Taxation on piopei ty should be all expended by local bodies on lot.il works, 50 that the objects of politieans should not be confined to roads and bridges. Dv Gr.ice spoke in the highest terms of the administrative s 1 rviccs of the Minister of Lands, and supported the perpetual leasing. Half-a-niilhon a-year for education was far more than we could afford, and should be reduced by one-half. Piivate schools should be encouraged.
