The Estimates came up\nin Committee, when Mr. Beaven showed\nvery plainly that their calculations for a\nsurplus were perteetly illusory. Of course\naueh a truthful description of their quackery\nwas not to be permitted, and several speeches from Smithe and the jovial eight resulted, ftiundry clauses were passed, of course ;\nany attempt to interfere w^h the arrangements of Government w%s too absurd.,\nReckless extravagance or unjust prqf<*\u00C2\u00A3pce\noould jiotfcbe called by these names eo long\nas the honest John Government controlled\nthe jovial eight. A question arose about\nthe Port Simpson land grab, which, to listen\nto the Government and their partisans, waa\nno grab at all^but a perft-ctjy legitimate\ntransaction. We need hardly say that some\nbold fibs were told by the Oovernment party.\nIn reply to Mr. John, Mr. Smithe said they\nwere going; to erect a lock-up \it t*Jew Westminster tins year and a Provincial gaol at\nVictoria next year. _Jdr. jBeaven showed\n*ery clearly that our Government was taking $40,000 ont of the Dominion Government for the Dry Doclf, piore tlian they\nwere entitled to ; but as that waa ..none of\nhis business, honest John weq\u00C2\u00A3 after him, to\nthe great delight of the jov ial eight. A t, the\nevening session the estimates w-%ro fqrtjier\nconsidered, and some unimportant business\nwound up the sitting. In discussing the\ngrant to Caspar Phair it was clearly shown\nthat money was being paid to oblige political supporters. In order to tickle tbe hon-\nsst John Government. Mr. Dunsmuir says\nsomething now and then, generally on matters that he knows nothing about Honest\nJohn, sure in his jovial majority, made use\nof language towards Mr. Beaven which\nbrought out his vulgarity in flaming colors.\nWhen Mr. Beaven would have replied, the\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2-\"'hole Governmtiit.combincd with tne hearty\nco-operation of the jovial eight, niadea horrible hubbub.
