before us. Of course, as we are aware and

one point to which I particularly wish to direct attention. I refer to the question, of the military contribution. This was a very old. and burning question

as long ago as the sixties, when one of my prosessors in this Colony first resisted the imposition of the military con- trilation by the Home Government upon this Colony. And sincs then the same gentleman has spoken against it in the House of Coma- mons. Since then it bas been repastedly discussed and mecial members have re peatedly complained of the excisive amount which we are called upon to pay by means of this military eontribution. We are aware that the presne of a garrison adds to our prosperity, but the garrison is not maintained for our pur poses but for imperial needs and not entirely for the banaft of the Colony. We do not consider should he called upon to contribute one-fifth of that because we happen to be a brown colony we

The question of the military contelbation is one which deserves consideration at an early date, I for one think and have always susintained that it is correct that the Colony should contribute something towards the imperial troops but, for small colony the sum of $1,200,000, ss is the amount of our contribution this year, in under the sad of military contribution, with excessiva.
